WHAT is A GOOD ROAD WORTH:
w. c. Palmer, Editor N. d. Expert
ment Station

w. c. Palmer, Editor N. d. Expert
ment Station
The average cost of hauling q
bushel of wheat to market in North
Dakota is six cents. When the roads
are poor this is greatly increased.
This means cost Of sixty dollars for
marketing one thousand bushels, or
three hundred dollars for five thou
sand bushels, when the roads are in
fair condition. This could be cut in
half il the hauling was over good
earth roads. The secret of the good
road is keeping the road bed free
from water standing on it. Where
water is allowed to gather every pass
ing wagon makes the hole deeper un-
til the place becomes almost impass-
able. The remedy is keeping the
road bed higher in the center and we'll
packed; and pilirg a lot of soil in the
middle Of the road and leaving it
loose is poor kind Of road making.
The big expense is putting the soil
on the road. The cost of rolling and
narrowing would not add very much,
but It would make q good road out Of
what otherwise will be an impossible
mud bed during certain seasons of
the year and not good at any season.
The one hundred and twenty dollars
that could be saved in marketing five
thousand bushels Of wheat by means
of the good road represents the in
terest on two thousand dollars. The
> good road does even more than that.
It increases the value of the land. 1t
will be moderate to put this at five
dollars an acre. On q quarter section
this means eight hundred dollars.
Then again, the good road will be
passable At practically all times Of
the year, which will result in making
it possible to market things when
they are at the best price instead Of
having to market when the road will
permit.
Good roads have also big social
value in that it becomes much easier
to get from place to place-in fact it
is a pleasure to take a ride over the
good road, whereas it may be a pun
ishment to have to 60 over some roads
that are full of mud holes and ruts
in muddy weather and then when it
gets dry these ruts are ground up into
dust so that the road is never pleas
ant to travel over.
From this it is plain that the good
road will be big factor in the de-
velopment Of the community. socially
and financially.

OPERETTA TO BE PUT ON
BY PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Tho operetta, "The National
Flower" is to be given by the public
school Thursday night, Feb. 18th, at
the opera house. The chorus parts,
as well rs the solo parts, have been
at work for some time and most de-
lightful evenings entertainment is
assured. The argument for the op-
eretta is rs follows:
Candidates for the position Of Ma
tional Flower have been summoned
to appear before q judge and jury,
there to plead each one his own case.
After giving reasons for desiring to
be the National Flower, each aspir-
ant remains to listen to the stories Of
his rivals. Occasionally weeds stray
IN, to the horror Of the assembled
flowers. and CONSERVATION is great
whom IN onion chances to look in
upon the scene. The jury-which
happily illustrates the way judicial
affairs will be disposed Of when wo-
men are eligible to office-acting un-
der instructions from the judge, en-
deavors to decide in favor of the most
useful, rs we'll as the most beautiful
flower. Uncle Sam volunteers some
valuable information, after which the
flowers express their hearty approval
Of the one chosen, and the contest is
happily and satisfactorily ended.
The cast will be published in the
next issue.

OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

Editor Of The Oakes Times:
Enclosed please find $l.25 for one
years subscription to The Oakes
Times. As we have formerly resided
in the vicinity Of Cakes, we wish to
tell the people in and sround Oakes
"Hellow
l am no writer. but wish to give
you little idea of Orange county, in
which we now reside. This beautiful
section of the Golden State Of Cali
fornia has been aptly called the Land
Of Eternal Spring Time" 1t is a
valley Of rich alluvial soil, sloping
gently to the southwest from the
foothills and mountains, which border
it on the north and east, and protect
1t from the cold north winds, to the
shores of the Pacific Ocean, which
tempers the cold Of winter and the
heat of summer, the result being a
wonderfully equable and delightful all
year climate. Covering this valley
are thriving cities and villages sur
rounded by beautiful groves of or
ange. lemon. walnut, olive and other
fruit trees, great fields of corn, beans,
celery, sugar beets, and berries and
vegetables of almost every known va
ricty.
In the mountains are beautiful
canons with groves of live oak and
sycamore. and sparkling streams and
mineral springs, fern covered hill
sides and sweet smelling plants and
flowers. all easy of access from every
part of the country, affording many
| delightful spots for days picnic o,
months outing.
Along thirty-fvc miles Of scashore
are many beautiful seaside res .rts or
hay and ocean front. with clean sand,
beaches. or picturesque, rocky cliffs
and shores, with boating, bathing ant
fishing advantages that cannot bt
surpassed. These places also are cas-,
of access from any part of the county
by carriage, automobile or clectri,
cars.
Orange county has 300 oil wells
which makes the crude oil industry O.
this county an easy winner in tn
race for wealth. The 1918 output will
exceed s9,O0O.0OO and many new we'll
just ready to be turned loose. S
great is the value Of these propertie

In Every County

According to the returns Of the ~
SCISSORS of the state there is no county
but has its acreage-large or small
Of this valuable fodder plant. It IL
believed that the figures quoted are
very conservative and that the actual
acreage is much more, many farmers
and owners Of small tracts near cit
les having neglected to make full re-
turns in this respect. The showing
however is good one and probably
represents proportionately the annual
increase that has taken place. So
far as the department is able to as
certain the largest single tract in the
state is that owned by Mr.. Gussner Of
Bismarck. 1t has an area Of 317
acres and is in fine thrifty condition.
It lies on the Missouri river bottom
land just south of the city of Bis
marck, and is three years old, for the
larger portion.
Not Winter Killed
| It is splendid stand, and although
it has gone through several winters of
remarkably light snowfall, shows no
sign Of winter killing. 1t was sown
without incubation of the ground,
thus seeming to bear out the state
ment that has been made to the effect
that the Missouri river bottom is nat.
urally inoculated by the spring floods
that cover it so frequently.
The department Of agriculture at
Bismarck will be pleased to hear from
alfalfa growers throughout the state
who have been successful in securing
good stand, with view to givine
their methods wider publicity. !
