protection should be made TO keep cars

UNITED STATES GOOD ROADS
Work Is in Progress in Every Section
TO Give Country Superior
Highway System.

The time is rapidly passing when
the bad roads Of America can be point
ed out as a reproach. In every section
OF the country work is in progress to
give the United States a system OF
roads which will compare favorably
with those of other countries. Roads
are being built at 1885 different
points. Fully 10000 miles of road have
been approved by the secretary of ag-
riculture. 1t is estimated that this
construction will cost the country near
ly 40000O,000 At the end of June.
1920, the government reported that p
116 different projects, or total OF
10000 miles of roads, had been COM
pleted.-Boys' Life.

HOW TO BREAK RROODY HENS
Confine Them in Small Coop RAISED
Off Ground, Preferably With a
Slated Bottom.

When hens become broody they
should be broken up as quickly as
possible. The sooner this is done, the
sooner they will resume laying. To
break hen of broodiness, she should
be confined to a small coop raised off
the ground, preferably with slat bot
tom.. Give her plenty of water to
drink she may be fed or not, as de-
sired. Not much difference will be
found in the time required to break
her of broodiness, whether she is fed
or made to fast, say poultry special
lists of the United States Department
of Agriculture.
Usually from three to six days con-
fnement will break her, but some hens
require ten to twelve days. The broody
hen will be recognized by her inclina-
ton to stay on the nest at night, the
ruffiing of her feathers and her picking
at anyone who approaches her, and by
the cluclling noise she makes. The fact
that her broodiness has been broken
up" can be recognized by the disap-
pearance of these symptoms.
