(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Various types of federal aid roads are built in different sections of tbe country. According to the bureau of public roads of the United States De partment of Agriculture, this varia tion is due largely to availability of j materials, volume of traffic and cli matic conditions. The 18,299 miles of federal aid I roads completed have been distributed among the eight major types of con- | sfruction as follows: Graded J&nd ! drained, 2,528 miles; sand-clay, 2,222 miles; grave!, 7,013 miles; water bound macadam, 4?<fmiles ; bituminous macadam, 654 miles; bituminous con crete, 699 miles, concrete, 3,350 miles, and brick, 287 miles. In the group of states composed of Washington, Oregon au?j California, the 1.1J25.2 miles completed has been j distributed as follows; Graded and I drained, 248.4: erflvel. 498.3; water Cement Roads Enable Farmer to Mar ket His Crops Quickly. bound macadam, $5.6; bituminous con crete, 56.4, nnd concrete, 296.5. Bridges completed total 2.3 miles in length. Tbe total mileage completed in each state is as follows: Washington, 359.1; Oregon, 402.5, and California, 305.5. In addition the mileage under construc tion or completed and final payment not made is u-'fc fellows: Washington, 17.4; Oregon, J9G, and California, i:i5.8. highwaT^ upkeep important Gravel and Macadam Surfaces Need Constant V/stthing to Prevent Rut* and Holes. i ' If experience has taught anything It has demonstrated vhe truth of the old saying tliat a stitch in time saves nine. Women will concede that. The farmer Iwis learned that the time taken to tfrira a staple In the fence will save hours of hunting for the hogs or cattle, rnd the damage they may do before they are returned a&ain to their lot, It is just as extravagant to neglect the highways, says the Successful Farmer. No matter what surfacing hhs been used. It ne.?ds watching and repair. Gravel ana macadam espe cially need constant watching to pre vent ruts and chuck holes. Every hole becomes two holes very soon because the toss given car or wagon by a hole pounds another hole next to Mj. Recon struction and large repairs soon run Jnto money. A shovelful of grqivel or rock at the right time will prevent fur ther cost. The wear and tear and cjst of re pairing highways Is nothing as com pared to the cost of damages to cars and cargoes that result from these chuck holes in the roads. Tax money is surely squandered when spent on highway improvement and then nothing is spent on little re pairs. One man In a car or motorcy cle can patrol many miles of road onc? a week, at least, and repair all slight damages to the surface as they occur and save the taxpayers a lot of money. DEVELOPMENT OF GOOD ROAD Orainage of Land Through Which Highway Runs Is Required ? Also Filling in Low Spots. The development of good roads re quires the drainage of the land through which the road runs, and the filling in of low places and swamps.

Better drainage result ing from good roads has thusH)een a positive factor in improving health and eliminating disease. -?-! *" Roads in South America. In South America the Touring club Argentlno Is trying to obtain legal sanction on the projects of better roads. Among these projects is the construction of 106,875 miles of roads, which. If sanctioaed, will require $12, 730,000 annually for highway construc tion. v To School on Skates.

