MOTOR PROPELLED FINIsHER
FOR CONCRETE ROADS

For saving labor in the construc-
ton Of concrete roads and bases for
street pavements, motor driven
template has been invented which is
capable of working approximately
500 feet of 16 feet roadway a day.
The apparatus which is shown in
the November Popular Mechanics
Magazine is carried on car wheels
which roll along the tops of steel
forms used to hold the mixture in
place. At one side is mounted a gas
oline engine which provides the pro
polling power and also imparts to
the template reciprocating motion
which expedites its work. At the
rear the contrivance is designed to
serve as a smoothing tool. Only
two persons are required in operat-
ing It. One rides the machine,
watching the template plank and al
so filling in low places, while the
other follows up the work, mending
small defects In the surface OF the
concrete.

OF
SAPPHIRE IN IOWA

A sapphire Of good quality, which
was cut into gem weighing 3-S
carats, was discovered in the gravel
along the shore of Lake 0koboji,
Dickinson County, Iowa, in 1914. 1t
is described as resembling a piece Of
blue bottle glass worn round and
smooth by attrition and is stated to
be the cornfiower blue variety and
to have a good velvety luster. This
gem was probably transported to the
Lake Okobojji region by ice during
the glacial period along with a
large variety of other minerals and
rocks, and its original home can only
be surmised. Gems and Precious

BUILD YOUR HOUSE ON
A ROCK FOUNDATION

In the Family's Money department
Of the November American Magazine
which are filled with good sugges-
tons for saving, spending and invest
ing the famiy's money. Following
is an article from one who expects
TO profit by the sad experience of
another:
MY father married at twenty-five.
He had a splendid position, his sal
airy averaging from one hundred, to
one hundred and fifty and sometimes
two hundred dollars per month.
HE never believed in banking his
money. Enjoy 1t while you live.
was his motto. Why leave 1t for
somebody else to spend?
CAS- a child, l had every luxury
imaginable and my mother never had
to turn her hand to do thing.
81 often heard my grandfather aG
vising my father to lay away some
money for his Old age or the rainy
tier always laughed and said, Sup.
pose | don't live to be old? WHAT
good would | get out of 1t them?
AT the age of fifty-two the storm
broke in all its fury and the house
which father had founded on the
sands of pleasure was swept away on
the first blast.
His partner disappeared with ev-
cry available cent of the firms mon.
ey, and father was left-stranded.
""Well I remember the day that he
came home. haggard and bent, grown
old in an hour. The wakeful nights
and the hideous days which followed
brought no help.
"At forty-seven years OF age my
mother cooked her first meal.
From luxury we dropped to power
ty. and now father and mother are
sixty-nine and sixty-four years and
have no place which they can call
home, although they knew they are
welcome with us, their children, with
whom they stay.
"But father often says now, What
fool ] was! Oh what fool!
81 am the youngest child and with
the lesson of my parents before me
I will learn to build my house while
+ yet have time, on a rock founda-
ton"

HOW A DAUGHTER MADE HER
FATHER A WISER FARMER

In the November American Maya
zine Stanley Johnson continues his
series OF articles entitled, Youth
Leads the Way. This month Mr..
johnson takes up the subject of Pigs
and Baby Beef, and shows what Won
derful things have been accomplish
ed since getting the boys and girls
interested in the cattle industry.
Following is an account Of a thirteen
year old girl who won the champion
ship of her state, and at the same
time converted her father from a
poor cotton farmer to pig raiser:
There are many instances of sue
cess, but the best of all is the win
ming of the Grand Championship of
her state by thirteen year old Alice
Mccoy, OF Blanchard, Caddo Parish
over all the other one hundred and
eighty four boy and girl competitors.
Her zeal to enter pig club was en-
couraged by a loan Of ten dollars
from the superintendent Of schools to
buy finished Berkshire gilt. Eleven
months old, it weighed FIVE hundred
pounds, A breeder offered Miss Nc
Coy $50 for it, The significant part
of her achievement is the conversion
of her father from being a poor cot
ton farmer to a pig raiser. Alice
made more money from her one pig
than he did from his whole farm,
from which ne gained one bale of
cotton, worth aboutS45. It cost her

than two cents a pound, Her ten

Quality First"
is Motto of the
firestone Co.

