PREVENT S0FT-SHELLED EGGS
One Suggestion is That Hens Are Not
Getting Enough Lime-over-Feed-
ing Is Another Cause.

Soft-shelled eggs may possibly be
a suggestion that the hens are not
getting enough lime. Far more like
ly it is, when your hens start laying
soft-shelled eggs. that you have been
overlooking, and in consequence the
fowls are too fat. Therefore a re-
duction in quantity, as we'll as q
change of diet is necessary.
An excellent plan is to find out
which particular hen is at fault, and
confine her to less fattening ration,
with only a small amount of water.
At the end of a week restore her to
the flock, and generally increase
amount of lime given in food. A Pc
riod Of this dieting. followed by an
abundance of oyster shells is almost
certain to speedily correct the trouble.
When the egg has a normal shell,
but one which is very thin, it is very
good indication that the hen is all
right, but that lime is too scant In
this case supplying oyster shells. or
lime in another form, is quite sure to
make the egg shells thicker and
stronger very quickly.

ROADS AND ROAD MATERIALS
Highway Should Be No More Expen-
sive Than Traffic Warrants. and
Materials Suited to Traffic.

C3y w. NJ. CONE. Colorado Agricultural
College)
Roads and road materials are the
subject of much discussion all over
thN country. Most of our roads are
Jt:H heirs patched UP, or, which is
sail worse. being turned upside down
periodically with piow and scraper,
and soft road is the certain result.
However, some good roads are being
built each year. Roads are a BUSH
ness. If they are good roads they
are a good business. if they are bad
roads they are bad business. A road
should be no more expensive than the
traffic warrants, and the materials Of
which the road is constructed must be
suited to the traffic.
Cobble stones are good roads for
heavy drayage and asphaltum pave
ments are excellent for pleasure We
hicles, but they are certainly not in
terchangeable in usage. 1t would be
as foolish in many cases to have an
asphaltum pavement on a country
road, as a dirt street in the busy traf-
fic district Of a city.

repairs needed in order to keep roads
good, and that is not done without ex-
pense. In fact, the maintenance and
depreciation charges are usually great
er for good roads than for ordinary
roads, but goods roads are worth the
extra expense, and they are, therefore,
good business.
Many people speak of the surface
of a good road as though it were an
arch which must support the weight
Of traffic, but the chief concern in
properly constructed good roads is the
wear on the road surface material,
caused by the grinding action of
wheels and the suction action of rapid
ly moving automobile tires, which re-
move the fine dust and binding ma
terials. exposing the coarser and more
compact material.
Macadam, one of the most famous
road builders, laid down three rules
for making a good road: Q) Good
Drainage, (2) Better Drainage, (3)
Still Better Drainage; or. in other
words, "A good road has tight roof
and dry cellar" Proper drainage to
| prevent water from getting into the
road from beneath aud a good surface
to cause the rainfall to run off before
entering the foundation, will insure a
good road. because a well-packed earth
foundation will sustain the weight OF
ordinary country traffic without break
ing through. II the surface is not pre-
served. the foundation OF the road will
be damaged, and this applies to dirt
as we'll as rock roads, for in many
cases we find that earth roads are the
most advisable kind of good roads and
all that the traffic wants.
1t is necessary to keep the root
tight. Do not allow holes to remain
in the road surface, for if they are not
repaired the water will collect in them
and run through into the foundation
causing chuck holes"

MEANING OF DOUBLE MATING

Real poultry fanciers often go into
details that have little interest for

ing on egg production. One subject
the fanciers of some breeds, particu-

deal with is double mating" or "pul-
let mating" and 'cockerel mating"

familiar with the topic.
This is a result of the breed stand

pie, call for darker males than would
normally be produced by mating
properly colored males with properly
colored females, and they also call for
lighter colored females than would
be secured by the same mating. To
overcome this and to get results up
to breed qualifications IL Is customary
to mate rather comparatively dark
males and comparatively dark females
when exhibition cockerels are desired,
and lighter than normal birds for ex-
hibition pullets. The first is cock
erel mating" the second a "pullet
mating" The breed specifications
thus tend to make extra work for the
breeder. who should be permitted to
breed only for color, form and egs
production.

CLAIM PROOF OF PLOT
ALLEGES MINE WORKERS BALk
RECRUITING EFFORTS.
Militia Court of Inquiry Charges Plan
to "Swap" Indictments to
Free Labor Men.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-Members of q Court of In
quiry appointed by Governor Carlson
GERS, against whom charges have been
brought recently, made a partial re-
port to the chief executive, in which
they allege having in their possession
evidence to show a general conspiracy
to prevent the reorganization Of the
state militia.
They particularly mentioned having
lndisputable proof that the United
Mine Workers of America had secured
detective agency to spy upon the
movements of the recruiting officers;
that the Mine Workers and detective
agency were working with certain pub
lie officials to prevent the reorganiza-
ton of the militia.
It was further claimed that their
evidence included certain correspond
ence, upon which was based their
knowledge of plot to secure the in
dictment of public officials and mill
tiamen, for the purpose of trading
upon such indictments for the benefit
of certain people involved and under
indictment in the so-called strike
cases.
One of the letters the Court OF In
quiry claims to possess, they say, dis
closes the fact that the text of the
recent decision of the State Supreme
Court, barring Judge CRANKY Hillyer
of the Third district from further par
ticipation in strike cases growing out
Of the Colorado coal strike, was sent
to the Washington office Of the de-
tective agency on Aug. o-althoueh
the decision was not handed down un-
til Aug. 16.

the governor consists of Lieut.-Col. E.
