roads. That this is desirable few will
gainsay, and that it is becoming nee
essary under modern conditions and
the relations now existing between
producer and consumer is also quite
generally admitted The increased cost
of hauling over unimproved roads is
an immense tax upon the farmer and
those who purchase his products. and
is a restriction on the crops which
can be raised and moved in certain
localities.
The Interstate Commerce commits
sion finds that two hundred and sixty
five million tons of agricultural forest
and miscellaneous products of the
land are hauled to depots for ship
ment in the course of a year Figured
on a basis of the average haul at the
lowest average rate over unimproved
roads, % cents per ton per mile. the
cost would be four-hundred-thirty-
Two millions, four hundred thousand
dollars. If the hauling could be re.
duced to one-half the present average
or 1ac a ton. the resultant saving
would exceed s2O9,OOO,OOO a year.
That such saving is reasonable is
indicated by the experiences in other
countries and in localities where i'm
proved roads are found The cost OF
hauling on such improved roads is
placed at from to 10 cents per ton.
The introduction of wise and equit-
able road laws and good business
management would. it is estimated.

IMPROVED ROADS IN AMERICA
Some Startling Facts Given Regard
ing Unimproved Thoroushfares
In the United States.

There are in the United States a
little more than two million one hun
dred and fifty thousand miles of
roads. OF this mileage only one hun
dred and seventy-six thousand. four
hundred and twenty-nine miles are
improved, or eight and two-tenths per
cent Of the total. according to statis-
tics gathered by the government office
of public roads. The improved roads
are those surfaced with gravel. stone.
or with some special material.
The most striking feature of these
statistics is the enormous extent Of
unimproved roads in the United
States. An expenditure of something
like sS,o0O.000.0OO would be required
to convert the common earth roads

TO KILL ROADSIDE INSECTS
Fall When Gold Weather Has
Set in and Vegetation Dry.
CBy GEORGE Il. GLlTzKE.

10y Il. III. L ~ e.
A great many people have the mis-
taken idea that the time 10 burn the
roadside in order to kill the many in
sects that winter in these places. is
in the early spring of the year.
If you will watch closely at such a
place where the roadside has been
burned in the spring you will see the
insects coming out of the ground very
thickly on the warm days.
This proves that the insects were
not killed. Most OF them are in the
ground and the heat OF the fire pass
ing over them does not harm them
and the trash burned from above them
makes it all the easier for the insects
to come forth.
While no doubt few OF them are
killed the majority OF them are unin-
jured.
The right time TO burn these road
sides to do effective work is in the
late fall of the year. after the cold
weather has already set in and all the
tender vegetation is dry.
Then. if the roadsides are burned.
the insects in such places will be kill
ed by heavy freezing. as they usually
do not go very deeply into the ground
but seem to depend on the covering
Of trash TO protect them from the cold.
This is a great bit more effective
in the killing of the insects than the
spring burning.
Not only does the fall burning OF
the roadsides do good by the killing
of the insects that winter there. but 1t
also helps to keep the road in better
shape by allowing less snow to collect
in the drifts as 1t usually does in
places where there is much grass and
weeds.

STICK TO THE TANNING MILL
BY Grading Our Own Seed We Can
Materially Increase Yield Of Our
Small Grain Crops.

No farmer can get any one TO take
the same plans in grading his seed
that he would himself. Some farmers
claim that it does not pay to clean
grain.
1t is a fact that 1t does not pay very
large returns to clean and grade
grain before selling it. but by grading
our own seed We can materially in
crease the yield of our small grain
crops.