When President II. S. Firestone
Of the Firestone Tire & Rubber Com
pany, was asked concerning the new
additions to the big plant at Akron,
Ohio, he replied, Our growth, no
doubt, seems remarkable but more
than any other force our rigid in.
sistence on Quality First, in every.
thing connected with the manufac-
ture of our tires is responsible for
our vast volume of business.
We make the very best tire we
know how. The best brains, the fin
est materials, the most painstaking
efforts and the utmost care are used
in producing Firestones. The one
idea of Quality is uppermost both
in the factory and in the many p'ac.
es that offer Firestone Service.
Naturally, the public is a factor in
our increase, for motorists use Fire
stones and realize that Quality Is
their foremost feature. The result
is more orders and the factory grows
that 1t may keep up with this de-
mand-a logical outcome, and one
OF which we are Justly proud, for
our plant is the worlds largest tire
concern. Quantity in production is
excellent but when Quality goes
hand in hand with Quantity there is
your ideal combination. We feel
very much gratified in feeling that
we are in possession Of that combin.

The commanding officer of a GER

about the persistent untidiness Of one
of his men. Reprimand and punish

Then bright idea struck the col

Why not march him up and down

1t was done. The untidy warrior
who happened to be an Irishman
was ordered to exhibit himself and
march up and down the entire regi

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
AND EXPERIMENT STATION
In Their Relation to the Prosperity
of the State


of the State
The future prosperity of Colora
do depends upon the development
Of her agricultural possibilities. If
the farming, fruit growing and stock
raising communities of the State are
able to grow good crops, and secure
a just and equitable return far what
they raise, all legitimate lines of
business in Colorado will prosper.
The area of Colorado exceeds the
combined area OF the nine smallest
states of the Union. We have more
agricultural problems awaiting to
be solved before our farms can
come to their best in production,
than have these nine states COM
bined. Besides having soil almost
devoid of vegetable matter and
heavily charged with mineral salts
that are practically unknown in
rain belt areas. we have all the or
dinary agricultural problems of the
Eastern and middle states, and the
new problems incident to so-called
dry farming, and to irrigated ag-
riculture, and all these on the tree
less plains region of the Eastern
half OF the State, upon our great
mountain table lands, and in our
narrow mountain valleys, under a
variation OF climate as great as is
found in a journey from Virginia to
Labrador.
The Colorodo farmer is also CON
fronted with new fauna of insects,
birds and rodents with which he
has to contend, and whole new
fora of vegetable life, comprising
many noxious weeds as wellas many
plants of great economic import
ance.
In spite of this variation in con-
ditions affecting plant growth, and
the great need of fuller information
concerning the best methods of
farming. fruit growing and stock
raising, and thegeneral marketing
conditions confronting our farmers
and stockmen, the Agricultural Sta
tion had but SIG, 1000 year from the
State during the past two biennial
periods to carry on it's various lines
of investigation.
The nine Eastern states above re-
ferred to, with systems of agricul-
ture long established and conditions
much more uniform, expended, dur
ing the same period, many times this
sum. Oregon. smaller than Colora-
do in area, population and assessed

work alone, and provides, through

10000 a year for her Agricultural
College. Utah and other Western
states are doing much more than
Colorado for their Agricultural
Colleges. The faculty of the Colora-
do Agricultural College and the
workers in the Experiment Station
would ike the opportunity of doing,
at least. as much for the develop
ment of the agricultural interests
of our State as is being done by
similar institutions in neighboring
states. Without more financial sup
port this will not be possible.
The money now used in support
OF the Agricultural College for it's
various lines OF work should not be
looked upon as a tax; it should be
considered, rather. as a profitable
investment that returns to the peo-

pie of the State much more in dol
lars and cents than they put into it,
besides maintaining great edu
cational institution. A single ex-
pertinent with wheat, recently COM
pleted by the Experiment Station,
promises to save more to the State
each year than the entire costof op-
Grating the Experiment Station.
In bills now before the Twentieth
General Assembly, an increase of .O7
of mill in the mill levy for the
support of the Agricultural College
is asked for, and levy of .04 of a
mill for the support of the Expert
ment Station. Every dollar that is
asked for is greatly needed if the
institution is to do it's work effici-
emily, and with satisfaction to the
people of the State. If the full
amount asked for is granted by the
General Assembly, it will increase
the present taxes by only / cents on
each 100000 of assessed valuation.
If you think you can afford this
increase in your taxes, and if you be-
lieve it would be a good thing for
the State to give this added support
to its Agricultural College and Ex-
pertinent Station, will you not write
to your Senator and Representative,
and also to Senator John Hasty,
Chairman of the Finance Committee
of the Senate, and to Representa-
tive l.. A. Puffer, Chairman of the
