perhaps a number of answers may be
called for. In this way each member
of the organization is given an oppor-

Cement For Roads

Mr.. W. S. Corkran, a civil engineer
Of the highway engineering staff OF
the Portland Cement Association, has
been in Cecil county for the purpose OF
making an examination of our streets
and roads.
Que of the most extensive and scien-
tiflce studies ever made of any type OF
road is being conducted by this Asso.
ciatio, of all the concrete roads in the
United States. The reports are made
on specially prepared blanks so that
they will all be of uniform character
and will present the information in
the most concise form. This informa-
ton will be tabulated and studied SO
that all of the various methods that
have been used, those that have been
given the best results can be noted.
The Portland Cement Association,
with offices and engineers scattered
throughout the country, will then be
in better position to advise officials
and communities building concrete
roads as to those methods which have
proved most successful.
The significance of this undertaking
can be partially appreciated when it
is realized that it includes a critical
examination of upwards of seventy
million square yards of concrete pave
ment, or nearly 1000 miles of 18-foot
road.
The Portland Cement Association
in undertaking this work exhibits a
broad minded policy, which will result
in not only good to itself but be of
value to every taxpayer interested in
having the most reliable methods of
construction used in the streets and
roa for which he is taxed.

o the specific things which an or
IMITATION may do for the betterment
the community, perhaps the first
yject to be obtained would be to
rive to make the local school the

ave. With this end in view there
lould be appointed a committee of
lie organization whose business it
ruld be to visit the school regularly,
once month, and report to the
aniZation any matters worthy of
sideration by the members. The
anization could thus cooperate

Food Stays on Farm.

Food Stays on Farm.
when animals or milk products are
sold only small portion of the plant
food of the crop is removed from the
farm. The greater part of it is left
in the form of barnyard manure,
which may be returned to the soil.
This is clear when one considers the
fact that ton of milk contains $500
worth of plant food, while a ton of al
falfa contains $3.50 worth of plant
food
with this system of farming a
large variety Of crops can be profit
ably grown and utilized. Such crops
as alfalfa and clover for hay, corn
sorghum for silage, and rye as soil
ing crop may be grown. With these
crops it is possible to practice rota-
ticn in which a legume is grown, thus
increasing the supply of nitrogen in
the soil. This is important, as the
failure to include a legUminous crop
in the rotation is one of the common

Practically all the manure produced

making the soil more productive. 1t
may be profitably applied to alfalfa

practice on many dairy farms. These
feeds are rich in fertilizing ingredi-
ents and if the resulting manure is

CAREFUL ATTENTION TO
STRAWBERRIES IN WINTER
(By G. A. Refer, Division of Exten-
sion, University of Tennessee.)

For best results the strawberry bed
should receive some care in December.
The grower who made a new planting
last spring and gave it proper cult
walton throughout the summer, should
have thickly matted rows; for the
strawberry is a continuous grower,
making new plants until stopped by
frost. The season was favorable, and
in land of good fertility a great many
plants were formed, far too many for
best fruitage.
The best way to thin a strawberry
plantation is by raking out the newest
plants. If there has been level cul-
ture, this can be satisfactorily done
with a hay rake or spring tooth har.
row, which will pull out the slightly
rooted, late formed plants, leaving
the well rooted ones to produce a
crop. In ridge culture horse tools
cannot be used to advantage. In all
cases the plantation should be raked
crosswise of the rows. Garden beds
can be raked with potato hooks, and
even in small fields this tool will be
found effective, though more expen-
sive than horse implements.
The slightly rooted plants will not
fruit next year, but being very numer-
Gus they prevent the best fruitage of
plants formed early in the season, and
their removal is as beneficial to the
strawberry crop as is pruning to
peach or apple crop.
December is a good time for this
work. The field will look as II 1t were
ruined, but the work will be worth
many times its cost. 1t is only to be
done. however, where the plants are
thick on the ground.
When the young plants have been
raked out, cover the bed with a very
thin coat of clean straw, rows and
space alike. The covering should be
so thin that the plants can grow
through 1t In the spring. It is not put
on as a protection from cold, but as
mulch to prevent the scattering OF
the fruit with the soil and sand during
the spring rains. December and jan
uary are the months for mulching
Strawberries.

SCRUBS DO NOT PAY
GULL AND MARKET
Keep Only UsefIa Live Stockholm
Over Your Stock Now.

(By G. D. Lowe, Division of Exten.
sion, University of Tennessee.)
This is the season to look over your
holding of breeding stock and prepare
to dispose of inferior animals. Com
mon stuff often can be run at a profit
on grass, but when we must feed them
through the winter on high-priced
feed, it becomes a different propo-
sition.
Even II you have pure-bred stock,
the same rule applies, since no one
can hope to have every animal APP
proach the ideal in usefulness, and
scrubs will crop out. 1t is better to
castrate inferior males than to dis
pose Of them for breeding purposes.
A good steer is far better property
than poor bull. The young breeder
who follows closely this idea, is the
one who will win the highest success
in the end. Many good pedigrees are
found on inferior animals, therefore,
do not take chance on your reputa-
ton by offering any such for breeding
purposes
Perhaps you have a bull or cow
purchased on their appearance a few
years ago, and now that you have their
ofApring, you see in them a disap-
pointment. In such case, put some
feed to such an animal and dispose of
it on the beef market. Life is too
short to waste time, when once our
duty is so plainly indicated. Never
unload such an animal upon an unsus-
pecting fellow-breeder, for the reac-
ton is certain and many times prompt.
In short, weed out, have fewer ami
mails, if necessary, but better ones.
1t is the practice of only such methods
that hold forth any hope of attaining
the standing of that rarity-the con-
structive breeder.
