It Is twenty years or more lnoe the people of Day couuty, Mich., decided to full themselves out of tlie mud and build a permanent system of public highways, nays W. II. Guatln In Auto Advocate aud Country Iloads. It was Bay county that took the Initiative, arm bad the legislature pass an not permitting the county to establish n atpne or macadamized road system, add authorising It to raise money for the purpose of bonding, and to spread tut annual tax on all property in order to raise means to keep In repair and exjeud these macadamized roads. Since the commencement of the stone roads there has been a radical chauge 1 ::.u-'-rii. 177 if A liOAD IX BAT COrSTT. fThi farmers use wide tires.) In the manner of building them. At the outset the roadway was exenvate.l to the depth of about eight inches or a trifle more. Thru flat limestone was placed In the roadbed, r.ud on top of this was placed a layer of coarse crush ed stone, aud tl.e top dressing was a layer of finer crushed st me. Expert enee showed that the foundation etoue would work out of piace and rut i ' would form hi the road. These fla tones were then entirely discarded and the crushed stone used in their place. This plan is yet followed Under the stone road system of Bay county as It is followed nearly every farmer Is on a stone highway or with In n short distance of one, so that he Is never deprived of an ojipTrtujj'tyat" going to the city, "weather w:n ever yet iiXeHl when the stone TMlir-isrPfeln such a coud.tiou where they could not allow a farmer to take a full load of produce to market. Lur lug the sugar beet reason it Is not an uncommon thing to see a farmer sta tlcii a load cf beets upon a stone road and tlu'u haul another load from th. farm over a clay road to load it upon the standing wagon for drawing to the factory in other words, he Is enabled to draw two and three tmes as many beet on the stone roads as he can on a lay road. The farmers invariably use wide tired wagons. Formerly narrow tires prevailed, but it was soon found that In rainy seasons they cut hoies through the sune. The size of loads drawn over the macadam i-oads Is limited only by the capacity of the wagon. There isn't a farmer in Hay couuty who is not iu favor of the stone roau . A farm on one of these highways U Considered of much more value than on;. off on a side road. While it is im possible to say accurate. y how much more a farm on a stone road is worth than it would be with no stone road. It ; Is known that the owner of the piac---consider 4 it of iuest'mabie udvj-.i.::g ; benefit and value. It saves time, we.u , aud tear on wagon and harness; he can ' haul larger loads, he is not i-j'ate.l in rainy weather, a smaller team can ac , complish much more than otherwise, : and there is the satisfaction of know lng that he can come and go just when j ever h? pleases without g'ving any eon sideratiou to weather cond tious. i While the cost of supporting these j Blone thoroughfares, these arteries of i trade, falls more heavily upon the own j cr of city property than upon the farm ed or the owner of agricultural land, there Is no complaint made by the city landowner. He figures that in the long run his city property is made much niore valuable by the upbuilding of the farming section, and he pays bis etoue road tax willingly. Whut has been the effect of the stone roads upon neighboring counties? Bay City draws trade from as far east as Sebewaing Huron county, as far southeast as Vas sar. Tuscola county, and along the outheru Hue' of the county, where the stone roads run bang up to the Sagi naw county line. Saginaw county farm ers come to ISay City as their market, and they do their trading here. The same can be said of the farmers In the direction of Midland. The farmers all know about the stone roads of Bay bounty, and they come here on that ac count as well as the fact that they flud a good market here for all of their (arm produce. Bay county lias almost reached IU imit In the building of main highways. What building will be done in the fu ture will be in connecting the eads of the mala roads as a spider connects the main branches of bis web. This will accomodate the farmers living off tha atone roads and tend to enhance the value of farms which are not now considered desirable, because they are somewhat handicapped eoiopaied sritb other mote favored. IIIGIIWAYS'OF STEEL HOW THEY ARE CONSTRUCTED AND THEIR ADVANTAGES. Coat of llaallaa aad Karee Heqalred Mara l.ea llaalaae lOquallr Kaejr la Bummer, apriaa- and Wlater. TraeWa tiu.it He Taoruuu.iijr !... The modem Amcricuu steel road Is Dot so much a road of steel as it Is au Improved railway track adapted to the use of ordiuttry trucks, says tieorge K. Walsh iu Uuutou's Mugaaiue. Twelve inch plates of steel one-o,uurter of au inch thick are laid dowu on a bed of broken ston-. "or vitrified clay at the Maudard gauge of four aud a half feet. Tho rails have flaring sides, with dowu ward thtuges, which tit eveuly with the surrounding surface of stone pave ment. This latter Is raised slightly over the level of the steel plates, so that by means of the sloping guides the wheels of vehicles are conducted naturally to the steel surface Ih1ow. The plates are strongly spliced by a channel piece closely, lilting under neath the Joint in order to form a con tinuous rail of uniform learlng. The steel tracks thus formed accommodate the widest wheels of the heaviest trucks and give to them far less resist ance than the ordinary car tracks. The l..Ker nre pmeraliy toj narrow for truck tires, and the coustaut friction ug;.i::st t..e sides partly neutralizes the g..iu obtained in other way. Ti:e rci. tivo c.ist of putting down steel ro;i!s either for the city or coun try is .! tlt.it naturally calls for ca re ft 1 c ais' aerat ion. The amount of met i.l f : a of steel tracks world p- proxi; seveuty-llve to a hundred tons, i.ii Jttuittg the steel splices nnd b.ts.

