The message, In brief, follows: ' "It gives me considerable satisfaction to be able to Inform you that tho finan cial condition of tho State Is better than for several years. At the opening of tho preceding session of tho Legislature a State tax or a bond Issue was thought Imperative to ralso tho money required to meet tho appropriations for State De partments and Institutions for the fiscal year November 1, 1311, to October 31, 1915, but It later became apparent that tho direct Inheritance tax act of 1011 would provide the necessary funds. Tho fact Is, thnt while no additional revenue was provided by the Legislature of last year, upwnrd of J2.O0O.OM wore added to the Stato's Income by tho net referred to. Tho requisition act of 1311 also helped, In that It gavo tho State's financial officers a proper supervision nnd control over all expenditures of money and provided n much-needed check against tho prevalent practice of Incur ring obligations in excess of appropria tions. "Tho reports which the Comptroller and Treasurer will present to you Bhow that at the closo of our business year, i October 31, 1915, with every outstanding obligation provided for and deducted, wo i had an actual nnd not n fictitious bal ance in the Treasury amounting to ?307, 072.10. "Proper provision for vehicular trans portation is of vital moment, not only to our business Interests, but tho nld the , States should give In preparation for Nn ,' tlonol defense. Includes n system of hlgh :j ways desirable and aultablo for military i reasons. Tho Increasing nnd Insistent dc tt maud for good roads Imposes upon tho I Legislature the duty of providing them. It "The Commissioner of Public Itoads, in f his report for tho year recently closed, 5 estimates that an automobile paying nn annual llccnso feo of J7.&) and making MOO miles n year damages tho road to the extent of $30 or 33, whllo tho damngo caused by the ordinary two-horse team and wagon will not cost over $S to re place. It Is, therefore, evident that tho general use of automobiles for pleasure and business purposes adds tremendously lo the trafllc burdens tho roads must bear, and thus the now and ditflcult problom H (resented to us. Tho Commissioner of Public Itoads nlso estimates th total mileage of tho State, exclusive of streets, at 15,000, of which 10.500 nre still unim proved, and ho says It will cost $51,300,000 to properly improve tho whole mileage. The State's sharo of this expense would be about J,000.000. 'The annual appropriations heretofore wade have been ns liberal as tho financial condition of the Stnto would permit, and It does not seem possible to materially In crease them. Last year the appropriation to the Stato Itoad Fund was JoOO.OOO. in addition to which there was tho convict UDor appropriation nnd tho motor ve hicle fund, from which sources the Stato actually disbursed for road construction an repair the sum of Jt,23i,lC0,2.l. ns fol lows: . .

Speaking; of system and organization In Germany. Ellis uunuel torn loaay oi a friend of Ills who had recently returned from Germany who was explaining; how a recent change In the manner of bread distribution was quickly put In force. It. was decided by the German Govern ment that servants In households and laborers who could not buy luxuries were being discriminated against by hav ing only the same allowance of bread a's their employers, who were In a position .to buy luxuries. Every one In Germany nowadays Is supplied with a bread ticket which Is punched each time a Bup ply Is consumed. These tickets are quite large, and when the change to Increase the allowance of this class was decided upon it was necessary to call In from nil the servants and laborers the old tickets and substitute new ones. The work was turned over to the Boys' Brigade, who did It In short order and without cost. "Could one have done such a thing over here," said Mr. Glmbel, "and 1f we could what would It have cost 7" KENSINGTON MAKES DOLLS.

"The season for Dutch bulbs Is over," he said, "but we were cleaned out, and so was every other seed house In the city. We had little or no dllllculty early in the season getting all the bulbs we wanted from Holland and we had an exceptional year. In other years florists ordered a great many bulbs direct from Holland through the representatives fit Dutch houses, but on account of the peculiar conditions this last season the Dutch growers transacted business only through well-established representative houses, mid the florists were compelled to buy through such concerns as ours. That gave us a larger business than usual, "More recently we had dllllculty In get ting some stuff. We hod several cases of uplrea bulbs which were detained for SO days on the trip across. We refused to accept them. They had sprouted and had longsshoots when they arrived and were useless. The United States Government .sold them for the duty and got about tho value oi tne empty cases." . . SHIPPING PITTSBURGH STEEL.
