CASCARETS KEEP
BOWELS REGULAR
AND CURE COLDS
No headache, sour stomach,
bad cold or constipation
by morning

Colds-whether in the head or any
part OF the body-are quickly overcome
by urging the liver TO action and keep
ing the bowels free of poison. Take Cas-
carets tonight and you will wake up
with clear head and no doubt you will
wonder what became OF your cold. Cas-
carets work while you sleep; they
cleanse and regulate the stomach. re-
move the sour. undigested food and foul
gases: take the excess bile from the liv-
err and carry off the constipated waste
matter and poison from the bowels.
Remember the quickest way to get rid
of colds is one or two Cascarets at night
to cleanse the system. Get a 10-cent
box at any drug store. Don't forget
the children. They relish this Candy Ca
thartic and IT is often all that Is needed

HON ID GET
 A GOOD ROAD
pooders Who Live on Bad Roads Are Invited to Join With Us in Conference on How to Get a Road That Will Stay on Job.

we are going to hold an imaginary ,oord meeting this morning, or, as we
 ,.od to say when we were boys, Well :,., nlav like" we are directors of a ,.road. We are going to rebuild ten .,;les of county road and we are going .o aetide on the kind of material we .bould use, how much the road will eost. and how to raise the money.
 Although we assume that we are ,a;lroad directors, we are in reality ,be stockholders and directors of this rarticular stretch of county road we arc going to rebuild, because we live along and pay taxes on that road. By holding this meeting in this way we ran get at the main points better and we can reach a conclusion that will save both time and money.
 The first question before the board is how well to build this road, for mon the answer to this question will depend how much we spend. In de- termining how we'll to build, we must necessarily assume that abutting farms are outdoor factories, and that the road we build must accommodate the increasing traffic in getting sup plies into and products out of these outdoor factory farms.
 An examination of tonnage at our local freight office shows that this ten nile stretch is one of our main market roads. This tonnage is found to be steadily increasing. Individually, We Las not fully realized this fact, be- cause we have been busy with our own plots of factory ground. But the ton mage is increasing, and the increase is being brought about by higher effic iency on the farm. It is well to as sume that this increase will continue because agricultural colleges and in- ventors of farm appliances are show ing US every season how to do more work in the same time and get more from our soil. It is this constantly increasing tonnage that has worn out our old road.
 We find further that our factory farms are still far from their maxi mum capacity in production because We are handicapped with the relatively slow methods of getting to market. Unnecessary time is consumed in get ting to the railway freight station be- cause of the condition of this road, and this wasted time subtracts just that much from the time we have at our command. We are thus prevented rom getting a greater volume of products 10 market, although we know Tom facts at hand that there is prac- ueally no limit to the demand for our products, and that we could have a larger share in the world market if a Better road enabled us to reach that market. It is to provide way to put this productive or wasted time into the productive column, where it belongs, that we are now considering the reconstruction of this road.
 Another thing we have learned is mat If We are to invest instead of waste money on this road, we must
The Prescott daily news., 1917-11-21

build not only for the traffic we now have, but for the rapidly increasing traffic as well. It is very evident that we will waste money if we do not oulid Tor permanence. This is proven by the fact that the road over which we are holding a postmortem this morning was done to death by the present traffic. Cold experience tells us not to make this mistake again.
 We have not given, heretofore. suf- ficient thought to permanence, not alone in this matter of road building. but Tn all of our farm construction. It IS doing the same thing over so many times, without returns, that pulls down our profits; and in not keeping this idea of permanence uppermost in our minds and doing the job right while we are at it, we are no more foolish than Johnny when he runs the hogs out of the corn and leaves the gate wide open for them to come in again.
 We are not here to preach about good roads, but to build this ten mile stretch as good as we can make it. Too long We have looked upon our roads as mere neighborhood lanes means of reaching each other and the village postoffice once a week-when we could pull through the mud if we had to.

A PLEA FOR THE CHICKENS

Now when eggs are selling at 4Oc per dozen and when the food adminis- trators are saying use more poultry products; save the meat for our sol diers and allies, etc." let us consider the hens.
 | Where do they spend the nights In the top of the old oak tree exposed to all the cold rains and frosts of win ter? Or do they spend the nights in a damp, dark, dirty poultry house, which is too small to accommodate the flock?
 i Most of the crops are gathered now and men can take some time to work about the house. Why not look into this matter of sheltering the chickens. The Department of Agriculture offers some valuable suggestions about build ing poultry houses.
 The first consideration in building a poultry house is suitable location. If possible it is best to select an eleva- ton having a natural drainage away from the house; for damp ground means cold ground. Sandy soil is pre- ferable to clay.
 { As sunlight and warmth are essen- tial the house should face the south. 1 The size of the house depends on the number of chickens. Five square feet of floor space should be allotted each bird. The building should not be more than II feet wide so that the sunlight can penetrate to every part of it.
 The ideal floor would be of cement covered with a layer of clean sand. The next most desirable floor is the earth floor, which must be kept dry and clean.
 Plenty of ventilation without draughts must be provided. Yet the building should not be so open as to allow too much exposure.
 The roasting poles should be smooth with no hiding places for the mites, etc, and they should be of easy access to the chickens. Don't be afraid of using too much whitewash about the hen houses and coops.
 The chickens will pay you well for proper and kind treatment. 1 Following is a recipe which makes a good meat substitute:
 Golden Rod Eggs-4 hard cooked eggs; c. milk; tbsp. butter; IA tsp. pepper; l 12 tbsp. flour; 1 tsp chopped parsley; l tsp. salt.
 Melt the butter, add the flour, salt and pepper, then slowly add the heat ed milk stirring constantly and allow to come to boiling point. Separate the yolks from the whites of the hard cooked eggs; chop whites finely and add to the sauce. Put the yolk through potato ricer or sieve, ther sprinkle over the sauce.
 This is very nice served on toast garnished with the parsley and riceo yolks.
