Good Roads

The cheap seeds cost most in the
end.
Radishes of eatable size can be
grown in hotbeds in rs days.
Simplicity in the laying out of home
grounds should always be kept in
mind.
The best plan in cutting potatoes
for seed is to leave two eyes to each
piece.
Outside of the hotbed, all manure
used in the garden should be fine and
we'll rotted.
About 80 per cent of the fertilizing
constituents in feeds is returned in
the manures.
Mighty good time to get the accum
ulated manure out on the fields. Some
people say better than winter.
Early peas should be in the ground
now. Try Alaska, Strategem, or Lit
tie Gem If undecided as to variety
Truck farmers and general farmers
growing some vegetables for market
should be more interested in alfalfa.
Sprouted beets or turnips from the
cellar may be set out in the garden te
make a crop of seeds for next fall OF
spring.
It pays to take little time in max
ing rows in the garden. Long straight
ones will make an easier job of cult
waiting.
Do not pillow too early in the spring,
Wait till the ground is dry Follow
with the harrow until the soil is finely
pulverized.

How easy it is to forget to wash
the calf pals.
You can save time by teaching your
COWS to go in their proper stalls.
Plan to raise your own protein feeds
this year and cut out the high-priced
mill stuffs.
Breeding for special purpose tends
to develop an animal that will be in
harmony with her function.
The man who is producing milk for
the city trade should have clear
mind, clean hands and a pure heart.
Few dairymen now make butter to
sell. The price paid for butter fat by
creameries takes all the cream from
the farm.
With corn fodder, corn silage, and
clover, alfalfa or cowpea hay on hand,
the dairyman may consider himself
ready for business.
Undissolved salt in butter is the re.
suit of too little moisture in the but
ter, too coarse salt, or the butter be-
ing too firm when sailed.
Don't overstock the pastures the
coming season. Better pay pretty
good price to get the young stocE
pastured before doing that.
A drouthy summer followed by a
severe winter are the conditions that
will boost the silo next summer as i!
has never been boosted before.
The hired man who is attached tc
the farm by his own family, his home
and regular work is seldom one who
is disconnected with his position.
The dairyman has no right to CON-
plain of the labor problem unless he
is willing to give good faithful man
steady work all the year around.
1t is easier to keep specks out OF
the butter than to get them out

STATE TAKES HAND IN FIGHT
New Jersey Leads in Advanced Legis-
iation Designed to Check Speed
of Tuberculosis.

What is designated by the National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis as the most ad-
vanced legislation in the campaign
against tuberculosis that has been
enacted by any state in the United
States, If not by any country in the
world, is found in a bill recently
passed by the New Jersey legislature
and signed by Governor Wilson. The
new law provides that tuberculosis
patients who refuse to obey the regu-
lations laid down by the state board
of health concerning the prevention OF
their disease, and thus become men
ace to the health of those with whom
they associate, shall be cOmpulsOrlly
segregated by order of the courts, in
institutions provided for this purpose.
II such patient refuses to obey the
rules and regulations Of the institu-
tion In which he is placed, he may ''be
isolated or separated from other per-
sons and restrained from leaving the
institution" The law further pro-
vides that all counties In the state
of New Jersey shall within six months
from April LIST make provision in spe-
cial institutions for the care of all
persons having tuberculosis in these
counties. The state treasury will SUBJ
sidize each county to the extent Of
$500 a week for each person main.

IMPROVED ROADS IN THE U. S.
Rhode Island, Smallest State In Union,
Leads With Percentage Of
49.14FeW Facts.

