MINNESOTA HAS 1893 MILES
OF CONCRETE PAVEMENT

Minnesota this year will have more
than one thousand miles of concrete
rural highways. Today, Minnesota is
in fifteenth position among the states
in mileage of concrete rural high
ways, according to statistics compiled
by the Portland Cement association.
The mileage in Minnesota and the
states with more pavement follows:
Illinois, 5,463; New York, 1868;
Pennsylvania, 1902; California, 3,841;
Michigan, 1850; Wisconsin, 2,2S2; In.
diana, 2,204; Ohio, 2,153; North Caro-
lima, 1889; Missouri, 1889; Maryland,
LIST; Washington, LIB; New Jersey,
$50: Virginia, 1898; MINNESOTA, 1893.
West Virginia is sixteenth with 734
and Iowa seventeenth with 500. The
total new concrete rural highway built
in all states In 1925 was 1914 miles,
and the total at the end of the year
was 43,333 miles.
The figures include both trunk and
secondary roads, but no city streets.
The Minnesota Highway department
recently announced that there were
833 miles of pavement in the trunk
highway system, of which 735 miles
is concrete and SO miles of other types.
Subtracting the trunk highway con-
crete from the total concrete in the
state, would leave So miles of concrete
on the secondary roads.
The other states enumerated above
an have more or less pavement other
than concrete, but If this were added,
it would not probably change the rank
of the states.

Ventilators Should Be
Regulated in Incubator

In Matching eggs in incubators 1t Is
frequently difficult to provide enough
fresh air or give proper ventilation to
the incubator and at the same time
to keep the eggs from losing too much
moisture.
The poultry department at the New
York State College of Agriculture at
Ithaca, N. Y, says the ventilators
should be kept closed during the first
ten days of incubation, because the
chick inside the egg requires very
little oxygen. After the tenth day
the chick needs more oxygen and the
amount increases gradually until the
need Is largest during the last three
days.
After the tenth day of incubation
the ventilators may be opened more
and more until they are wide open at
the eighteenth day. The moisture
pans should not be allowed to get dry
at any time.
Eggs should lose about 10 per cent
Of their original weight, and not more,
during the three weeks Of incubation.
If they lose more moisture than this
1t is impossible to replace 1t. Sprin-
king the eggs with warm water sew
eral times daily during the last three
days is often recommended, but while
this can do no harm, 1t can do little
good.

HIGH MORTALITY
LOWERS PROFITS

High mortality and low egg produc-
ton 60 hand in hand in the farm poul-
try flock and II the death rate Of hens
Is high the results from the flock will
be only mediocre, regardless of how
well the hens are bred and fed, says
81. n. Alp, poultry extension specialist
Of the college Of agriculture, Univer-
sity Of Illinois.
Records which pa farm flock
owners kept In cooperation with the
college show a mortality rate Of II
per cent annually. II this rate Is fg-
ured for the entire state there would
be an approximate loss Of 100000
birds annually.
"A IL per cent mortality on first
thought may not seem very high, but
1t must be remembered that along
with mortality as high as this there
goes q general low production through
out the flock. 1t Is not so much the
loss Of a bird dying that counts az
the loss caused By low production
through sickness.
while the causes for mortality may
vary to q certain extent, the chief and
main causes will be the lack Of sant-
tation and personal attention. Very
little credit for the mortality being no
higher than IL per cent can be given
to improved conditions In and around
poultry houses. Conditions probably
have not improved great deal with
regard to sanitation. Diseases have
increased and have given more trou-
BILE every year. The chief factor In
protecting the flock IL one Of proven
tive measures.
"Hen mortality Is spread fairly well
over the whole year. The spring
months quite often show an increased
death rate due to increased produc-
ton, especially so where the birds are
forced for production. There Is GER
tain mortality that might be termed
normal mortality. This Is where death
results from causes beyond the con-
troll of the operator and Is not due to
q disease and should cause no worry.
The bulk of the mortality, though,

ity of the operator. The determining
factor with mortality Is health and
vigor and health and vigor come only
from good stock, sanitation and feed
Ing.
"All that Is necessary to say as
warning to poultrymen in regard to
hen mortality Is to remember that
vigor can be defined as hens ability
to live and thrive under ordinary con-
ditions and 1t is essential to have this
factor exhibited In selecting layers
and breeders.
Poultry drugs and medicines
should not be trusted to keep the
flock free from mortality. Prevention
and sanitation should be practiced in
stead and an abundance Of common
sense used In handling the flock"

