Uncut Corn.

What shall 1 do with my uncut,
frozen corn fodder? This is a ques-
ion many farmers are asking. Will
t pay at this late date, with the
lcarcity of labor and the need for
eginning to husk as soon as pos
ible, to bother cutting it? As far
rs the feeding value of the fodder is
,oncerned it is almost nil. After
Hodder is frozen and subjected to
aims, corn stover carries very little
feeding value. Except where it is
needed for bedding or litter--a pur-
nose for which shredded corn fodder
$ valuable-it might better be left
7tanding and be husked from the
talk. The stalks would then be re-
turned to the soil and provide con-
siderable humus and some fertility.
Where this practice is followed, it
) customary to break the stalks
down by dragging some long, heavy
Implement such as a railroad iron or
plank drag, or even by rolling, when
he stalks are frozen. Then by disk
ing thoroughly before plowing, they
an be turned under with little
trouble. We believe it would be
economy to manage the still standing
eorn in this way where the stalks
an be spared from the barn rather
han defer husking too long, and
aecause the cost of cutting is a
aerious matter this fall.--Pennsyl-
yania Farmer.

More Convicts Will Work On Tho
Roads.

ANOStQSs
By orders of the State Board of
Prison Control third SQUAD of CON
victs from the Penitentiary is to be
put to work on the highways under
the State Roads Commission. Two
squads of Is men each now are at
work near the city and the third will
work not far away.
The men taken from the central
prison for this work are picked by
the warden and they are the most
able-bodied incarcerated there. Those
at work have shown willingness
Tor the task and it has been found
that many more than can be taken
are anxious to go, as they want to
see the outside world once more.
The State Roads Commission is
pleased with the experiment. There
was fear at first that the men would
not do we'll. On the contrary they
have picked up the knack of repair
ing the modern roads and go about it
with as much willingness as the free
labor and are just as effective after
they have learned how to do the
work.
Owing to the cold weather the
maintenance work will soon have to
be shut down, but when spring opens
there is no doubt that more squads
will be put out under the Roads
Commission and that the use of a
certain number of men from the
prison will be made permanent.

Legislature to aid counties and town
ships in road building is a dandy. II
is an ingenious scheme. Under its
provisions the State simply will LEND
its credit to county or township
the county or township thereby will
be able to borrow money for road pur-
poses at less rate of interest than
it otherwise would be able to borrow
and the difference between the in
terest the State will have to pay and
the rate charged the county or town
ship will retire the bonds in Al years
It is figured that this act always will
save the principal of the loan. It is
explained in an article published else
where in this issue. If the people OF
Robson should refuse to vote bonds
under the special act passed bv this
county by the present Legislature
there is hope in this Statewide acl
for county bond issue.
