ROAD BUILDERS STUDY SOILS
Highway Engineers Expected to OBJ
tain Important information by
investigation.

An investigation which promises to
place at the disposal Of highway en-
gineers important information regard
ing the relation of soils to highway
durability has been undertaken by the
bureau of public roads, United States
department of agriculture. This work
includes taking samples Of soil at
spots in the subgrade of highway
where the road has begun to fail,
studying surrounding geological con-
ditions to determine how moisture ar
rived in the subgrade, thus destroy
Ing its value; making laboratory
tests to determine the physical char
acteristics of soils, and obtaining a
scientific measure of the bearing value
of soils. In this investigation it is pro
posed to obtain as much cooperation
as possible from the various state
highway departments. The burea1e2f
soils is cooperating with the bula
of public roads in this work. M
Preliminary investigation has been
started in Maryland on the Washing
ton-Baltimore road, and will be ex-
tended beyond Baltimore and on other
roads in Maryland. Progress has been
made in the matter of laboratory tests,
a number Of samples Of subgrade
material and other samples already
having been examined. E
The federal highway engineers point
out that soils differ widely in their
ability to support loads, particularly
when they are wet. Just why this is
true and just what are the character
istics which make them different;Ils
little understood at present. It is in

Is A Cotton Grader
Worth While?

Clemson College, Aug. 81 Seven
official graders worked at central
cotton markets in South Carolina in
1919-20. The number will doubtless
be largely increased for the coming
cotton season under the cooperated
agreement with the South Carolina
Cotton Association and other agen-
cies. Below are extracts from some
of the many letters received by the
Extension Service of Clemson Col
lege showing how those who have
had the benefit of an official cotton
grader feel about it.

POOR ROADS ARE HINDRANCE
Farmer Made Unable to Take Ad-
vantage Of High Prlces-Cost
of Market News Wasted.

Today the farmer has wire commune
cation facilities unsurpassed in the
history of the United States. He
knows, day by day, the fluctuating
prices which prevail for his produce
at the marketing points and knowing
these things he can arrange to get his
goods to market on the day when the
price Is the highest If the road is good.
If the road is bad or impossible then
much of the effort which has been ex-
pended in getting the news of market
conditions to him is lost.

RoUGHAGE AIDS FAMOUS cow
Helen Uiikje Calamity Gained in Milk
Production When Switched From
Grain Ration.

When Helen Ulkje Calamity 1857
was switched from grain to purely
roughage ration, it was thought that
she might object to this change OF
diet and drop off in milk production,
but she didn't. In fact, this COW actu-
ally increased her flow of milk and
surpassed any of her previous years
production records by more than 2,4OO
pounds Of milk.
Helen, whs comes of good old fam
lily, and is a granddaughter of Home
stead Girl De Kol-Sarcastic Lad, was
sent by the dairy division of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture
from Beltsville, Nd, to Huntley, Mont,
in May, 1918. When she freshened on
June 21 1t was decided to run her on
semiofficial yearly test without any
grain in her ration.
Her ration consisted entirely of al
falfa hay, silage, and pasture, and she
was MIXED three times day. The al
falfa hay was fine quality, and most
of the silage was corn silage, although
she received little sunfower silage
in December, January and February.
The pasture was an irrigated tame
grass mixture and was of good quail
ity.
At four years of age Helen had pro-
duced at Beltsville 11,476.6 pounds of
milk, 3S2.05 pounds of butterfat, on
two daily milkings, and grain, hay
and silage ration. Again, at six years
of age she produced I1,77S.2 pounds
of milk, $500 pounds of fat, on two
milkings and a grain, hay and silage
ration. She was eight years and three
months old when the test on roughage
alone began, and her production for
year on that feed was 14,210.1 pounds
of milk and 470.24 pounds of fat.
Helen is now being run on a Sec
ond test, three milkings day, with
the same roughage but with grain
mixture in addition. She has milked
as high as 81 pounds day, and prom
ises to increase considerably her rec
ord made on roughage alone. The
dairy division, in cooperation with the
Montana experiment station, will run
other COWS on roughage alone. and

RIGHT CARE OF cows TEATs
One of Most Delicate and Troublesome
Parts of Animals Anatomy
Influences Milk Flow.

One of the most delicate and trou-
blesome parts of cows anatomy is
the teat, and the keeping of this right
has lot to do with the milk-yielding
part Of the cow. The COW is kept to
produce milk, and the teat is, as it
were, the. meek" through which it
must pass, and the condition Of the
teat must very much influence both
the quantity and the quality of the
yield.

SUMMER ATTENTION TO COWS
Fly Agsravation Can Be Reduced by
Keeping Animals in Stable During
Heat Of Day.

Keeping cows in 6 cool darkened
stable during the heat OF the dag and
turning them out to pasture at nights
will tend to reduce the fly aggrava-
tion. All Stable doors and windows
should be screened, and manure,
which is the breeding place Of flies,
should be kept cleaned away and
either scattered over the fields or kept
in place where it can be screened.

WEEDS ARE VExING PROBLEM
One Of Principal Reasons Is That
Farmers Have Permitted Plants
to Spread Over Land.

One of the principal reasons Why
weeds are such a serious problem on
many farms these days is that farmers
and land owners failed to keep close
watch Of fields for new weeds and to
have them identified before they had
spread over such large areas as to
make their eradication costly.
