A local automobile driver who does as
much driving. perhaps. as any person in
waterville, having covered nearly 10000
miles this season. reports that he never
saw the roads as a whole in as good con-
dition a they are now. While Of course
there are few bad stretches. as a whole
the country roads have been put in good
condition. The patrolmen of the State
highway commission have set a high
mark for the local town commissioners
to aim at and for the most part the road
commissioners Of the various towns have
realized that they must produce as good
roads as these men are giving or that
they will be through next year, the result
in good roads.

Another baseball game will be play
ed on the Colby campus at o'clock
Saturday afternoon tho contending
teams being Fairfield and Vassalboro.
AS these two teams are about the same
as put up the great games in the Twi-
light League series it is expected that
some fast baseball will be seen by the
fans. Both teams are playing high
grade of the game and a large crowd
should be on hand to see the fun. 1t is
well worth the price of admission to
see "Baggy" Allen handle the Fairfield
bunch. The rivalry between these two
teams is very strong owing to their
games in the Twilight League and they
will both be in the game from the drop
Of the hat.

Sources of Good
Seed Wanted.

Arkansas farmers having good
seed of varieties of wheat, win
ter oats, or rye, are urged to
send such information to L. w.
Osborn, Acting Secretary of the
Arkansas Corn and Cotton. I'M
provers Association, Fayetteville.
Many requests for such seed are
coming in every day to the Ex-
pertinent Station and to the Elk
tension Division. The associa-
ton has in the past published a
list several times a year giving
sources from which good seed
corn and cotton can be secured.
This year a list giving home
sources for obtaining good varie-
ties of wheat, oats and rye is
contemplated. Parties having
seed for sale are requested to
Send information regarding the
quality. the variety, the amount
for sale, and the price in small
and large quantities for the seed.
In view Of the present diversi-
fication program in Arkansas,
the Arkansas State Corn and
Cotton Improvers Association is
planning a seed list covering all
crops grown in the state. This.
plan should make it possible for
Arkansas farmers to get good
Arkansas grown seed without
trouble. Farmers in the state
having seed of any of the field
crops for sale are requested to
send such information to the
Secretary of the Association.

For Winter Pastures.

There will be twenty times as
many acres of the clovers seeded
in Arkansas this year as ever
before. On thousands of acres
of corn and cotton fields there
should be seeded wheat or rye
or oats for additional winter
pasture and that would serve the
additional purpose of using the
available plant food for holding
the land from washing and fur
nishing material for blowing un-
der in the spring for humus.
Plant rye or wheat or oats for
all of these purposes. Plant
turnips for the calves and cows
and for the table and plant rape
for winter pasture for the pigs.
Let us stop buying feed.