Rhode Island, the smallest state in
the Union, with an area of only 1850
square miles, ranks first of all the
states in its percentage of improved
roads. Under the direction of Secre-
tary Wilson, very comprehensive
statistical investigation Of the mileage
and cost of public roads in the United
States has recently been completed by
the Office Of public roads, United
States department of agriculture. This
document reveals many interesting
facts. Thus, apparently, it Is not be-
cause of her small size that Rhode
Island is able to boast of 49.14 per
cent. Of improved roads, for Delaware
with an area of 1850 square miles, has
only 6.22 per cent. of improved roads.
On the other hand, Massachusetts
with an area Of 1915 square miles has
40 per cent. of her roads improved, or
very nearly the same percentage as
Rhode Island. The size of the state,
therefore, seems to have little or no
effect on the percentage of improved
roads.
The investigations further sAow that
there are 2,199,645 miles of public
roads in continental United States OF
this vast mileage, only 19O,476, or 3.66
per cent, are classed as improved.
AS stated above, Rhode Island leads
with 1914 per cent. of improved roads,
while Massachusetts is second with
40 per cent. Indiana follows with
36.7 per cent. Ohio. Connecticut, New
Jersey, Kentucky, Vermont and Cali
fornia follow in a descending Order
the latter having 1887 per cent. OF i'm.
proved roads. The states of Wiscon'
sin, New York, Maryland, Utah, Ten
nessee, South Carolina, Maine and
Michigan range in the order given
from 16 to 10 per cent.
Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia
Illinois, Minnesota, New Hampshire
and Oregon have between 5 and 10
per cent. of their roads improved. Oh
the % states with less than per cent
Of improved roads, North Dakota
stands at the bottom with only 0.2a
per cent. Secretary Wilson and ID
rector Page. who Is in charge of the
Office of public roads, are ever at work
on the problems which confront the
road builders throughout the land, and
especially those problems which are
most frequently confronted by com
munities in which road improvement
has made but little progress.

THE OLD PLEA
He "Oidn't Know IL Was Loaded"

The coffee drinker seldom realizes
that coffee contains the drug, caffeine,
a severe poison to the heart and
nerves, causing many forms Of dis
ease, noticeably dyspepsia.
Il was a lover of coffee and used it
for many years, and did not realize the
bad effects l was suffering from its
use. (Tea is just as injurious as cof-
fee because it, too, contains caffeine,
the same drug found in coffee.)
"At first was troubled with indiges-
ton. I did not attribute the trouble
to the use of coffee, but thought it
arose from other causes. With these
attacks | had sick headache, nausea
and vomiting. Finally my stomach
was in such condition could scarce
ly retain any food
Il consulted a physician; was told
all my troubles came from indiges-
ton, but was not informed what
caused the Indigestion. l kept on with
the coffee, and kept on with the trou-
bles, too, and my case continued to
grow worse from year to year until it

could keep nothing on my stomach and
became a mere shadow, reduced from
159 to 1913 pounds.
"a specialist informed me had a
very severe case of catarrh of the
stomach, which had got so bad he
could do nothing for me, and I became
convinced my days were numbered.
Then CHANGED to see an article set
ting forth the good qualities of Postum
and explaining how coffee injured peo-
pie so / concluded to give Postum
trial. l soon saw the good effects-my
headaches were less frequent, nausea
and vomiting only came on at long in
tersals and was soon a changed man,
feeling much better.
Then I thought l could stand coffee
again, but as soon as l tried it my old
troubles returned and I again turned
to Postum. Would you believe it, I
did this three times before l had sense
enough to quit coffee for good and
keep on with the Postum. am now a

There is one subject that I have
never seen much written about, and
one that I think is very Important
the care of milk vessels. / have seen
so many people empty vessel and
take it to the kettle and pour boiling
water in it. I always rinse my vessels
out with cold water, and then wash
with good warm water with borax or
soda in it; then scald them well and
dry, and it is best to have a place
where you can hang them in the sun.

Depth TO Disk Alfalfa,

In disking alfalfa, the depth must
be regulated in accordance with the
character of the soil. On loose soils,
it is better not to disk at all and to
use the smoothing harrow instead. If
disking cuts up the crowns of the
plant it is likely to do more harm
than good, and the smoothing harrow
should be used instead

Good Seed-Good Crops.

Good seed is one of the important
factors in the production of good
crops. Good seed should be plump,
heavy in weight, should terminate
well, and be free from weed-seeds, and
should be pure as to variety. Clean
ing and grading seed grain is likely to
return more per hour of labor than
one gets for doing the ordinary farm
