CHECKING NOXIOUS WEEDS, That Methods of Construction Adopted ! by an Ohio County. MACADAM IS TOO EXPENSIVE. Homer W. Jackson Tall Why Prop erly Constructed Brick Highways ! Are Cheaper Than Stone One Ten Feet Wide Enough For Country Use. Washington county, O., has pretty definitely committed Itself to a policy of brick road building. The county officials and the different city and country organizations are a unit on the subject Some work has already been done, and a comprehensive road build ing campaign only waits on a little more definite knowledge as to what scheme of road building will best suit local conditions. The unanimity of opinion as to the desirability of brick roads is surpris ing. I attended a monthly meeting of the Valley Farmers' club, a social or ganization which unites the farmers of the Ohio valley in Washington county, where the subject of an afternoon de bate was, Shall Washington county issue bonds for $100,000 to build brick roads? This club has a membership of about 200, and probably 125 were present at the debate, but If there wag a man among them who did not favor brick roads he did not say so either In public or private. The member who took the negative side of the ques tion in the debate contended that with their present knowledge of brick road umieriai ana construction they were not yet ready to expend large sums, As the facts become known about the relative cost of stone and brick roads and the enormous cost of main lumiug me xormer prick roads are rapidly growing In popularity. While It Is true that brick roads cost more than stone, the difference Is not as great as is generally thought In Wash Line of Road Improvement Should Not Be Overlooked It is encouraglug to see the attention that is being paid to good roads all through the United States. Various state organizations are taking the mat ter up. national conventions are being held, and an International meeting was recently called to convene In France. Everything points toward better high ways, better facilities for marketing crops and better conditions for the farmer. A good road brlugs one nearer to bis neighbors, nearer to his church and school and nearer to bis market. The time will soon come when one will speak of a farm as being ten minutes distant from town rather than two miles. The popularity which the auto mobile is rapidly acquiring among farmers will promote this good roads movement There is a splendid opportunity for the Individual to help the good work along by taking care of the roads In front of his own farm. There Is no surer method than to take pride In the rond that goes past your door. j There is one line of rond Improve mentthe holding lu check of noxious weeds that Is frequently overlooked. Every roadway can be kept free from these with comparatively little labor If the matter is taken up promptly, Each weed that matures bears a more prolific crop of seed than Its prede cessor. If the fence corners and the roadside are kept free It will be an easy matter to exterminate the unde sirable weed pests which ere coming to be a decided problem. If you can not drag your road, you can at least have regard for your adjacent field to keep the weeds from growing along the roadside. Government Bureau's Sound Ad vice on Road Drainage. TRAINING THE HORN. VALUE OF THE SILO. REMOVE ALL WATER QUICKLY, MAINTENANCE OF HIGHWAYS. Feature of the Patrol System to Keep Roads In Good Condition. The new state highway commission has announced that It expects to adopt the patrol system for the maintenance of the state and county highways here tofore Improved by state nld. This will Involve the maintenance of force of some 180 patrolmen, each with a horse and cart and each assigned to look after the repair of ten miles of rond. This system involves an ex pense of $(!0 a year per mile of road to be repaired. It has been success fully followed out in keeping In con dltlon Improved highways lu Massa chusetts and in certain foreign coun tries, and under the system the roads are kept In Fuch a state of efficiency thnt much in the way of expensive re pair work is avoided. The commission has also voted to establish Immediately a bureau of re search for the purpose of Investigat ing the various methods of construc- llon In vogue In neighboring states and for conducting experiments with a view to ascertaining the best form of construction which will be adapted to the present conditions, having In mlud especially the great damage caused by automobile traffic. That on Surface and Underground as Well Center of Highway Should Be Raised Size of Tiles and Laying Them Matter of Importance. The United States oflice of public roads lu Washington sent out the fol lowing bulletin regarding the proper manner of road drainage: With an average of 27.000 tons of water falling in the form of rain on each mile of public road In the United States annually, it Is scarcely to be marveled at that the ten command ments of the road builder can be sum med up succinctly in the word "drain age. The saying has trutn ror a basis, as good drainage Is the primary requisite for all roads. Even In sand roods this holds true, for there "good drainage" means