HEAVY RAINS ARE
CAUSE OF TROUBLE
County Attorney Receives Com
munication Regarding Bad
Roads in Scott Township

Charges of negligence on the part of
the Scott township board of supervi-
sors and the road boss we're brought
before County Attorney Cherry this
week in a letter signed by nineteen
persons living in the towns of Scott
and Synnes. They appeal to Mr..
Cherry to get busy and place the road
between sections 50 and "a, township
of Scott, in proper shape for public
travel. Although this is not a mat

done. He has never in his life WELD.
ed pick or a shovel. nor has he act
ed as conductor on road grader. He
is an enthusiast for good road and
nothing would delight him more than
to spend some time shoveling dirt
under the direction of some competant
road boss who knows how good road
should be constructed.
The letter to MIR. Cherry states
SIN regard to the road running due
south from Alberta between sections
SO and "a it is impossible to cross and
we. the undersigned. appeal to you to
put it in proper shape for public
travel. 1t appears to US that the Off
ciaIs of the township of Scott are not
endeavoring to put this road in shape
SO that is will be possible for US to
cross and transact our business.
Following the recent heavy rains
the. road complained of became i'm
passable for distance of half a mile.
Prior TO the rains very little atten-
tion was paid to the dilapidated con-
dition of the road, it is claimed. and
heavy hauling was an impossibility
Last week several farmers were mired
there with their loads. Residents Of
Synnes who use the road have laid the
matter before the Scott supervisors
without satisfactory results. Other
matters have been more pressing but
they hope to have the road complained
of repaired as soon as the weather is
more settled.

BURNED STRAW A
Loss TO FARMS
Every Straw Stack Burned Up
Means so Much Soil
Value Gone
By E. F. JOUBERT
in Wheaton Gazette Repolter


A very common custom when finish
ing threshing is to set match to the
straw pile just about the time the
machine is pulled away. This year,
owing to the scarcity of straw in Ger.
tain sections, very little straw has been
burned compared with other seasons.
However, much more has been burned
than should have been for the good of
the farms and community. Perhaps
one of the reasons why much of the
straw has been burned is that the
amount of stock on tn. farm is not
sufficient 10 utilize all of the straw.
However, this is very poor excuse,
as the starw is too valuable as a
fertilizer to burn. When we stop to
consider the value of oats and wheat
straw if we were to buy the fertiliz-
ing elements which they contain,
namely nitrogen, phosphorus and pot
ash, on the market as commercial
fertilizer. we find that we would have
to pay for oat straw about So. 80 per
ton and for wheat straw about So. so.
When we compare these values to those
of fresh manure which is worth So IL
per ton and barnyard manure which is
worth 1924 per ton, We readily see
that we might just as we'll take the
money and destroy it as to burn its
equivalent in straw. The straw is a
very valuable asset to the land in the
form of humus, to say nothing about
the three elements named above. There
is machinery on the market today
which is used for spreading the straw
directly on the fields and letting it rot
down, or the threshing might we'll be
done in the stack yard and there let
the straw rot down and then haul it
out to the fields. In these days of
prices for produce and labor, it
is necessary that we get as large
return from the land as possible.
In order to do this we must keep
the fertility of the land up to a
high standard. By continually wheat
ing a piece of ground or by growing
any other crop year after year and not
returning anything to the land in the
from of fertilizers, we are to so dist
pate the soil that very little can be
grown there in just few years. This
condition is very common on many
farms in this county at the present
tine. and some of the ways to guard
against it becoming widespread is to
save the straw and return it to the
land.

economics will be made.
