Per haps It was fortunate that Lettle’s Industry was largely centered on gath- ering inlkiuimablc material of all de scriptions. And certainly she enjoyed It. On this particular day she had discovered u pile of cornstalks that had been discarded us no longer use ful—or even -amusing to cows. It was part of Lettle’s business to intercept the process of natural disintegration whenever possible. She believed thor- oughly that the vegetable ‘world should i>e wiped out by tire, and In her Immediate locality she was rak ing the earth fairly clean of plant life that was not thought much of by Its growers. An enthusiastic eo-worker was Fill- buster Caesar I*entield, the family pup. Am Lettle dragged a heavy company* of # cornstalks around the house, he fbMowed after, plunging at the long, rustling leaves, barking at this Imagined prey, charging with a force that severed the more brittle sections and sent them flying.

When we think of the many creeks, with beds and beds of gravel waiting to be utilized into a good road, we wonder why there are no more good gravel roads around every farm. The work can be dope entirely dur ing wet and muddy weather If neces sary', and in this way the farmer can have good roads by putting in work on it at times when he could not be doing work In the field. Of course, it could not b'e expected to build any great j length of road in one or two dura, on- | lea* the farmer ha* considerable help.