such as will safely remove the storm water without ero sion or gullying and still retnln the surface moisture. To obtain good drainage one must take Into consideration both the sur face water and the underground wa ter. The surface water must be re moved quickly and completely and without subjecting the road to excess ive scour of erosion. For this reason the center of the road should be raised. and the slope toward the side ditches should he from one-half to one Inch to each foot distance, or so that the water will run freely to the side ditches and not flow down the road or remain in puddles on the roadway. The side ditches should be of ample size to care for the severest storms, with a fall of not less than six inches to each hundred feet. Frequent, am ple cross drains should be constructed and every opportunity taken to get the water away from the road as quickly as possible. Any road along which you see water standing In the side ditches or on which puddles of water have collected or which has been badly gul lied and eroded by the rains has poor drainage and is in need of Immediate attention. In fact, earth roads nearly always require a little attention after each rain. The split log drag is essentially a tool to maintain good drainage ou our By C. M. ADAMS. The use of silos has three great ad vantages over dry feed methods. It Is more economical, the feeding value of the product is Improved, and silos make cattle feeding profitable, hence help to maintain soil fertility. The economy of silage results from the fact that cattle will readily eat the entire stalk In silage form, while In whole or shredded dry fodder a goodly portion of the stalk is refused. If fod der Is stored In a dry shed the per centage waste lu curing is not much different from the same In silos since there Is a portion of silage on top thnt spoils, but If corn Is husked lu the field the same crop In silage is worth at least 25 per cent more. If the crop Is to be stored the silo Is the most economical storage room. since nearly twice the amount of dry matter may be stored In the same space In the form of silage than as fodder; also crops may ofteu be si loed that would otherwise be lost. The greatest recommendation for a silo Is thnt It Increases the feeding value of a crop. The Increased feed ing value does not result from In creased digestibility or from changed 5j3 lfllliiiE liSpi iBBllI iH?8 &SS . LAYING) BBIOE ON A SIXTEEN FOOT ROAD, ington county, for example, brick road are being built at a cost of only $2,000 to $3,000 per mile more than macad amized roads would cost and It baa been found that the cost of maintain ing the latter will in six or eight years consume all the difference. After that the maintenance of the stone road con tinues increasingly expensive, while the properly constructed brick road will under ordinary conditions need no repairs for an indefinite period. One of Washington county's farmer observed, "The first cost of a stoue road Is only the beginning of the ex pense; the brick road Is an asset" Here, as elsewhere. It has been found that the best argument for brick roads is a brick road. Two or three years ago the first one was built for a dis tance of half a mile along the Ohio river where the road Is flooded two or three times a year and where It waa conceded that no other kind of a road would "stay put" for a single season. The brick road stayed, and every farm er who drove Into Marietta over that rood is clamoring for Its extension. At the time of my visit to Washing ton county last fail the commissioner were finishing two new brick roads. One up the Muskingum valley is six teen feet wide with two feet of gravel outside the curb and two feet of earth berni outside the gravel, practically a twenry-rour root roadway. Here the brick Is laid on a seven to eight Inch gravel base with concrete curb, brick. curb and berm all rolled to an even surface. The cost of this road waa $11,500 a mile, and It was built under state aid law. On the west side of the Muskingum river, on the ridge above Marietta, they were building a ten foot brick road. This road was built on a direct levy made by the county commissioners, and the fact that tbey dared to make uch a levy proves bow generally pub lic sentiment approves this kind of road building. This road baa a broken stone base with two feet of stone and two of earth berm, making an eight een foot roadway. The curb on this road is of brick. While this Is the cheapest of all curbing, opinions differ aa to Its permanence. Certainly the berm must b kept op most carefully, as any falling away of the support will let the curb down. The cost of the different curbs nsed was put $1,000 a mile for stone, $2,230 to $2,500 for concrete and $1,500 to $1300 for brick. This ten foot road cost sbout the same as the sixteen foot $11,840 for 6.000 feet owing to the fact that it was laid out among the hill, where f be grading was besrler, the hauls longer and harder and cracked (tone used In place of gravel. The ten foot roadway re-enforced with eight feet of atone and earth bens) seems wide enough for ordinary coun try roads and met the approval of roost farmers I Interviewed.

