Over $2,000,000 Der month has been spent by the state highway commission during the months of June, July, August ana September, according to figures made Dublic here tonight in a review of the general road situation. . Of this amount more that , $300,000 per month has bee paid back into the state treasury through the collection of the gasoline tax of three cents per gallon. ; The construction has been divided over the entire state and no effort has been soared to make the roads wh'.ch have been completed the most modern of their kind and they are, built to stand traffic of many years to come, provided proper maintenance is continued. . For every mile in - the state road system there are 37.6 automobiles and to each of these cars there are 12.4 persons. That is there are one eighth as many automobiles in North Carolina as there are people. Though the license tax in the state varies for each type and model of jar, according, to the figures, of the commission, the average fee for the first 229.400 automobiles registered, this yar is $1184. ' v. : Over every square mile of terri tory in the state, if the state were to be apportioned off to its auto own ers, there would be four automobiles to operate. An answer to the employment question in North Carolna has been given by. the commission during the past two years when the labor sur plus has to a large extent been util ized in road building. At the pres ent time there are 13,000 men engag ed in construction throughout North Carolina. ' ' ' Thoug the average of road build ing in the state has been high since the present commission got well un der way. it is now operating at a maximum speed of completing roads. During the months of June, July and August, 80 . miles of hard surfaced roads were completed each month. In addition to this work there has been an average of two miles of topsoil and sand clay roads completed each day so that the approximate monthly average of completed roads ready for the putlic to use has been 140 miles a months. . Roads completed are being kept up by the state which has a compltely organized maintenance system The highways are inspected by patrolmen at regular intervals and places which need repairing are cared for-at once. The maintenance system, which has been organized from the time the new system of building roads became ef fective, is counted as one of the most important divisions of the commis sion and is performing a most valu able work. ' MR. HESTER MOVES TO HIS OWN 600 ACRES How R. F. Hester of Oak Hill. Com munity moved from a small rented farm to the 600 acre pface that he now owns is interestingly told by D. W. Roberts, county Agent for the Agricultural Extension Service in Caldwell county. Mr. Roberts says that Mr. Hester has demonstrated in pract:ce how a man must study his soil, location and climatic condition and then follow the kind of farming most likely to give him success under these conditions. - ' . Mr. Hester's experience, ,as given briefly by county Agent Roberts, fol lows: .:';.,-;:'-'. "Ten years ago Mr. Hester and fam l'y were existing on a small rented farm with practically no house at all in which to live. I He went in debt to buy three cows. Havinsr a sur plus of milk over and abovo the home consumption, the family bought a prarat.dr and started separating milk and selling cream to the Hickory -Creamery. In addition to their cows they also added. pigs and poultry to their farm operations. Aiier a iew months they saw that by selling cream and feeding warm skim-milk to the calves, i pigs and poultry that they were not only making a nice little profit from cream checks, but also from the pigs and poultry. Just as soon as a member of the family be came large enough 'to assist in the work, they would not only add to the farm onerat'ons, but they would add five or six more cows to their herd, and this would natural.y require more pigs and poultry to consume the additional amount of skim-milk. They, continued this type of farming year after ye-r, making a nice profit each and at the same time educating their children. Their oldest daughter1 is considered a very efficient teacher in Mie county now. Their next oldest child, a boy. is. in his senior year in High School. He has attended for seven years without , either missing a day or being tardy. The'r next daughter has atteneded school for six years without missing a day or being tardy. Their baby girl has attended for two years without absent or tardy! They now own a 600-acre farm, live in a nice home, ride in their own car, and say the dairy cow is responsible for it all. Their cream check for last month was' $170.00 from our Caldwell County Co-operative Cream ery. ' " " Dr. Edward J. Williams Physician and Surgeon Surgery, Obstetrics -and , Women's Diseases.
