U. S. 25 south of Roundstone has h£d a priming coat of oil known to the contractor as RT 2. The oiling contract as well as the placing "of the final coats of. asphalt was warded to the Middle West Road Construc-tion Company of Nobltsville, Indiana. At present the road is first cleared of all fine rock and dust by means of a sweep-er. After the sweeping is com-pleted the oil crew spreads the special oil primer. About 25,000 gallons of this preparation was necessary to complete the prim-ing. The asphalt will be laid in two thickneises, each one be-ing an inch and a half in thick-

or a total of three inches which will complete the road. Approximately 800 tons of the asphalt Vill be laid per day if the weather permits. Thfe mix-ing pl%nt has already been set up at the Kentucky Stone quarry here. The stone will be mixed at the plant and then hauled by truck to the machin-ery that puts down the asphalt. Mr. E. A. Hathaway is the President of the Company. He stated that they expect to com-plete the surfacing by the mid-dle of October provided the weather permits.

County Agents Notes Poultry Pointers For Sept. Management of the poultry

flock should center on maxi-iriunt -ggg production - for the fall and winter months. A few suggestions- a^e offered. .

The poultry house should be put in good order for the pull-ets. This means a thorough cleaning treatment of roost poles and the area near the foosting quarters with a mite destroyer such as used oil and kerosene. Start a new deep lit-ter of some sort, use the finer kind such as planer shavings, ground corn cobs or the like. The main thing is to use lots of it so that the house does not need to be cleaned so often.

The pullets should be housed soon. Many of the early pullets are already in the Jaying house and many of the flock owners are keeping them !h the house all the time. Whether you practice total or partial con-finement, it is a good idea to keep the pullets up for a while until they become used to the new quarters. . „..
