country are putting in some good
licks on the roads. The Brady

Portland, May S-To stimulate pub
lie sentiment against forest destruction
and at the same time promote santa
tion. the state authorities of Idaho,
Washington and Oregon have endor-
sed unique project of the Western
Forestry & Conservation Association
to supply 100000 public school
children with a folding cup puzzle
which shows way to avoid public
drinking cups and also teaches many
lessons about the forest fire evil. A
square piece of paper. printed on
both sides with tumble of broken
text and portions of pictures in
bright colors, when folded on dotted
lines presents, in a series of four
consecutive completed pictures, the
growth of a forest fire from careless
ness with a match to final scene of
destruction. AT the same time are de-
veloped a series of rules and pre-
cautions, while one side of the COM
pleted cup suggests learning to fold
it out of any paper anywhere.
These will soon be distributed in
immence quantities through the pub
lie schools.

Good Roads Talk

In the up-building of country
towns. making farming more profit
able and rural life more pleasant,
there is nothing of greater impor-
tance than good roads.
Every farmer is vitality interested
in good roads and should give the
movement his active support in his
community. The farmers are the
ones who suffer most from bad
roads for the simple reason that the
most expensive transportation of
farm products is from the farm to
the railroad station. The haulage
to the nearest best market or ship
ing point must be counted as part of
the cost of production; it comes out
of the price received by the farmers
for his produce. Better roads will
save hundreds of millions of dollars
annually to the farmers of the United
States.
Good roads facilitate and increase
communication between the country
and the town and therefor stimulate
business and increase the trading
radius Of any town or city which has
good roads leading into 1t from the
country. Every merchant should be
a loyal supporter of the good roads
movements which means a more
prosperous country community and
that the home town will get more
of the trade.
By diminishing the expense of
carrige and facilitating highway
travel. good roads put the remoter
parts of the country more nearly up
on level with those in the close
neighborhood of the town or city;
they give the country dweller every
advantage of the city while retaining
the greater room and healthfulness
of country life.
The sooner we realize that bad
roads are in reality more costly than
good roads. the better. Good hard
hard roads are the only sure founda-
ton upon which cheaper transpor-
tation and greater country prosperity
can stand. And it should not be
forgotten that the proper mainten-
ance will cost much less than the
necessity Of periodical reconstruction
where they are neglected.

More Hens Wanted

Poultry experts of Spokane esti-
mates that until 1912 100 carloads of
eggs were imported annually into
Spokane. but that during the past
year the industry has so grown that
but IS cars here shipped in. The
same man figures, however, that it
will require 625, 900 more hens each
laying on an average of $50 eggs
per year to completely supply the
Spokane market. From this it may
be seen that there is ample opper-
tunity for more people to engage in
the poultry industry.
