The sheeny junk man who was seen whipping his horses on Saturday because they were unable to draw a heavy load of scrap iron to the depot had better be on his guard.

One hilltop has been turned in the great drive for good roads in Minnesota. The legislature, with commendable alacrity, passed the bill authorizing the people of the state to vote on the constitutional amendment which sets in motion the machinery for the building of 6,000 miles of hardsurfaced trunk highways throughout the state. Now comes the task of educating the people of Minnesota to the meaning of the amendment, for, as one of the' leaders of the movement "We have not found a man who understands the situation who does not favor? the amendment." This being ihe case, the problem of good roads in Minnesota reduces to the proposition of merely getting every man in Minnesota to understand it. For this very purpose an organization has been formed under the name of Minnesota Highwny Improvement association, with Senator McGarry of Walker as president and Harry G. Davis, Mr.

Babcock's chief lieutenant, working for the amendment as secretary. "It will be the purpose of the organization," says Mr. Davis, "to see that every voter in the state has an opportunity to obtain full information concerning the plan." To the Minnesota Highway Improvement association we wish speed and success. It has a task commensurate in magnitude with the noble conception of pulling a great state out of the mud.St. Paul Dispatch.

Standard Grades for Oats. Official standards for oats under the United States grain standards act have been established by the secretary of agriculture, effective June 16, 1919, when the new crop movement begins, according to announcements of the bureau of markets. After that time all oats moving in interstate commerce will be graded according to these federal standards by licensed inspectors, whose work will be supervised by the department of agriculture, as in the case of official grain standards for wheat and shelled corn. The new standards for oats provide for four numbered grades and a sample grade, the factors used for grading being: Test weight per bushel minimum percentages for sound cultivated oats and minimum requirements for heat-damaged (oats or other grains), foreign material, wild oats, and other colors, cultivated and wild oats. No provision is made in the new standards for dockage, but it is said to be not at all unlikely that they will be placed on a dockoge basis at some future date.
