GIVE THE BOYS A CHANCE.

Are you going to send your boy to
the agricultural college this winter
or will you keep him at home until
he is dissatisfied with farm life and
leaves to hLat a job In the city? This
is the time to decide this question
for the college term opens in Septem-
Der. Perhaps you will say that you
cannot spare the boy, but unless YOU
do give him the chance to see what
is in farm life, you may be forced to
spare him for good. Many q farm

but drudgery in his work. An agricul-
tural education will cause him to see
that farming is a business that IL as

other. Are you one Of those who says

The kind of tile to be used depends
upon local conditions. Concrete tile.
If properly made, is equally as good
as the clay tile. Which kind to use
is entirely a local question of dollars
and cents. If concrete tile can be
made more cheaply than clay tile can
be had, use concrete; if not, use clay
tile.
One great advantage of the concrete
tile is that they can be easily made
by the local users at or near the place
where they are to be placed, so the
freight charges are dispensed with, as
well as the large breakage losses due
to handling. Placed in the ground,
both are durable. If concrete is used,
great care should be taken to see that

prevails to- some extent, that tile dis.

A bulletin is now in course of pre-
paration by the United States ONCE
of Public Roads telling Low to make
concrete drains. This bulletin will
treat the subject fully, explaining care
fully every point that may arise in
making drain pipes and ~culverts.

lege, the farm press, the institute
and farming trains to spread the gos-
pei of better farming.
The value of the college is well
Illustrated in a story told of a boy
who asked his father to send him to
a farm school. The father did not
see why his son should go to college
to learn to be a farmer when he had
learned it himself. And he put it to
his son in that way. well, isn't
Uncle John a pretty good farmer
father" asked the boy. "The best
in the country" proudly asserted the
old a "And are you not consider
ed to be a pretty good farmer, faith
err" asked the lad. Il am" said his
sire. We'll" said the boy, ut has
taken you and Uncle John a long
time to learn all you know about farm
ing and if I could go to school and
learn what you have in four years,
would it not be better than to spend
years getting it through experience"
That is where the boy had the best of
the argument and he went to college
that winter.
The college instructors dc not claim
to know more than a farmer OF ex-
p~erience but they do teach the boy
what the man Of experience knows.
Few farmers take the time and pains
to take their sons out to the feed lot,
or into the corn field, or orchard and
explain to them just why they do
things the way they do and few could
explain it 30 the boy could understand
if they did. They are not trained to-
tell the things they have learned by
hard knocks but the college profess
sors have made a study of how best
to tell these things. They are but
teaching the knowledge that has been
gained through long years of expert
ence, not always Of themselves, but
of those who have gone before.
If you want your boy to be a farmer
you surely want him to be the very
best that he car be, SO give him a
chance to live up to your expectations.
Send him to the state collage for the
full four years If possible, II not, let
him take one Of the shorter courses.
Then watch how much more interest
he takes in his work.

With an average OF 1000 tons of
water falling in the form of rain on
each mile Of public road in the United
States annually, it is scarcely to be
marveled at that the ten command
ments of the road builder can be sum-
med up succinctly in the word drain
age"
The saying has truth for a basis, as
good drainage is the primary requisite
for all roads. Even in sand roads this
holds true, for there good drainage"
means such as will safely remove the
storm water without erosion or gully
ing and still retain the surface mois-
ture.
To secure good drainage one must
take into consideration both the sur
face water and the underground water.
The surface water must be removed
quickly and completely and without
subjecting the road to excessive scour
or erosion. For this reason, the center
of the road should be raised and the
slope towards the side bitches should
be u to 1 inch to each foot distance,
or so that the water will run freely to
the side bitches and not flow down
the road or remain in puddles in the
roadway. The side bitches should be
of ample size to- care for the severest
storms with a fall of not less than 6
inches to each 100 feet. Frequent and
cross drains should be construct
ed and every opportunity taken to
get the water away from the road as
quickly as possible. Any road along
which you see water standing in the
side bitches or on which puddles Of
water have collected or which has
been badly quilted and eroded by the
rains has poor drainage and is in need
of immediate attention. In fact earth
roads always require a little attention
after each rain. The split-log drag is
essentially a tool to maintain good
drainage ON our earth roads and should
be used after each rain. On a heavy
clay or gumbo soil the drag when prop
erly used tends to puddle the road
; surface, keep it free from ruts, dense,
smooth and hard, thus securing the
best surface drainage possible.
But in many places the underground
water is too near the surface and must
be removed before a good road is pos
sible. This means that some form Of
sub-drainage must be resorted to, US
ually tile drains of clay or concrete.
Water from whatever source must be
gotten rid of effectively, for water
plus clay or gumbo invariably equals
mud when mixed in spring and sum-
mer. Water becomes ice in winter and
as water in freezing expands one
eighth Its volume, the road heaves
out of shape and when the ice melts
the road disappears beneath the rising
