SENSIBLE ROAD WORK.

Tho Excellent system Adopted by Wig
consin Farm Community.
In this article l will briefly tell how
we make the most of what we have:
The township owns road-grader, n
six-horse machine that makes q turn
pike as smooth as boulevard. Tl;is
machine is manned by an expert, who
makes the circuit of the. township in
June with team, grader and plow
When the outfit gets to our district we
hitch on our teams and grade up where
most needed as much turnpike as we
can gravel the same season, making it
rather high and narrow at first in or
der that the rain and travel of a year
or two may not flatten it out and make
it as much of mudhole as at first
After grading comes the graveling.
There being no more available gravel
inside the highway lines we have taken
to the fields, several of the farmers
having opened pits for the free use of
the district. We draw the gravel from
the pit nearest the place to be gray
eled, endeavoring to make each man
draw a full yard, if possible, and dump
Ing the leads end to end along the
middle of the turnpike, leveling at
night by means of heavy drag with a
man on top driving lengthwise of the
turnpike and spreading the gravel Just
wide enough to catch the wagon
wheels.
We find that the best road is made by
grading in spring and graveling in the
fall. In this way the turnpike gets
packed solid during the dry summer
months, so that the gravel put on in the
fall does not sink into the dirt, but is
packed so solidly on top by winter
rains and SHOWS and the constant trav-
ell that the spring breakup cannot
phase it If the gravel is put on fresh
made turnpike in spring it becomes
more or less mixed with the dirt and
does not make so solid a road, besides
the man who is obliged to travel all
summer over newly graveled road is
apt to curse the roadmaster. -Wiscon.

Lenzing was the name of the place

we had dragged our boats beyond the
reach of the savage waves, and took us
into his big dwelling-room, which was
like baronial hall Here was space
for fifty people to sit and feast or have

that every part of their quarters indi-
| Gated scrupulous neatness, from the
round little windows to the extreme
recesses of the vaulted ceiling The roof
was supported by stone columns that
would have graced monastery.
| Their eating and drinking troughs
were of stone; their wants were minis
tered to by two as dainty and graceful
maidens as ever figured in a pastoral,
and such was the behavior of these
animals that no well-regulated house
keeper could have objected to them as
fellow lodgers The veranda that
passed the dining hall continued past
the stables, wherein were about dozen
horses and twice as many COWS The
manure was shovelled across this walk
and stacked up Immediately near it,
and yet this veranda was the agreeable
gathering place of warm evening.
AS we chatted, two colts, a few weeks
old walked up and about us, nibbled
at our trousers and fingers, rubbed
their noses affect ionately against each
of us in turn, and played with the big
watch dog as happily as if all three
were pups in the same litter. With
such evidence of kind treatment is it a
wonder that their live stock is gentle
and willing?
We asked our host if he found no i'll.
effects from so much manure beneath
his window, and he assured us that he
considered it wholesome. He Ger rtainly
appeared healthy, and his household as
well-radiant with prosperity and good
spirits, generous with his substance; IA

ceive nothing himself for our entertain

DON'T Feed tho Hens Too we'll

We are often asked why the hens
that are in perfect health and well led
do not lay. The reason is that. in a
majority of cases, the hens are too well
fed. They are kept up to a fat condi-
tion, fed perhaps three times day,
and their reproductive organs deranged.
When the hens have giddiness, sudden
.ly die, have soft livers when examined
after death, and are very fat, the indi-
cations are that they do not have sufi-
cient exercise and are fed too literally

is very seldom seen in the linen press
nowadays, but what can be still bought

these with wide hemstitched tops and