That amount, in eac^i case, is divided into three feeds. Grain is Increased a little when the animal has to work hard and hay Is correspondingly decreased. As re gards hay. It is best to feed most of it at night and during periods of ex tra hard work not'to allow more than a pound or so of roughage at noon, while the horse Is cooling off, before being watered and fed again. The recommendations made by tjie inves tigators are to the effect that home grown feeds should be used and that legume hay, fed along with ear corn or preferably ear corn and oats, should be made an Important part of the roughage. While it was found that alfalfa hay and ea* corn are suf ficient to maintain horses and mules doing a considerable amount of medium hard work, It is believed that I part of the alfalfa or clover roughage may be replaced with timothy hay, oat hay, oat straw, prairie hay, or corn stover, and one-third of the corn ration may be replaced with oats to good advantage. In the experiments referred to In the foregoing grain and hay were fed in quantities readily consumed by the animals. The grain fed in the first three experiments consisted of two thirds corn and one-third oats, and In the fourth experiment of ear corn. In i the first experiment clover hay was fed. In the secon* r.>je-half clover and {LIVESTOCK | FACTS 1 Where Horses Are being. WorKed Hard the Amount of Grain Should Be Increased. one-half timothy hay; In the third alfalfa hay or one-half alfalfa and one-half timothy hay, and in the fourth alfalfa hay. Whether alfalfa liny should he liberally fed or not de pends largely on its quality. Alfalfa that is imperfectly cured generally contains molds or other micro-organ isms which irritate the kidneys and also tend to loosen the bowels, making the horse soft nnd readily fatigued. Such hay is unfit for the feeding of horses. FARROWING HOUSE FOR SOWS Construction Need Not Be Elaborate, but Sufficient to Give Needed Protection. Some time before farrowing the | gilts should have access to a farrow ing house or farrowing pen. The con struction need not be elaborate ; 4t may be very cheap and simple. It should, however, afford shelter and protection from winds and the sides should be so constructed as to pre vent the sow or gilt from lying on the pigs. Usually the A-shaped house or pen Is advisable, since this type has such an angle with the floor that the pigs are protected from the sow's weight when she lies down. PROVIDE GRAIN FOR HORSES Object Should Be 'to Keep Him Growing Well and in Good Flesh ? Exercise Needful. The horse should have enough grain to keep him growing well and in good flesh. Ordinarily, one pound of grain for every hundred pounds of weight is a safe rule, increasing the allow ance somewhat when the stallion works and decreasing it when lie runs in the pasture. Provide a paddock or strongly-fenced pasture where the stallion may be turned loose for.exer clse. . 8ell Lambs at Profit. It has been found that it costs be tween $7 and $9 a hundredweight to produce lambs for the market,, but If good quality lambs are found and properly fed they can be made to sell profitably. ? Lambs Should Make Money. With a scarcity of Iambs and a good high price for them on the market, there Is a good, chance to make a profit feeding them. Wherever there la ? $3 margin. Iambs can be made to re turn a profit to the feeder. J Why Farmers are Turning to y CHEVROLET j Jqt Economical Trontporlation ' < In 1922 Chevrolet jumped from seventh to second place ih sale*, of all cars, and to first place in sales of fully equipped modern cars. Purchases Joy farmers were the chief factor in this , remarkable development. - Farmers want automobiles not only of low first price, but also of low later cost for operation and maintenance. They want room, comfort, and the ability to stand up under hard conditions. They find that Chevrolet, fully equipped as sold, is the best value per dollar in the low-priced field, and neighbors tell them it costs less per mile to operate. Prices F. O. B.

Like many books called classics, which we speak of reverently and never look at, the dictionary of our Ennguage seems to he falling into dis use; we seldom consult it. If a strange word "swims into our ken" we regard it as an impertinence or we use it as a kind of game; we argue about it. discuss it, and perhaps write to the newspapers for a definition, but we don't consult" the dictionary. Perhaps the reason for our neglect is that the unabridged dictionary is too cumbersome and it gives too mai^v meanings, though thin papers cut the ordinary bulk. Simple words therein are found to be both noun and verb (spelled alike), and sometimes they have more than a dozen distinct mean ings. This is disconcerting. There may be room for a dictionary with the obsolete and archaic words left out, a true Twentieth-century dictionary that fftall be fool proof. ? New York Herald. Would Do Her Best. Charles M. Schwab says that his neighbors are forever trying to sell him things. Not long ago one man tried to sell him a cow. When Mr. Schab inquired about the breed and age of the animal he did not receive very satisfactory a lowers. Finally he asked, "IIow much milk does she give?" "Mr. Schwab, I don't know," was the reply, "but she's a darn good matured cow and she'll give all she can." ? Boston Transcript. /Talkative. "Your friend seems quite talkative" ??Yes.

Children Cry for Fletcher's Castoria CONCERNING THE NEW TOOTH Seemed to Mary Louise a Possibility That It Might Not Be White in Color. With, the possible exception of her debut in the world of elocution, when she "spoke a piece" from the teach er's desk at "last-day exercises," the greatest single event in Mary Louise's life was the loss of her .(irst tooth. She was seated at the side of her Aunt Evelyn, pensively exploring, with an inqufsivc little pink tongue, the pap left by the missihg incisor. Suddenly she broke the silence: "Aunt Ebbie, I wonder what color my ifew tooth will be when it comes in?" "Why, white, I suppose," replied her aunt, puzzled at the question, "Why?" "Well, you know," answered Mary Louise with a .sophisticated raising of her eyebrows, "you kn?w grandma has a gold one!" It. is usually the girl who never had a proposal who boasts of having jilted a number of men. A small boy's idea of playing safe Is to get his mother to promise not to tell his father. VARIETY in foods is essential, of course, but in providing variety do not overlook the importance of nourishment. Crisp, delicious Grape-Nuts is a highly nourish* ing cereal food in unusually compact form. It supplies the rich nutrition of wheat and malted barley, including the mineral elements of these splendid grains, without which health and strength cannot be maintained. Crape-Nuts, with good milk, is a complete food. Economical, too, because a moderate amn^nf provides unusual nourishment.
