Splendid Type for Farm.

the shoes and give them daily ex-
ercise in the yard every suitable day.
A grass pasture adjoining the sta
bles is a great convenience. The
stock may be turned in when the sod
is dry and the weather suitable; they
will get the exercise they need and
will keep warm by grazing. Most
stockmen provide winter as well as
summer pasture for their stock.
The driving horses, if used on icy
roads, should have shoes sharpened.
It is dangerous to drive a smooth
horse when the road is icy. The wear
and tear of the nervous strain takes
too much out of a horse, If nothing
more serious happens.
Chain overshoes can be had at the
agricultural stores. Keep a pair on
hand to use in case of a sudden
freeze.
Give the horses judicious feed, daily
exercise and good grooming. When
this Is done the horses usefulness
may be extended for a number of
years.

TREATING SHEEP FOR WORMS
Pests May Be combatted by Pasture
Rotation, Combined With Drugs
Injurious TO Insects.

The stomach worm is the worst
pest affecting sheep. Lambs are more
susceptible than older sheep, prob
ably because the older sheep are ac-
customed to the presence of the worm.
In the spring, soon after Landing, the
old sheep should each receive a dose
of one or two ounces of gasoline, fol-
lowed by a small dose of epson salts.
After a day or two they should be
placed in a worm-free pasture, if pos
sible.
In July treat the whole herd, includ-
ing the lambs, with gasoline, and turn
them into new pasture, and repeat the
process in November Pasture rota-
ton, combined with drugs that are in
furious to the worm, is a practical
method of successfully combating this
worm.

GOOD
ROADS
GOOD ROADS ASSIST CITIES
Merchants In Town Reap as Much
Profit as Persons Living Along
Improved Highways.

Men who have been successful IN
building up large enterprises, men
who have made lifelong study of con
ditions of affairs where bad roads pre-
dominate, and men who have put their
best efforts into improving highways
are unanimous in one opinion-that II
is the duty Of big cities to help in
building good roads that lead into
their limits" said a good roads en-
thusiast to a Washington Star repre-
sentative.
1.-THE cities derive as much benefit
as, If not more than, the residents
along the route of the proposed i'm
provement.
1T has been proved time and time
again that farm lands with a hard

road outlet into the city are far more
valuable than the farm that is shut off
from the city five months out of the
year on account of impossible roads.
THE farmer benefits by easier haul
ing, cheaper transportation, time saw
ing and better social conditions for
his wife, children and self.
THE city benefits by cheaper prod
uce, the opportunity for the rural resi-
dent to get into the city and make
purchases and the merchant in town
can extend his zone of delivery far out
into the country.
"The best proof that good roads
bring prosperity is brought home to
the very doors of Washington by a
comparison of the two states on tho
borders of the District of Columbia.
Maryland has practically finished a
six-year job of good roads building
Virginia has hardly commenced. A
two-hour automobile ride, say to Fred
erick, Md, followed by two-hour ride
through Virginia to Warrenton, will
show a contrast that is not hard to
understand
Washington has profted greatly by
the good roads to Frederick 1t has
brought thousands of dollars to this
city. -f----''o--e-.-
within the past year a good road
has been built to Fairfax, Va. which
is half way to Warrenton. Conditions
for the better are noticeable along this
stretch. Twenty-three more miles are
needed TO put Warrenton in close
touch with the capital. A greater part
of the amount necessary has been
raised in the country district, the bal
ance is looked for in Washington. Just
how far the business and motorists in
Washington will go along this line is
problematical, but that Washington
will profit by a good road to Warren
ton or any other Virginia town within
a radius of fifty TO one hundred miles
is a certainty. Making the path to
ones door easy for the purchasers is
always good advertising. Helping
build a good road into the city that
will bring thousands of buyers into
town is surely making the path cas-

ASPHALT OIL BEST ON ROADS
University of Missouri Engineering
Dean Says Tests Show II Is su-
perior TO Anything Else.

The only kind OF oil used in oiling
streets or roads, in the opinion of
Dean L. ]. McCaustland of the school
Of engineering of the University of
Missouri, should be an oil that con-
tains asphalt. Oil that contains paraf-
fin will evaporate rapidly and leave
road muddy and sticky.
The engineering experiment station
here has analysed many samples of
road oils sent to the university from
various parts OF the state. OIL that
has an asphalt base will give almost
as much satisfaction as asphalt pave
ment, is the opinion Of Dean McCaust