Southern Expert Finds It Cheaper and Best Material to Use. They are making roads of Rawdjst mixed with earth on a new plan In Ieon county, Fla. Two ridges of earth are thrown up with a road machine at the required width from each other, and the space between Is filled with a six Inch bed of sawdust. This Is fol lowed with a smaller machine, which plows up and mixes the earth with the sawdust This makes a roadbed on which the tires of the heaviest loaded vehicles make no Impression. The contractor. (1. II. Averitt has kept an accurute account of expenses in con nection with this section of sawdust and earth road and says the cost ag gregates $297 a mile, showing it to be about the cheapest road material In use. It may be suggested that sawdust Is not a durable mnterlnl, but the Florida True Democrat meets this objection with the statement that one ,or two such roads were constructed In a south Georgia county twenty years ago and are still In good condition, showius Its durability. As la well known, Leon county soil Is clayey. Oil For Country Roads. A most Interesting experiment Is be ing conducted In central Illinois near Springfield The state highway com mission Is making a test of oil on country roads. While oil ronds are no novelty In many parts of the United States, they are not known on the heavy black soil of central Illinois The top soli of the road Is being mixed with an asphalt oil to the depth ft six Inches. In many puns uf the Sucker State stone mads are out of the ques tion. Without the material near at hnnd the great prairie states cannot expect to have stone pikes, as do some of the eastern states Good roads must be secured by drainage, special care and possibly by the use at oil This experiment will be watched with a great deal of Interest. Result of Bad Roads. There Is another matter that makes bad roads a factor of loss. That Is In the sale of the farm A farm ten miles out on a road Impassable for five months In the year has five-twelfths of Its usefulness Impaired and Is cer ts Inly worth 33 1-3 per cent Intrinsic ally less than It should be wore the roads not so td (tad road are a de terrent to settlement thns driving so additional sine a war from farm land due to Increasing population. They act as a repellant force to drive the boys and girls and desirable citizens from farm life. A KOAD THAT DRAINAGE WOULD IMI'KOVF, earth roads and should be used after each rain. On a heavy clay or gumbo soil the drag when properly used tends to puddle the road surface, keep it free from ruts, dense, smooth and bard, thus securing the best surface drain age possible. But in many places the underground water Is too near the surface and must be removed before a good road will be possible. This means that some form of subdralnage must be resorted to, usually tile drains or clay or concrete. Water from whatever source must be got rid of effectively. As water In freezing expands one- eighth Its volume, the road heaves out of shape, and when the Ice melts the road disappears beneath the rising tide of mud constantly fed by rains, melt ing snows and underground springs. In seepy and boggy places the sub- drainage In order to be fully effective should lower the water level to not less than three feet below the road surface. If tiles are used they should be carefully laid, true to grade. Most failures In tile drainage can be at tributed to carelessness In laying or too nat grade. Tile less than four Inches In diameter should rarely be used, nor should a grade of less than six inches to the hundred feet be used unless absolutely necessary. In a very aense son it Is alwavs advlsnhla t cover the tile to at least a denth of six to twelve Inches with a coarse sand or One gravel. Care should always be taken to procure a free outlet for the arains and to protect the outlet with a concrete bulkhead nr .nth h..h which can always be kept clean and me outlet free. The kind of tile to be used depends ou iocai conditions. Concrete tile if properly made Is quite as good as clay i"f. .1 men Kina to use Is entirely a iocai question or dollars and cents. If concrete tile can be made more cheap ly than clay tile can be had, use con crete; if not, use clay tile. Pennsylvania' New Road. According to the report of the state highway commissioner of Pennsylva nia. 325 miles of new roads were built daring the past year at a cost of $3.- 300.000 or mora.

Convict Labor In Building of Roads, At a recent meeting of the national good roads board, held In New Tork city. Senator C. T. Lasslter of Virginia outlined the method of building roads with convicts in the Old Dominion. C. Gordon Xeff, the chairman nf th. board, has decided to make a canvass or me entire United States to find out which states employ convicts In the Duuuing or rosds.

