(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) If nil the automobiles In this country stood evenly distributed over nil the rouds of this country there would be five motorcars to every two miles j of rond. And there are 2,547,334 tulles of public road. If every motorcar In the United States were loaded to Its limit with people, half the population of the United Stntes could be hauled at one load. And there are about 110,000,000 pet/pie lu this country. (letting down to boot heels and bltullthle?just to avoid the vulgar phrase of bedrock and brass tacks?about 87 per cent of all the motor vehicles in the world are on the roads of the United States. By estimate, there were 7.000,000 automobiles In the world on January 1, 1010. By actual count, 0,110.077 of these were In the United States. Those motor vehicles puld. In license and other fees, $51,477,410. And this Is exclusive of the 107,000 motor vehicles manufactured for the government. Kach one of those six million one hundred and odd thousand motorcars, when It runs on unimproved roads, pays about twice as much for tires and about twice ns much for gasoline as when It runs on surfaced roads. And there ore about eight times as many miles of unimproved as of Improved public roads In the United States. To be specific, the public roads In the United States measure 2,457,834 miles, 0>f which only 200,21)0 miles, or about 12 per cent, are surfaced. The rest ure earth roads. Half Billion for Roads. Are the owners of those six million iin<l odd automobiles Interested In the federal aid road-building program for lblb? It is the most stupendous roadbuilding program In the history of the world. Expenditures for road construction tills year are likely to reach $500,000,000, according to the estimates of the United States department of agriculture, the government agency charged with the administration of the federal aid road act. Practically all states are planning a continuous system of connecting highways throughout each state, and there Is a more general disposition than was ever manifested before toward co-operation among LD CO-OPERATE WITH I OF BETTER HIGHWAYS II the Motor Vehicles in the World; and t Roads (Top Picture) as Hard-Surfaced of large sltles?a congestion that haa Increased during the past several years, and that, if It continues, will tend to run up the cost of living. 1 Those are a few of the main reasons 1 why, from the standpoint of self-lnter1 est, the city automobile owner should vote for road-bond Issues. I Good Roads as Military Measure. From the standpoint of duty, the military element probably takes first place. When It became necessary two ' years ago to concentrate great numbers of men In cantonments. It wus found that the roadways connecting the cantonments with the surrounding cities were in no sense ndequute. For the most part new roads had to be constructed. There Is always the possibility of another such emergency, and the only means of Insuring facile communication Is by the construction of surfaced roads over which motorI t ri1/> Iro on > ? A - u uvnfl vuu UJIfiUUf. While the security of the nntlon In such mi emergency might depend upon good roads for military uses, their service to the nuthm would not be confined to military matters. For a great portion of the time during the past two years DO per cent of the railroad capacity of the country was required for military purposes. The transportation of food, fuel and the like had to be accomplished largely by means other than rail. Some hardships were entuilcd. The motortruck, however, over such roads as were passable, rendered excellent service. When the present road-building program Is carried out uud the total of Improved rouds is several times larger than at present, the service possibilities of the motortruck will be correspondingly Increased and the safety of the nntlon and the comfort of the people more fully Insured. WAYS TO CONTROL HOG LICE Complete Eradication Is Best Secured by Use of DiDDino Vats?Sam* Other Methods. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) ?? I.Iee on hogs can be controlled In various ways, but complete eradication is best secured by the use of dipping vats, experiments conducted by the United States department of agriculture show. Medicated bog wallows and rubbing posts, the experiments showed, kept the number of parnsites reduced so thnt they cnused little or no damage, but neither of these methods destroyed all the lice. Crude petroleum was used on the rubbing posts and the wallows were medicated with coul-tnr creosote dips, pine tar, crude petrole.um, and bland oils. Crude petroleum and coal-tar creosote dips proved to be more effective when applied from an ordinary sprinkling can than when used In wallows or on rubbing posts. Start a fight against the weeds early In the season. * * A young weed Is easier to overcome than an old, tough one. Sweet clover must be regarded Inrgely as a substitute for red clover. Sweet clover Is best cut for hny j enrly in June, before any buds ap, pear. * * Sweet corn and pens are products tbnt should be gro.vn for canning and drying. * * Tomatoes are of high food value because they can be canned and preserved so readily. Pumpkins and squashes can bo grown with so little effort that they may be considered in the calculations. t ? * Beans may be considered the best of the garden products from a food standpoint. These should be planted early and late. Do your transplanting after a rain rather than before It. The soil works much easier when moist and the plants will grow better and quicker. Peas Improve the land the same a8 clover and other legumes. If the straw Is secured In good* shape.

Congress, shortly before adjournment, made an extra appropriation of $209,000,000 In the post office appropriation hill to meet the federal part of the progrum. Officials of the bureau of public roads, United Stutes department of agriculture, point out that this Is the lurgest appropriation ever made by any government for a similar purpose, and that it will enable the federal and state governments to carry on a road-building program of a magnitude never approached In the history of the world. This work. It Is estimated, will employ more than 100,000 men in active road work. In addition to the men engaged In the production and furnishing of roud-huilding materials. It affords one of the large opportunities for profitable employment for returned soldiers and sailors. Automobile Owners and Road Bonds. .. The program Is a continuing one. The recent federal appropriation Is for three years. State, county and local funds will come largely from bond issues. Ami there is where the 0,000,. 00 automobile owners ought to shine with a tremendous null a nee. Until sensible selfishness and plain duty call upon the automobile owner lo vote for road bonds. Ills tire nnd fuel costs, as before mentioned, are cut In half by good-roads. More important still, if he be a city man, as a very large proportion of automobile owners are, It brings what he eats to his door at less cost. Good roads have always meant something In the way of reducing living costs, but they mean more now that the motortruck hus come to stay?and to expand. One function of the motortruck is to relieve congestion In the neighborhood Pasturing Sweet Clover. In pasturing sweet clover, it Is Important to pasture It very heavily during May and June the second year. Drain Garden Land. Garden land Inclined to be wet should be drained thoroughly before crops are planted upon It. Damage by Rodents. Field mice and rata are very common. ttftd are capable of doing considerable datnugc.
