verts are being constructed before ex-
pensive road s~urfacing is done, says
Indiana Farmer.
This work Is often paid for out of
the annual tax levy for road and
bridge construction, and absorbs such
a large part Of the funds that too little
money is left for grading the surface
ing. Good bridges and culverts are
permanent structures. and the deputy
minister Of highways of Ontario, Hon.
W. A. Mclean, has advised the taxpay-
ers of that province to pay for them
by a bond issue where the total ex-
penditure for the purpose is large. In
such a case he suggests compiling n
complete list of the bridges and cul-
verts needed, preparing plans and es-
Inmates for their construction, and
then financing the work so that it's
cost will be equitably distributed over
a period of years rather than be con-
centrated on the taxpayers of q few
years. Where there are few of these
structures and none is expensive, the
policy of paying for them out of the
annual tax levy cannot be criticized,
in his opinion, for it does not interfere
arpreciably with satisfactory progress
in grading, drainage, s%urfacing and
maintenance.

SAVE COST OF MAINTENANCE
Highways Which Cost Most at First
Are Always Cheapest to Keep
in Good Condition.

(By r.. w. GAY. Mississippi Experiment
Station.)
With the recently awakened interest
In the cause of good roads the ques-
ton of financing road building is of
first Importance. How road building
can be paid for Is not the only serious
question, however, but which one of
several possible methods of construc-
ton will best suit the needs of the
community and give the people the
best roads at as small cost as possible
within the limit of the available funds.
The first cost may be only a small
part of the total. Roads must be
maintained in good condition, and the
cheapest road Is the one that costs
least per year to build and keep in
shape for travel. In New York state
1t was found cheaper to expend $4,000
a mile in the construction of brick
highways than to pay from $500 to
$4,000 a mile for macadam because
Of the difference in cost of upkeep.
To save maintenance expense the
idea of present economy must not be
allowed to O~vershadOw the importance
of building permanent highways. As
a rule the roads which cost the most
at first will be the cheapest to main
tain.

staircase is built has a cased opening
into the living room. The fireplace in
this room is tucked cOzily into a cor
ner and a little seat is built against the
wall at n side of it. A cased opening
leads back to the dining room, which is
built into the cOrne of the hOuse-the
ideal situation for this room. A first
floor bedroom, which would make an
excellent den if not needed for other
purposes, Is entered from the dining
room.
The kitchen with its connecting
pantry is well arranged to meet the
demands of the critical housewife. A
work table is built beneath the pantry
window and the cupbOards are handily
located on either side. The refrigera-
tor may be placed in the pantry, and
an opening is provided so that it is
iced from the landing at the top of the
short flight of steps leading from the
grade entrance.
Three very large bedrooms are pro-
vided on the second floor. Each has a

both ends. The bath is centrally To-
Gated off the hall at the head of the
stairs.
The view also shows a neat and in
expensive twO-car garage built on the
rea lot line. The garage is painted
white to conform with the lower part
of the house with which it Is in line.
A house finished as this one is, re-
quires the use of dark-leaved shrub
berry near the building. The reason is
that the upper dark walls need to be
balanced by a mass of dark color near
the ground. The effect is carried along
by building the foundation walls above
grade of some dark-cOlored material
such as may be found among the many
patterns of modern rough-texture face
brick.

PUREBRED IS MOST
VALUABLE OF STOCK
Reason Is Because He Has Been
Bred for So Many Years
Without Mixing Blood.

Animal Husbandry. Oklahoma A.. and
NJ. College, Stillwater.)
The purebred is valuable because he
has been bred for so many years with
out the admixture of any other blood.
and because each male representing
a pure breed is possessed of the power
to transmit the breed characteristics
of his kind. Purebred also means that
there is a continuous line of purebred
individuals back of him.
II must be remembered that where
grade stations or grade bulls are used,
no progress is made. 1t is the pre-
potency of the breeding that makes it
possible for the Angus bull to sire a
large proportion of black polled calves
from different cOlored or horned
native cows. The purebred is valuable
in grading up. The progress in grad
ing ceases as soon as the purebred sire
is discontinued. Some people are
often misled by the fact that OCCASION
ally a half-blood Is a splendid indi-
vidual, and as far as all outward ap-
pearances are concerned, may be bet
ter than many p%urebreds.
The undesirable qualities inherited
from the grade sire may not show up
in the first generation. but the worst
feature is that they will continue to
show up for several generations after.
The value of a purebred is fundamen-
tally based On the ability of the animal
to transmit the desirable character
istics.