Owing to its succulence, silage, like grass, keeps the bowels regulated and tends to maintain that degree of healthful vigor so essential In bard worked dairy and breeding animals. Some silo advantages are Indirect The most laudable thing about the Bllo harvest system Is that It does away with selling crops off the land. thereby depleting soil fertility. It mokes possible a system of stock farming whereby nearly all the fer tilizing constituents are thrown back on the soil in the form of manure. Chief among silage crops Is corn. If a large amount of coarse feed Is want ed It pays to plant some large stalk southern variety, but If a richer feed Is wanted northern varieties, which yield more grain, should be used. In either case a variety should be select ed that will mature before frost In the south sweet sorghum has been found to be a good silage crop, as the tonnage per acre is greater than corn and the heads yield a fair percentage of grain. Red clover, alfalfa and peas have been used, but owing to their Juiciness It Is difficult to get silage from them that will not sour. Mixed crops have also been used, but tbey rarely pay for the added trouble of mixing. Plants with hollow stems are unsatisfactory since it is so difficult to force out the air. There are several practicable types of silage cutting machines on the mar ket The blower elevator is used al most altogether now. In filling the silo care should be taken to tramp well next to the walls. It is best to take several days In filling, so that the air may be forced out more completely, thereby making a sweeter flavored silage. Silage is pre-eminently a cow feed. It Bnds greatest favor with dairy cat tle since It may be made to reproduce succulence of grass In winter or may serve to uphold the milk flow during a drought in summer. In dairies near cities where pasture Is not available It often determines the difference be tween profit and loss by supplanting costly grain foods. It also makes pos sible the rearing of calves cheaply to replenish the herd. Some complaint has been made against the flavor of milk from silage fed cows, but there la no danger from this source If the silage Is first class unless the milk is allowed to remain in open vessels In the barn and so absorb the odors. On the general farm the good effect or silage on the health of the breeding nera ana young stock In winter can hardly be overestimated. It la an ex cellent feed for ewes with lambs. It may be nsed in small quantities for maintaining horses, though it is too sappy to feed work horses. Ordinary Gas Pip 8aid to Bs Bait For This Purpose, Few of us can Ignore the dictates of fashion. We wear a certain kind of rlothes because it is the fashion to do so. We get Into stiff and affected ways In our relation to society because fash ion says that we must do this and we must do that Even In handling rarm animals we cannot always have our own way, but must conform to certain decrees of fashion. The subject Is brought up at this time by a farmer who finds himself In possession of a bull having very un fashionable horns, says the Homestead His desire Is to have the horns curve nicely toward the front and downward, but Instead of this the points of the horns are getting farther away from the head every day. He asks about the advisability of using "horn train era" or any other device to bring these into the desirable shape. He calls at tention to the fact that one Instance came under his notice where a horn trainer resulted In destroying the ends of both horns, making the last stage of the animal worse than the first. We shall take It for granted that the animal in question is either a Short horn or a Hereford, though this mat ter Is not stated. In our opinion no device yet Invented will take the place of "weight" applied alike to each horn We have tried the brass raps that are ordinarily found on the market, but have never been able to obtalu caps of sufficient weight to bring about the desired results. Ono of the best and simplest plans that we have ever tried Involves the use of a piece of ordinary gas pipe or, what Is still better, the use of two "unions." A union Is noth ing more or less than the Joint used for connecting two pipes of different sizes. The diameter of one side of the union may be three Inches and the ofher side two inches. This lessening of size makes It fit the shape of the born snugly. Of course In case of a large animal it may be necessary to use a uulon four inches In diameter st one end and three Inches at the other, but In the case of a young animal the first size mentioned Is generally large enough. Place one on each horn and then wire securely from one to the other. So much the better If they go on to the horn so that two or three Inches of the tip project beyond the end of the un Ion, because when the weight Is ap plied in that way the effect will be to bend the horn at the base rather than to give the end an undesirable tilt downward. In addition to applying the weight In this way it Is a very good thing to weaken the born at the lower side of the base by a little filing or cutting. The Instructions given above only apply In cases where It Is the intention to give the horn a downward curve with an Inward tendency, the weight applied In this case tending to bring the horn down, and the wiring will re sult In gradually training the horns closer together at the point When it comes to the matter of giving the horns an upward curve, as is desired In the case of Jersey cattle, It must be confessed that this is largely the work of an expert and an amateur Is very apt to do more harm than good.
