Plan for Good Roads.

RAN TOT 1Ooo HodQ0.
II am heartily in sympathy with
the plan for good roads in Iowa." said
W. E. Meyer, president of the Iowa
Automobile Association. "The roads
we now have in some parts of the
state will do we'll enough until We
can have gravel or crushed rock sur
faced roads, but there is no doubt
that the latter are what we want and
must come to. Of the two materials,
gravel and crushed rock, l consider
crushed rock much the better. 1
noticed this particularly in a recent
trip across Michigan where they have
both forms of surfacing. On the
gravel roads we could go not moro
than twenty miles an hour, while on
the crushed rock roads it was easy
to make fifty miles. With high speed
traffic passing over them. gravel
roads have greater tendency to cup
out and become rough.
'The plan of uniting county seats
will be easy to carry out. At the
present time most of the county seats
are united by dragged roads which
can be converted into graveled roads
at no great expense. The roads can
be cut out about eight inches in the
center and surfacing material filed
in"

Gain In Timothy and Glover.


An increase of "a per cent in the
yield of Iowa timothy this year over
last is predicted. Clover is also slat-
ed to exceed the returns of last
year, present indications pointing to
an increase Of about 40 per cent
over last years yield.
While the weather this year has
up to this time been almost ideal for
pasture growing and while a huge
crop OF both corn and clover is ex-
pected the huge increase in the yield
is due to the fact that last year was
one of the worst for hay that had
been encountered in many years rath.
er than the fact that the yield this
year will be SO far above the aver
age. Iowa will not be alone in the
excellence Of it's hay crop, for pas
turage is reported as being in good
growth condition, for the season in
practically all the central states.
