When work is started on the high way and it is seen that It will go without any further hitches, then the task of advertising the wonder can begin. There was very little use in getting out literature this year in view of the pending developments but when it is proved beyond a doubt i that it will be completed. It will be time to start an Intensive campaign. Not only advertising is necessary but capital must also be found that can be used to provide a place for the tourist to stay. The awarding of the* contract only begins the work of local organizations. 1 HENS WITHOUT WHEAT : More Eggs Obtained From Pen LOSS IN BEEF CATTLE of Rhode Island Reds.

In the case of swine on farms, the average price per head, all ages, de- dined in the two years 1919 and 1920, 88 per cent of the gain In 1917 and 1918, and two-thlnls of the decline was in 1920. From 1916 to 1919. the average farm value of the product of corn per acre increased from $21.67 to $38.54. The corn crop of 1920, taking the average value of the product of one acre, fell to $20.93. and this drop not only wiped out the gain of- the preceding three years but perceptibly exceeded It.
