POTATOES LIKE HEN MANURE
Dropplngs Collected From Poultry
Houses Applied to Small Patch
Gave Large Returns.

Our experience with hen manure
on potatoes last summer may be Of
interest to some, says F. w. Briggs,
in Farm Poultry. We took our potato
patch, just one-third Of an acre, and
covered it broadcast with moderate
coating Of hen manure that had been
collected from the dropping boards.
This was all the dressing the piece
had. We planted our potatoes. and
the following week hoed them once
with horse hoe. This Is all the time
or labor that was expended on the
crop, except the labor Of digging and
picking. The crop from this one-third
acre was just $50 bushels Of extra
large smooth potatoes, and ten bushels
Of small ones. eThe potatoes were of
such excellent quality that they
brought FIVE cents per bushel more
from the Boston buyer than any other
potatoes in this locality. The piece
used was Of easy access from the free
range occupied by the pullets during
the summer. These pullets assisted
materially in the crop. as they kept
the piece well cultivated" by their
scratching, and kept away or ate up
all the potato bugs; we did not use
an ounce Of paris green or bordeaux
mixture.

himself that the policy Of the state
highway commission is the correct
one. Let us consider first of all the
expensive type Of road construction,
such as concrete, or the best grade
of macadam. This type Of road will
cost approximately $4,000 per mile,
and let us suppose that the cost of
construction Is met by issuing 20
year Az per cent bonds. The annual
expense on account Of this first cost
would be about $3.50 per mile. And
these roads will need some malnte-
nance, possibly not much over $50 per
mile per year. This brings the total
cost up to about $3.50 annually per
mile for the expensive or so-called per-
manent type Of road.
Now take well-constructed gravel
road and the cost for this road will
run about $4,000 per mile for con-
struction, figuring again on basis Of
20-year An per cent bonds and the
annual account for first cost will be
about $40 per mile. The cost for
maintaining these roads, If properly
done, runs up pretty high, and it can
be well done with an expenditure Of
about $240 per mile per year.
This makes total annual cost then
for the surfaced road Of approximate
ly $3.50 annually per mile. A COMPARE
son Of these two annual costs shows
$3.50 per mile per year in favor of the
cheaper roads.

EXPENSE OF IMPROVED ROAD
Manifest Advantage, as Well a. Neees-
sity for Good Roads Seems to
BE Educating People.

Within very recent memory the e1-
pense of good roads has been bitterly
opposed by farmers. The increasing
tax rate, due to many. causes, has been
viewed with the greatest alarm. With
In the last year, the manifest advan-
tage, as well as the actual necessity, of
better rural highways seems To be
gradually educating the public to the
viewpoint that good roads are an &C
compartment to the changing times In
the agricultural world. The only ques.
ton now Is whether or not, with all
the vast sums expended for road i'm
provement, we can get good roads soou
enough.

fork in the stick and hook around
the base Of the post. The only pre-
caution Is to see that the forked stick
or plank Is not set too slanting or it
will slip out instead Of lifting the post.
Drive ahead and out comes the post.
There Is no backing up or turning
around nor any tools to move. As fast
as the posts are pulled they are thrown
into the wagon. If many posts are to
be pulled 1t will save time to wire the
chain to the crotch Of the prop SO that
