won't. They don't want hystorics.

ROAD
BUILDING
COST OF ROAD MAINTENANCE
Test In Southeastern Nebraska Shows
Satisfactory Work Can Be Done
for Less Than $10 Per Mile.
(By C. P. C1IA8K. North Dakota Agrl
4 cultural College.)
At tho homo farm In southeastern
Nebraska thoro Is a stretch of land
ono-hnlf mlto in length that wo have
dragged for soven years. Only onco
during; this period has thiB road been
worked with anything but a drag. Two
years ago tho Bldo ditches were
cleaned with tho common road grader.
A careful record of tho tlmo taken
to drag this road has boon kept. Two
trips for ono man and ono team requir
ing ono hour's tlmo for a single drag
ging Is tho basis taken. Tho first year
wo dragged it 15 times, tho second 13,
tho third 17, and tho fourth 12 aud tho
fifth 14 times or 71 dragglngs of ono
hour's tlmo in tlvo years. This Is 30
cents nn hour for a man and team Is
$4.26 a year for tho ono-half mile. For
a mlto It would bo $3.52 annually. An
other road in tho immediate vicinity
cost loss than $10 per mile annually.
A caso is noted In Public Roads Bulle
tin No. 48, United States department
of agriculture, whero tho cost of sim
ilar maintenance of roads in Arkansas
was $11 per mile. Stato Engineer
Qcnrhart of Kansas putB the rango of
cost for dragging at from $4 to $10.
Tho cost for North Dakota should
not cost moro than $10 a mile, whllo
in most cases it would bo much less,
tho cost depending upon tho character
of tho soil, tho rainfall, traffic and
grade. As an average for all dirt roads
I would placo tho annual cost of main
tenance at $7.50 per milo or $460,740
to drag in a satisfactory manner tho
ronds in North Dakota ono year.
Tho total oxpondlturo on public
roads of North Dakota outside of
townB In 1911 wns $691,540. If proper
ly organized, and if tho pooplo wero
educated, wo could properly maintain
our earth road with tho present road
funds and havo $230,800 loft for
bridges, now construction, otc.
The national office of public roadB
recommends tho patrol syotcm com
bining dragging. Tho Nebraska legis
lature passed a law that is not unlike
tho patrol system. Tho subBtanco of
the law Is as follows:
The graded roads In each county aro
to' be divided into road dragging dis
tricts by tho county boards. Ono per
son to 'each township is to bo ap
pointed superintendent of dragging,
and is to rcceivo not moro than $2.50
per day.
Roads shall bo dragged whenever
necessary, and all the sections of tho
highway shall be dragged at once.
County boards may levy a tax of not
to oxceed one mill for road dragging.
Whero four horses aro used on nn
oight-foot drag, tho rato of payment is
75 cents for each milo of highway
dragged both ways. Whero a seven
foot drag and two or three horseo are
used, 60 cents Is tho prescribed rate.
On rocky highways or stretches of
road that cannot be Improved by drag
ging the county boards aro not re
quired to put the act into effect.
EXHIBITION OF ROAD MODELS
Greatest Display Ever Shown In Any
Part of World Will Be Seen at
San Francisco In 1915.
;
Arrangements aro to bo mado by
tho United States department of agri
culture, through Logan Waller Page,
director of tlio ofllcc of public roads,
to placo on exhiibtlon in 191f tho
greatest collection of road models ever
displayed in nny part of tho world.
The models will furnUh exact dupli
cates of the old Roman roads, French
roads, and all of tho various types of
modern roadB, together with miniaturo
models of road machinery operated
by electricity.
The otllco of public roads mado an
exhibit of road models for tho first
time at the Alaska-Yukon-Paclflc ex
position. Tho aim was to put on view
Buch striking examples in miniaturo
of road models that visitors would
not only appreciate tho beneficent ef
fects of improved highways, but would
at the same tlmo be able to under
stand tho methods of their construc
tion. Since the Alaska-Yukon-Paclflc ex
position closed, tho exhibition has
been displayed at various other expo
sitions and fairs. Since that tlmo the
collection has been greatly augmented,
until every single type of road is
now represented and every known
device used in the making of roads
has been reproduced In miniature
As a result of the Instruction fur
nished by these road models, many
farmers have joined forces to improve
their own highways, and the road
building movement has had a great
Impetus

If we are to have good roads, we
must bo willing to pay for them and
wo must be willing to pay for tholr
maintenance, and also remember that
the maintenance Is of as groat if not

