from the railway window he can sec
roads that are practically bottomless
and teams struggling through the
mire that is nearly knee deep. He is
perfectly amazed that such conditions
should obtain. He cannot understand
why It should be so in a country that
has such marvellous resources. Inc
fact is that America is the only coun-
try In the world that is rich enough to
stand the drain, handicap and the
losses that bad roads impose.
Again, may we ask, why is it that
in this land, where so many great
successes have been scored in so
MANY fields that we have utterly
failed in dealing with the highways?
In the writer's opinion the reason Will
be found in certain fundamental mis-
conceptions. They date back to CO.
lonial times. In the early days the
people settled along the water courses,
in the valleys. Farming was done IN
q primitive way. It was the day OF
the homespun. The hand loom and
spinning wheel were found every
where. The people lived very simply;
what they wore, they made; what
they ate. they raised. The community
was self.centered and had very little
to do with the settlement over the
hills in the next valley. The spirit OF
home rule was everywhere dominant.
The roads were regarded purely as OF
local concern. They were just such
roads as the people cared to build
and whether good or bad 1t was nc
ones business but their own.
Thus the concept that the highways
were purely local matter and die
not concern any one outside OF the
immediate vicinity became firmly es
tablished and held undisputed sway
until about 20 years ago, when New
Jersey man made discovery tina

could stand the tax and that good
roads spelled ruin. In every case, how
ever, where the plan was proceeded
with by state aid, the people were sur.
prised that they had the roads and
that they did not feel the tax
that, in fact, more and more roads
were demanded, up to the lawful limit
Thus it has ever been, and probably
will be, for years to come.
Good roads mean more social life
more pleasure, less drudgery. The,
mean better schools, more ennght

We contend that. particularly IN Sc

Importance whether the sloppy food
given the animal be comfortably warm
or lev cold. If the food Is cold 1t has
to be raised to the temperature OF the
body, and some of the food has to be
used for this purpose. This Is a loss
that would be avoided If the food were
warmed. Moreover. the pig is chilled.
its comfort is impaired. and the fat
tening process Is retarded. so that there
Is a double loss. 1t may be questioned
whether the same rule will hold good
with cattle generally. but the dairy
cows might very well have some OF
the mashes warm. In the end 1t re-
solves itself into n question OF ex-

COOKED FOOD FOR STOCK.
Under Some Circumstances Il Pays e
Take the Trouble.

Under Some Circumstances Il Pays e
Take tho Trouble.
There are perhaps few questions of
stock management in regard to which
there is a greater difference of opinion
than on that Of whether It Is worth
while to cook food for stock. There
are those who maintain with great
positiveness that it is. There are 9th
ers who, writing from the scientific
side mainly object that cooking adds
nothing to the digestibility or the
nourishing charact, of the food and
that the cost and labor OF cooking are
thrown away or at best meet with
but a small return in the opportunity
afforded of smuggling into the stomach
of the animal food which it would 9th
erwise reject and which cannot. there
fore, be of much feeding value
The feeder who has a good supply
of steam on the farm will frequently
have found it most convenient and
will have satisfied himself on many
occasions that he has been able to
provide paatabe rations for his stock
which would otherwise have been IN
satisfied had not the convenience for
cooking been at hand. How far this
has been a gain must. of course, de
pend on circumstances. 1t might have
paid him better to be better supplied
with cakes and roots and other foods
But a man must cut his coat accord
ing to his cloth. and there is generally
on every farm at some time or other
a scarcity Of good foods and variety
Of fodder which cannot be classified as
first rate. but which has to be made
the best of. and if cooking will make
It possible at small cost to use 1t it
would seem to be mistake to refrain
from cooking.
At any rate. it will hardly be dis
puted that food may profitably be
cooked for pigs. The pig is an animal
that suffers from cold more than any
other. A litter of pigs in the winter
season is II trial thar the wise pi?
