In spite of all this, however, there is need-of a transportation program that shall include not only highways but railways too, but of railways we can speak later. at program should show the following :-- x Best types of highway for certain classes and amount of c. 2. Recommendations as to best use of various road materials. 3. Methods of drainage building, shape of road, ete. 4. Methods of maintenanee--cheapest and mogt effective. * The proper use of the information which this progam would supply should become compulsory. There is no reason why John Smith, Bell, Jones or Harry Brown should waste money year after year building roads that are poorer than they could be made with |s the same expenditure of money. There is a right way and a wrong way of doing things and the Each pathmaster should be given directions as to how to build the particular type of road needed for his beat, and how to use to the best advantage the road material available. He should be given particular instructions as to the width of road, and as to the height to which a road can be rounded up. He should be given to under- stand thatet is quite as wrong to spend all 'his time and money in building and leave none for maintenance as it would be to spend all his money and time in seeding and leave none for harvest. ood roads are generally the ones that receive the best main- tenance. 7 The point that needs to be emphasized most is that the proper method of building and maintenance of roads should be compulsory. Naturally that proper method will not always be the same. Volumes of traffic will differ, available road materials will differ, subsoils will differ, etc. But these differences are no excuse for plowing mud into the middle of the roadway, or rounding up a road so that it looks like a windrow of hay, or leaving ruts that are deep enough to let a car nearly to the axles. There should be some proper system, and it should net depend upon.the whim of the individual pathmaster.

Tan Dunelm has an enthusiastic] . article in the Ontario Reformer regarding the work of Mr. L. O. Clifford, M.P. for South Ontario, Among other things Mr. Dunelm says :-- "Mr. Clifford was seldom heard in the Green Chamber, chiefly for the reason that he was on four committees of the House, and two of these were sitting almost night and day while the House was in session. Probably the most difficult work which he had to tackle during. the ses- sion was that whieh fell to his lot as a member of the Special Committee on Pensions, Soldiers' Re-establishment and Land Set- tlement. The result of that com- mittee's work has already been translated into legislation and because the members of that committee went about their work determined to do all in their power to improve the returned soldiers' conditions, the report they brought in was one of the most comprehensive tabled by the Pensions Committee since this question became pressing. In addition to the hundreds of individual cases brought before the committee for review, the members also had to deal with the Maxwell - MacNeil pension board charges, in which they re- commended a Royal Commission to investigate. .Mr Clifford, like several other members, had a number of cases of men in his own constituency to bring before the committee, and on these and other matters placed in his hands he worked assiduously. The Agriculture Committee, which had as its chief problem, the creation of the Canadian Wheat Board also claimed Mr. Clifford as a member. At any time he was free of the Pensions Committee he was a regular at- tendant at the Agriculture Com- mittee where there were also questions involved affecting east- ern farmers. The interests of the West were bound up in the Wheat Board proposal, and be- cause of -that fact it was neces- sary that Mr. Clifford and other eastern members keep in touch with developments and safeguard the interests of the eastern farm- ers, millers and others. Every member while in Otta- wa also has an unlimited number of departmental matters requir- ing attention during the time he is in the Capital for the session. The member for South Ontario I was no exception to the rule, and in the morning before his com- mittee started work it was not unusual to find him working in one or another of the departments adjusting matters at the request of his constituents." PICKERING Mr. Ashley, of Belleville, was riding a motor cycle along the Kingston Highway, near Picker- ing and seemed to lose control f his machine. Mr. Fleming's uk was moving in the opposite direction, and the cyclist ran right into the car, being thrown ; ing the breaking of both his legs two ribs. rave fears were > Sutartained as to Mr. Ashley's ry.

CORBMAN. Forest Fires A few weeks ago the'Saturday Evening Post published a str rong article on the recklessness of Sun- day picnic parties, who go out from cities into country districts and steal ov.destroy wantonly. - There is another class of people who need watching, but they should be induced to watch them- selves. These people are the campers-and forest travellers; particularly cigarettte users. A great many forest fires are due to the carelessness of tobacco users. We have reached a stage in our national history when we can no longer afford to destroy our for- ests by. fire. Indeed, not only should this be carefully avoided; but new forests should be plant- ed--the sooner the better: Three teams participated in the baseball tournament held on the Fair Grounds on Wednesday of last week, Bowmanville, Stouff- ville and Port Perry. Stouffville defeated Bowman- ville 16-4 in the first game. The result was never in doubt. Dales hit a Rome run early in the game and Murchison, Muston and Smith did some heavy batting. Bow- manville could not bring out their regular team and deserve credit for coming. The second game was close and well played, Port Perry winning, the score being 8-7. Raines pitched splendidly and most all Stouffville's runs were directly or indirectly due to errors. Raines struck out Murchison and Ware in the last innings and had ten strike-outs altogether.
