LOCAL ROADS FOR LONG HAUL

tPrtptred by th United Stitei Drpaftmsnt
of Agriculture.)
The United Stutes Is now In n period
Of great highway development, nnd In
a few years many roads, which now
carry only local truffle originating
largely within five or ten miles of the
road, will be currying a large percent
age of through traffic, much of it com.
lng from outside the stale. This Is
the opinion of oflieluls of the hureuu
of public roads, United Stntcs Depart
ment of Agriculture, based upon the
report of two truffle censuses taken by
the bureau in co-operntion with the
atute highway department of Connecti
cut. The roads selected were part of a
fairly complete system of highways.
The first census showed nn average of
2,1)07 passenger cars and 281 trucks
passing the recording station a day;
and the second, 3.832 curs und Oil
trucks. Forty-seven per cent of the
cars came from within , the stale.
Driven were questioned as to length
of travel for the duy, and results
showed averuge figures of 70 miles and
62.4 miles for the two censuses.
The averuge haul for truck truffle
wns 47.5 miles, some of them hauling
a distance of 2.ri0 miles. Officials point
out that truffle of this nature has de
veloped lii a period of something like
ten vpur "n n rond whMi prior to
COW TESTING BENEFITS HERD
Profitable Results Obtained by Mem
bers of Organization In Wis
consin Community.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
"As members of the Cedar Grove
cow-testing association for the pnst
three nnd one-half years Ve hnve ob
tained some protltiihie results," writes
the owner of a Wisconsin furm to a
I field ngent of the Dairy Division of
the United States Department of Agri
culture. "When we stnrted, our herd
averaged 11.S29 pounds of milk and
410.2 pounds of butter fat. while last
year our average was 13,737 pounds of
milk nnd 502.2 pounds of butter fat.
We were encouraged by our tester to
mix our rations before feeding and to
milk some of our cows three times

A Federal-Aid Gravel Road.

flc. It must be concluded, therefore,
they say, that roads which are now be
ing Improved to form part of through
highway routes should be designed
to take care of a great deul more than
the local traffic or Hurt which Is ex
pected to orlginato locally with the
coming of better rouds.
WORE WAR EQUIPMENT READY
L:rge Amount of Lumber and Other
Material Made Available for
' Road Construction.
Five million board feet of lumber
and $220,000 worth of other surplus
v.r material, consisting of steam and
gas engines nnd nmchlnc-shop equip
ment, all unused, recently was .made
available to state highway depart
ments for road construction. The
material Is to he distributed by the
bureau of public rouds, United States
l'purtment of Agriculture, va were
large quantities which were helpful to
many states in road building last seu
vn. Most of the lumber was Intended
by the army for the construction of
it pier nt Charleston, S. C, nnd is sult-nl-le
for highwiiy bridges. The tnn
ci.lnery anil equipment are stored us
ordnance supplies tit the I'lcatlnny
nrsentil, Dover, Del. Tills material is
particularly In demand and an allot
ment has been requested by euch of
the 48 states.
FRENCH ROADS BROKE
Some persons have pointed to
the macadam roads of Prance as
the type of roads that America
should adopt. Yet these persons
have, perhaps, not thoroughly In
vestigated present conditions.
These roads, which have been a
matter of pride to France for
centuries, are nil maintained by
patrolmen. Each man. devotes
his time the year around to the
keeping up of a fevr hundred
yards of roadway. But, even so,
these rouds wont to pieces when
heavy trntllc wus put on them
during the war. These rouds
were built for horse and foot
traffic, and served tnut purpose
very well, but motor lorries,
guns, etc., cut up these roads
quickly.
Prevent Road Destruction.
In campaign to prevent destruc
tion of the highways by overland
vehicles, the state department of pub
lic works of Massachusetts has In
spectors stationed on all of the Im
portant traffic routei lo the state for
the purpose of weighing the loads of
motor trucks.

cows. Some of the cows mode two
and one-half times as much as other
individuals do.
"It was through the tester's sug
gestion that we started In with pure
bred cattle In earnest, and some day
we are going to have a good pure-bred
herd. Another thing the testing
showed us is that we hud sold a regis
tered bull to be slaughtered which had
five daughters that nvornged over 13,

be remembered a long time.