1t is well for all citizens of our beloved State to
make especial occasion for celebrating the fact
that they have the happy fortune to be residents of
Minnesota. For Minnesotans are fortunate.
Day after day and week after week. men and wo-
men back to Minnesota from tours and sojourns
covering the East, the West and the South of
great country, and various European countries.
And when these people come back, they come with
greater pride in Minnesota greater confidence in the
solid background of her life and with expressions of
thankfuness that the ways of their lives have fallen
in our pleasant land of sky blue water.
The capable pens of Minnesota editors and Mime
sofa writer's this week will be turned to gorcation
of the many, many things in which Minnesotans justly
take pride. And this is well.
In picture poem and story Minnesota will be laid
before all in such wise that he who runs may read.
But great as is Mnnesotas record of the last half
Century, it will be exceeded many fold by the history
of the next fifty years.
Situated at the head of the Mississippi River and of
the Great Lakes, Minnesota occupies strategic stu-
alton of vast import in American affairs. In the years
to come, the Importance of this situation will become
clearer to vision and to that of our children.
With the coming of the ST. Lawrence Canal, and the
renewal of river navigation, Minnesota is due to
ceive of trade and profitable enterprise that
will be of benefit to every resident of this state.
Meanwhile we in Minnesota have at our very door
yards region which residents of dozens of other
states travel hundreds of miles each year to visit
Are alert to the advantages of our situation?
Do get from Minnesota what Minnesota has to
offer?
There is in Minnesota particular tang of vibrant
outdoor life in ideal setting, which of itself brings
to mankind and to womankind new vigor, courage
and peace-the peace of Minnesotas hills and Valleys
rivers and lakes fields and forests
Minnesota people need to know more about Min
nesota. Residents of southern Minnesota should visit
and become acquainted with northern Minnesota.
Residents of the North should travel the regions
the Iowa boundary The people the borders of the
Dakotas should become familiar with the Minnesota
that lies along Lake Superior and the Mississippi Resi-
dents of the Twin Cities should take season in which
to discover Minnesota, outside of Hennepin and RAM
sey Counties. When they do they will open to them
selves the gates of land of happiness That land
awaits them.

CHEESE OUTPUT IMPORTANT
FACTOR IN STATE INDUSTRY

Approximately two million dollars
worth of American and Brick Cheese
are manufactured in Minnesota annu-
ally. OF this large sum, $1,SO0,OOO is
paid directly to farmers for the milk
from which the cheese is made.
Minnesota American cheese is as
fine as can be purchased anywhere in
the nation. The splendid "O1d New
York" American cheese produced at
Pine Island and some other points in
the state is the equal of the best "Old
New York" to be found in the Empire
State. Modern methods of storing and
ageing cheese under thoroughly sani-
tary conditions are in use at all of
the Minnesota cheese plants, which
are models of cleanliness.
Splendid American cheese, six
months old, one year old, year and
a half or two years old-all aged I'M
der proper conditions Of even temper
ature-can be secured at first hand at
practically all of the Minnesota cheese
factories. To the connoisseur, visit
to the storage rooms of one of these
fine plants, with the opportunity to
select two, three or five pounds OF a
choice year-old cheese, after looking
over a big stock, is a real event.
Dodge, Goodhue and Olmstead coun-
ties are the star cheese producing
counties of the state. OF the eighty.
seven cheese factories in the state,
as shown by the last report of the
State Dairy and Food Department,
twenty-six were located in Dodge coun-
ty, nineteen in Goodhue county and
twelve in O1mstead county. Kanebec
county has five plants, Wadena coun-
ty four, Red Lake county four, Anoka
county three, Mower and Mile Laos
counties have two each, while Benton,
Hennepin, Marshall, Pine, Polk, Rice,
Ramsey, Sherburne and Wright coun-
ties each boast one modern cheese
factory.
OF the eighty-seven factories, eighty
are engaged mainly in the production
of American cheese.
Minnesota cheese is as fine as can
be made, anywhere, and is being man.
ufactured under the direction Of ex-
perts, with wide experience both in
this country and in Europe.

CANNERIES ARE
GOOD PRODUCERS
Canning Factories In Minnesota
Do Immense Annual
Business.

