HIGHWAY C0NSTRUC-
TION VERY HEAVY

Although only about half the distance
Of the l2-mile unit of the Mount Hood
Loop Highway extending from the
Middle Valley to the bounds of the Or
cong National Forest, the unit Just
south of Hood River extending up the
Hood river gorge for "a miles, will cost
$40 600 more. The 6.8 miles of new
grade, now under way, will cost an APP
proximate $ll5. 600.
Because of the heavy construction
met with, r. A. Webster, contractor,
with whom is associated J.W. Rumsey,
is now engaged with the most elabor-
ate equipment ever used on a highway
job in Hood River county proper, al
though sections of the Columbia River
Highway required heavier apparatus.
A steamshovel, equipped with 2i-yard
shovel, which handles large boulders
without the necessity Of blasting them,
is operated on a standard guage rail
track. When the work is ended the big
shovel will be three miles from the o.
w. r. & N. line. II is moved from
point to point on a temporary track.
The removal Of rocks and earth for fills
is being FASTENED by utilizing a narrow
gusge rail line with dump cars and
small locomotive. The contractors have
already cut the heaviest Of the new
grade. where it winds around the Hood
river canyon from its intersection with
the Columbia River Highway. A camp
for its crews is located in a grove Of
frs Just south Of the city and two other
camps are located further Up the line,
one near Powerdale and the other near
Whiskey creek.

GOVERNMENT OFFERS
A SAVINGS SYSTEM

Postmaster Reavis continues to i'm
press upon the people of Hood River
the advantages Of treasury savings
certificates and postal savings as an
investment as well as the best method
of encouraging persons of small income
to form the habits of thrift and saving.
'"The post Office under this system. I"
said financial sage who made an in
vestigation Of the new H. S. Govern
ment savings system, will become
and the person of small salary. In
many of the large cities. and in fac
tory towns, and especially in many of
the smaller towns in the rural dis
tricts. it is very ineonvenient for earn
ers of a weekly wage to reach a bank
after receiving their pay, but a post
office is usually available. When the
people fully understand that their post
Offices offer them modern banking
facilities they will avail themselves of
this modern savings system which is
run for their own advantage and at
no cost to them. Postal savings and
treasury savings certificates offer an
unusual opportunity, and the post Office
is ready to render these banking facil-
tiles in an efficient manner
Postmaster Reavis is pleased with
the suggestion of the post Office as the
wage -earners' savings bank, and in
tends to make il that in fact. as long
as people who are its patrons show a
disposition 20 save. He calls especial
attention to the fact that the govern
ment is in this savings movement be-
cause the officials have become con-
vinced that only through the govern
ment can a nationwide campaign FOR
savings be inaugurated and made sue
cessful The government. he said.
affords an opportunity for everybody
to save. ANY person with ten cents
can open a savings account with the
government. With ten cents a postal
savings stamp can be bought ct the
post Office. When ten stamps have
been purchased and affixed 10 a postal
savings card they can be exchanged
for 81 interest bearing postal savings
certificate Postal savings certificates
to the amount Of S2. 500 may be pur-
chased by any one person. Small IN
vestors can also buy treasury savings
stamps at 81 each. They DO not draw
interest. but when 20 stamps have
been acquired they can be exchanged
for q SIS treasury savings certihcate-
These certificates are Issued IN demon
nations Of SIS. 500 and 81 600, and
are sold for so. $50. and 500 Theg
pay a per cent compounded semi
annually '-and are exempt from state
and local taxation except estate and
taxes and from the normal
federal income tax.

