of governors at a meeting early this
month decided on a campaign for the
day. The club has secured permission
from the State Highway Department
to concentrate most of its efforts on
sections of the direct road from Har-
risburg to Gettysburg in Cumberland
county. Road drags have been pro-
vided for and the great force of motor
lists will drag the roads, dig cutters
and do any work that the leaders move
them to do.
Everybody Welcome
In addition to the work on the Get
tysburg road certain delegations from
the Motor Club will be designated to
lead the movement for the repair Of
Dauphin county roads and these spots
are now being picked out so that they
can be assigned early in May and
preparations for the work made. The
Motor Club will call upon everyone in
terested in good roads to turn out on
May 26 with shovels and prepared to
put in several hours of hard labor
The movement Is not only for the mo-
torists. but every farmer and everyone
living along highways which need re-
pairs will be asked to take a helping
hand. The Motor Club would be glad
to hear from anyone who has any
suggestions of roads which need at
tention.
The Motor Club has spent thousands
OF dollars on roads during the past
eight years and was instrumental in
securing the State road along the river
to Rockville and many other improve
ments in this vicinity.

Reading Cuts Expenses;
Increase in Surplus

March statements of the three
Reading companies, made public this
morning, show that only through sharp
curtailment in expenses was any i'm
provement accomplished over last
year. Gross revenues of both the
Philadelphia and Reading Railway
company and the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron company fell
off. but through retrenchments they
were able to show surplus earnings.
The combined surplus of the three
companies was $643,S45, an increase
of $227,659. The February surplus of
the three companies was only $23,-
331, so that a distinct gain was made
over that month.
The total surplus of the three COM
panies for nine months ended March
81, is $4,S93,421, decrease of S1,214,-
500 from the corresponding period of
last year.

CONCRETE DIPPING VATS
The Most Practical Method For Tick
 Eradication.

The most practical method for tick eradication in Arkansas is the use of the concrete dipping vat and the svs- tematic dipping of cattle Immediate ly after county is placed in the tick eradication district, from 25 to 40 tions of the county. The yats are To- cated so that cattle will not have to be driven more than three miles to be dipped.
 Cattle are allowed free range and are not quarantined in pastures. but every three weeks during the summer season they are dipped at designated vat. Where the majority of people want to eradicate the tick it only takes about two years to clean a coun- ty, however, it can be done quicker The only reason for taking two years is that with some cattle owners 1n- different or hostile, cattle are often hard to find on the range.
 The system of constructing dipping vats and the systematic dipping of cattle has passed beyond che expert mental stage. In Arkansas the svs tematic dipping of cattle was frs, tried by the writer in Newton county The cattle were allowed the freq range and were dipped every three weeks In the fall they were permit td to move in the tick-free area by inspection. and the following year the county was placed to the north of the quarantine line.

first week in March in northern Ar kansas.
 The seed bed should be thoroughly broken and firmly settled. The use of the disk harrow and sec tion harrow before seeding leaves the seed bed in ideal condition Seeding with drill instead of broadcast, according to the results of various experiment stations gives an increased yield ranging from two to four bushels.
 Tests carried for five years at the Arkansas Experiment Station, in- dicate that seeding spring oats at the rate of two and one-half to three bushels to the acre gives best and most economical returns More than with drill, and no less thar three bushels should be sown in this way.
 Spring varieties adapted to the state are characterized by earliness in ma- turity. Northern varieties as a rule are later maturing, rust badly, produce considerable straw and do not fill out we'll. Results of variety test at the Arkansas station have shown that Burt oats lead in yield among spring varieties. This oat is of light dun color and has slender bearded grain. The Red Rust Proof variety with it's various strains-Appler and Texas Red-also give satisfactory results. Early yellow oats-Kherson and Six. ty Day-do fairly well in north Ar kansas.
