ROAD ="
BUILDING
MOTOR TRUCKS ON HIGHWAYS
Series of Impacts Being Conducted at
Arlington to Determine Impact
on Roads.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
To determine the destructive effect
Of heavily loaded auto trucks on high
ways and streets, and To meet the de-
mand for data on the design Of road
surfaces and foundations To withstand
such heavy traffic, series of expert
mentS is being conducted by the bu-
reau of public roads at the Arlington
experiment farm to determine the inn
pact of auto trucks on roads
The most striking single develop
ment in the highway field in 1913 was
the tremendous increase in motor
truck traffic. Five years ago heavy
motor trucks were few in number and
limited practically entirely to the
paved streets of larger cities. These
vehicles now comprise probably to
5 per cent of the grand total of all
motor vehicles and are to be found
wherever traffic conditions permit
profitable use But very few roads
were designed To carry any large vol
ume of this class of traffic. ConSe-
quently, the cost of adequate main
tenance was increased greatly during
the year. In many places the damage
due to the incessant pounding of these
fast and heavy vehicles was so great
as TO require complete reconstruction.

TURKEYS EAT GRAsSHOPPERs

Turkeys range far afield and prey
upon insect forms that escape hens.
From the time the young are Old
enough to begin fOragng for them
selves, perhaps early in June, until
near frost, turkeys take the bulk Of
their food from field insects, deyouring
millions Of grasshOppers and other in
furious forms in meadow and pasture,
says the United States Department Of
Agriculture.
In regions where wooded areas are
still fairly extensive mast is an i'm
pOrtant item in the diet Of the tur-
key. When the insect stores begin TO
fail, the mast larders are beginning
to be filled. Feeding on acorns, chest
nuts. beechnuts, and the like, turkeys
will go a long way toward fattening
themselves for the Thanksgiving or
Christmas market and will not require
much feeding of corn or other grain
to finish them Generally speaking,
turkeys will require a larger feeding
of grain than chickens to fit them for
market, but, as they utilize forms of
waste that hens and their broods
would not reach, the keeping Of fair
number of turkeys is good economy.

NOT ONLY CHICKENS

The hen, first and last, is the man
of white meat and eggs on a farm, but
she requires the aid OF turkeys, geese,
guineas, ducks just as, on dairy
farm the COW requires the aid of pigs,
sheep and goats The setting of the
standard at 100 hens per farm is safe,
but no such arbitrary standard can be
set for the other kinds of poultry, say
the poultry specialists of the United
States Department OF agriculture,
The small farm, with grain fields of
farms in proximity to the
barn and dooryard, would, perhaps, be
better without turkeys. The farm
through which no streams run and
which has no large pond would per
haps be better without ducks. But the
farm on which turkeys
would be a disadvantage may be well
supplied with streams and ponds 50
that ducks would be unusually profit
able and the farm that has no streams
and ponds may have large range foI
turkeys. Each farm family will have
to determine for itself what poultry
can be profitably kept in addition to
100 hens, bearing in mind always that
an adequate number should be kept
Of all the kinds for which free range
can be found

Much Investigational and Expert
mental Work Done by the De-
partment Of Agriculture.

Much investigational and expert
mental work on road building has
been in progress for number Of
years and road engineers are able as
a result of this work to give valuable
advice as to the most economical
method of building and maintaining
roads for the varying conditions exist
ing in different localities. Much Of
this investigational work has been
done by the highways division of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture and some by the various state
highways commissions. No road build
ing operations ought TO be undertaken
without the aid and expert advice
which these agencies are willing and
able to give. Taxpayers should insist
upon this.

SUMMARY OF Y. w. C. A. WORK

The Brookinge County Y w. G A
is approaching the end of its second
year of organization and the time for
the annual meeting and yearly finance
campaign is near. The work which
has been most emphasized during the
year is the Girl Reserve Movement
which is the national Y. w. C. A. pro.
gram for girls between the ages Of
u and IS years. There are now six
of these organizations. three in Brook
ings. two in Bruce and one in VOlga
with a total membership Of 131. The
II. S. club in BroOkings has been under
the leadership of Miss Keith and Mrs
Porter who has been conducting the
bi-weekly Bible class. The corps at
VOlga is made up Of II. S. girls with
Miss Esther Blum as adviser. At
Bruce the H. s. corps is under the
leadership of the high school princi-
pal. Miss Elizabeth West. and the
Grade School corps is led by Miss
Hortense Shaffer The purposes Of
the H. S. corps are written by the
girls themselves and the purpose Of
the Grade School corps is "tO face life
squarely and to find and give the
best" The club activities are in keep
ing with the code and the honor sys-
tenn in which the girls work for hOnors
in health, service, knowledge and
spirit.
In order that the advisers might
have the best training possible Mrs.
Grace Bailey attended the Girls Work
conference held at Minneapolis last
fall and since then a series OF training
forums has been started. One of the
most successful events in connection
with the club work was the camp held
at Lake Campbell last summer. Thirty
one girls attended during the two
weeks. This year the committee is
planning to accommodate from 60 to
IS girls at a time. The camp is 70
begin June "a and continue for two
weeks. the first week being for high
school girls and the second for grade
school girls. This camp Is to be open
to any girls in the county of these
ages whether they have had the op-
pOrtunity of belonging TO club or not
Besides the Girl Reserves there are
three clubs of older girls, the Brook
ings Business Girls club, the White
club. and the Volga club. Last August
Volga put on a successful community
entertainment in the park in the form
of a carnival and incidently raised
their part of the county budget. The
White club Is planning a similar en-
tertainment for this week.
Last summer eight Brookings rep
resentatives attended Y. w. c. A. con-
ferences, four attending the Town and
Country conference at Lake Geneva

TIFFANY TO
LEAVE PROJECT
Reclamation Manager Goes With
Spokane Company-StiIl
Interested in Project

r. X. Tiffany, whose resignation as
manager of the Yakima Reclamation
project was announced Monday, is in
the city today for the purpose of con-
ferring with the board of directors
of the Kennewick Irrigation district.
Mr.. Tiffany who has been project
manager for five years will give up
his position May to accept three
year contract as manager of the Spo-
kane Valley Land & Water company,
which owns the Corbin ditch in Spo-
kane valley. The irrigation ditch is
carrying water for $4,000 acres, the
main canal being "a miles long and
the laterals 81 miles.
Mr.. Tiffany has always taken a
very keen interest in the. proposed
Kennewick project which is part of
the Yakima project, and his leaving
the reclamation service has aroused
general regret among those who are
interested in the local project. Mr..
Tiffany says, however, that he is not
severing his connection with the
service entirely but that at the re-
quest of E. Weymouth, of the Denver
Office he will continue to serve as con-
sulting engineer for the Reclamation
service. He assures his Kennewick
friends that his leaving Yakima does
not mean that he is going to lose in
terest in the Kennewick project and
that he hopes to continue to work for
its early construction.
In speaking of the possibilities of
water shortage in the Yakima Valley
this year, Mr.. Tiffany said the danger
is not acute. Careful and economical
handling of irrigation water will in
sure sufficient moisture for this years
requirements. He says the supply for
government canals is somewhat larger
than in 1915, the dryest of recent
years.
There is no doubt but that there
will be an abundant water supply for
the Kennewick and Richland canals
as the supply in the lower Yakima is
greatly augmented by the return
flow from irrigated lands farther up
the valley. Even in 1915 there was
no shortage here.
