Fast Work Done By
Modern Machinery

Several attempts were made last
year by the county agent, Max Nc
Millin, to secure bull dozer for land
clearing in Pine county, and these
attempts met with little success. One
machine was secured for the county
for a short time but the owner got
contract job and pulled out The
past winter, however, the county
agent secured an outfit from Crom-
well owned by Reimer and Goodman
and this unit has already started to
work in the county.
The first days work was done
on Melvin Anderson's farm located
west of Brook Park, and this is the
story of the days work: Mr.. Ander-
son had about 91z acres of ground
from which he wanted the stumps
removed and few standing elm, oak
and birch trees and some green white
oak stumps. Mr.. Anderson also had
some ditching done on this acreage
and some rock rolled out of the
ground. Mr.. Anderson had agreed
to hire the outfit for 10 hours at S5
an hour, which is the price charged
and figured that if they cleaned up
this piece before the time was up.
he would have them take out a few
remaining stumps in his pasture.
Makes Fast Time.
The outfit started to work at z
o'clock and people began to come
to watch shortly after and kept ON
coming all day. In seven hours the
912 acre field was finished and the
dozer moved to the pasture. In 11a
hours all the stumps were out of
the pasture, some big rocks rolled
off and some old windfalls leveled.
and Mr.. Anderson was out of work
for the bull dozer. The ditch Mr.
Anderson had made was % rods
long and this ditch was made to a
depth of a little over one foot as it
was made to take off surface water
only. This ditch was made by the
bull dozer in 13 minutes actual tim
ing, and although a little smoother
job could have been done by spending
a little more time on the ditch, it
was made good enough to accomplish
its purpose.
The next morning the machine
started to work on VIM. Anderson'S
farm and had several jobs lined up
in this vicinity. Anyone who saw
the outfit work, Mr.. McMillin stated
will agree that it is much cheaper,
faster and also safer than dynamite,
and it is anticipated that this ma
chine will be working in the county
all summer. Anybody wishing work
done can probably find out where the
machine is by inquiring at the Brook
Park creamery as the operators were
going to leave word at this place
where they would be from day to day
From the foregoing account it
should not be assumed that the bulT
dozer is going to clean up whole
farm in a day or two as there are
many varying conditions. However,
interested farmers can see what work
has been done and watch the machine
in operation and judge for themselves
how long it will take on their own
place.

BY newspaper, poster, radio, win
dow display and word Of mouth,
Washington people are being in
formed of the drive to collect $780,
900 for the Police Boys Clubs Of
our city. Undoubtedly many of you
have already been approached for
donations, and there is no more
worthy cause to which you can con-
tribute.
The District of Columbia Congress
of Parents and Teachers always
have given its approval to this
constructive effort on the part OF
the Washington police to provide
legitimate leisure time activities for
the boys of our city and it is
heartily indorsing the present CAM
paign.
There are opportunities of almost
any kind of leisure time activity in
the Boys Clubs. There are we'll
equipped libraries, gymnasiums,
swimming pools, competently di-
rected athletic teams. The spirit of
friendly competition is fostered, and
by this very thing the boys learn
to accept defeat with good grace
and to acknowledge victory with
modesty.
Fifty thousan dollars seems like
a large sum to be used for super
vised recreation for a selected class.
But from statistics It. is well proven
that every dollar expended in this
manner is returned many times over
in the principles Of good citizenship
instilled in the boys. thereby pre-
venting the petty acts Of vandalism
which are so costly to any COM
munity.
Prevention Is far better than cor
rection-and far less costly, not only
in dollars and cents, but In the
moral quality Of the boys concerned.
