D., ta Auto Advocate and Country Honda. As general thing, Tory little attention Is paid t the subject of good road In North Dakota. Only exceptionally In a wet season U there much necessity for the problem d be considered seriously from the standpoint of traffic and lcal transpor tation. The, Bubjecta of the advantage f wide tires, of the natural curves which the roads ought to take In order to facilitate the hauling of heavy loads and of a long even pull over compara tively level ground. In preference to abort steep ascents In a straight direc tion toward the g3al, are very little con sidered or thought of apparently by the farmers, the very class of peop!e who should be most deeply Interested In such questions. Even on these pralrts a slight Im petus was given to the good road move ment by the adoption of the bicycle. The tise of the bicycle has somewhat aUed out as a recreation amors people f wealth, culture and education, and as a consequeEce the use of It has ceas ed to be so much of a factor tn the cre ation or preservation of good roads. The automobile ban been more than a substitute as an Incentive to Interest i: the subject of gvo.l r.istds everywhere among that class of people wh r.v known as hustlers' and who make tilings "get along some" when tto. want to obtain any desired object. The probability Is that a dozen automobile enthusiast: In any comniun'.ty will Co snore in accomplishing the creation and preservation of highways presenting a emooth. ronnd. hard surface and fev difficult grades at all seasons of tV year than TOO farmers, although the latter should be more strictly Interest ed In the same prob'ern. But the farm ers seem to liok organization nn-i .1"-1 BAD liOXVS KEiP THB FAKliEK 1'oCIi. Low to go ntxiut it to obtain the objects i desired, or else they really have not j considered the subject enough to get j enthusiastic over it. In uther words. I think the diffusion of the automobile j throughout the country ii gjing to be the principal factor in the furtherance ; of the movement In favor of good high-, ways. ; Of course a campaign among the farmers ought never to be neglected. They use the roads more tjan any oth er class of people, and good roads are more vital problems with them tliua with any other class. Those interested in the subject of good roads, theref jre, ought never to neglect an opportunity to luii'.rr.er away at the mass of tlie people on the subject and convince them by every po.:s,ble means that the problem of good highways for pe-.Ie -triaus, horsemen, bicycles and aut mobiles is one of the most essential fac tors in the upbuilding of the wealth and property of the country. I think Instruction on the subject ought to be given in public schools, and especially In the country schiuh, so that every boy might understand how Important. In a commercial way, this subject is and how to go about it to Improve the local condition of the roads in his im mediate neighborhood. j The demonstration by machines, etc.. of the making of good roads by special j trains going through the country and j stopping here and there In different lo calities Is, of course, an excellent prop osition, but it would take a century if tills were the only means to accomplish anything In the way of results. The country is too vast The agricultural department puts out a large quantity of literature on that subject which is accessible to any one baring Interest In It and who will send for It, but very few of the class of peo ple whom It Is desired to reach know about It or will take the trouble to send to the department for literature. In struction upon the subject ought to be forced upon them through the columns J of the farmer's paper, periodicals and popular magazines which are every where reaching tho homes of t! west ern farmer at this time. No political speech, Fourth of July oration. Memo rial day address or Thanksgiving ser mon ought to be considered or allowed to be delivered unless It contained a good rousing paragraph or two on the right side of the good roads movement Maintenance of Gravel Roads. ' In order to maintain a gravel road In good condition It la wen to beep piles of gravel alongside at frequent Inter vals, so that the persons Who repair the road can get the material without going too far for it As soon as ruts or holes appear on the surface some of this good fresh material should be add d ftod stamped Into poaltloa or kept ruM smooth rati) property consolidated. SILAGE FOR. BEEF CATTLE irofrssor Foule of the Virginia fi pcrtmcut station recently ina the fol lowing report of a cattle feeding tost; During last winter nu Interesting ex periment with sixty head of beef cattle Mas conducted at the experiment sta tiou. The twenty cattlo fed slia. made nti average gain of 1.40 pound per head per day. the twenty cattle fed timothy hay 1.10 pound per head per day and the twenty cattle fed shredded com atover, A7 iiouiifl per head iht