ROAD BUILDING LARGE TASK
President Of National Highways Asso-
cIation Tells How a Great Sys-
tenn Can Be Built.

Thanks to the pushful, pervaslve
motor car, American road building has
"got move on" at last. There Is ev-
erywhere the cry for roads. The draw
back has been that, as yet, there has
been no coordination Of these multi
tudlnous enterprises. The president
of the National Highways association.
Charles Henry Davis, in recent paper
stated that we spent last year $249,-
955,987 or more than two-thirds the
total of money expended so far on the
construction of the Panama canal
for road improvements throughout the
country. Mr.. Davis contention Is that
good roads, roads that run for thou
sands Of miles through state after
state, are, properly, not the response
bility Of the state, but of the nation.
He would have the federal government
build system Of national roads join
ing the West with the East, the North
and the South, connecting every part
Of the country, as is the case with the
national highways Of Europe, and, as
history shows, such as was the essen
tial equipment of every first-class
power Of the past, according to the
Boston Evening Transcript.
How would such an enormous con-
struction be paid for and kept up?
Suppose" asks this eminent engi-
neer, ''the government built 100000
miles of properly planned roads, and
at the same time purchased, say, 300

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't Stay Gray! Here's an
Old-time Recipe that Amy
body can Apply.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to Its natural
color dates back to grandmothers
time. She used 1t to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive.
Whenever her hair took on that dun,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect.
But brewing at home Is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for q so cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
of other Ingredients, which can be de-
pended upon to restore natural color
and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair 30 naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t has
been applied. You simply dampen q
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy. =.
Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire a more youthful
appearance. It is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease.-Adv.

The popularity of cooperative cow
testing associations In the United
States is shown by the fact that there
are now 459 in this country, In which
records Of cows are systematically
kept. Forty states now have assocla-
tions. On July 1, 1917, there were
11,720 herds, with a total Of 211 1866
cows being tested regularly in these
associations. The total number Of
milch cows in the United States at
that time was 23,872,2 200, of which
0.91 per cent were numbered in these
Five Associations.
The first cow-testlng association was
organized in Newaygo county, Mich
igan, January, 1905, is still in exist
ence, and now has 80 herds with a to-
tai Of 304 cows. The following year
three new associations were organized
In that state. In 1908 three were Or
ganlzed in Maine and one in New
York. The next year five other states

BIG LAYERS LATE MOLTERS
Fowls That Molt In October and No.
vember Are Largest Producers of
Eggs In Winter.

Hens that molt as late as October
and November are the high layers.
Some will lay into December before
taking on their new coat Of feathers.
Poor layers invariably are those that
molt In summer and early autumn. At
the end of the laying season their leg
Is bright yellow and with little or no
change In color Of plumage or condl-
ton.
Don't coop up a hen that looks shah
by in color and condition In the win
ter, as your best layers will show signs
of fading and a rundown appearance.
Show them favors, as they are the ones
that produce and have the breeding.
II one will select q pen Of late mol
ters and give them male bird of a
good laying strain, the matches from
them will greatly improve the egg pro-
duction.

BUILDING UP A DAIRY HERD
Essential That DaIryman BE Breeder
Must Produce Milk, Cream or
Butter OF Quality.

Experience has taught the farmer
who is In the dairy business. 1t is
very essential that he raise the cows
on the farm that are to constitute the
future dairy herd. He must be a
breeder In the full sense Of the word.
He must be as particular and
thoughtful as the man who Is raising
thoroughbred high-price stock. He
should have definite purpose and
definite mental picture how best to ac-
complish that purpose. Form and
beauty breeding must give way to a
breeding for a fixed purpose-that Is,
production Of milk, cream or butter Of
the best quality, and at the lowest cost
Of feed, labor and fixed charges that
must be met. All side Issues should be
abandoned and his brain, capital and
influence be given to building up his
dairys performance.

LISTEN TO THIS!
SAYS C0RNS LIFT
RIGHT OUT NOW


You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says
this Cincinnati authority, because a
few drops Of freezone applied directly
on tender, aching corn or callous
stops soreness at once and soon the
corn or hardened callous loosens so 1t
can be lifted out, root and all, with
out pain.
A small bottle Of freezone costs
very little at any drug store, but will
positively take off every hard or soft
corn or callous. This should be tried
as 1t Is inexpensive and Is said not
to irritate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. It Is
fine stuff and acts like a charm every
time.-Adv.

PRODUCTION OF POULTRY

The average size of the farm
flock In the United States is 40
hens. If the average is In
creased to 100 hens next year
there will be an increase Of g.
100000 pounds Of much needed
food--poultry and eggs. An
equal number of pounds of beef
and pork would thus be saved
for army purposes. Many farms,
Of course, can have fiocks OF
several hundred, and some
farms will have to keep less.
But the effort Of the food ad-
ministration Is to increase the ,
farm average to at least 100
hens.
1t is an astonishing fact that
there are IN million eggless
farms In the United States-an
economic anomaly and an agri- /
cultural absurdity. Even If we
had. never been forced to go to
war with Germany this condi-
ton would be one demanding
every effort at correction-for
each farm can, at least, produce :
sufficient poultry and eggs for I
home consumption, and thereby
be q more profitable farm. {

Pigs raised by n mature SOW get n

greater profits than the pigs from a
young, immature SOW. To Increase
the number of brood sows by selection

One OF the big wastes on the farm
Is the loss due to mice and rats.

SPARROW OF GREAT Benefit
Bird Has Been UnJustIy Mallgned,
Says Kansas Expert-Devours
Much Weed Seed.

The desplsed and lowly English spar.
row Is In reality as much of benefit
as a detriment to the farmer, In the
opinion of DR.. Mary T. Harman, as
sistant professor Of zoology In the Kan
sas state agricultural college.
"The English sparrow" said Doctor
Harman, has been greatly maligned,
and in many cases unjustly, because Of
Its habit of nesting In barns, under the
caves of porches, and even In attlcs.
"The sparrow is doing much toward
keeping down the dandelion pest. The
birds are seed eaters and weed seeds
are an important factor in their menu.

English Sparrow.

One Of the strongest arguments In IA
vor Of the birds, Is that they consume
large numbers Of termites, cabbage
worms, and alfalfa weevils. The food
Of the sparrows in the city Is mostly
waste material.
"In few cases where the destruc-
ton Of the sparrows is desirable, pois-
oned bait such as wheat and other
small grains may be used. 1t must be
remembered, however, that what will
kill the sparrows will also kill more
desirable birds. AS general rule the
good that the sparrow accomplishes
more than offsets the HARM"

opposite side and disarms the old fel-
