Hard Blow To Road Work.

The inability of the railroads to fur
nish cars for hauling gravel is going
to cost the state of Mississippi heav-
lily. Contracts for millions of dollars
worth of work has been let during
the past year and the roadbeds have
in many cases been prepared for the
top dressing. This dressing was to be
of gravel. but the gravel is not to be
had. and 1t is feared that the work al
ready done will be washed away before
the winter rains have stopped. x. A.
Kramer, chief engineer, said that more
than S7,00O,OOO worth Of road construc-
ton was in contemplation and that a
large amount OF money was available.
but was next to useless, as cars are
not to be had to transport the gravel
necessary for their completion.

PAGE'S WEEKLY LETTER

! this year. One is corn and the 1 other is hay. In case of emer-
 gency, corn will answer the pur- pose for breadstuff. The 1917
 wheat crop is going to be short. ] The price of flour is now outra- ! geously nigh and will go higher. Those who have wheat should
 not sell 1t. but have it ground in
 to four and keep 1t to sell to the
 neighbors, for there may come a
 time when you cannot get flour
 shipped for love or money. Corn
 is good for making breadstutf and is also the basis of all of the best stock feed. It is almost in dispensable. because It IS the sure and easy means of making a balanced ration for stock. We must have some corn for our stock. We must have corn to finish our killing hogs. We can put fat on hogs with peanuts, bran. shorts, peas, sweet pota- toes. rice bran and polish and ! other products. but 1t takes corn to finish and harden the flesh [ and make pork, and pork we must have. In the matter of feed for stock, nothing IS more essential or useful than hay. The greatest trouble with our farm CTS is that they do not provide enough pasture for summer and hay for winter. Pasture grass is the most profitable crop where it IS needed, because it IS crop that requires no harvesting, as it is harvested by the stock that eat it. Hay is produced with little labor and expense. and IS valuable for feed and takes the place of more expensive feed. Cow pea hay is always good if properly cured and has about the best feeding value of any of our hays. In addition. a COW pea crop helps the land. A good plan is to SOW COW peas early and cut for hay, and let the second growth come 80 as to turn 1t un- der in the early fall for the ben eft of the land. A good plan is t. plant COW peas on all your poor land. You will lose the least amount in labor and gain the greatest amount in feed val ue from a pea crop on poor land. Cow peas should be planted with corn at next to the last blowing in June, and the peas should be picked and hulled for seed or food the following year. Your COW pea land can be sown to clo- yer this fall and it will make you good pasture for stock next spring and summer when corn IS high and scarce,
 By all means do not plant too much of perishable crops Take pains to put in plenty of Sweet potatoes and late Irish potatoes
 By using care you can keep both through the winner. Do not sell a milk COW or brood SOW at all. Keep both. If you have more of either than you need let your nei4hbor have them. but do net sell either to be shipped out of the country. Put in some pea nuts. Peanuts will be good price this fall. Remember, pea nuts will keep all the year. There never was year when ,... Loj r ,,x,>l,,o of Daaputs and

some time ago raised the objection
that the subway proposed would not
be weatherproof. That will be en-
tirely overcome as we'll as those re-
lating to drainage, lighting and stair
way arrangement. What the plans
specify will give Fargo q fine en-
closed subway somewhat similar to
the general plan of the Spokane ar
rangement 1t will be entirely en-.
closed, weather proof, illuminated, and
built so water will run off nicely.
These plans call for a slightly con.
struction that will be strong in every
detail and will last as long as any
permanently constructed subway. The
company wants to cooperate with the
city OF Fargo in getting the traffic OBJ
struction out of the way and this can
be done by building the subway un-
der Tenth street. 1t will mean the
opening Of new traffic highway that
certainly ought to develop the bust
ness section of this city to a marked
degree. OO

pared by the engineering department.

Northern Pacific Official
Sees Great Development
In the City Of Fargo

Stopping for day in Fargo, Dan
G. Pettibone, general baggage agent
Of the Northern Pacific railway, to-
gether with c. A. Stedman. the roads
publicity representative. today took
occasion to pay high compliment to
the city. They said they had noticed
a wonderful development both in a
business way as well as in civic bet
terment during the last year.
Fargo is bound to continue to be
one OF the most progressive cities to
be found anywhere between the twin
cities and the Pacific coast" said Mr..
Pettibone. Its strategic location and
the enterprise Of the people here COM
bine to make its growth steady. Any
body who has been in other parts Of
the country cannot help but realize
too, that the Northwest is the favored
part OF the country from the stand
point of prosperity in spite OF the
fact that 1915 crops may not have
been as bountiful as in former years"
Asked as to the Northern Pacific's
plan for a subway on Tenth street,
Mr. Pettibone said:
"While this matter is not within
my Jurisdiction I do know that the
officials of the Northern Pacific are
anxious to do everything in their
power to relieve the traffic congestion
and are now having plans perfected
which will soon be submitted to the
city of Fargo. e.

WOULD ESTABLISH
STATE GAME FARM
STATE GAME AND FISH COMMITS.
SION TOOK ACTION AT MEET.
ING YESTERDAY AFTERNOON
LOOKING TO STOCKING THE
STATE WITH BIRDS.

The state game and fish commission,
which held meeting in this city yes
terday late in the afternoon, took
steps for the establishment of a state
game bird farm that will be located
somewhere between Bismarck and
Steele and will be operated something
In the same manner that the state
fish hatchery at St. John is operated.
The plan Of the board is to eouip a
farm where various kinds of game
birds may be Matched and brought to
state of development where they
may be turned loose in sections OF
the state, now very short of such game
Such farms have been operated with
success In other states and the plan
could be followed out in North Dako-
Ia with very little cost. Aside from the
lincubators. breeders and other equip
ment about the only expense after
ward would be the salary of the per-
son in charge.
The board is financially able to
handle proposition Of this sort as
the last biennial report showed that
there is approximately $4,000 in the
commissions treasury.
To start with it is planned to secure
eggs from other game farms in other
states, but once well started the farm
will produce enough eggs to meet the
demands.