This iloos not represent the lab ! .lid cost of laying the tracks nor of tixl:i.-r ill'.' adj-twut part of the road. Iri ti e eitititry districts, where the Ft"c! roads would be subjected to much 1 -i ter use than in the cities, the rails evil be narrower, and the road out Fi !o of tho line of rails could be left iv finished. This would enable drivers of vehicles to use the steel tracks con- A b.Xi-li TliACK l:OAD. tinuaily except when turning out for other trucks or wagons coming from the opposite direction. Efforts have been made by the agri cultural department to ascertain the relative amount of loss suffered by farmers through the use of poor coun try roads. In the statistics gathered of the cost of hauling on country roads, with estimates of distances and quanti ses moved, the total expenditure for this work has been found to approxi mate $DX),0yo,0oo, of which two-thirds is chargeable to bad roads. Accord lug to the estimates furnished, it was found that the average cost was 23 cents per ton per mile. In Europe, where good country roads have long been in existence, the average cost per ton per mile is as low as 8 cents. But even this rate is exorbitant compared w.th the cost of hauling on steel ro.ids. The question of steel roads is conse quently one that applies to the country ii trii ts fully as much as to the cities. Y.'i.ere o.ily the center of the road is i: adaiiihied the cost runs from 'lfy) to Lr0. With our country roads costing from )') Ij S.'J.U'H) a mile, tiie steel road V' aid prove more serviceable for many le. ions, 'i he force required to haul ti..- load over the steel plates would lie nii.cli less, aud it wouid prove equally e ... ,-y In summer, spring and winter. On the best macadam country road haul age in the winter and spring becomes almost impossible. The soft mud will work up to the surface, requiring con- ; sumt and expensive repairing, and when the spring thaw begins heavy loads cannot be hauled. Farmers are thus handicapped in the delivery of their goods at some of the most impor tant seasons of the year. The ques tion of repairs will always show a heavy balance in favor of the steel ' roads. There should lie no repairs re- 1 quired of steel roads oftener than once a year, aud these should be of little account. The steel rails should last for upward of a quarter of a century In the ordinary country districts where trailic is light. A good deal depends upon the thor oughness of putting down the steel tracks. There must be a perfect foun dation of stones, gravel or burned clay for the steel plates. The foundation must be built down far enough to in sure ierfect solidity and the surface finished off with cobblestones largo enough to give the rails stability in freezing and thawing weather. The Height of the rails and their continu ous length will ordinarily make them firm and steady on almost any kind of a foundation, but where the soil sags and Is washed out In places the con stant pounding of the rails will In time weaken the channel pieces and ties. The weak parts of the ateel roads are at these Joints, but If provided with proper stone foundations at eacb Joint there abould be little danger of any In jurious strain or friction. WINTER CAKE OF SHEEP The sheep pen should be dry, well ventilated ami protected from drafts, writes E. Vuu ANtyue hi Iturul New Yorker. There should le a door to thut the flock lu at night or when It Is stormy and to shut them out when food Is put In. The hay will be kept off their Iwicks, the feed can bo evenly distributed lu the racks aud maugers. and the sheep will not crowd on one another or the feeder. It Is an advan tage for them to have a dry yard to run iu when the weather Is fair. The best brood for wool and mutton Is a question that each advocate of his par ticular breed will answer from bis own viewpoint. All things considered, the Shropshire or their grades will cer- mmwM M;r.i:r l; w ks. tainiy be s.itiia ioiy. If the pastures au' rather rau'.i ;:tal hilly the Cheviots will I a 1 1 sc m con !.

