MIXING CONCRETE FOR SET
TING STEEL FENCE POSTS.

National Crop Improvement servicel
Mixing can best be done on a fiat
platform made as nearly water-tight
as possible by placing the boards close
together. BE sure that you have sharp
sand because sand mixed with vege-
table matter win not make good con-
crete. Measure the sand and spread
1t in a layer Of equal depth. Place
the cement on top of the sand and
thoroughly mix sand and cement by
turning over with a shovel or mixing
hoe, mixing until the. color is uniform.
Spread this mixture on the board, then
spread the gravel on the top and CON
tinue mixing. When you have uni
form mixture, add water and continue
that until the desired consistency is
secured. Add the water slowly while
cutting it over, as this win save losing
cement DO not slight the mixing, as
or the mixing largely depends the per
manent results.
IF The concrete shows strcalSy or dry
spots, il is not sufficiently well mixed,
and must be turned again. After the
final turning, round Up the pile and
it IL ready for placing. If you use
sand and gravel mixed ii should be
spread on miSing board and thor
oughly wet and then spread the ce-
ment on top and mix, adding such wa
ter as is necessary.
The concrete mixture should contain
enough water so that it win handle
nicely on a shovel without running off
much. Slight tamping to remove bub-
bles, to fill the holes and give a per-
feet fit is all that is necessary. A wet
mixture is preferable for post setting.
Concrete should not be exposed to
the direct rays of the sun until it has
had time to get hard. AS soon as the
concrete at the top of the post hole is
firm, it is good plan to cover with
earth, green grass or something that
will in a measure retain the moisture.
If the concrete can be wet every day
for a week. it will be better for it.
Do not let the concrete freeze If the
weather is frosty, the earth taken
from the hole should be shoyeled back
on top Of the concrete and left there
until the concrete has set and all dam
ger from freezing is past.
The best mixture is one part cement,
three parts sand and three parts grav-
ell. AS cement comes In bags of 100
pounds, for every bag of cement you
should have three bags of sand and
three bags Of gravel.
Use concrete as soon as possible af-
ter it is made. If brick bats or stones
are used instead of gravel. they should
be broken up into small pieces.
Be sure your posts are thoroughly
set before stretching your fence.

CHRISTMAS SEAL FUNDS

Surgeon General Rupert Blue has
mas Seal Day in the schools and in
all places of worship in the United
States, December 5, 6 and z. The ap-
peal follows:
over one hundred and fifty thou
isand Americans die annually from
tuberculosis. This is an appalling
waste of life when we consider that
tuberculosis is classed as a prevent
able disease. Moreover, because this
loss of life occurs almost entirely In
the ranks OF the young adult popula-
ton, health authorities the world
over have come to consider the con-
troll Of tuberculosis as still the most
pressing health problem confronting
them. Every year the National Tu-
iberculosis Association, by selling Red
Cross Christmas seals, raises a consid-
cradle sum OF money to be used in a
nation wide campaign to combat tu-
berculosis This year special eff
fort is being made to interest school
children in this work and December
fifth, sixth and seventh have been
designated as days on which the
seals are to be sold in the public
schools, synagogues and churches.

situation, trust that the campaign

Another reason for the timeliness
of the agitation for the erection OF
mile-boards as re-started by the re-
cent grand jury,is that VIC havea new
board coming in and whatever may
be said or thought about the policy
or failure of the outgoing board, we
have new hope from the new board
that they will meet the progressive
need of the hour in this respect and
provide the sign-boards in those
beats over which they have direct
control and exert influence to see
that It's done in the two seperate
road districts by their road commits
sioners in order that it may be a
unanimously concerted movement to
mark off the miles and direct I'll e
routes of travel over our good coun-
ty to all Corners and goers and our
own good people as well. We have
written back in time before and
reproduced articles on it from other
papers, but feel tLat its quite peril
nent now to add our endorsement to
the movement and yet do 1t not in
a spirit of gouge but OF inspiration
for better things for US all. We
have ridden over so MANY roads ia
other places where their miles were
marked off and cross roads destina-
lions described, and had our hearts
to ache to see that day dawn In Old
Greene when such would mark her
highways that we cant keep silent

of the hour is heard. If the new

several minds an intention TO dc
