Getting Rid of MOleS.

An Illinois correspondent writes:
"Will you please tell me what to
do with moles which are destroying
the lawn? We have nice lawn which
is about ruined by them. They are
damaging it badly even now
Moles burrow through the earth in
order to find earth worms, grubs,
ants, ground beetles, insect eggs, ETC.
They are really quite beneficial ex-
cept when they cut the roots OF plants
or when they burrow through the
lawn in their search for meets.
In many ways, the most satlstac-
tory way of killing mOles is by watch
ing the burrows early in the morning
or late in the evening. At these
times of day they are most active,
and careful observer can see them
cautiously pushing up the earth as
they lengthen their burrows. A sud
den stamp with the heel, or a STAB
with a pitchfOrk means dead mole.
Traps that may be bought at almost
any hardware store do some good.
Poisoning with bits of strychnlne
crystals placed in small pieces OF
meat, or dead insects, is quite efhcl-
emit, but is dangerous if meat is used
and dogs are around. II moth pans
are dropped into the burrows, and
the burrows covered again, the moles
will forsake these burrows. Really,
the best way to get the best OF the
moles in the lawn is to go over the
burrows two or three times week
with a heavy roller. This not only
reestablishes the grass roots, but al
ter a time discourages the moles.--

LAKE IN THE MISSISSIPPI.
Navigation Greatly Benefited by the
Keokuk Dam Which Created
aI4ake Hundred Square
Miles in Area.

Extending from Keokuk to above
Burlington, in the Mississippi river,
is a lake of a hundred square miles
area which science keeps at the same
level regardless Of the fluctuations
of the mighty river. Whether the
Mississippi is down to very low water,
or up to flood stage and reaching for
the tops OF the levees below keOkuk,
the surface of the lake above the
Keokuk dam remains where it is de-
sired. This is true for the whole
hundred square miles of lake at the
lower stages of the river, and for
high water times it is true for about
half the lake, that between keokuk
and Fl. Madison.
This is accomplished by opening
and closing a variable number OF the
119 gates in the dam stretching
across the Mississippi for nine-tenths
Of mile. These gates conform to
government requirements for the
benefit of navigation.
A large part of the engineering IN
the Mississippi at keOkuk was not re-
CURED for the developing OF the wa
ter-power there, but was compelled
by the war department for the good
of navigation in the river. These
government requirements were very
strict and cost the company millions
of dollars, but no friction resulted be-
tween the company and the war de-
partment during construction. IN
fact the army officer Immediately in
charge is on record that the company
spent large sum on things needed
which could not be demanded by the
war department.
The lake is perhaps the greatest
single Improvement ever made in the
Mississippi, except possibly the jet
ties at it's mouth. 1t affords deep
water navigation for sixty-five miles
of water with little current, and
steamboats, save two hours time be-
tween Keokuk landing and up-rlver
points as compared with former con-
ditions. In this lake is the only real
ly deep water in the upper MISSISSIPPI
Di-deep enough to carry vessels
capable of going on through the
Panama canal without breaking car
go.
The fact that the lake level is kept
stationary for weeks at time during
the navigation is Of great advantage
to the various cities and towns on It's
shores. The great difficulty about
river terminals on the Mississippi is
that a dock will be out in deep water
this week and hundred feet or
more inland next week. Terminal
docks on the lake may be built OF
one fixed height above the water,
with much advantage to loading and
unloading steamboats, by those power
cranes which are essential to an en-
larged river traffic.
All the water in the river goes on
past Keokuk, and none Of it is con-
sumed or destroyed there-except
what is used for tea, coffee and bath
tubs by the Keokuk people. The dam
does not have any effect on naviga-
ton below Keokuk, either favorable
or unfavorable.
All the land submerged by forming
the lake in the Mississippi above keo-'
kuk was bought from the owners,
and although over nine hundred
farmers were settled with by ami
cable agreement, only a half dozen
went into court about the damages
and none of these litigants were CIV
en- more by the juries than the COM
pany had offered them in advance.

"GOOD ROADS DAY" IN IOWA.
Governor Clarke Has Fixed June Is
for the Occasion.

Governor George w. Clarke has
fixed June Is as good roads and
road drag day in Iowa. He will is
sue a proclamation in few days
calling upon the boosters Of all parts
Of the state to prepare for the state
wide demonstration.
The naming of a good roads day is
the result of conferences of autOmo-
bile societies of the state. The COM
mittee appointed to present the mat
ter to the governor was composed OF
A. E. Nilsson, secretary of the Iowa
State Automobile Association, and
Bert Mills, secretary Of the Polk
County Automobile Association. At
ter a short discussion the governor
entered enthusiastically into the
plans.
The boosters expect every county
automobile association and the COM
mercial organizations of Iowa cities
to cooperate i'll preparing for the
observance of the day in every local
ity. The Offering of prizes for road
activities will be suggested as one
method of arousing local interest
Iowa is taking much more interest
in road Improvement and much pro-
gress is expected in this line this
year. The counties combined will
spent $lO,00O,OO0 in permanent
road work, and the townships will
spend several million dollars more.
This will go into bridges and culverts
and grading and paving Of the per-
manent kind. The care Of the dirt
roads will fall upon the road drags.
The honctarc cav rhpra ic no reason
why Iowa, by intelligent work, can
not keep all of her roads in good con-
dition all of the time.
