FEEDING COWS IN THE DARK
"When I bought my farm two
years ago there was a herd of s'crub
cows on it," writes a Wisconsin farm-
er to a field agent of the Dairy Divi-
sion, U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture. "I joined the cow-testing asso-
ciation, and soon found that my scrub
cows were a failure, so I disposed of
them and bought some pure bred and
grade Holstein cows. The cow-test-
ing association is a guideboard on
the way to better dairying and a big
saving in feeds, as one can feed to
' much better advantage where produc-
tion is known. Trying to feed with-

Olympia, May --.With the con-
'tracts awarded by the Highway Corn- /
mittee this week,,- the State has 3,-
000,000 worth of road improvements"
under way and by • the end of the
onth will have added approximate-

The largest single job is 8V miles

Mound link of the Pacific highway

, An investigation or reconnaisance
trip from Goldendale up the Columbia
i river as far as Plymouth, opposite
Umatil]a, Oregon, will reinforce the
committee's data on this proposed ex-
tension of t ael North Bank Highway.
I The committee hopes ultimately a
better grade can be found for the
road between Goldendale and Mab-
ton that connects the North Bank and
Inland Empire Highways--though
neither of these plans can beicarried
out immediately.
The Highway Committee expects to
spend three weeks in Eastern Wash-
ington, returning through Snoqualmie
Pass, which pioneer auto parties al-
ready have traversed. The state high-
way division under Supewisor James
Allen has been clearing the Sunset
Highway through the Pass by a

What Henry Ford Says About
Machine Power Farming
"In the tractor the farmer now has a machine in which is
harnessed one of the most adaptable, efficient, economical
sources of power in the world--the internal combustion engine."
"The tractor will multiply the productive capacity of each
individual farm worker from three to four times over.
'qt will put the farmer on a par with the city manufactur-
er. It will put his produce-preducing factory--for that is what
a farm is--on to an efficient production basis.
"It will enable each worker to earn so much more that he
can be paid more and still leave a greater profit for the man
who hires him. It will enabl,e the farmer to work fewer hours
in the day, giving him more time to enjoy life.
"I believe the tractor will make farming what it ought to
be--the most pleasant, the most healthful, the most profitable
business on earth."
