Editor Glacier: Will you give me apace to blow my bugle regarding the proposition of having one road super visor for the county in the place of the many we have. Looking at it from one angle it might be a move in the right direction, but from another it doesn't look so good. If a competent road builder was given the position and had absolute control of all tbe road construction it might be a business proposition, but under the present con ditions it would be a failure with a big F. Under our present law the county court has the last say, and as a rule they say it. Tbe county courts, the state over, know but little more about road building than a bog knows about a holiday. Our county court is no ex ception to the rule. We have samples of their work all over the county. The East Side grade is one; their refusal to take over the Highway and main tain it is another, and a two or three thousand dollar piece of road that is being built at Winans that hasn't any way to get onto it from either end, only mud; roads, is another, to say nothing about what they do not do that they ought to do. We have some good road supervisors in the county good road builders. We have one In Frank ton. But they are all handicapped by the "higherupB." And so would the county supervisor be. Better change our laws covering those points before making any changes tbBt might be jumping out of tbe frying pan into the fire. We tried the county supervieor proposition once and it was a failure. About the only thing that it accom plished was the recall and that could happen again very easily. One solution of the problem would be to start from Hood River, as all roads meet there, and build what we did build good. In time the eounty would be covered and then if a patrol system were adopted that would look after the little ills there would be but few big ones. This cannot be ;done under the present system and the other plan has been tried and found lacking. Friends of good roads in this county, think this over by Saturday. M. R. Noble. Water Investigation Made Percy A. Cupper, an assistant state engineer, has been here making ready for an exhaustive investigation of the watershed of the Hood River valley. Mr. Cupper comes here for the State Water Board, to which the Supreme Court recently refereed the case of the Oregon Lumber Co. vs. the East Fork Irrigation District, a suit involving tbe waters of the East Fork. When the case is again taken up, however, it is expected that all rights of the watershed will be adjudicated. Butter wrappers at this office. "Divvy Up!" r "Butter-Kist" Pop Corn is so crisp, fresh and pure, if 8 almost too good to share. The very choicest, seasoned pop corn, popped just right and the excess moisture dried out, then buttered with pure creamery butter untouched by hands. "Butter-Kist" Pop Corn is popped in a new, automatic machine that does nearly everything but make change.. We simply put the raw corn in at the; top' and the "Butter-Kist" Popper turns it out in big, snowy, tempting flakes, freshly salted and buttered a delicious treat. Come ia tnd see it work!
