A GREAT DIFFERENCE
IN CORN AND ROADS

Just now some of the people of
this county are harvesting and using
very valuable product in their
green corn. 1t is we'll known that
corn will develop enough in this eli
mate for table. use while green, and
many people are planting it on the
installment plan in May and June,
and enjoying 1t for several weeks
as it develops on the installment
plan. If it is all planted the same
day 1t is all developed enough for
use about the same week, and then
1t passes the stage where it is fit
for use. Planting little every few
days for several weeks lengthens the
season for using it at it's best.
A good many people thing they can
only have green corn for a short
time, because they have never ar
ranged to have it any other way, and
they should broaden their ideas
about 1t. A good many people think
that green corn is not so very good.
because they have only used a poor
kind of corn, and have never really
tasted any that was delicious. All
good many do not care for green
corn because they have never had
It cooked and served right. All of

NIGHT GET THE GOAT

wives from having their husbands
stringing beans in the summer time
Mr.. Gagon suggests turning loose
the municipal goat to eat the A
beans. There was proposal 7yfx
some months ago to have a l4Sis
municipal goat to eat up the tin cans,
barbed wire and barrel hoops at the
rear of peoples houses, and along
the alleys and vacant lots. The goat
hasn't been in evidence for some
time; neither has the municipal band

these people should wake up and
get into the game and find more joy
in the, good old summer time.
The way to get satisfaction and
profit out Of green corn is to plant
a good kind, plant it on the INSTALL
ment plan, boil it ten or eleven min
utes-just enough to set the milk
and not bit longer-then fold Il
in a napkin or in some way keep II
hot till eaten. While the first helm
ing Is being eaten keep the other ears
covered and hot, If you boil corn
too long and then set it around and
let 1t get cold and tough you will
not care much for it-unless Won are
very hungry.
But the greatest difference about
corn is the kind or variety. There
are certain points of excellence about
corn that should be obtained. a
small cob, deep grains and thin
tender skin on the grains are the
Things to observe with the eye. Then
as to taste, corn should be sweet and

corn that is being used in the county

cob. short grains with tough skin
and the pulp in the grain has M
taste. 1t may have food values but

SAND ROADS IN
WISCONSIN :

In the state of Wisconsin they
have 700 miles of roads that are
deep sand, and they are fixing them
for travel. Experiments were made
last fall with wild hay and straw
spread for roadbed, and tarvia
sprayed over it. Then another coat
of hay and another coat of tarvia.
In the few months of its use it has
been very satisfactory, making a
tough rug to travel on.
In Bingham county the sand roads
have been covered with clay obtained
at depth of few feet at various
places along the line. 1t seems that
deposits of clay have been provided
by nature in all the needed places,
unless it is along the line of the Fl.
Hall macadam, and we are not sure
that any test pits have been sunk to
see what is there. The clay roads
seem almost as good as macadam,
and are very much cheaper.
Our Latest Make
OF Macadam
The latest job of making hard
roads in this county was the surface
ing of few hundred feet of dusty
road in front of the fairgrounds at
Blackfoot. This was done with lime
rock from Arco via the sugar factory
and was laid about eight inches deep |
The course layer first and the fine |
stuff on top. 1t was packed with the
steam roller, and is the only good |
smooth macadam we have left now.
It may wear out and give way in
spots as the other has done, but it
appears susceptible of repairs by
merely putting on more fine rock.

WE NEED MEN AND WE
NEED BACKBONE

In the town of Blackfoot, at the
end of Bridge street there has been
a how de dol" in the road for a
couple of years. 1t was made by
somebody extending pipeline across
the road and not filing in the ditch
right. There was ridge over the
pipeline, and there was slant in
the road, so all the vehicles that
crossed it had to stand the roll and
the jump due to the ridge. A heavily
loaded wagon going slowly suffered
little from it. A heavily loaded
buggy had better slow down or there
might be broken springs or riders
thrown out. A car had reason to
slow down or remember the place.
Drivers found it was better to do
both-remember the place and slow
down.
The owner of the pipeline did not
return to chip off the ridge and make
the road smooth, and the road over
seer and the street commissioner
did not finish his job. Neither did
the travelling public stop to fix it.
The city and county both had jur-
but they did not exercise
it. A. few hundred loads of earth
were hauled right by the place for
street work and Notwithstanding it
was in low place, where the water
stood after the rains, none Of the
hundreds of loads Of earth were
Jumped into the place to level it up