BIG YIELoERs SPOTTED
IN CORN VARIETY TEST

In spite of tne ract that the 1O-year
average yield of corn in Kentucky is
only a little moreethan % bushels an
acre, yields of more than 100 bushels
an acre are not impossible, according
to results obtained during the sum-
mer just past by Nealie Tapp. a Hen
derson county farmer living near
Dixie, who co-operated with County
Agent d. w. Martin and the extension
division of the College of Agriculture
at Lexington in running a corn vari-
ETY. test on his farm to find out which
variety was the highest yielding one
for that section of the state.
One strain of Boone county white
corn used in the test maade los bush
els an acre, while another variety.
Pride of Saline, made 1O5 bushels an
acre. A third variety, Island Flint,
made 104.5 bushels an acre, while a
second strain of Boone county white
made 102 bushels an acre. A local
strain of a variety known as the Lit
tie ed Cob made 100 bushels an acre.
A third strain of Boone county
white made 90 bushels an acre, while
Reid's Yellow Dent, another variety
used in the test, made 50 bushels an
acre. Hickory King and Iowa Silver
mine, the other two varieties used in
the test. each averaged SO bushels an
acre.
The yields of the test were accu-
rately determined by measuring off

KENToN FARMER SHOWS HOW
GOOD FEED FOR HENS PAYS


A striking example of how good feed
and the right kind of care helps hens
TO lay more eggs and then keeps
them laying consistently month after
month through the whole year is
found in the records of Harry A. Ken
dig a Kenton county farmer living
near Kenton, who is cooperating with
the extension division of the College
Of Agriculture in handling his flock
of Barred Plymouth Rock hens as a
demonstration to show the value Of
recommended poultry practices. Mr.
Kendig, along with 4S other co-opera-
tors in the state, has just finished
the records which he kept for the
year ending November 1. His flock
was the second highest producing
one out of the AZ being handled as
demonstrations. each of his hens hav-
ing laid an average of 1S6 egs in the
year. This is more than three times
as many eggs as are laid by the aver
age Kentucky hen.
Mr.. Kendig started keeping records
November 1, 1922, with 100 hens and
ppllets in his laying flock That
month he got less than an average Of
one egg from each of his hens. How
ever, good feed and the right kind
of care recommended by the college
poultrymen soon began to have its
effect and in February Mr.. Kendig
got more than II eggs from each
OF the hens in his flock. The follow
ing month this was increased to more
than "a eggs from each hen and
from then until the time his records
for the first year were completed on
November l, each if his hens never
failed to lay less than an average Of
II eggs a month. This consistent
production proved to be one of the
big factors in helping him get an av-
erage of 1856 eggs for for the year
from each of his hens. Mr. Kendig
had culled his flock down to 81 hens
by the time the first year of record
was ended
The dry mash that he fed his hens
was a mixture of bran, middlings,
corn meal and tankage, of which 20
! per cent was tankage, and in addition,
| he fed sour skim milk when he had
it on the farm. The grain mixture
that he used was made of corn and
oats Mr.. Kendig followed the prac-
tice of giving his hens plenty OF grain
in the winter to keep them in good
| flesh. In the summer, the grain feed
was cut down in order to make the
! hens eat more mash so that their egg
production would not drop during the
/ hot months of the year.

WILSON is PERFECT PATIENT

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson was the
guest of women Democrats of Mary
land who gathered to celebrate the
recent Democratic victory. Mrs. Will
son motored to Baltimore from Wash
ington with Mrs. Edna Helm, wife of
Rear Admiral James Meredith Helm,
who acted as Mrs. Wilson's secretary
on her European trip.
Mrs. Wilson said that the former
president, while not so far on the
road to health as recent newspaper
reports have indicated, is much bet
ter than he has been at any time
since his recent illness.
MIR. Wilson," she said, ''is the
most wonderful patient imaginable.

a representative strip in the various
rows and weighing the yield from
that strip. With these yields accu-
rately determined it was possible to
calculate the yield from an acre.
Henderson county has grown more
acres of corn in the last ten years
than any other county in the state,
County Agent Martin says. The fact
that high yields have been shown to
be practical possibility for farmers in
the county indicates that the crop
will continue to be one of the impor
tant ones in that section of the state.
