Argument in Favor Of Retention Of
Present Highway System.

Fort Dodge, March &C.. $50 How the
thirty miles Of county roads built last
year stood the winter Is of interest to
every autoist and farmer in the coun-
ty, and they number most ct Webster
county's population.
According to County Engineer G. y.
Smith, the new roads are at least ten
days ahead Of the unimproved. The
heavy SHOWS followed by quick thaws
left the roads in Dad condition. The
new roads are reported as in At con-
dition for auto travel while the UNI
touched highways are still muddy and
in poor shape.
4 The fact that the high graded roads
withstood the winter shows the value
of that kind Of construction. The roads
are graded up to the crown about three
feet above the side ditch.
The county has purchased machine
especially for the maintenance OF the
new graded roads. It is q combined
leveler and roller which will drag the
entire width Of the road at one time
The machine consits of two heavy
steel dragging arms beh1nd Wnlcn IS an
eight ton roller. Earth dragged to the
center of the highway by the arms Is
rolled down where it is most needed.
This machine cost the county $500. 1t
will also be used during the construc-
ton period to keep them in shape for
travel.
The county has closed all the drag
ging contracts for the year. The board
is experimenting on the possibilities Of
small tractors to do the work Of horses.
For this experiment the road running
between Harcourt and Gowlie, dis
lance Of four miles, was selected 1t
will be dragged during the year by a
tractor, using two drags, which will
cover the whole road in one trip. If the
experiment proves successful 1t is pos
sible the use Of tractors may become
more general.

Council Bluffs, March 2s. ~ From
many different sources comes the same
story of the fine condition Of the Or
chards of southwestern Iowa, and es-
pecially those in the immediate vicinity
of Council Bluffs, indicating q bumper
crop OF apples and other fruit this fall.
This OF course takes no possible &C
count OF possible frosts later on, and
there will be much damage, doubtless.
from different fruit pests in those or
chards that are not sprayed properly.
The buds have been swelling more or
less for month past, and the early
spring indications are Of the very pest.
Some Of the buds from the trees at the
state farm have been sent to the horti-
cultural laboratories at Apes, and the
scientific decision was exactly In keep
ing with the opinion Of the local fruit
growers, based on their many years OF
experience.
While some Of the other orchards
have OF years, the orchard at the state
farm, with Its excellent care. including
thorough and proper spraying and
scientific pruning, seems to produce q
good crop every year. Last year was
IN measure an of season with many
OF the privately-owned orchards In this
vicinity. and in several instances these
men state that the advance indications
point to great crop this year.

superintendent, points out that differ

Probably the Jonathans, the Missouri
Pippins and the Winesaps are in the

Mr.. Dorland.
