L. S. Marines Have Entry in Pixies
Peak Races.

The U. S. Marines known the world
over for their gameness in sports, as
well as in battle, will have an entry
in the great Pixies Peak races, and
from all accounts will make show
ing to be proud of.
Parker b. Abbott, who has been
chief mechanic, and in charge of the
Marine motor transportation for the
Marine Corps in this district for the
last three years, better known 20 the
racing fans as "Daredevil' Abott. will
pilot the Marine entry which is twin
six Packard. Abbott piloted the same
entry last year and took fourth place.
He has remodeled his boat" cutting
alone, and with three weeks souping
he feels that he will make showing
worth while.
Abbott, during the war was with the
the aviators alphabet from A to T. He
has been a mechanic all his life, and
has carried off honors while participant
ing with the best riders in the motor
cycle field. He feels that he is lucky
in obtaining the services Of such me-
chanics as Tom Davis and Bullick to
assist him in the present races. Bull
lex is from Nebraska and is head OF
the Bullick School Of Aviation in that
state. Davis is an AL mechanic and
well known in this district.

Road Construction Important Problem

Road Construction Important Problem
The road-building question is tax
payers question today more than ever
before.
Not only must roads be built but
they must be built to last at the most
reasonable cost.
S6OO,OO0,O00 was spent in street and
road building in 1921. This money
came principally from city, county
and state taxpayers and from auto
mobile owners.
Many types of pavement are being
laid but experience is proving that
regardless of personal opinions one
fact stands out clearly-any type of
hard-surface construction that lacks
resiliency or shock absorbing qualities
will not long withstand the impact of
modern traffic.
A $4,000 mile concrete pavement
should not be permitted to go to
pieces for lack of a top dressing of
asphaltic character to cushion the sur
face and absorb the road shock which
otherwise will soon shatter any rigid
or ungiving character of construction.
The durability of asphaltic concrete
is demonstrated by the successful SER
vice of the older pavements of this
type on the Pacific Coast. A recent
survey disclosed that of the asphaltic
concrete pavements more than ten
years old, over so per cent were still
in good condition and Is per cent in
fair condition.
The oldest asphaltic concrete pave
ment, laid in Visalia, California, IS
years ago is still in excellent condit-
ion, and has required no attention
during that long period of time.

Average cost Of feed per 100 pounds

Profit over feed cost per 100 pounds

Number of quality cows, 81.
There is a decrease of 80 pounds of
milk and 2.3 pounds of butterfat be-
low last months averages. There
were only six cows that frcshened dur
ing the month. There are quite
large number of cows due to frcshen
next month. The average cost of feed
is 15c lower and the profit over feed
4c higher per 100 pounds of milk than
last month. The price of milk remains
steady at S1.65 per hundred.
The dairy interests of the valley
were well represented at the annual
meeting of the Colorado Holstein
Friesian association held at Colorado
Springs this month. One of the main
topics discussed was tuberculin test
ing. DIR. Lauderback of the Woodman
sanitarium stated that one person dies
every three minutes from tuberculosis
in the United States and that over so
per cent of human tuberculosis has
been proven to be of bovine origin
These facts along with others present
ed at the meeting set the dairymen of
the valley to thinking seriously on the
subject.
Seven herds in the valley were test
ed for tuberculosis by DIR. Stout, the
government accredited herd man, this
month. Nineteen cows reacted and
were shipped to Denver for slaughter.
Coy Barnard, local dairyman, accom-
panied the animals and was present
when they were killed. Upon his re-
turn he made a complete report Of the
findings to the dairymen who shipped
the animals. Nine of theme were SO
badly infected that they were con-
demned for food. These animals were
undoubtedly spreaders Of the disease
and actively dangerous not only to
other animals but to humans as well.
The findings have thoroughly aroused
the dairymen OF the valley toward the
eradication OF tubercular animals from
their herds. A large number of ap-
plications for government tuberculin
testing have been asked for and all
Of the dairymen Of the community are
working for larger appropriation
from the state for the carrying or OF
this work.

.CENTERVILLE CARRIES
1918 VICTORY HOME

Centerville high school basket-men
took the long end of a 16 to Is score
from the Richmond high school sec
ond team Wednesday at the Coliseum.
The game was started by Richmond
underclassmen whom the local coach
es wished to break in for the coming
seasons. The score stood 8 to at
half time.
The lead see-sawed back and forth
between the two teams and in the last
half, Centerville drew away from the
fresh second team men and gained a
two-point lead which was bolstered
with a foul goal just before the end
of the game.
The locals cut in third string men
during the first half to get the exper-
fence on the Coliseum floor.
CentervilIe played a steady game
with Terry and Harris putting up
fighting games throughout the entire
contest.
For the second Richmond crew,
Amick was the only man to score in
the last half. He followed in his
shots at every chance and while he
was in during the last half, he rung
up three field goals. His work was
all that kept the seconds in the run
ming.

LOCAL USERS OF GAS j
INTERESTED IN HEARING

Every Richmond gas consumer may
well be interested in the hearing be-
fore the United States supreme court
on Feb. 81, of the cases involving the
validity of the West Virginia law re-
lating to the expectation of natural
gas from that state, according to
w. w. Freeman, president of the I'm
ion Gas and Electric company of Gin
cinnati.
Upon the decision that will follow
this hearing will depend to a great
extent the future of Richmond's gas
supply. At the present time, the city
of Richmond is getting its entire gas
supply from West Virginia. If the
validity of the law is established by
the court, it may not cut off the entire
supply from the West Virginia fields.
but it will curtail it, Mr. Freeman be-
lieves.
The cases before the supreme court
were instituted by Ohio and Pennsyl-
vania The enforcement of the law
was enjoined pending the attack upon
its constitutionality.
