FORT LEWIS SCHOOL NOTES.

Pleasant weather during the past
week has made it possible for work
to progress rapidly, both in the school
and on the school farm. Plans and
preparations are being made for the
1 weeks summer term for teachers
and high school students. Practical
ly all the high schools in this sec
tion have agreed to allow credits
made at Fort Lewis during the sum
mcr, count toward graduation This
should make the summer term at
tractive to high school students who
wish to get work along agricultural
lines, or to save time in completing
their high school work. 1t will also
make it possible for rural teachers
planning to teach, to get their profess
of attending normal school. Among
the subjects of this nature will be
school law, school management,
theory and art of teaching, psychol-
ogy, special methods, rural sociolo-
gy and civics. The four girls taking
the worl; at Fort Lewis during the
past winter received county certifi-
Gates this spring, with averages from
so to 90 per cent Manual training
will be given both to those taking
the agricultural work and those TAX
ing teachers training.
Fort Lewis is quite elated over
the showing made by our team at the
track meet in Durango Friday. All
tho only three boys took part, each
placed in one event one of the boys,
Albert Lundquist, taking first place
in the shot put. We feel that our
boys did well, for they have had very
little chance to train, the time be
ing pretty well occupied here at Fort
Lewis. In fact, large part of their
training was done otter dark. We,
from Fort Lewis, who were present
at the track meet, feel that much
credit is due Durango for the spirit
shown by their representatives, as
evidenced by their treatment of the
visiting teams. We We're treated roy
ally and squarely, and we certainly
wish to congratulate the Durango
team on their well earned victory.
Just at present horseshoes is the
popular sport at Fort Lewis. 1t is
even limited that some of the horses
are having to go bare-footed because
all of the shoes are in use at the low
er end of the campus. "Nibs" Field
ing and "Mack" McNamee seem to
be the winning team, and are prepar-
ed to issue challenge TO any team
west of the Mississippi.
The Campus club met Thursday
night at the girls dormatory. Mr..

talk on his experiences in Alaska

there he saw DR.. Cook, of north pole
fame, who was at that time on his

spoke especially of the climate, and
industries of Alaska, telling many
things from first hand knowledge
which were new to all present. Mr..

per cent of improved roads, the in
crease of population in each county
was $1,000. The 'back-to-the-farm'
movement will progress just in pro-
portion to the improvement of the
highways, and the improvement of
the highways is dependent upon ad-
ministration not less than upon con-
struction.
There must be skill in the super
vision as well as in the building of
the roads. Heretofore at least nine
tenths of the work on tho roads has
been done under the direction of men
without any knowledge of roadbuild-
ing, which is an art based upon a SCI
ence. There are today more than 1907
900 petty road officials in. the United
States who have no practical knowl-
edge of the simplest engineering prob
lens that must be solved In the loca-
etion of the roads, in their relation to
a general systsem, or to related sys-
great influence in neighborhood poll
tics and are mighty at the polls. It is
from this incubus that the problem
must be relieved If the country is to
enjoy the benefits of q well ordered
system of highways.
Good roads not only cost a great
deal of money in their construction,
but also In their maintenance or ad-
ministration. 1t has been the habit in
this country to work on the roads
when all other work was done, and
this has meant that the roads have
had attention only once or twice q
year. Macadam roads do not take
care of themselves, concrete roads
should have constant attention, sand
clay roads require daily supervision II
they are to give service for which
they were designed and built. In
France every mile Of road is inspected
daily, and it is the constant vigilance
Of trained supervision that enables the
railroads of the country to take care
Of the business of the country. There
ought to be the same sort and degree
Of supervision of the roads Of the
United States If they are to givo the
service for which they are built. TO
make q mile of macadam road eight
feet wide and eight inches thick, 1,750
tons of stone are required, and to
build q mile of gravel road eight feet
wide and eight inches thick, 1,142.93
cubic yards of compacted, or, 1864 Gu
bic yards of loose gravel are required,
and in order that the best results may
be obtained, there must be competent
supervision not only in the mixing of
the materials employed in the build
ing of the roads of the several types,
but in the placing of materials.
There are 100000 miles of what
are commonly called "dirt roads" in
the United States, and to make them
effective there must be proper drain
age, such grading and alignment
as will make them fit for the traffic
and constant surface 'betterment, and
It Is nothing short of criminal waste
to build roads of macadam and ex.
pect them to take care of themselves.
Undoubtedly the best system Of main
tenance for all roads is that which pro-
vides for the permanent and some
times continuous employment Of
skilled laborers who have charge Of
particular sections Of road, or who
may be assigned to any part of the
county or other road unit where there
Is work most needed.

INCREASING VALUE OF LANDS

Highways Are Constructed.
There r over 400, 600, 900 acres Of
uncultivated land in the United States
awaiting development that cannot be
developed without improved highways.
It has been shown that the value of
land is increased evenly with the i'm
provement for the roads, the increase
running from 81 to 50 the acre. AS
the roads are improved, there is a
corresponding increase in population.
In twenty-five counties, taken at ran
dom, which have contained on an av-
erage only ~ per cent of improved
roads in the decade 1890 to 1900,
there was a falling off in population
of 5000 in each county. In twenty
