WELLS, Cashier. entativ*e taught 18 men to vaccinate hogs. Six sets of instruments own ed by the Dothan Rotary Club were supplied to the demonstrators andi a serum-distributing point was estab lished in charge of a reliable veter inarian. More than 9,000 head of hogs were treated. In many cases it was found that sickness, other than cholera, was due to some incidental cause, such as bad peanut meal, and balinced rations were advised. The coanty agent's work resulted in 32 farmiers establishing pastures to keel) their hogs off the open range, the hm td thus pasturedl being freed of many nlois wVeeds by the rooting of the animals, and prepared for fu turie cultivation. F'orty-four farmers ini the county were interested in stumiinp removing, and about 2,000 acres of land was cleared in this move mnent. About 5 tons of dlynamite wvas bought for the p~urpose largely on the (cooperative Plan. I3ETTER TO HUILD UP CHEAP ROADS BY CONSTANT CARE It. is better to build a cheap roadl and keep it in good condlition by ade (quate maintenance than to build the most expensive highway and permit it to deteriorate for want of care, say iilicial s of the Bureau of Public Roads of the United States Department of Ag riculIturie. Alaryland, which has one of the finest systems of improvedI highwvays in the U~nitedl States, if not the best, has consistently followed this prac tiee. The originally improved roadls in alaryland were comparatively in (xp~ensive, costing only what the tax itayers werie wvillinig to pay for. The first few years the average cost was less thanr $10,000 a mile. In some caises the wvork entailed considerable gradinog andl drainage, but in others it amounted simply to resurfacing the old turnpikes, which had already been gradled andl drainedl.

Generally the roads built at that time were macadam, 12 feet wide and G inches thick. Soon the width was increased to 14 feet. Later many were widened still farther, some very suc cessfully, by adding concrete should ers on each side of the existing maca diam. This method of improving roads makes it possible for trafic to con tinue unimpeded on the road while the work is going on. The macadam roads in Maryland have given very good satisfaction, but continuous care has been largely re sponsible for their success. The roads are constantly patrolled and no hole of any size is allowed to go un repaired. Material for patching is kept at convenient points along the road for the use of the patrolman. From a relatively small investment hii admittedly low-type road it builds up: a better one from year to year always conserving the bulk of th< previous investment. -- 0-- -- Subscribe to The Times HIOME-TIANNED) HIDlES GIVE FA RM ERIS UNCElRTA IN PROF)II'l Apparently it doesn't pay the far mer to tan his own leather.
