PAYS TO RAISE WEEDS.
These "Plsnts Out Of Plaes" Have a
Fixed Market Value.

Money IN weeds? To be sure. The
national department Of agriculture has
been for many years telling the farm
ers Of the large money value going to
waste each year in this country in the
shape of pernicious weeds and has
been issuing bulletins with directions
for collecting. curing and selling the
weeds \ quarter Of century ago
Dr.. George T.. Loring. the commission
er Of agriculture. called attention to
the fact that i'm Germany many Of the
c0mmonest and most pernicious weeds
that the American farmer has 10 con-
tend with were successfully and prof
itabiy cultivated. Burdock. dandelion,
witch grass. foXgl0ve, MULLEN, hore-
hound, jimson, mustard and water
hemlock are among our commonest
weeds and grow I'm great profusion al
most everywhere i'm the United States.
Ordinarily they are regarded merely
as troublesome weeds. The trouble Of
course is ia the lazy habit Of attempt
Ing 20 grow weeds and cultivated crops
on the same land at the same time.
SO it often happens that the witch
grass between the potato rows is more
valuable than the tubers in the hills.
When you raise weeds you must make
a business of it, Land that will raise
nothing else will raise weeds. The
jims0n grows I'm rank prOfusion about
the feed lot. the front yard is yellow
with dandeliOn flowers. and the flow
ers of the MULLEN bedeck the pastures.
The burdock grows In the roadside
fence corners. and the waste lot pro-
duces an abundance Of witch grass and
comfrey, yet a majority Of the drug
weeds used in medicine in this coun-
try are still imported and paid for at a
high rate.
Without counting NORWOOD, tansy
and rhubarb. all Of which are weeds In
favored places. and without including
catnip or pennyroyal or any Of the

BRICK ROAD BUILDING
Methods Of Construction Adopted
by an Ohio County.
MACADAM IS TOO EXPENSIVE.

Homer w. Jackson Tells Why Prop
eriy Constructed Brick Highways
Are Cheaper Than Stone Ones-Ten
Feet Wide Enough For Country Use.
Washington county. O., has pretty
definitely committed itself to a policy
Of brick road building. The county
officials and the different city and
country organizations are a unit on the
subject. Some work has already been
done and a comprehensive road build
Ing campaign only waits on a little
more definite knowledge as to what
scheme Of road building will best suit
local conditions.
The unanimity Of opinion as to the
desirability Of brick roads IS surpris-
Ing l attended n monthly meeting Of
the Valley Farmers club, n social or
ganization which unites the farmers Of
the Ohio valley in Washington county,
where the subject of an afternoon de-
bate was. Shall Washington county
issue bonds for 100000 10 builu brlck
roads? This club has membership
Of about 200 and probably 125 were
present at the debate. but if there was
n man among them who did not favor
brick roads he did not say so either In
public or private. The member who
took the negative side OF the ques-
ton in the debate contended that with
their present knowledge of brick road
material and construction they were
not yet ready TO expend large sums.
AS the facts become known about
the relative cost Of stone and brick
roads and the enormous cost Of main
tanning the former brick roads are
rapidly growing in popularity. While
It is true that brick roads cost more
than stone. the difference is not as
great as is generally thought. In Wash

LAYING BRICK on A SIXTEEN FOOT ROAD.
ington county. for example, brick roads
are being built at a cost of only $1,000
TO $1,000 per mile more than macad-
amized roads would cost, and 1t has
been found that the cost Of maintain
ing the latter will in six or eight years
consume all the difference. After that
the maintenance Of the stone road con-
tinues increasingly expensive, while
the properly constructed brick road
Will under ordinary conditions need
no repairs for an indefinite period.
One Of Washington county's farmers
observed The first cost Of a stone
road is only the beginning Of the ex-
pense: the brick road is an asset"
Here. as elsewhere. IL has been found
that the best argument for brick roads
is-a brick road. Two or three years
ago the first one was built for a dis
lance Of half a mile along the Ohio
river where the road is flooded two
or three times year and where it was
conceded that no other kind of road
would "stay put" for a single season.
The brick road stayed. and every farm
er who drove into Marietta over that
road is clamoring for its extension.
At the time Of my visit TO Washing
ton county last fall the commissioners
were finishing two new brick roads.
One up the Muskingum valley is six
teen feet wide with two feet of gravel
outside the curb and two feet OF earth
BERN outside the gravel, practically
a twenty-four foot roadway. Here the
brick is laid on a seven to eight inch
gravel base with concrete curb. brick,
curb and BERN all rolled to an even
surface The cost of this road was
S11 800 a mile, and 1t was built under
state aid law.
On the west side Of the Muskingum
river. on the ridge above Marietta, they
were building a ten foot brick road.
This road was built on a direct levy
made by the county commissioners,
and the fact that they dared TO make
such d levy proves how generally pub
lie sentiment approves this kind OF
road building. This road has a broken
stone base with two feet Of stone and
two Of earth BERN, making an eight
cen foot roadway. The curb on this
road is Of brick. While this is the
cheapest of all curbing. opinions differ
as to its permancnce. Certainly the
BERN must be kept up most carefully
as any falling away of the support
will let the curb down. The cost OF
the different curbs used was put at
$4,000 a mile for stone. $3.50 to $500
for concrete and $500 to $500 for
brick. This ten foot road cost about
the same as the sixteen foot-S11,S4
for 5000 feet-owing to the fact that
It was laid out among the hills. where
the grading was heavier. the hauls
longer and harder and cracked stone
used in place of gravel.
The ten foot roadway REINFORCED with
eight feet Of stone and earth BERN
seems wide enough for ordinary coun-
try roads and met the approval Of most
farmers l interviewed There was a
pretty general sentiment however, In
favor Of sixteen foot roadways on the
main Travelled roads and approaches 70
