buy at retail a lot of stuff they
could Just as we'll as not raise on
their farms if they would use
common sense and elbow grease.
"a farmers first aim," went on
the farmer, should be to raise
enough stuff off his farm to feed
his family and his stock; then he
can live no matter what happens
to his cash crop. If he depends
on his cash crop to buy food for
his family and his stock, and his
cash crop fails or he can't get
anything for it, he is sunk right
there. My barn loft is full of hay
and my bins are full of grain.
And our cellar has enough canned
stuff, preserves, pickles and sor-
ghum to run us two years. A
farmer has got to figure two years
ahead for he never can tell when
he will have bad year and cant
raise anything much. What with
our cows and our chickens and
our pigs they couldn't starve us
and it doesn't cost much of any
thing to feed our stock either, be-
cause we raise all the feed our
selves"
The farmer stared down the
road where the wagon laden with
hay and feed had gone. "And he

disgust. "I'll bet you could go

street and Rhode Island avenue at
either side of the circle
AS a further step in direction OF
traffic by physical arrangements, the
present corners of streets abutting the
circle would be set back to ease the
flow of traffic through the circle.
Whereas N street, to both the east and
west of the circle, now come to dead
ends, the proposed plans would pro-
vide easy access to the circle, Capt.
Whitehurst said.
THE plan may look complicated
, on paper, but in actual practice it
would be simple as compared with
what we have now" said Capt. White
hurst.
"At present, at some points at Scott
Circle, and on some other wide inter-
sections, there is really too great a
width. Drivers of automobiles are
inclined to wander from one lane to
another, then come to point where
there is not enough room for such
weaving. The proposed system of is
lands is intended to prevent such
weaving, to keep traffic in channels
and prevent congestion and tie-ups.

reading of wind velocity in miles per

The wind direction indicator also
Is electrically operated and, like the

N adopted for Washington If
L y plans of Highway Director
H. c. Whitehurst are approved for
control of conditions at Scott Circle.
The proposed new system is based
on development of "directional is
lands" which will provide for the
"channelizing of traffic"
The motivating principle was copied
from ideas in operation in Milwaukee,
which has achieved outstanding sue
cess in modern handling OF traffic
movements and in a reduced toll in
traffic accidents
Rearrangement of Scott Circle, 1t
Is estimated, will cost some $4,000.
The plans are offered by Capt. White
hurst as an improvement which he
will recommend if the taxpayers be-
ueve the result will be worth the cost.
There would be 13 comparatively
small sections of parks in the public
area at the intersection of eight
streets at Scott Circle, instead OF the
present circle, two traffic directional
strips of parking and two parking
areas, as at present, if his plans are
adopted. He declares that while the
area of public parks there may be
slightly diminished under his plans,
the beauty of the area would not be
appreciably damaged. He believes the
resulting benefits would outweigh the
losses, if any.
What is "channelized" traffic direc-
ton?
Briefly it is plan of developing
low islands for trees or lawns which
would have the purpose of directing
traffic easily into their proper chan
nels," said Capt Whitehurst. These
islands, while adding to the beauty of
an intersection, are intended to guide
the flow Of traffic so as to avoid con-
restion and confusion"
The present circle in the center of
Scott Circle would be reduced and
shaped so as to guide traffic flowing
directly north and south. To the east
and west of the reduced center strip
there would be developed large new
islands. In the centers of these would
be placed the Hanneman and the Web
ster statutes. Small triangular islands
would be developed at the north and
south intersections of the circle with
Sixteenth street. Also there would be
four "directional" islands to the east
and west of the circle to guide traffic

and deliberate consideration of
the Tobacco Compact Bill, the
joint house and senate agriculture
comittees. after listening to con-
flicting opinion for two hours,
has considered the problems to
subcommittee.
The subcommittee will have
before it four amendments pro-
posed yesterday afternoon by leg
iSlators and a fifth drafted last
night by farm leaders. The amend
ments would guarantee that the
small farmers allotment would
not be reduced below a specified
minimum and would require pub
LEGATION of growers names, their
allotmentS and percentage of cul-
tivatcd acreage in tobacco.
In addition to senate agricul-
ture committee chairman, w. G..

gin of Henderson.
AS at Tuesdays public hearing,
controversy hinged upon the pro-
visions of Section Five of the
Compact, relating to the allotment
of acreage and marketing quotas.
One amendment would place a
minimum for the little grower at
80 acres for flue-cured tobacco
and maximum at 80 per cent OF
cultivated acreage. Another would
allot the same pounds per acre to
every farm in the state.
