The country town that has poor roads radiating from It id badly handicapped. Just us the-farmer is who has to haul his products over such roads. Most towns recognise this and try to get their shnre of trade by mnking the malh thoroughfares navigable at all times with tolerable loads. The town that does not see the importance of good roads and the imperative need of making them passable to ordinary truffle has need of the jolt that is not generally long deluyed. We sometimes hear the expression, "a poor trading pluce," and Instantly we know the meaning of it. We at once know It refers to a town that has fallen into a ltlp Van Winkle sleep and we are sufe In assuming that such a town lucks wideawake merchants and the other necessary adjunct?good roads. When a farmer sells unythlng, whether It be his weekly batch of produce or u load of hogs or one of wheat or corn he naturally considers the difficulties of the haul. Other things being equals he chooses the road with least hills; and If the road of least resistance has well graded and dragged highways, the town that Is hundlcapped with steep pulls and poorly graded highways always Is a loser. It cannot be otherwise. A cornbelt town exists, primarily, by reason of the farm trade. When this reaches a volume that lines the streets with farm teams any good day except the busiest times of the year, we can be reasonably certain that the merchants and roads nre both attractive. And the opposite can be Inferred when the streets are bare of farm j teams and enrs. Most towns recognize the value of ' good roads as trade getters. Some- | times the topography of the country makes good roads and gentle grades difficult. When this Is the case, more money Is expended to get results. And | r 1 Roads Like This Are Carefully Avoided by Farmer Who Is Hauling . Heavy Load. the corn belt farmer 4s Just as discriminating now that the automobile ! Is common on the farm. In fact he is more so. The matter of a few miles j extra travel Is not of great moment. As the enr comes to he more and ' more the medium of that dally commerce between the farm and town, the Importance of good roads conies to he j more clearly seen. The town has rec- | agnized It. In order to hold this In- j creasing hut vital trade the town must j bid In terms of fair bargains atnl good j ronds?and not least In smooth, allur- j Ing highways where few obstructions j to a fair speed are encountered. Where the fanner buys* his dally or weekly supplies he generally buys his | larger Items of machinery and farm equipment. It Is up to the town that ! desires to live to recognize the prob- I lein of the good road. To ignore it is j to daatro.v the town. The farmer does j not travel the had road except under j compulsion. BUILDERS FAVOR NEW ROADS Largest and Most Stupendous Plan for Highway Improvement Ever Projected In World. The building of a system of highways In this country, now being carried on nt an annual cost of over $1,000.000,000, is the largest and most Stupendous plan for public Improvement ever projected In the history of the world, declared a speaker at the nnnunl meeting of the American Itoad Builders' association at the Antonio- i bile Club of America. About 75 high- I way officials and others engaged In | carrying on this great plan of highway improvement were present, com- I ing In many cases from stntes situ- j ated a thousand miles away. Brina Hiaher Rentals Good roads bring higher rental In- j conies. Some Road Materials. Some of the materinls or combinations of materials which might enter j into the construction of temporary ! roads are earth, shale, slate, chert, j gravel and rock, or sand mixed with ; day or gumbo. For heavy traffic on j through routes pavements may be required. hut these are not ordinarily classed as "country roads." What Farmer Needs Most. Farm-to-mnrket roads, rather than pleasure highways, are what the farm- [ er needs most. . Barnyard In Wet Season.

FIGHTING PEACH TREE PEST Para-Dichlorobenrene Treatment Affords Means of Ridding Orchards of Harmful Borer. The results of what Is known as the pura-dlchlorohcim'tie treatment for the eradication of the peach-tree horer lead experts of the United States I>epnrtment of Agriculture to believe that a practical means has finally been found of ridd'itig orchards of this dls astrously destructive pest. Previously the only effe?rtlve method of fighting he borer was by removing the soil around the base of the tree and digging the grubs-out of their galleries with a knife. It Is estimated that tlie borer had dene $0,000,000 damage a year and that $'2,000,000 a year has been spent in fighting them. The para-dlchlorobenzene method was tlrst used extensively by orchnrdlsts in 1919. It consists In sprinkling fine crystals of Insecticide on the soil around the base of the Infected tree and covering with earth to hold the gas. The substance Is highly volatile and forms a gns when the soil Is between 75 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. This gas Is five times heavier than air and sinks down through the soil. It is highly effective against the borer; and a pound of the Insecticide, costing not more than "25 cents, Is sufficient for eight to ten trees. The labor 1? scarcely one-third of that formerly required. The saving therefore1 Is great. In 19*20 the parn-dlchlorobenzenef process was used extensively in the Georgia peach belt, some localities buying as high as 50.000 pounds and large Individual growers as high as two tons each. Growers declare that It Is one of tlfco greatest accomplishments In the history of the department. mmpnrnhlw to the self-boiled lime-sulphur treatment for control of brown rot and scab of the peach. SIZES OF FRUIT CONTAINERS Efforts Being Ma<|h to Fix Standards P*aHil\/ nietinmiUhahl* hu the Average Buyer. The bureau of uthrkets of the United States Department of Agriculture, in Its efforts to bring about standardization of shipping containers for fruits and vegetables, Is recommending standard types for three of the most common types of packages. These are the hamper, the round stave basket. and the market basket. These recommendations provide not only standard sizes but standard dimensions, and It is the Intention of the department to tlx standards which will be readily distinguishable from each other by the average buyer. There are at present a great many containers of different sizes which are so nearly the same in appearance that they are a never-ending source of fraud. By n slight modification In construction It is possible to make a UK-quart hamper which looks so nearly like a full bushel hamper as to deceive the purchaser, who is defrauded out of half a peck.
