Ii. L. Y. TO BE GRAVELED
FROM PIERRE TO HAROLD

The Black and Yellow trail from
the end of the gravel north of the
city to the east county line east of
Harold will be resurfaced and grav-
eled this summer, according to the
terms of an agreement reached be-
tween the Hughes county board Of
commissioners and the state highway
department
The county will resurface the high
way where necessary and the state
will do the graveling and it is the in
tention of the county commissioners
to begin the work of resurfacing the
grade at the earliest possible time.
The county will establish the new
routing and grading of the highway
between Blunt and Harold running
the road northeast over the GettyS-
burg line of the Northwestern rail
way from the foot of the hill west
of Blunt, thence through the town and
northeast to the secion line north of
the present route of the trail. An
overhead crossing will be put in
where the road crosses the Gettys-
burg line thus eliminating two grade
crossings in the town of Blunt.
With this section of the trail gra-
veled there will be almost a complete
read from Pierre east to the state
line with the exception of the strip
from Vayland and Washington and in
Hand county. Other sections now
not graveled have been contracted for
are about to be contracted for.
This information will be good news
to the auto drivers and farmers of the
country who have to use the ungra-
veled road to and from their markets.

THE FARMERS WIFE
Weekly Service Hints Furnished BY
State College Specialists
By Mary Ann Gray

Care Of the refrigerator Hot wea-
ther bring to the housewife the duty
OF caring for her ice chest. For best
results. never store food in the ice
chamber; never slam the door when
you close 1t, as the slamming ~loosens
the lock, the door will not close
tightly and thus the ice melts more
rapidly. Once each week when the
ice supply is low, or exhausted, the
chambers should be cleansed with
warm water and soap suds and the
shelves dried in the sunshine. A
bristle brush with a long wire handle
makes cleaning the drain pipes easy.
Most foods placed in the ice chest
should be in covered containers es-
pecially foods, such rs milk and but
ter, which absorb ,qdors quickly. 1t
Is a mistaken idea that the ice blank
ct c~onserves cool temperature. 1t
does retard ice melting, but the melt
ing itself is what maintaines the cold
temperature Of the refrigator, and
food will not keep so wen where the
ice is covered and the melting retard-
ed. Milk and butter should be kept
in the coolest part of the chest, di-
rectly under the ice compartment on
the lowest shelf.
Keeping Curtains Fresh Bedroom
curtains get soiled easily in summer
from the dust and also from pinning
them back or tying them together to
let the breeze into the room. The
hook and eye method helps curtains
to retain their freshness for a long
period. Place a small dress hook
in the lower corner of each curtain,
with an eye to correspond two-thirds
of the "a from the bottom of each
edge. The hook and eye are small
enough not to be detected. and when
the curtains are hooked up for the
night, they do not wrinkle or look
mussy the mex morning.

/ at1ons. Tie wanted to think over the
situation. Next morning he went out
TO the valley TO see for himself. Mex
leans were hastily erecting adobe
houses upon Ladd's one hundred and

men stalking the valley floor and the
river bed. That was sufficient for
Bedding. He turned back toward

they've got property just because they

This argument was unanswerable,
