The ram should be purebred and
show breed character and quality in

through him that improvement is Sc
cured for the flock. To be prepotent,
the ram also must show a good deal
Of sex character; that is, there should
be no doubt at first glance that he is a
ram. He should have greater size than
the eve and a decidedly masculine ap-
pearance, indicated by a general burli-
ness of the head, with a thickness of
neck giving a suggestion Of massive
ness. He should have every indication
Of holiness, vim and vigor as denoted
by brisk movement and bold, ener-
getic look through a bright, clear eye.
A breeding ram should not be Excess
sively fat, yet he should at all times
be kept In good condition.

You may know 1t already, but 1t will
bear repetition now when it is i'm
portant that everybody eat literally of
the big potato crop; that potatoes are
an excellent food for your body; that
they are good fuel; that one medium
sized potato gives you as much starch
as two slices Of bread that, like other
vegetables, they give you salts which
you need to build and renew all the
parts Of your body and keep it In order.
Potatoes furnish starch which burns
In your muscles to let you work, much
as the gasoline burns In an automobile
engine to make the car go. When you
have potatoes for meal you need less
bread. Potatoes can save wheat.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
While all breeds have the general
form and characters Of the type in
which they are classed, all purebred
sheep possess certain distinguishing
features which are inherent In the
breed and which receive the attention
Of breeders. These breed characters
may have little value in themselves.
yet they are a mark Of breeding and
give assurance that the animals will
breed true to type. Included in such
breed characteristics are such points
as size, color markings, presence or
absence Of horns and popularity OF
shape. These differences make it es-
sential for the different breeds to have
different score cards or standards Of
excellence which give consideration to
these points. If one is selecting pure
bred sheep for breeding purposes, he
must know the breed type as repre-
scented by the excellence for the breed.
Score cards for the leading breeds
may be obtained from the secretaries
Of the breed associations listed In

Sheep for the Farm"

cred from the point Of view of prepo-
tency in transmitting their good fea-
lures and prolificacy in reproduction.
These qualities are indicated by what
Is known as sex character.
To be a long-lived, regular, and pre-
potent breeder, the eve must have a
strong constitution and show strong
maternal nature and present femi-
nine appearance. The eve should
have finer features about the head and
more slender neck than the ram.

WAR SERVICE OF SCOUTS

Under this slogan Every Scout to
FEED Soldier the Boy Scouts of
America conducted vigorous nation
VIDE gardening propaganda in the sum-
mer of 1917 and themselves completed
thousands of gardens, adding substan-
tally to the food conservation of the
country.
Under the slogan. every Scout to
Save Soldier" in Liberty loan No l.
scouts sold 1865 bonds, amounting
to $23 80, and S.463 scouts quail
fed for war service elnblems for selling
SUBSCRIPTIONS to ten or more families.
In Liberty loan No. 2, scouts sold $751;
S2O bonds. amounting to S102, 0S4. 100.
Approximately 25,0OO scouts qualified
for war service emblemS.
The scouts are now cooperating in IA
nationwide War Savings stamps ad-
vertising and exploitation campaign, as
explicitly requested by the United
States treasury.
Scouts as government dispatch bear
ers are to conduct colossal house-to-
house campaign, distributing war in
formation literature in cooperation
with the committee on public informa-
ton.
Scouts everywhere are cooperating
with local Red Cross, Y. NJ. c. A. and
other 'tar relief and civic service ac-
tivities.

SCOUTS DAILY GOOD TURN.

Jacob Riis called the good turn "the
core of the boy scout movement" 1t
Is this feature itself, based upon the
ideal of service to ones fellow man,
that has helped to give the movement
force and virility and each individual
scout strength Of character which
carries him through hard places.
1t Is not doing thing for credit, not
doing 1t for praise, not always because
1t is necessary, but because 1t Is the
attention one should pay to another.
Some good turns are noticed, some
talked about, others spectacular-these
are very valuable; but the backbone
of scouting is the many thousands of
little good turns done each day by boy
scouts In every corner of the country.

RECORD POTATO CROP MUST
BE CONSUMED OR WASTED

Our potato crop last year is
estimated to have been 1885,
coo bushels-the largest ever
produced in the United States.
This crop cannot be carried over
the 1918 season. 1t must be con-
sumed or wasted. The food stu
alton throughout the world de-
mands that 1t be consumed eff
fectively to relieve the existing
strain on the supply of cereals.
1t Is the one great food resource
Of the world upon which there is
now danger Of a heavy loss.
The department of agriculture
Is Of the opinion that the sItua-
ton demands that farmers sell
freely; that the larger dealers
move their stocks rapidly; that
the retailer content himself " tn
the smallest possible margin of
profit, realizing that he is now
the most important factor In
speeding up potato consumption;
and that consumers buy and eat
literally Of this plentiful food.

BUILDING PUT ON WAR BASIS
How the Federal Aid Road Is Admin
istered-Improved State Laws One
Resuit-Annual Expenditure
Of $500, 900, 900 Involved.

That is the policy which David r.
lieves should be followed in highway
construction during the war. 1t means
that road building in the United States
will be put on war basis; that the
highway which is vitality important
from military standpoint and for the
movement of commodities will receive
priority of consideration in projecting
programs of construction.
In carrying out the policy thus an
nounced there has been sent out by the
office of public roads Of the depart
ment of agriculture, schedule forms on
which the states are requested to set
forth their proposed federal cid work
Tor the 1918 working season. These
schedules call for a description of
rail haul of the materials to be used,
the probable cost, the amount of fed
eral funds desired, the specific purpose
of the improvement. Its bearing upon
the war situation, and what effect
delay of the work until 1919 or later
would have. With the information
thus assembled and classified, an eff
RENT road-construction program is as
sured. While 1t is impossible to make
any definite statement regarding the
transportation of road materials, the
expectations are that the transporta-
ton situation will be improved and
that the shipment Of such materials
Tor essential projects can be made.
Expenditure Of $3oo, ooo, 900.
Road construction and maintenance
In the United States involve an annual
expenditure of some S3OOOO0,OOO, and
there Is scarcely a section of the coun-
try that is not seriously affected by
marked disturbance In road work.
In the administration Of the federal
aid road act Of July II, 1916, which
provides for cooperation between the
federal government and the states in
the construction of rural post roads
and of roads and trails within and
partly within the national forests,
very satisfactory progress has been
made by the department of agricul-
ture, according to recent report OF
Secretary Houston. The office Of pub
lie roads and rural engineering, which
is intrusted with the burden of admin