More than fifty million cans of Min
nesota corn, peas, beans, tomatoes,
blueberries, sauer kraut and pickles
are packed and sold each year.
The demand for Minnesota canned
goods is increasing, largely, as a re-
suit of the exceptional flavor and gen.
eral high quality of the Minnesota
product, grown under most favorable
conditions.
The commercial canning industry in
Minnesota has enjoyed steady and
prosperous growth for the past ten
years, not only in quantity of output
but also in quality Of product, and all
indications point to continuance OF
this growth. Starting with an output
of approximately 100000 cans in
1915 the industry has gradually ex-
banded until the output for 1925
reached almost 100000 cans, prac-
tically ten-fold increase over pc
riod of ten years. The value of the
output for the season of 1926 may be
conservatively estimated at $1,000
100000
Minnesota Crosby corn has come
to be looked upon as a standard
whereby Crosby corn is judged. Min.
nesota is especially fortunate in hav-
ing ideal soil conditions and the most
favorable climatic conditions for the
raising of sweet corn, hot days and
cool nights tending to give the corn
wonderful flavor.
While the production of canned
peas has not increased materially dur
ing the past few years, the quality
has been uniformly good. During the
season of 1925 there were nine fac
tories packing peas and ten during
1926. The flavor of Minnesota peas
is very good and the yields obtained
compare very favorably with those of
other states.
During the season of 1926 there were
two new modern plants constructed,
one at Montgomery for the packing
of corn and peas and another at Blue
Earth for the packing of corn only.
This season there were nine facto-
ries which packed corn and peas, one
corn, peas, beans and sauerkraut,
one-corn and beans, eighteen-corn
only, ne-blueberries, one-tomatoes,
two-sauerkraut and pickles, making
a total of thirty-three plants.
For the past seven years bacteria
logical and canning industry has been
maintained by the State Dairy and
Food Department to assist in the in.
spection of canning factories and grad
ing of products for the benefit of the
Gamers. Work in the laboratory con-
sists of grading, chemical analyses on
corn, sterilizing, advising on types,
quality of corn machinery, sanitary
improvements, technique and other
phases of the canning industry. Dur
ing the season of 1926 there were fif-
teen special inspectors stationed at
various factories to see that sanitary
condition were maintained and that
proper raw materials were used in
canning. Seven of these fourteen in.
spectors were technically trained men
who combined with their inspection
work, chemical analyses on corn, there.
by aiding the Gamers materially in
controlling the consistency and flavor
of their products.

Narragansett Turkeys

The Narragansett turkeys are al
most the same weight as the Bourbon
Red turkey or about six pounds light
er than the Bronze. They are sim
liar to the Bronze In habits. They
are good rangers and dress out nicely.
In color they are somewhat lighter
than the Bronze. They are not as
popular breed as the Bronze, White
Holland or Bourbon Red, and as a
result 1t will be more difficult to get
new stock of this breed than of any
Of the other breeds mentioned.

MINNESOTA STATE PRISON
ONE OF THE WORLDS BEST

The Minnesota State Prison, located
at Saltwater on the st. Croix river,
twenty miles east of st. Paul, with it's
$3,000,000 plant and thousand-acre
farm, is considered one of the finest
state prisons in the world.
But the Minnesota prison is more
than a fine prison, it is one of the
most efficient manufacturing plants
in the state.
With an average of slightly more
than twelve hundred prisoners en-
rolled annually, the Minnesota prison
is turning out more than 100000
worth of binder twine and farm inn
plements each year.
Warden ]. ]. Sullivan, in his last
biennial report, stated that in the pre-.
ceding two years, 4S,335,020 pounds of
Irvine had been manufactured and
sold, in addition to 5,597 binders, 1880
mowers, 1928 dump rakes, LOIS side
delivery rakes and 2,209 trucks.
The gross sales for this two year
period amounted to $7,344,673. The
net profit to the state amounted to
$103,946. Inmates were paid $164,S55
from the proceeds of these sales and
$S1S,255 was paid into the support
fund for the maintenance of the
prison.

Charcoal for Turkeys

Powdered charcoal in the feed is an
aid to digestion. Indigestion In tur-
keys is caused by irregular feeding
as often as by wrong feeding. The
turkey is creature Of habit; it likes
the meals that are given to come at
regular intervals In the Wild state
1t feeds often and little, working up
Its appetite by its own activities. If
1t gets the habit Of irregular feeding,
1t is restless and either goes past its
feed" as an Irish friend used to say,
or overeats.

Land of Milk and Honey

Minnesota rapidly is becoming a
great land of milk and honey, as
a result of the widespread growth
of sweet clover throughout the
state. Prof. Andrew Boss of the
University of Minnesota School of
Agriculture, estimates that Mime
sofa farmers would have to apply
71,110 tons of commercial fertilizer
at $50 ton, or nearly Sc, 900,
to equal the fertilizing value of the
sweet clover now grown in the
state.

NORTH SHORE ROAD is ONE
OF NATIONS FAMOUS DRIVES

Lake Superior is the largest body
OF fresh water in the world Stretch.
ing northeast from Duluth, Minnesota,
along the north shore of Lake Superior
for two hundred miles, is one of the
finest and scenically most attractive
roads on the North American con.
tinent.
The Lake Superior international
Highway, as it is called, is a part of
Minnesota Trunk Highway No. 1,
which by July 1, will be paved the
entire distance from the southern Min.
nesota state boundary near Albert Lea,
to Knife River, twenty miles north of
Duluth. From Knife River to Two
Harbors, distance of seven miles, the
wide, heavily-graveled road is kept in
splendid condition with periodical ap-
plications of calcium cloride. From
Two Harbors north for fifty miles the
road is surfaced with fine rock, which
gives a surface nearly as hard as
pavement.
The state of Minnesota has expended
more than two million dollars on the
construction of this highway, and
within ten-year period, the North
Shore Road" has become one of the
most famous drives known to the
American motorist.