A Fine Apple Orchard In Oradell, N. J., From Which a Big Yield Was Ob

(fly L. M. HKNNINOTON)
Apples that aro oxpoctod o go into

they got mellow or fall from tho
trees.
Thoy must not be picked too soon,
however, but should bo loft until thoy

Tho fruit should bo carefully assort

broken skin or a worm hole, or 1b in
any other way imperfect, sholud bo

bruised, or wormy fruit will very
quickly destroy sound fruit that 1b

Apples should not bo packed until
four or flvo dnys after thoy havo boon
picked. They should thou bo kopt in
a shed until freezing weather conies

DIVERS IMPORTANT
HINTS FOR GARDEN
Heavy Application of Manure and
Plenty of Potash Should Be
Used on Vegetables.,
(By b. M BENNINGTON )
Such vogotableB as cabbago, cauli
flower, lettuco nnd onions utilize to
the best advantngo heavy applications
of manure.
Plenty of potash and phosphoric
acid should be used with all vegeta
bles and particularly with tomatoes,
peppers, eggplants and root-crops.
Llmo is tho best preventative of
club-foot in cabbage. It doesn't al
ways prevent this disease, but It s
usually effectual.
Dy having vegetables at tho earli
est possible date you will bo able to
cntch the first customers nnd hold
them during the wholo of tho season.
SoIIb that aro heavily manured for
cabbago, lettuco, celery and other
crops will not need very much manuro
tho following year, when planted with
tomatoes, poppers and root-crops, es
pecially if a fair amount of commer
cial fertilizer is UBcd.
When green manuro cropB are
plowed under, thero is moro or less
tendency of such material to sour
tho land, and applications of llmo
after plowing under such crops,
sweeten tho soli and securo a more
favorable condition for tho growing of
;lover. It is very important to work
In clovers as often ns possible, and a
sweet soil Is necessnry to get good
results with them.
Crops must bo gathered in proper
condition, and sent to tho mnrkot
fresh and clean. Careful grading is
essential. A fow Inferior specimens

attention. Even a fow specimens will

nnd in season, thoy will stand n great

Tho boxes or barrels In tho shed

When tho frcozlng wonthor comes

TIMELY NOTES OF
THE POULTRY YARD
Handsome Profit May Be Se
cured by Buying Pasteboard
Boxes for the Eggs.
(By C. 8. MILI.Klt.)
Tho farmer's wlfo who will buy
pasteboard egg packages and placo in
them nothing but clean eggs will
mnko enough profit to pay for tho
pnekagos many times over.
Someone has truly said that "the
best poultry men on most farms nro
women."
To vcntllnto a poultry-houso does
not mean that holos should be knock
ed into It so that drafts will draw
through, nor that tho openings aro
large enough to admit snow nnd rain.
Tho ago of a fowl is always dis
closed by tho condition of its logs.
If the skin is hnrd and rough, bo sure
it Is nn old one. The delicacy of tho
skin Indicates youth.i
Peoplo who fall in tho poultry busi
ness nro usually those who take It
up as a fad and not for tho purpose of
making a living.
If you aro raising birds for broil
er or roasters, It Is well to confine
them, because they will not fatten as
quickly on tho rango, but breeding
fowls Bhould bo allowed wide range.
Tho chief objoctlon to Belf-focdlng
contrivances la thnt tho fowls in win
der not having cxerclflo by scratching
for their feed, aro likely to become
too fat. '
If a box of broken charcoal la kopt
before tho fowls thoy will pick at it
a great deal and It Is nn excollont
thing to keep them In good condition.
If you havo not yoj separated tho
cockerels from tho pullots, do so at
once. Turn them Into capons or dis
pose of them.
This 1b tho time when henij aro
molting and need rest. Do not ex
pect them to shed feathers and lay
eggs at tho usual rato both at tho
same tlmo.
If tho old poultry houso has dono
service for mnny years, and yotir
fowls havo bocn troubled with lice
latoly, burn down the old shack and
build a new ono on a new site. It
will pay
Nover Bond to raarkot a bird that
you would not bo willing to serve on
jour own table. If you stick to this
rule you will soon earn a reputation
that will raako your stock salable ev
ery day in tho year.
It depends a great deal on manage
ment, care and feed as to whether the
early pullets will make early layers
Clean Water and Feed.
Drinking dishes and feeding troughs
for chicks aro likely to becomo dirty
and insanitary unless special precau
tions nre taken
Drinking water should never b(
placed in common dishes or vessel)
where tho chicks may get in will
