GOOD ROAD DRAWS TRAFFIC
Improvements Must Be Made With
Expectation That Easy traction
Will Attract More Wheels.

AS molasses draws flies ID the sum-
mer time SO a good road draws traffic.
Builders of highways designed to en-
dure under the stress of modern traffic
should comprehend this fact Students
of these problems have tina past few
years manifested c~ommendable inter-
est in observing and recording con
ditions which bear materially on a
consideration of ways and means. 1t
has been officially noted that where
dirt roads have been improved by a
gravel top dressing traffic has in
creased largely, and not infrequently
that increase has reached 300 per cent,
says Breeders Gazette. Where a sur
face o. bncrete has been supplied the
increass IN travel has been known to
reach 500 per cent. These facts are
easy of comprehension, although it re-
quires just such careful observation to
record them in impressive figures.
They enforce strongly the necessity of
building we'll. Road improvements
must not be calculated merely to care
for current traffic. They must be built
in the expectation that their easy, safe
and pleasant traction will dfAw wheels
in greatly augmented numb@ and will
impose burdens heretofore unknown.
For that reason the greateit caution
should be exercised to seel that the
specifications of constitution are
drawn to meet this enlarged burden.

Get a 1O-cent box.

Are you keeping your bowels, liver.

Even where for convenience and
economy it is desirable to have the
dairy under the same roof as the ice
house it Is not satisfactory to attempt
to combine the ice storage with a cold
store. When it is necessary to use
ice for chilling milk and other dairy
products 1t is better to remove the ice
from the ice house or compartment and
place it in a specially constructed ice
box or refrigerator, rather than to at
tempt to maintain a cold room by stor-
ing the ice about and in contact with
it. The chief argument against the
combined arrangement is that it pre-
vents the storage of ice in a solid
mass. AS a result the waste is much
greater. Again, the requirements of

GOOD QUALITIES OF MANURE
All Growing Plants Require Certain
Food Elements Which Must Be Sc
cured From the Soil.

Some farmers used to have the no
ton that the only reason they had for
hauling manure onto the fields was
to get it out of their way. This class
of men would have thrown the fer
tilizer into a hole had n been handy.
OF late it is difficult to find a farmer
who does not believe in the fertilizing
qualities of manure Manure is the
cheapest and most efficient fertilizer
which the farmer can use upon his
land.
Growing plants require certain food
elements which must be secured from
the soil. All plants require the same
ingredients; but the amounts airy in
different plants. The farmer who puts
his land in good shape during the fall
and winter by fertilizing it with ma
nure will raise the big grain crops the
following summer.
Live stock contains about
80 per cent of the plant food elements
contained in the food eaten by the
stock. This food was taken from the
soil; SO it is only reasonable that if it
is not returned in some form the soil
will become depleted. Barnyard ma
nure is mixed with bedding, which
contains the plant food elements taken
from the grou-ld that produced it's
growth. Naturally this combination is
not as strong in fertilizing elements
as PURE manure; but it has immense
value as a fertilizer. The bedding abb
serbs the liquids, which would other
wise be a loss. The organic portion of
a load of manure is just as valuable
for fertilizing purposes as the nitro
gen, potash, acid, ETC., contained in
the manure Before the organic por-
ton is of value as a fertilizer it must
pass through a process of rotting.
This process turns it into humus-one
of the elements in which many soils
are most lacking.

he was urgently in need of help.
So an arrangement was made. After
dinner the farmer sent his new hand
down to pillow a field, and a few mo-
