HOW TO DRAIN ROADS. The Solution of the Komi Problem in the Prairie Staten. Th«* f?oo<l roads congress held at Chleaffohad an interestiui? dis»'ussion upon the practical system of road drainage, presented in a paper by J. J. W. llillingsley, editor of ihe Drainage Journal at Indianapolis. He said: Amonif those who have given the subject of road improvement careful attention there is a settled conviction that the good condition of any road depends upon a system of thorough drainage—a system which embraces not only the removal of the storm water which falls upon the surface of the road and the land adjoining but also the water which filters through the ground. The latter, if allowed to percolate into and through the subsoil underlying the road-bed, will render the travel way soft and springy, often affecting the compacted surface of the road, so as to cause it to break up, or, in other words, “the bottom drops out.” The remedy is thorough drainage. In fact the basis of all road improvement in the country is the thorough drainage of the road surface and the foundations of the road embankments. In the experiments which have been made in road drainage by laying one or two lines of tile drains along the sides and parallel with the road, the result has been so satisfactory that some persons have become enthused with this method of

It Has Proved That the flutter Cow Is Also the Cheest* Cow. An old time notion still prevails to some extent that some cows are better for cheese and some for butter. For several years, however, dairy authorities have taught that the best butter cow is also the best cheese cow. This fact has been recently proved conclusively by the dairy tests a t the Columbian exposition. The reason is that by modern methods of cheese-making there is no loss of milk-fat, it is all (but a small fraction) saved and canried into the cheese. The greater tkB proportion of fat in the milk (and then in the cheese) the less milk necessary to make a pound of cheese and the better the quality of the latter. This subject is admirably illustrated by a contribution from the Wisconsin Dairy school at Madison, sent by Prof. Henry to the joint exhibit of the agricultural colleges anil •xpedmental stations at the exposition. The dairy students took six lots of milk, each weighing three hundred pounds, and varying in the percentage of fat contained, and made a cheese from each lot. These six cheeses were exhibited side by side with striking and conclusive effect Turned on edge, they looked something like this:

1 PERFECTLY DRAINED ROAD. road improvement, and conclude that in it there is a remedy for 8.11 the defects which may be encountered. Hut we are convinced that the best improvement of our highways will combine at least three essential features, which

are:

1. A road embankment of sufficient height to be at least above overflow from extraordinary rainfall and sufficiently crowning to shed the water readily, and wide enough to accommodate the travel and not of greater width. 2. That the road shall have open ditches on each side of sufficient capacity to carry all flood water from the roadway and from the lands adjoining into the nearest water course without hindrance. The surface or open ditches should have such a perfect grade that no water will find a lodgment along the line of the road ou either side. 8. That two lines of tile drains be placed parallel with the roads, one on each side, at the base of the embankment. The underdrains should be laid at the depth of three or more feet The size •of the tile will depend on the length of the drain and the fall,but it is probable that they should not be less than four inches in diameter in any case and as much larger as the needs may require. The three essential features named embrace three systems—the removal of the surface water, speedily and effectually! the removal of the water of saturation remaining after the removal of the surface water, and the prevention of the flow of soil water under the road-bed. The underdrains should have a uniform descent or grade to some natural stream or outlet, where the water discharged will flow away freely and at no time back up in the drain. The crowning of the road ehould be sufficient to cause the water falling upon the surface of the road to flow readily through the side ditches. If it fails to flow away and remains in the ruts and depressions it will increase the amount of mud and the inconvenience of travel. Roads in such a condition should have road machines passed over them as often as necessary to make and keep the surface level. It is a mistaken idea that an underdrain laid in the middle of the road will drain the surface of the road. The travel and the action of the water falling upon the road will so effectually cover the surface that no water on the the road will And its way down to the drain thus laid. To the contrary, the horse tracks and ruts will hold water like earthen vessels until it is removed by evaporation or otherwise. Roads graveled and drained as proposed will cost from $400 to $500 a mile, but when done they will be good roads for eleven months and commendably passable the remainder of the year with a little timely repair. Where gravel and stone are not to be had at a reasonable cost we know of no improvement so satisfactory in all respects as the roads well graded and sufficiently drained. Where gravel or broken stone can be had it will be found that the thorough drainage of the road as proposed will save half the gravel or stone that would otherwise be required to make a good road. A dry foundation to build upon is the most important factor in road construction. Tile drains may be used to intercept water percolating through the earth of the higher ground adjacent and likely to interfere with the road, or springs or secret places under the roadbed may be drained out with tile so as not to interfere with the embankment. After a road has been put into good condition and thoroughly underdrained nothing need l>e done except to keep the surface of the travelway smooth and the open ditches free from any drift accumulations.

The numbers indicate the per cent, of fat in the milk used; 0 means that all the fat'had l>een extracted with the separator. In the other oases the fat was practically all secured and the cheese increased in thickness and weight accordingly. The last cheese was almost twice as thick as the first one. Rejecting the ounces, which vary with the stage of curing, cheese No. 0 weighed seventeen pounds; cheese No. 5 weighed thirty-two pounds, and the others ranged between. Before being cut and tested it was plain that the one with the most milk-fat was the best

cheese.

Milk should never be skimmed wholly or partially to make cheese. Fullcream cheese is the best and most profitable Rich cheese requires rich milk. The milk that will make the most butter will also make the most cheese and the best cheese. The best butter cow is the best cheese cow. - Farm Journal.

INDIANA STATE NEWS. Ed McGuire, a cattle thief, of Bloom- ; field, was taken to the penitentiary to ! ' serve out a five-year sentence. He had |

McPherson, who walked out of the courthouse at Indianapolis, where he was being tried for criminal assault, went straight to the house of John Haviland and robbed it of $25. A determined gang of thieves looted the town of 1,inwood, just north of Anderson, robbing the post office, railway office and two stores. The Martinsville electric light and power plant was sold at auction for $70,000 to the Central Thomson-Houston

Mr Yates, one of the victims of tho Deeters shooting affray, in which three were killed, has commenced a damage suit against Deeters for $15,000 at Butler. Deeters is a wealthy farmer, and was arranging to mortgage his farms to his sister, but the action taken by Yates nipped his plan in the bud. William T. Shaffer’s saloon at Muncie was destroyed by fire. Loss, $2,500, nearly covered by insurance.

HOW TO CLEAN COWS. A Simple Scraper Is Said to lie the Best Implement. A scraper made of common hoop iron bent in the shape represented in cut and fastened iuto a short handle is an excellent means of cleaning cows that have been permitted to lie in the manure. Much labor is saved in cleaning cows by having the floor and the gutter just right, the floor not too long aud the gutter deep, and drained into a cellar or a culvert to prevent the liquid collecting in it Some cows love to find a filthy puddle in which they may dip the switch and lash their sides with it; this will be avoided by get-
