TRADE FOLLOWS GOOD ROADS

There is a famous old saying t.
The effect that "Trade follows the
flag" Merchants say that if you
establish lines of ships to foreign
lands carrying the flag of a certain
nationality, and run in the interest
of that country, they will develop
commerce with the countries thus
touched.
A similar truth exists in regard
to country life. Trade follows good
roads. If one country center is 10
miles from neighborhood over a
good road, and another is five miles
over poor road, the center with the
improved highway will get the bulk
of that trade. Driving over rough
and jolly roads is an annoyance 70
the temper, it takes time, it does
injury to automobiles and other We
hicles. The advancing town is the
one that is improving the roads that
feed its business.-Ex.

Mr.. Bertrand states the the agri-

JERSEY COWS MAKE SPLENDID
RECORDS.

Two Jersey cows, owned by Louis
Pesson, dairy farmer in Iberia par
ish, have completed yearly official
records which are considered excep-
tionally fine by the dairy specialists
from the Louisiana State University.
who supervise the testing of cows in
the state. One of the cows, Kings
Star Lassie, No. 416346, years old,
produced 10,038 pounds of milk and
477.32 pounds of butterfat, while the
other, Violet's Golden Mabel, No.
414886, years old, produced 1884
pounds Of milk and 472.70 pounds Of
butterfat.
These records demonstrate what
can be done with good types of dairy
cows when they are given the prop
er care and treatment, says the
specialists. 1t is felt that if all dairy
farmers would keep records of the
individual cows in their herds that
the standard of dairy farming would
be greatly raised.
During the month of August there
were 12 cows in the State that pro-
duced 40 pounds or more Of butter
fat according to the records kept
by the dairy extension department.