Then the whole space can le given to the sheep, with noth ing to crowd against. The hayrack on top prevents tho sheep gi tting it) the feed trough, and, as they can only put their noses through the shits, they da uot get their wool so saturated with hayseeds. The feed mangers will catch the coarse parts of the hay left, and it can be gathered up and is read ily ealou by horses. These mangers must be carefully swept each time be fore the graia or roots are fed. We feed the grain ou the roots. These racks may also be made double, as shown, and set away from the wall. Then the sheep cau food from each side, the racks can be set In the center of the pen. and when lambing time comes oli make a partition to divide the flock, separating those with lambs from the ones that have yet to lamb, which should always le done for best results. Take 'are of the i'nnl. Weaning time presents lis diiilculties and dangers. Tew farmers fail to un derstand the fundamentals of weaning foals successfully, but many of them from neglect or carelessness do uot practice them, says Breeder's Gazette. It seems a great pity that a foal ou which the dam has expended her best effort during the summer season should be allowed to retrograde now that the mother must be relieved of her burden and dry feed be substituted for milk. Care Is the main thing. Young stock cannot thrive without watching. Fouls cannot be fed as hogs are fattened. The eye of the muster is Indeed here necessary. Horses are high in price. Surely the foal that It paid to breed should not be allowed to go backward, especially this season where succulent feed has been so long available and hay aud sound oats in stn-h liberal sup ply. Italalntr CooU Steera. To do the best with beef cattle they should be raised on the farm and kept growing to their full capacity. Well bred steers haudled iu this manner may be marketed in eighteen months, weighing to pounds, and selling for i?tJ5 to $70. To do this it would of course be necessary to have the best beef breeds. But why should not many eastern dairymen carry selected Shorthorn or other suitable cows and use a good Shorthorn bull? There would be every facility for push lug the calves ou a dairy farm, and the best results should be regularly obtain ed. This would permit of the number of cows being reduced, lessening the labor without seriously affecting the net Income. I'lulaliiuiC lloxa. Sometimes a hog grower gets many kinds aud sizes in his herd. Some times be neglects to castrate males till they come to be of a size that they will not thrive. Such a combination al ways works a loss to the owner. Dif ferent sizes fed together cannot do as well as assorted into smaller lots of even sizes. Particularly is this true when cold weather cornea on. To get a nice finish on them, whether light or heavy, they should be in bunches of even size. The farmer with a lot of different sizes who is not situated so be can divide them according to size will do well to sell part to some one who can. National Stockman. Italian For I.aiuba. As a result of e.ier!meiits in lamb feeding at the Wyoming experiment station it was fchown that It Is possible to fatten lambs without grain ou a cheap ration of alfalfa, turnips nnd oil meal, and such rations will be further iuvestigated. A complete and well bal anced ration of alfalfa, turnips, corn aud oilmeal gave the largest gains on the smallest actual amount of nutri ents in the food. Car of Ewea. Ewes ought to be kept in medium con dition. For eight or even nine months In the year they do not require oil cake or com, and the time to spend money upon them is when they art nursing. A M THE AIL1NQ HOKCC. Proper War to Adatlalaler Medlrtna to Sick AalniaU. In giving liquid medicines to n horse, tays the Horse World, have tho mcul rlne hi a stout bottle with a sloping shoulder an ordinary "pop" liottlo does very well and do not add any more water to It than Is necessary to properly dilute It, as a very huge ilreneh Is dlllleult to administer. Next get the horse In a good position so that lie Las to take his medicine. If the construction of the stable per mils It, back him Into a single stall, throw a roH over the beam at the back, make a noose on the cud of It, pass It under tho nose band of the halter aud place It In the horse's mouth iH'tflw the upper Jaw. Now raise the horse's head until the medicine will run back In the mouth. lHm't pull It too high or the horse will have dltllculty In swallowing and there Is danger of the medicine going the wrong way. You can easily keep the head lu this position by holding the rope lu one hand while you pour In the drench with the other. Pulling out the tongue mid sqiitvr.iug anil thumping on the throat are quite useless as Inducements to the horse to swallow and may cause cough lig Should coughing occur, the head should be released at once even If the UKV.iciiie Is l .