and then at the end Of the days work
tehulating the result and firing il in
to the superintendent of county road
construction and from there to the
state capitol at Lansing, where they
form part of an invaluable record
kept by the state for the purpose Of
knowing just where, when the chance
is ripe and opportune, concrete roads
will do the most good in serving the
greatest amount Of traffic.
On Monday Mr.. Bunce was sta
toned at crossing near Ionia and
he counted the traffic as follows.
Starting in at o'clock on the morn
ing he counted 101 single horse rigs
65 double teams without loads, II
loaded double teams, 118 automobile
runabouts. 708 touring cars, 68 mo-
tor trucks, running light, II loaded
motor trucks and 2 motor cycles up
to 8 o'clock that evening. From that
time until seven o'clock Tuesday
morning, he counted 18 more single
horse rigs, 8 double rigs without
loads, III loaded teams, % runabouts
168 turing cars, light motor trucks
6 loaded trucks and two motor cycles
total of 1460 rigs of various dis
cription which passed him in the
"a hours which he was stationed
there. Another road which crosses
the one above referred to had to-
tai of 1854 horse and motor propelled
vehicles travelling over it in the
same length of time. making the in
tersection which served the two
routes, serve the purpose of 2614
rigs.
The largest number of vehicles
passing was by far those of the tour
ing car type automobile. From
seven to nine o'clock in the morning
there were 83 touring cars went past
from nine to eleven o'clock, SO were
counted, from eleven a. m. until one
p. m. 118 touring cars whizzed by,
from one to three Mr.. Bunce count
ed 113, from 3 to 80, from five to
seven SO and from seven to nine, SO
more, making total of 708 touring
cars. Touring cars which passed in
the night were, from nine to eleven

o'clock 64, from eleven to one a.. m.
46, from one to three %, from three
to five Ia, and from five to seven 22,
a total for the night hours Of 168 or
grand total of 876 touring cars
for the "a hours. This was for just
one road and the combined traffic
for the two roads was very nearly
twice that number.
The reason for the state highway
placing a man at vari-
GUS places along the highways to OBJ
serve the amount of traffic is for the
purpose of determining just where
concrete roads shall be built when
it is deemed. the proper time to build
them. With gravel roads wearing
out as fast as they are at the present
time and the cost of maintaining
them becoming practically Srohibi-
tive, the men in the state highway
department have come to realize that
concrete is the only solution to the
good roads question and that con-
crete it must be, sooner or later,
1t is for the purpose of knowing
just what road is travelled most and
what route will serve the greatest
number of people that this interest
ing data relative to good roads work
is being gathered and compiled.

HOLLISTER, Calf, January IT,
A membership drive for the California
Cattleme1s' Association was launched
today at a meeting here of San Be-
nito county cattlement.
A plan designated to make meat
prices more uniform throughout the
year. both for the stock raiser and
the consumer, is being put into opera
ton by the cattlemen. Today they
are discussing the problem Of over
supply of cattle in summer and shor-
tage in winter.
The cattlemen have the backing of
the California Association in a plan
to carry and feed their stock into the
winter months and then sell this
stock at auctions conducted by the as
sociation. John Bryan, president of
the association, will be one of the
speakers.

district investigative committee in
session here. Not only to secure a
constant succession of timber crops,
but to increase the yield Of virgin for
eats through scientific management
was recognized as the chief aim of
the practice of forestry in the south
west.
By fortunate combination of rain
fall and seed crop, according to forest
officials. the season of 1919 produced
an extraordinary crop of western yell
low pine seedlings throughout the pine
forests of Arizona and New Mexico.
So enormous is the crop that counts
have been made varying from 10000
to 10000 seedlings per acre; and the
opinion of foresters that if only one
per cent of the crop survives over the
entire area, it will be of incalculable
value to the future prosperity of the
southwest. The Forest Service in
tends to protect this crop from fire
and overgrazing, recognizing that
under average conditions in these
states such seeding crops can be ex-
pected only once every quarter of a
century, and that if its perpetuation
is vitally essential to a continue sup
)ly of lumber for home industries.
G. A. Pearson, chief of the Ft. Val
~ Forest Experiment Station, en-
)hasized the Importance of the time
clement in securing the natural re-
.eneration of forests, and indicated
nat intensive research, extending
yer a period of eleven years. has
lade great progress in solving the
problem of forest regeneration and
cut-over areas. Even without the
occurrence of an unusual Seeding crop
such as that of last year, Mr.. Pear
son concludes that forest reproduction
on all but the most unfavorable sites
will establish itself in about two de-
cades. provided sufficient seed trees
are left, and there is proper grazing
control.
Mr.. Pearson's Investigations indi-
cate that reproduction of yellow pine
can probably best be secured by the
so-called "shelterwood compartment"
method of cutting timber, by which
;.bout one-third of the mature timber
is cut, and the balance left for seed
trees and for shade to the young seed
lings until the small trees are safely
established, when the shelterwood is
removed by Jogging. These conclu-
sions, however, must be supported by
additional studies extending over a
period Of years, i,lasmuch as the fa..
tors influencing tree growth are very
complex.

Divorce court records show that in