O.ay. There was thus a difference of oue thinl to one-half pound of gain per head per day In favor of the silage fed cattle. The silage fed cattle finished off the best and showed more quality thau the others nud lu any discriminating market would have brought a consider ably higher price. The strong prejudice against using silage for the winter feeding of beef cattle Is hard to understand, for It has bceu fully demonstrated that silage fed cattle will kill out quite as well as the dry fed cattle, and the meat Is, general ly speakiug. of a superior quality. Whereas the silage was all eaten up. 13.3 of the stover and 4.1G per cent of the Lay were wasted. The gains show that the cattle fed were not of a satisfactory quality. In previous experiments a pound of grain has been made for a consumption of three to four pounds of grain. The silage fed cattle in this test consumed C.54 pounds of grain for a pound of gain, the stover fed cattle 11.18 pounds, or about twice as much, and the hay fed cattle S.tX) pounds, or 2.45 pounds more per day than the silage fed cattle. With l etter bred animals fed In pre vious experiments, the average gain per head lias often been 2.18 pounds throughout the six r.i.Mi'hs" feeding pe riod, which again testifies to the un satisfactory quality of the animals fed In this tet. Impress of the Shorthorn. , Our cattle today would have been Im mensely more uniform, fully as valua ble and probably more useful as a whole if none except Shorthorns bad ever been Imported as Improvers. bilOUIHOBX cow. writes R. D. Koss in Breeder's Ga zette. The fact that with the excep tion of a very few herds the American Shorthorn has been bred for beef for a century, and by beef men, and at this day does persist in putting out cows with some value for milk indicates a milky way in the Shorthorn firmament somewhere. Commenting on the above, the editor of the Gazette says, "The excellence claimed lor our so called 'natives' of the present day is generally to be cred ited to a dash of the blood of some im proved breed, usually the Shorthorn, which has been the pioneer cosmopol itan improver of bovine stocks." Fat Draft Horses. Large, heavy draft horses bring more money than lighter ones. For this rea son a great many dealers and handlers of drafters try to get them as fat us possible before ofleriug them for sale. Lfi.scrimiuatiug purchasers, however, are very quick to notice the difference between fat and muscle. A corn fed, closely stabled draft Lorse is in very much the same coudi- ; tiou as a fat ox and is of little more service for hard work. In buying such a horse the new owner has a Job on j his hands to work the fat off and de- i velop muscle enough to make a valu able worker. With proper feed and a reasonable amount of exercise it Is Just as easy and just about as cheap to cover a horse's bones with good healthy mus cle as it Is to stable him, feed him corn and get him hog fat. The muscular horse gives satisfaction and helps sell the next one. Farmers Advocate. Nam of O. I. C. Swine. The O. I. C. hogs are simply what their name (Ohio Improved Cheaters) implies. They constitute one of the numerous pure bred strains of Chester Whites which are recorded In the Ohio Improved Chester White Record asso ciation. It is from the Initials of this title that the name O. I. C. Is derived. There have been no less than five rec ord associations founded for the re cording and protection of this breed. Including the one above mentioned, the others being the American, the Na tional, the International and the Stand ard. Michigan Farmer. Growing Wool.

Governor Elect Guild of Massachu setts, who served In the Spanish war, tells a story of a New York regiment, many of whose members were recruit ed on the east side. They were spoil lug for a fight, and It became necessary to post a sentry to preserve order. A big, husky Howry recruit of pugil istic propensities was put on guard outside and given special orders to see that quiet reigued and, above all things. If trouble came his way, not to lose possession of his rifle. Soon a general row began, growing in proportions as the minutes passed. The soldier walked his post nervously, with out Interrupting, until tho corporal of the guard appeared on the scene with re-enforcements. "Why didn't you stop this row?" shouted the corporal. The sentry, balancing bis rifle on his shoulder, raised his arms to the cor rect boxing position and replied: "Sure, phwat could I do wid this gun in me bands?" New York Tribune.

If we couldn't shoot better than the boys did we'd give up the business. We were eating dinner at the White Eagle hotel the other day when a lit tle shooting affray occurred. A guest named Tooley, who Is from Denver, found a shirt button In bis soup and raised such a row about It that mine host could do nothing less than shoot him through the shoulder. It was, as everybody agreed, a small matter to raise a row over.
