RUSHING GOOD ROADS WORK.
What the National Grange is DoIns
and Has Accomplished.

The movement, initiated by the Ma
tional Grange Patrons of Husbandry.
TO secure appropriations by congress
for aiding the state and local road au-
thorities in the work of public high
way improvement, has made crafty
ing progress during the past year. The
plans for a national educational cam
paign, approved at the last annual ses-
sion of the order, have been carried
out on a large scale, with the result
that the proposition for federal aid
has been widely discussed and in
dorsed in all parts of the country.
The most convincing proof of the
far-reaching effect of the grange move
ment for better roads is found in the
platforms of the two great political
parties contained planks favoring road
improvement This remarkable prog.
ress, as compared with a few years
ago, when the subject was ignored by
both parties, can justly be credited to
the public sentiment created by the
persistent agitation of the grange.
The press In general has given cor.
dial support TO the good roads move
ment, and the leading newspapers
magazines and farm journals testify 10
the interest of their readers in the
subject by the frequent publication of
articles dealing with various phases OF
the subject. The importance of i'm
proved roads, as a great economic re.
form which will directly promote the
prosperity of the largest producing in
dustry of the nation, and thus indi.
rectly benefit all classes and interests,
is now fully recognized, and the prob.
lem remaining is that of concentrating
this favorable public sentiment on
congress so as to secure the enact
ment OF legislation making effective
the wishes of the people.
1t has been given out at Washington
that of thousands of letters received
from farmers by the presidents Com
mission on Country Life" by far the
larger number advocate improved
roads as the most important reform
In the farmers interest that congress
can aid i'm securing. 1t is undoubtedly
the reform that means most in dollars
and cents to the individual farmer,
and the adoption of the grange policy
OF federal aid will be the most effec-
tive agency in bringing about the es-
tablishment OF a complete system of
improved roads in every section and
locality in the country.

HINTS ON INSECT CONTROL.
Points Which Ought to Be Considered
at This Season of Year.

Insects live over in almost all
stages and the fall and winter furnish
a good season for reducing their raw
ages the following year. It will be
we'll TO bear the following points IN
mind to aid in this work.
Dispose of all rubbish Many in
sects which hibernate in the adult
stage seek rubbish of all kinds. Here
they are protected from the severe
change in the weather which is so
detrimental to their constitution and
escape the prying eyes of their bird
enemies. All rubbish should be con-
signed TO the compost heap or plowed
Stuff that cannot be used in this way
should be burned. Clean out the ditch
banks and fence corners. Cut close
and rake up all these places
Fall and winter cultivation of the
ground will help to dispose of grass
hopper eggs and cutworms. If the
ground is kept fallow during the fall,
cdtworms will disappear before the
spring crops come up.
Disc the alfalfa 1t will break up
or bury the pods of grasshopper eggs
and be a help to the plants. 1t will
be well to disc all dry exposed places
where the grasshoppers have been
abundant during the fall
Make an examination of the spray
ing apparatus, and if necessary give
the orchard a winter treatment. At
any rate, be ready for the spring
work
Examine the seed peas. If they are
weeviled, put them in a tight box and
fumigate with rbon-bisulphide at the
rate of four ounces to each bushel of
peas. The fluid should be put in a
shallow dish over the peas so that the
fumes will flow down over the mass.
Clean out around the apple trees
and scrape off the rough bark to get
rid of the alternating insects.
Examine the chicken roosts and
use some good disinfectant on them
If the mites are troublesome. This
should be repeated at intervals every
few weeks until cold weather sets in.
