The fact that 95 per cent of the automobiles of the world art American made, one natur. ally says, it is no wonder the United States leads in having the largest number of automobiles. The statistics of the world givo 27,(550,207 machines in operation or one for each GO persons in the world. In Canuda and Hawaii there is one machine for each 11 of the population, N'ew Zealand has one to 12; Australia and Denmark, one to 17; Great Britain, one to 43; Argentina, one to 45 and France one to 40. The influx of the automobile in the American cities is held by trade reviewers as being responsible for the blow at other branches of business, particularly the clothing and shoe business. Tn the terms of a local merchant, the owner of an automobile makes old clothes do for all and the hot dog sandwich and a glass of root beer, saves cooking and other worries of the home.

The placing of the Washington avenue bridge over the river at Wall avenue, has provided the residents of the northwest part of the county with a road into the city that is about a half mile closer than formerly. Heretofore the residents of the county in the Slaterville, Marriott and Warren districts coming to the city, were compelled to go to Washington avenue bridge. The improved road into the city from the northwest section is over the following route: Second street to the Broom bench road, south to Twelfth street, east on Twelfth street to Gibson avenue, south Seventeenth street, thence east to Wall avenue and south on Wall avenue, across the Ogden river into the city.

A continuous fresh supply is essential not only for the prevention of the already serious alkali poisoning of the ducks, but also for maintaining food plants that have heretofore been destroyed by the influx of salt and alkaline waters. The cost, kind, and location of dike construction and other improvements will lie studied at once, as this will furnish the data needed as a basis for corrective legislation. The interest of sportsmen in the matter is shown by their raising the funds needed for the preliminary work. A monthly census of waterfowl at selected points throughout the United States will be taken by the biological survey. It will be an aid in administering the Federal Migratory Bird Trrtity act and the regulation thereunder, for protection of birds that migrate between the United States and Canada. The undertaking is for the purpose of obtaining accurate info! mation regarding the numbers, distribution and migration of waterfowl throughout the United States, (lanadu and Mexico.
