behind? War Saving Stamps are
pretty good non-skid chains.
The boys and girls in the
schools here are members of

andeverybody should know some
thing about thrift. Thrift and

Irrigatins an Apple Orchard by the
Furrow Method.

WASH, Is watered four times in each
season with ii miners inches (O.35
cubic foot per second). Three fYrrows
are made between the rows, which are
40 rods long. The total supply is ap-
piled to one-half the orchard (ten
acres) and kept on 4S hours.
On the clayey loans of the apple
orchards on the east bench of the Bitter
Root river, Mont, Prof. II. w. Fisher,
formerly hortlculturist of the agricul-
tural college of Montana, has found. as
result of experimenting, that 1t re-
quires from ~ to IA hours to moisten
the soil in furrow irrigation 4 feet
deep and feet sideways.
In 1908 an orchardlst of Hood River,
Ore, irrigated three acres Of apple
trees in burrows $50 feet long, spaced
8 feet apart. About n miners inch
Of water was turned into each alter
nate furrow from n wooden head flume
and kept on for about 4S hours. After
the soil had become sufficiently dry 1t
was cultivated, and In eight or ten
days thereafter water was turned into
the alternate rows, which were left dry
during the first irrigation.

Few Presidents Rich,

The Roosevelt fortune was different,
moreover In being mainly an inherited
fortune. Its possessor may have added
to It In his lifetime, but, as In the
case of other presidents, most of his
personal earnings in a period Of forty
years of public life were absorbed in
the support Of his family. No other
president has ever enjoyed such ad-
vantages Of remunerative publicity as
Mr.. Roosevelt, and besides his salary
from official positions his income from
his books and from editorial work
must have been large. Yet 1t is a
fair Inference that If these had been
the sole sources of his support he
would have died poor man, as Cleve-
land did, and most of their predeces-
sors in the White House.
This has been the common financial
fate Of presidents, and the example
Of Mr.. Roosevelt probably merely
proved the rule that the office Of pres
ident is not economically productive In
any logical proportion to Its exalted
state and onerous political Qualiflca-
tons.

MoToRcAR IMPROVES ROADS
Farmer In Secluded Rural District
Keeps Highway In Good condl-
tIon Without Effort.

A friend who spent the entire sum-
mer and some of the fall in secluded
rural district was telling us the other
day about how the farmers kept their
roads in good shape in the section in
which he was sojourning. says writer
In Cleveland Plain Dealer.
"There aren't any state roads in that
part Of the country" he says, "and no
brick or macadam. But the farmers
keep the gravel and dirt roads in ex-
cellent shape. Whenever my landlord
took a trip to town, or anywhere, he
used to hitch road drag to his motor
car. Then the car would pull the drag
along the mile or two that he was in
terested in keeping up. He would
unhitch the drag and leave it by the
wayside. On the way home he would
pick up the drag where he left 1t and
drag the other side OF the road going
back. And he'd make n round like
that almost every time he took the
car out"

An excellent example Of such an i'm.
