KEEP UP ROADS.

Every farmer should feel his de-
pendence upon good roads. Whether
or not one lives on a public highway
he should take an interest in the
nearest one to his farm or the road
he must use to market his farm, or
chard and garden products.
There are many times when a days
work can be spared on the road. Aft
er heavy rains the road may need
certain repairs or improvements
when the overseer is not ready to
call out the hands. Why not indi-
vidual farmers donate a days work
on the road at such times?
By Keeping road drag and drag
ging the road along ones land after
heavy rains the road may be greatly
improved. It is an easy matter to
have an agreement so each farmer
will drag the road in front of his
farm This would maintain the road
till the regular hands could be called
out at stated intervals or till the
commissioner could make the neces-
sary repairs.
The time has come when we must
consider. the roads an asset, indis-
pensable to the well-being of the
farmer and his family. This being
true, is it not every mans duty to
do all he can to keep the roads in
good condition? The individual as
we'll as the county is responsible.-

TO INCREASE MILK
SUPPLY IN SOUTH

Plans for insuring plentiful sup
ply of clean, pure milk for the con-
suming centers of the Eastern and
Southern sections of the United
States were formulated at confer
ences of federal, State, and city food
! officials held recently in Philadelphia,
Jacksonville, Fla, and New Orleans,
according to officials of the United
States department of agriculture in
charge of the enforcement of the
federal food and drugs act. The con-
troll of milk under food and health
laws is largely problem for munich
pal food and health officials, as the
bulk of milk consumed in towns and
cities is produced near by.
Milk which is shipped into inter-
state commerce, as is the case in cit
les located near State lines, comes
under the jurisdiction of the federal
food officials in making the control
of the milk supply more effective this
season than ever before. More than
200 cities throughout the United
States have laboratories equipped for
testing and analyzing milk. Dairy
men and milEmen attention to sani-
tation in producing and distributing
milk. Much milk is rendered unfit
for food every season because Of
carelessness in handling or lack Of
knowledge Of correct principles Of
sanitation. =
The dairy division of the bureau
of animal industry, United States de-
partment of agriculture, the State
experiment stations, and many Of the
city food and health officials will fur
nish upon application information
regarding improved methods for
handling milk in a manner that will
insure it reaching the consumer un-
der all ordinary circumstances in the
best possible>sondition.

All officers of the reserve militia and

4. The respective states Of the

WOOD AND McADOO AS
OPPOSING CANDIDATES

Washington, May 19.-Americans
no sooner are through with one presi-
Dental campaign than they begin to
talk of the next, but unquestionably
there has been an extraordinary a
mount of talk about presidential can
didates since the armistice of last
November recenvened partisan poll
tics in the United States.
Judged entirely by the amount of
enthusiasm displayed by the average
man encountered on my recent trav-
els across the country and by talks
with leaders Of both parties in state
and national affairs, it would seem
that the present time-and that, Of
course, has nothing to do with twen-
ty months hence-Major General
Leonard Wood is talked of in more
parts of the country for the Repub-
lican nomination and William Gibbs
McAdoo is mentioned more often for
the Democratic nomination than any
of the others. ...
>. It is apparent that Governor Frank
Lowden, of Illinois, is looked upon
favorably in areas in the central
west, and may for the moment be
considered second in the race for
the Republican nomination, and that
the strength in different sections of
Senator Hiram johnson, Senator Bo-
rahs Senator Harding and Senator
Kenyon is largely local thus far.
In the background are such men as
General Pershing, William Howard
Taft, CharlesE. Hughes and Herbert
Hoover, with their strength some
what in the order named.

UNIVERSAL MILITARY
TRAINING FAVORED

Washington, May 16.-Secretary
Baker is expected soon to make a
public announcement Of a definite
stand in favor Of universal educa-
tional military training with state
ment of his reason. Tt is assumed
here that President Wilson has ac-
cepted his plan. y
The plan understood to be favored
by Secretary Baker contemplates the
use of the military establishment as
medium of training the youth Of
the nation; first along academic and
vocational lines and as an entirely
separate and subordinate feature in
rudimentary military science. The
secretary's suggested program is said
to be based intially on the benefits
which will accrue to the country form
the higher average in intelligence and
the improved standard of physical
we'll being of the young men who
would be taken annually into the
training machine.
The favorable results of the opera
ton of the A. E. F. university system
are believed to have largely brought
Mr.. Baker to his opinion. Not only
have the thousands Of soldiers in
France shown great eagerness to
avail themselves of the opportunity
Of exchanging "guns for books" but
the progress made under the spec
tally selected instructors and with
the carefully designed schedules has
been so rapid as to surprise promi-
nent educators connected with the
work. Moreover, the comparatively
short time given to military routine
has proven ample to keep the indivi-
dual soldiers in trim for field service
should emergency require.
While the secretary's announcement
is expected to be an entire exposition
of his personal views it is assumed
