ROAD BUILDING FEATURED IN M.
u. EXHIBIT.
Hog Cholera ana Domestic Science Also
Attracted MNeh Alteration at Uni
verAlty building At State
Fair.

Hog cholera. domestic, science. and
good roads probably attracted more
attention than the less widely adver-
tised subjects among the exhibits of
souri, State, Fair.
Damonstrations In many phases of
agriculture were conducted. but special
emphasis was laid on judging corn and
or. preparation Of hot lunches In
schools, the equipment of the farm
kitchen, testing for soil acidity. and
sanitation in hog cholera prevention. j..
The road building exhibit contrasted
with good roads secured by various
methods. Perhaps the King drag fur
nishes the most practical and widely
applicable escape from such conditions
expandit%re Of money none or the coop sauy
piece Of road in good shape with it.
Other remedies suggested by the ex.
road. plain macadam ' and asphalt ma
cadam. Short sections showed the
methods Of applying the successive
coats of the material to a properly
pansion joint necessary in certain
types of macadam construction.
One section showed the good results
obtained by applying oil to road
whose surface had been broken up
hOouL WV luCuSo uCOp, WhiAC lhC ilCAt
showed the uselessness of applying oil
without such preparation. 1t collected
in pools in the dust was unevenly dis
tributed over the surface. and was also
very likely to run off into the gutter
Another exhibit showed the samples
of the road-building stone. available In
every county in the state.
there is no excuse, for bad
roads in Missouri The drag is easily
from. split logs or, other.
rather inexpensive material. and rock
is everywhere at hand IL the drag can
not cope with the problem successfully.
The need for more attention to spray
ing and pruning In Missouri orchards
was emphasized by exhibits showing
the hest pruning tools and methods
and the materials for use in controlling
the insect pests and fungus diseases.
The farm forge work exhibit illus
rated the making and repairing of