BRED AT A GOVERNMENT REmovNr DEPOT.

The pulse Of a horse may be counted
and It's character determined at any
point where a large artery Is close to
the skin and above a hard tissue, such
as a bone, cartilage, or tendon. The
most convenient place for taking the
pulse is at the jaw. The external max
Hilary artery run from between the
jaws, around the lower border Of the
jawbone, and up on the outside Of the
tawbone to the face. 1t Is located i'm
mediately in front of the heavy mus
cles of the cheek. Its thrOb can
be felt most distinctly just before it
turns around the lower border Of the
jawbone. The balls of the first and
second or of the second and third
fingers should be pressed lightly on the
skin over this artery when its pulsa-
tons are to be studied.
The normal pulse of the healthy
horse varies in frequency as follows:

LONG ROADWAY OF CONCRETE
Remarkable Example Of Uses Of That
Material in CaIifornia-Cost
Almost 1895, 000.

Under supervision of the California
state highway commission there has
just been completed the longest con-
crete roadway in the world, a remark
able example Of the uses of that ma
terial. 1t is a little more than three
miles long, a trestle construction, and
cost almost $395,OOO. The trestle is 20
feet high and was built in units with
a roadway 81 feet wide. 1t is sup
ported on reinforced concrete piles,
each weighing from three to five tons,
and the floor is made of "pre-cast"
slabs. All the parts were put togeth-
er SO carefully that the completed
structure is practically a monolith.

are not able to produce pleasing sur
rOundings for the house, for they have
proved their ability to do SO. Because
it is impossible for some lovers of
beauty to go where nature has provid-
ed it, the work of the landscape archi-
tect is very important. The small
town blessed with natural beauty is,
then, not so much to be considered as
the only possible site for the building
of a beautiful home rs it Is to be con-
sidered as a spot which offers advan-
tages hard to obtain in imitation of ma
ture, unless a large sum of money is
available for the purpose.
The question might be asked, "Why
not go to the country where natures
work has not been marred by the in
roads of civilization" A logical ques-
ton, and in some cases the affirmative
answer is unquestionably the right one.
The man who comes from the city,
however, OF even the town, has been
brought up in close touch with the peO-
pie around him. His habits have been
formed in the influence of society. Put
him and his family away from the rest
of the community and the result is

of the heart. In making this examina-
ton, n may apply the left ear ove
the heavy muscles Of the shoulder back
of the shoulder joint, and just above
the point of the elbow, or, If the
sounds are not heard distinctly, the
left foreleg may be drawn forward by
an assistant and the right ear placed
against the lower portion of the chest
wall that is exposed in this manner.
The first sound of the heart occurs
while the heart muscles is contract
fng and while the blood Is being forced
from the heart and the valves are rem
dered taut to prevent the return of the
blood from the lower to the upper
chambers. The second sound follows
quickly after the first and occurs dur
ing rebound Of blood in the arteries,
causing pressure In the aOrta and ten
sions of the valves guarding its open
ing into the left ventricle. The first
sound is of a high pitch and is longer
and more distinct than the second. Un-
der the influence of disease these
sounds may be altered in various
ways.
Temperature.
The temperature of the horse Is de.
termined roughly by placing the fingers
in the mouth or between the thighs or
by allowing the horse to exhale against
the cheek or back of the hand. In ac-
curate examination, however, these
means of determining temperature are
not relied upon, but occurs Is had to
the use of the thermometer. The Their
mometer used for taking the tempera-
ture of a morse is n self-registering
clinical thermometer, similar to that
used by physicians, but larger, being
from five to six inches. The tempera-
ture of the animal Is measured in tho
rectum.
The normal temperature of the horse
varies somewhat under different con-
ditlons. 1t is higher in the young ami
NAL than in the old, and is higher in
hot weather than in cold. The weather
and exercise decidedly influence the
temperature phy~siologically. The nor
NAL temperature varies from 99.5
to 101 degrees Fahrenheit. If the tenn
perature rises to 1925 degrees the
horse is said to have a low fever; If
the temperature reaches 104 degrees,
the fever is moderate; If it reaches
1O6 degrees it is high, and above this
point it is regarded as very high. In
some diseases, such as tetanus or sum
stroke, the temperature goes as high
as 1OS or 40 degrees. In the ordi-
nary infectious diseases it does not
often exceed JOG degrees. A tenn
perature of 1918 degrees and above Is
very dangerous and must be reduced
promptly if the horse is to be saved.