-.t, an otherwise It miuht get Into I he lungs. This is a nun h bet ter nud more humane way thau putting up the head with n twitch, and I. cuh is usually given without any dlt'.iculty. Mlllrt na a Murk I' -.!. So far as nutritive properties lire concerned the seed of milict U almost ou a par with oats, says Michigan l':ruicr. The seeos. however, nay not readily digestible, and it Is therefore advised that they be reduced to tho form of meal before feeding. Ill the firm of hay It Is rell lied by bor.-es, cattle and sheep If It has been cut U' fore the stems have become coarse and reedy. In nutritive value it sur passes timothy and nearly equals rod top aud blue grass hay. Weil authenti cated experiments reveal the fact that millet as a steady diet Is Injurious to horses, affecting the kidneys and later the joints nnd bones. While so far as kuowu no such trouble has been expe rienced lu feeding It to other animals, it will probably lie safest to feed other j roughage and grain with It. Itape For Sheep. With rape for summer feeding and alfalfa for the winter, a Hock may be fill at least possible expense, but with the greatest maximum of prollt, says American Sheep Breeder. Alfalfa is the cheapest permanent crop known. Ka;ie Is the cheapest annual plant kuowu, for it gives the largest quanti ty of feed tit the least cost nnd labor mil, liesides, leaves the laud lu the best possible couditiou. The mere pres ence of rape on the land Is worth, in aiitiou to the value of the feeding for t-heep, no small trilie in its in creased productiveness. Alfalfa has nearly one half more protein, or matter containing nitrogen, than red clover aud Is therefore so much more valu able for sheep. The Brood Mare. j Pregnant brood mares that are turn- j ed Into tields where feed Is abundant ! early In the morning, when the grass Is j frozen or covered with frost, will bo j very liable to abort or suffer from colic. To insure safety keep them In their, stalls until the sun has melted the frost. Horse Breeder. TIIE SWINEHERD The Poland-China Is the best bog for general purposes, writes a Maryland j farmer lu American Agriculturist. It is a ijuick maturer, ready for the mar- j ket ut any age and cau be made u heavyweight If necessary. I call It j the poor man's hog. What I meau by that Is Just this: These hogs are ready to sell at any time when the farmer's pocketbook needs replenishing. A few preach that feed makes the hog, but 1 ! say breed and feed must go together. A man can breed a ham ou a hog, but be cannot feed one ou. Look at the ham on a well .bred Poland-China. It is well rounded, extending down to and sometimes covering the hock. Can one be fed on a common hog like that? The Poland-China Is primarily a lard hog. Our butchers seem to like it very well, as the fat and lean are not mixed and can be easily separated. Tne Rial 11. The runt seldom if ever pays. The animal that pays is the one that gets a good start in the world nnd keeps It. It may pay to raise the runt if feed Is no Item. If feed is bought, the owner Is better off if the runt is In the other man's pen. Selection of Swine. No animal of any breed will uniform ly beget young that are all of superior excellence. 1'rudent swluenten seem to realize this fact more than lo any oth er kind of stock breeders and do not hesitate to use the knife accordingly. Value of llie lioar. In selecting! n boar the price should not control the calculations If tho pur chaser has an Idea of building up a val uable herd. If a fanner has ten brood animals, improved stock from a first class sire will very soon pay in the ex tra weight of pigs and pay tho second time In the value of a well graded herd. Car of Ue Bow, Feed brood sows moderately until after the pigs come and then Increase the feed gradually until they are week old, when the sows should be ou full feed. It Is Important to give the sow mom slop before she farrows to Insure a good flow of milk. 'JV THE If Btfor You Purchase Any Other Write THE NEW HOMt ItWIKB MAOHINf COMPANY ORANOC, Mes.
