At tho recent meeting OF tho State
Farmers Institute. held at Blacksburg.
August Z. and 9, the subject OF the
development OF highway transportation
was introduced. A short talk on this
subject was made by the secretary OF
the State highways transport commit
tee. c. s. Mullen. He gave n brief out

Of the highways transport committee
by the State Council of Defense.

MIR. Mullen also addressed meet
ing or the county agricultural agents
after the morning session on August
y. rms meeting promised TO be very
interesting. but unfortunately the
time was limited. and the director could
not permit the agents to engage in Il
general discussion for fear OF en-
rroaching on the regular program Of
the institute.
However, these two meetings fur
nished an excellent opportunity TO pre-
sent the subject to representative
gathering from all sections OF the
state, and doubtless will be productive
or an increased interest In the de-
velopment OF the rural motor express

exercised In selecting only vigorous

HOUSEKEEPING OR
HYBRIDIIING EXPLAINED
Outoreeding Is a term applied to the
practice OF introducing new blood each
year. put such blood must be from the
same breed and variety. In other
words. different strains are used each
year. A. who raises Single-Comb
White Leghorns. obtains the same kind
OF stock from one year and from G
the next, and so on.
Cross-brce ding is introducing entire
" new blood OF a totally different breed
The result OF this cross is termed a
hybrid. The first cross is not so bad
and occasionally 1t produces some
slight advantage in egg production or
weight but these hybrids should not
be mated in any way. either among
themselves or back to their parents.
Therefore. to continue hybridizing it is
necessary TO maintain two distinct
pure breeds year after year, and TO
destroy the offspring as soon as they
cease to be profitable. This occasions
many separate houses and yards for
the sexes of each pure breed and for
the crosses. which is both expensive
AID troublesome
The appearance alone OF foclx OF
cross bred fowls, when compared with
the pure-treds from which they orig
mated. should convince any one that
this practice is not desirable. II is A
temptation to make such experiments,
but unless one has definite plan and
an objective little will be gained

ROAD TO BELT ROANOKE
Norfolk and Western Getting Ready to
Build Line All Around the
Magic City.

ROANOKE. VA. August 17.-The
construction OF belt or detour limo
by tho Norfolk and Western Railway
around tho city OF Roanoke. Va. Is
being considered for the purpose Of
relieving congestion OF freight trains
in the Roanoke yards. A survey is be-
ing made for this contemplated line,
which would go around tho northern
part OF the city, connecting the Rad
ford and the Shenandoah divisions Of
the system. II built. the detour is en-
pectcd to BIO from near Salem to near
Clovcrdale. A heavy grade against
loaded trains would be avoided.
at the same time another report
from Roanoke says that castbound coal
and other through freight trains OF
the Norfolk and Western will soon
pass through there over the Virginian
hallway. while westbound trains OF the
Nirgin;an Railway will go through over
the Norfolk and Western, this plan
making for more effective operation
OF both roads. 1T is said. under the rail-
road administration. a connection will
be made between Salem and Roanoke
and also another near Grove. About
loe miles of tho two lines will be af-
iected by this new arrangement, which
IS expected to go into cfTec: in Sep
