The campaign recently inaugurafed

state for the killing and trapping OF

sible as the result of bill gotten
through the last Legislature by Rep
resentatiye George Z. Colgate of this
city appropriating $4,000 for that pur-
pose for the biennial period begin
ming Jnly !. 1919. and ending July. !,
1921. to meet like approximation
made by the Federal government. Mr..
Colgate's bill was not only enacted
into a law. but the appropriation was
placed in the first class. which as
sures the necessary money to carry
out its provisions. II the appropria-
tion had been placed in the second or
third class IT is possible that there
might be no funds available for the
execution OF this particular law.
After getting the measure through
the house Mr. Colgate took IL to the
Senate with mass of collected data
and secured its adoption there The
bill was signed by Gov Shoup and was
duly enrolled on the statute books of
Colorado TO become effective within
90 days. The last Congress set aside

Foot and Head
Disease of Chickens
Makes Appearance


With the new crop of chickens COM
ing on, reports OF the peculiar foot
and head disease of chickens that has
been so serious on the dry lands IL
Eastern Color ado. are very hume mrs
1t is a disease largely OF little chick
ems which manifests itself by the
formation of blisters between the
toes. around the bill and on the eye
lids. This is later followed by
scabby condition. The eyeids are
glued shut. toes turn up and in many
instances the chickens die. largely
from inability to find food.
The disease appears to be associate
ed in some way with sod. since it has
not yet been found on an irrigated
farm However. II is known to exist
on dry knolls in irrigated districts
Just what this association is between
sod and the disease is still open TO
question
In the older chickens that are fairly
strong. the application of carbolized
vaseline TO the scabby toes and heads
will be found reasonably effective in
softening these parts and in prevent
ing serious distortions. In the younger
chickens there appears to be no treat
ment that is really valuable.I f

BUILDING OF GOOD HIGHWAYS
Federal Aid Road Act Exerts lmpor-
tant Influence on Legislation
In Many States.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Federal-aid road projects unques-
tlonably, are ready for construction in
every state this year. Under the fed
eral-ad road act of 1916 every state
in the Union is now in position to
cooperate with the federal govern
ment in the building of highways.
Results of far-reaching Importance
and of even greater potential value
than the appropriation of federal
funds have already been accomplished
by the federal act. Among the impress
sive results is the establishment out
right of state highway departments in
Delaware, South Carolina, Texas, In
diana and Nevada and the strength
ening of other state highway depart
ments so as to remove all question as
to the 16 states which were not quail
fed to obtain federal cooperation at
the time of the passage of the federal
act.
In the past winter more construc-
tive state highway legislation has been
placed upon statute books than has
ever been enacted in any similar
period since the American republic
was founded. The conditions laid
down by the federal act as necessary
to participate in its benefits operated
powerfully to bring about the estab-
lishment and strengthening of state
highway departments, the placing of
vast amount Of road construction
under skilled supervision, the sys-
tematzing and correlation of road

A useful instrument. especially in

tells the pilot his speed through the
air. It also helps him to know wheth-
err he is rising or descending. For in

speed registered above that will show
that the machine is coming down, and
anything below 1t that the machine

GOOD ROADS IN NEW ZEALAND
Concrete Declared Mo Satisfactory
In Land Of Heavy Rains-Cheaper
in Long Run.

The New Zealand authorities. both
local and national. are carefully study
ing the subject of good roads, realiz-
ing that this is the best way to open
up the hinterland OF the dominion. The
roads of the country, in the main, are
not in very good condition. There are
some good stone roads, about the larg-
er centers, but few of them extend out
more than % or 80 miles. Their up
keep has been found very expensive,
especially in the northern part of the
country, since the rainfall is heavy
and washouts are numerous because
the stone used is soft and grinds up
rapidly, the Scientific American states.
OF late much has been said in re-
gard to the construction Of concrete
highways, and It is thought that this
will be far cheaper in the long run
than the stone roads as they are now
constructed, for the reason that the
upkeep will he so very greatly reduced.
II is estimated that mile of 12foot
concrete road four inches thick could
be built in New Zealand for $1,000
more than mile Of ordinary stone
road on which there would be saving
in upkeep for the first five years of ar
least 81. 200, while at the end of ten
years there would be a saving of ST.
coo or $1,000.
