DRASTIC REGULATIONS
ON PLANK ROAD URGED

realizing that the plank road is
now being subjected to Il heavy traf-
fic strain, and that it must hold out
until the commission plans can
be carried out, thee engineers have
recommended drastic regulations to
govern traffic over this stretch.
In a formal resolution passed by
the highway commission, the speed
of vehicles over the plank road is
limited to 10 miles per hour. A
limit in weight, not to exceed 5000
pounds including the vehicle, has al
so been adopted.
Signs warning traffic of these
regulations will be placed at either
end of the plank road and if ne
cessary officers will be stationed
there to see that the regulations are
obeyed. At present the plank road
is in bad condition and if subjected
to unusually heavy traffic in the
next few months the engineers fear
it may give out all together.

ceived III the valley in recent years

Engineers of the commission are
rushing plans for the building of
Il pavement across the sand hills,

These plans are not yet ready to be

be one Of the most daring and
spectacular ever attempted by any
state. 1t is hoped that bids, for this
work can be called for during the

The sand hills section presents
one of the most difficult road prob

shifting sand dunes making it al
most impossible to build road
through them, and thus far the
plank road has been the only feas
ible means of allowing traffic to

Farm Home Needs
Electric Help Too

RAral homes have suffered some
what IA plans discussed for farm cleo
txticatiOn, in the opinion of the Smith.
scnian Institution OF Washington, d.
C. The greater emphasis has been
placed on applying electric power to
farm operations, according to the be-
hef OF the Institution. The great So
cial issue of q home-like farm homo
has been comparatively neglected.
'On the average farm" says the
Smithsonian Institution. "the use Of
either electric power or OF mechanical
equipment for replacing animal and
human muscular labor in the fields,
around the barns. and on the road
Is growing. The mans effective work
by this multiplication Of muscular eff
fort Is greatly increased, his working
hours lessened and the tediuml of has
l@bOr reduced
Usually with the rural woman it
has not been thus. She still frequently
uses coal oil lamps. By muscles

ated washing machine, turns the

"The house where the wife and
mother are drudges can never be q

The only open question in this
matter are how the rural consumer
can meet the installation costs of the
electric equipment and the operating
costs OF the service; and whether It ID
better to extend high tension lines OF

Master of Grange
Likes Electricity

Permanent good is sure to come Of
the present cooperative inVestiga-
tons of the use of electricity on the
farm, according to L. T. Taber, mas
ter OF the National Grange. Mr..
Taber. in an interview just published,
says:
"A generation ago it would have
been supposed that electrical develop
ment and the use of electrical energy
was of little concern to the farmer;
that those in cities and towns were
more vitality interested in this mighty
and mysterious power than those who
till the soil.
"The last decade has seen a trans.
formation along the lines of the use
of electricity in farm homes and farm
work. The farm electrical plant has
been most valuable. The farmer in
many sections will be vitality con-
cerned in the development of high
tension power lines and proper trans
mission OF electrical current for rural
uses.
at is probable that we are yet in
infancy in the use of electricity This
is obviously true as applied to agricul.
ture. Any organization that directs
its attention toward a better under.
standing of the relation of electricity
to rural life will perform an invalu-
able service"

Cows Cooled by
Breezy Electric Fans

Windy Billy would have right to
express establishment, in lurid cow
punching lingo, if he were to return
from the grave and witness the
changes on the old Texas ranch where
he swung his sixty-foot lariat some
years gone by He would see strange
sights, resulting from this electrical
age that has come since he has gone.
He would see range cows comfortab-
ly sheltered in barns. the windows Of
which are screened, the floors con-
GREETED. the interior lighted by electric
lights. and the air cooled by electric
fans.
Those electric fans, for the luxury
of the cows, would startle him more
than anything else. Hereford cattle
sleep on straw beds with General
Electric ceiling fans revolving above
them all day and all night when the
weather's warm. For this rs on an
electric ranch in the electric age
OF which Windy Billy, the famous
COW puncher, never dreamed.

CALLS IT OBLIGATION
Young Says Electrical Industry
Must Solve Rural Problem as
Matter of Duty.

Farm electrification Is not a bust
ness opening as much as it is a social
obligation, in the opinion of Owen d.
Young, a farm owner and with a
farm boyhood behind him, now chair
man Of the board of directors Of the
General Electric Company. The obli-
CATION, in Mr. Young's opinion, rests
with the electrical industry.
In an interview which Mr.. Young
has just granted to the New York
Times, he says: sit is the electrical
industry's job to make its contribution
to adequacy and economy in farm pro-
ductiOn Otherwise, the electrical in
dustry will be found wanting. And it
must accept problem of this magni-
tude and character as presenting a
duty rather than a new market.
The question Is, how can bust
ness OF this size and Importance be
developed in such way that the cleo
trical industry can sell it's service for
what the purchasers can afford to
pay? Anybody can produce goods at
such price that no one can afford to
buy them. Business demands that
the price shall be within reach OF the
potential customer, and that there
shall be fair return to The producer.
A Job to Be Worked Out
1T is incumbent upon the manufac-
turing branch of the electrical indus
try to meet this problem It must
make and develop the necessary ma
chinery. 1t can be done The manu-
featuring branch supplied the textile
field. 1t provided the machinery for
the mine and the railroad for the
steel mill and the bakery.
"We can make farming attractive,
comfortable and profitable. Electri-
city can tighten farm labors and IN
crease farm profits. 1t will check
the exodus of the better type Of citi-
gems from the farm. 1t will make the
farmhouse the most delightful home
we have in this country"
Mr. Young added that it was hardly
TO be expected that the isolated cleo
trio light and power company, having
no inter-connection OF power lines
with any other utility company, could
go out and serve the farmer at a dis
tinct loss But the opportunity came,
he pointed out. when fifteen or TWEEN
ty such isolated utilities were tied to-
gether into a single system with one
large power plant. and a system of
distribution lines, thereby accom-
plishing economies which each OF the
single isolated plants could not work

In counties that do have a county
agent a List of the banks and the prof.
ects in which each is interested is
sent to him with a request that he get
in touch with the bankers and help
them in regard to the various projects.
The next step by the college is to
write to each banker on the list send
