MUCH CRUSHED ROCK NEEDED
Program for Road Building in Mime
sofa Calls for CO., 900 Tons
Sf Material.

The proposed road-building program
In Minnesota this year will require
about 667, 600 tons of crushed rock or
gravel, or nearly 10000 carloads Of az
gregate, according to information Sc
cured by the bureau Of public roads,
United States department Of agricul-
ture. The figures give some idea Of
the magnitude Of the bodybuilding
program now being carried on in many
states. Largely on account Of a short
age Of crushed stone or gravel 50
miles Of road which were to have been
built In 1919 were not completed.
These roads are to be completed this
year, while about 80 miles of new
construction requiring crushed rock or
gravel have been authorized. This
makes a mileage Of 250 scheduled for
1920.

that our highways are inadequate as
now constructed, said Mr.. Brush.
Even our most substantial roads
traffic and the more cheaply built
thorOughfares began to deteriorate
rapidly, In fact so fast that 1t was
necessary for highway officials to ex-
ercise their rights under the state
laws and limit the weight OF loads.
The highways we have been build
ing In recent years, even the perma-
nent types, are not heavy enough to
carry the ever increasing commercial
traffic. Engineers realize now that
the roads must be considerably thick
er than at present and that they must
be wider TO give room for the addi-
tional vehicles being placed in service.
Another phase Of the commercial
traffic problem is that of tire equip
ment. 1t is going TO be necessary TO
equip all trucks with pneumatics
eventually in order that the highways
may be protected as much as possible.
The pneumatic tire gets away from
the constant pounding that is evident
with solid tires They absorb the
shock, no matter how minute, and
thereby save the pavement from the
pounding Of the heavy load and give
longer life TO the mechanism Of the
vehicle.
Experience is the only teacher and
experience has shown to all the big
road engineers Of the country the fol

ELIMINATE ALL POOR LAMBS
carcasses Of improperly Finished An
finals % Not Find Ready
Sale on Market
Just why the latter part of Angus

Just why the latter part Of August
and early part Of September inYari-
ably demoraIizes the lamb market has
puzzled market students for many
years. A large percentage of lambs
coming out Of Illinois. Wisconsin,
Michigan, Ohio. Indiana. and Iowa are
small native animals that have to be
sold for what they will realize. These
lambs coming on a usually congested
market sell for a marked reduction
and since the consumption OF lamb
is limited in certain sections OF the
country. carcasses from these improp-
erly finished lambs do not find ready
sale. This annual occurrence in this
section not only penalties the growers
Of good lambs but means loss to the
producers of the inferior kinds. Since
the product is inferior it has a tend
ency to prejudice consumers against
lamb.
Farmers in the corn belt states sur
rounding the Chicago market are ad--
vised by United States department of
agriculture specialists to make a con-
certed effort to put their lambs in bet
ter market condition. 1t is thought
certain that most of those who were
responsible for this years native
lambs could have put them in much
better market condition, with good
profit to themselves. 1t is Eegrettable
that so large a number of unlocked
and unrestricted, poorly finished, scrub
bred lambs fill the markets from these
sections.
The man who keeps a small flock on
the farm is advised to remember the
Importance Of handling sheep wisely.
The ewes should be bred early enough
in the fall so that they will produce
their lambs in March and April The
lambs should be locked and caStrated
when they are ten days old They
should receive sufficient feed to keep
them growing in order that when they
are ready for the market in about
four months they should weigh from

PROFITS IN POULTRY FLOCK
Farmer Should Be Careful to Gather
Eggs Regularly and Market
Them Promptly.

The marketing OF the product, par
dcularIy eggs, has an important bear
ing on the profits OF the flock. Under
most conditions IT is impossible for
the farmer to seek a special market
for his eggs. but he should be very
careful to see that the eggs are gath
cred regularly and frequently and
promptly taken 10 market. Failure 10
DO this is responsible for the spelling
OF a great many eggs.
When the methods of buying are
such that payment is made for good
eggs only, a plan which is becoming
more widespread and bids fair TO be
compulsory in most states. the farmer
will suffer a decided money loss if he

In some OF the states where high

much work has been done on high
ways which would naturally become
a part of the national system. It is
proposed that In these cases states or
counties should be allowed compen-
sation which will give other highway
mileage equal in value to that con-
structed- Such highways would not
be maintained by the government. but
would be turned over to the state

The amount Of concentrates fed can
be greatly reduced If the sOws have
access to good pasture such as blue
grass, clover, alfalfa or rape.
Good pasture and considerable range
for exercise not only lowers the cost
of maintenance, but also serves to
keep sows in healthy condition.
