the proper season, Is put first among
the advantages by q large percentage
of the farmers. Other advantages men
toned are:
Ability to do thorough work, espe.
cially in hot weather, when horses are
ut disadvantage.
Saving in man labor, doing away
with more or less hired labor and
enabling one man to farm larger
acreage than he can with horses.
Economy.
This last advantage is mentioned by
a larger percentage Of Dakota farmers
than Of farmers in other states where
similar Investigations Of the tractor
have been made. This Is doubtless be.
cause the cropping system followed In
the Dakotas Is such that the tractor
can be used to advantage for more Of
the farm work than in most ether
parts of the country
The principal disadvantage Of the
tractor, according to the reports made
By these farmers, Is its injurious effect
on moist soil. This difficulty is = Sc
rious one In districts where the soil Is
heavy and where II Is necessary TO do
considerable amount OF work in
early spring.
Difficulty Of operation seems TO rank
next as a disadvantage. A large per.
centage Of farmers emphasize 1t. 9th.
er disadvantages mentioned are ex'
pense Of operation, undue increase In
Investment, and delays on account OF
engine trouble.
In comparing the reports upon which
this bulletin is based with those OBJ
tanned from tractor owners in various
parts of the corn belt several years
ago 1t appears that less stress Is laid
upon the disadvantages OF the tractor
In the recent reports than in the older
ones.

GREAT ROAD BUILDING YEAR
Thousands Of Miles Of Improvement
Arranged and More VIII
Surely Follow.

From the passage Of the federal
aid road act to December 10, 1913,
700 projects were approved by the
secretary OF agriculture. These
projects involve the improvement Of
1857 miles Of public roads at a total
estimated cost Of So, 832, 900, Of which
the federal government has been re-
quested to contribute $21, 602, 900.
There have been actually completed
to date twelve projects, involving a
total of fifty-one miles Of road, cost
ing approximately $617.548, and on
which federal aid in the amount of
$260,660.19 was paid.
Altogether there are more than
1900 miles Of road, for which most
Of the steps preliminary to construc.
ton have been taken so far as the
bureau Of public roads is concerned.
Numerous other projects not yet re-
ported to the department have been
completed or are under construction,
so that the sum total of the road
work now In progress under federal
aid Is greater than appears In this
summary.
From Florida to Maine, through the
North to the Pacific coast and down
to Mexico road building work is 60
ing on. Every state has accepted its
contribution from the government,
and Wilde no organized effort has
been made along those lines to the
present time tho states are working

ASKS HONESTY
FOR SOLDIERS
(By Associated Press)

London, Feb. 18 (By maiD-Seated
N a chair in the House of Commons
today, because he had lost both legs
in action while fighting in France,
Major Cohen, member from Liver
pooI, delivered an impassioned ad-
dress in which he pleaded for hon
osty on TIE part of the government
Il dealing with disabled officers and
men cf the army and navy.
it was the first debate on the pen
sion question, which promises to be-
come one of the most stirring fea-
lures Of the session. One speaker
charged that preparing disabled men
to meet the realities of life had not
been carried very far, because only
ninety officers and less than 5000
men Of the hundreds and thousands
of wounded had up to this time been
Given technical training. Another
charged that the discharged man who
was physically fit was in much bet
ter situation than the sick, as tuber
cular soldiers were being charged
5J.75 a week for treatment in sani-
toriums, although they had already
paid for this in their national insur-
ance.
These and other charges brought
from Major Cohen the flat statement
that it was not training so much as
work after they were trained that
disabled soldiers desired. In fact, he
was opposed to the whole government
plan of training men in certain CEN
ters, because only a limited number
If trades could be taught and there
was no assurance Of subsequent en-
3lOyment when the government

disabled men should be apprenticed
had mastered trades, would be only
too glad to retain them in their posi-
tions, as they would know just what
they could do, and could gauge their
wages accordingly.
These men would have their pen
siols, which Major Cohen said he
hoped would be enough to enable
them to live comfortably. But every
man wanted something else. Mil
ions of men had been wounded and,
