what is known as the triangle ath-
letic body OF this county-Delta,

Since Congress has continued TO up
propriate funds for the construction
of roads on the National Forests, and
has authorized the Forest Service 20
carry out the work. 1t is the object OF
the Service TO demonstrate its eff
cheney in this line by constructing
roads which will serve as a standard
in those communities where the work
is done Congress has made this ap-
preparation largely for the purpose of
reimbursing settlers within and ad-
jacent to the National Forests for the
Withdrawal OF reserved lands from
taxation. Consequently. these funds
should ne expended primarily for the
benefit Of those settlers and commun-
tiles that are beyond the reach of
main highways.
Although expenditures can be made
only within the National Forest bound
aries, the state, rather than the indi-
vidual Forest units. will be given first
consideration. In other words. we
propose to construct our roads where
they will provide the fullest practic-
able communication with those parts
OF the state outside OF the National
Forests. fnese roads viii naturally
be feeders" To- the main highway
systems. rather than "A part OF the
systems themselves.
Provision is made TO reserve a por-
tion OF the fund FOR the maintenance
and repair Of completed roads. Earth
roads. unless kept in constant repair,
deteriorate rapidly. especially when
not supplied with sufficient drainage,
II is a waste of money therefore. 10
build roads and then fail to keep
them up. The Service desires TO set
the standard not only in construction.
but also In the maintenance OF roads,
and we are very anxious to secure
the fullest cooperation from state.

Prof. W II. OIin. former member

agricultural commissioner for the Den

was in Delta two or three days the
latter part of last week and during his
stay acre he and Dr 4. +. Miller
of this city made an automobile drive
over this section of the county in order
that the visitor might become better
advised as to existing conditions in
all branches of farm operations as con
Quoted here.
Mr.. olin was particularly anxious TO
learn why the yield OF alfalfn was so
low in this district and he has already
entered upon a line OF effort which will
doubtless prove OF value to our farm
ers in bringing about better results
with this crop. Better seed bed and
better seed has been suggested. He
also made 1t point TO learn of our
potato acreage and yield and was
inquisitive as to the necessity for pull
ing out fruit trees in different sections
of the county. And on this latter
point Il was explained that most of the
trees being removed were of the un-
commercial varities.
Crop rotation is advised by Mr.. Olin
as OF inestimable value in farm oper-
ations. He was much pleased with the
