Most Important to Keep
Sheep Free From Worms

1t is most important to keep sheep
free from tapeworms. These worms
come from ripe segments dropped by
infested sheep on the pastures so that
old, or permanent pastures soon
become tainted for sheep. Lambs
should, so far as possible, have new,
clean grass to go on each spring and
before turning the ewes and lambs
out to grass the ewes should be treat
ed to free them of worms, especially
stomach worms (strongylus haemon-
chus) When sheep are known to be
infested with tapeworms starve them
for "a hours, then give each sheep one
to two drains of freshly powdered
kamala, washed down with water.
After administering the medicine turn
the sheep into pen on the floor Of
which slaked lime has been spread to
the depth of one inch or more. Keep
the sheep there for "a hours.

ROAD CONSTRUCTION
is GREAT PROBLEM

The growth of 'the good roads
movement In the United States and
Canada since it's organized inception
In 1880, and with the great stimulus
it received in the periods Immediately
following the advent of the automo,
bile and the appearance of the motor
truck, has been so rapid, SO extensive
and so effective that highway con-
struction today constitutes. one of the
greatest, If not the greatest, problem
In American economic life.
There are now 1,702 organized
agencies actively and directly pleading
the cause Of good roads. The agita-
ton, to date, has brought about the
construction of 10000 miles of sur
faced highways-raisi the highway
mileage of the United States to 2,478,-
$50, and that of Canada to 255,00o.
The automobile industry, fourth
largest in the country, with 1888 manu-
featuring plants, capitalized at $1,204,-
37S,642, employing 325,000 workmen,
having an annual output of 2,205. 1877
passenger cars and trucks valued at
$3,594, S14,620, and supplemented as it
is by 1910 firms producing auto parts
valued at $3OO,0OO,00O a year, together
with 1000 firms manufacturing an
nually 100000 tires valued at ST.
O00,0O0,000, Is absolutely dependent
upon highway improvement for its
stability and upon increased road mile
age for greater expansion. In addi-
ton, $4,000 distributors of automobiles
are involved, as well as 1890 dealers
in automobile accessories and $4,000
dealers in tires. So great too, has the
bodybuilding industry become, in con-
sequence Of the demand for improved
roads, that 1900 contracting firms are
now engaged in actual construction
work The roads are now traversed
by 9,211.295 licensed cars and trucks,
of which 100000 IRE used on the
farms.
Prior to 1880, when Amos G. Batch
elder, late chairman of the executive
board of the American Automobile as
ISOLATION at Washington, with Fl. S.
Earle of Detroit and other pioneer adj
vocates, organized the League Of
American Wheelmen, and began a sys-
tematic campaign, good roads enthu-
siast was looked upon with undis-
guised curiosity or amusement as
something of a "nut"-a loquacious,
but no doubt well-meaning person,
who might be seen, but not heard.
Usually he was promptly "sat down
upon" by the lugubrious taxpayer.
Opposition gradually melted away,
however, as the campaign became
more fully organized and extended.
Since 1880 more than $1,000, 100000
has been spent for highway improve
ment in the United States and Canada.
More than S1,300,OO0OOO is now avail
able. and $1,5O0,O0O, 900 additional will
be necessary to carry out projects I'M
der contemplation. And yet, with all
this, only a beginning has been made.
Billions more must be expended be-
fore the country has anything like
highway system adequate to the traffic
needs-C. S. Lee, Director Highways

Dress Turkeys for Market

Farmers near the city markets, and
particularly those in the middle Allan
dress the turkeys and either sell them

Thanksgiving there is held what is

fore this event every turkey grower in
the neighborhood kills and dresses his
turkeys and the following morning

Good Roads Notes


Endurance under extremes of heat
and cold is one of the severe tests
of pavement. In Bismarck, N. Oak,
the maximum temperature recorded Is
ture on record for the city is As de-
grees below zero. Concrete pavement
in Bismarck has stood this test sue
cessfully.
One of the great blessings to rural
communities, made possible by good
roads, is the consolidated school. In
1918 the United States bureau of ed
ucation reported 10000 consolidated
schools in the country. This total
has been considerably increased since
then, as the movement is rapidly gain
ing in popularity.

WAYNE BOYS TO PLEAD
GUILTY TO BURGLARY

William and Jack Wayne, claiming
to be half-brothers, who were arrested
near Billings, and brought back to
Bozeman last week by a Gallatin
county deputy sheriff to answer the
charge of burglary in connection with
the breaking into of a private garage
at West End and stealing therefrom
an automobile battery and some tools
from the Northern Pacific railway
station agent at that place, have sig
nltled their intention of pleading
guilty to the charge and throwing
themselves on the mercy of the court.
Their plea will probably be received
by one of the judges who will sit in
the coming June term of district
court in the absence of Judge Law.
The lads have also confessed to the
m%utilatiOn of auto truck gasoline
tanks and the theft Of a quantity Of
gasoline from the yeards of the Ken
yon-Noble Lumber company in this
city, their connection with this offenso
having been brought about through
the recovery of a sheep-lined over
coat, the property of one of the yard
men, which was stolen from the yard
at the time. The local man also
identified an old tobacco pipe in one
Of the Overcoat pockets as his proper.
". The lads at first asserted that they
had bought the coat from a man in
Vancouver.
Since the arrest Of the lads, the
sheriff's force succeeded in locating
the owner of the Chevrolet coupe,
which they confessed to having stolen
from in front Of a church in Seattle
Wash, while he, the Rev. E. B. Cul-
yer, pastor, was preaching his eve.
