GALLOWAY CATTLE
ince or kingdom of Galloway in the south-west corner of Scotland. They are a black polled breed width long curly hair and a thick uadercoat of fur which is almost waterproof. They are well adap- ted to the open range, having more hair per square inch of skin (4.108) than any range animal except the buffalo. These Scottish cattle are believed to be descended from the horned black cattle which for- merly existed in. Scotland. and have a common origin with the Abcrdee Angus.

The Galloway Society was form- ed in 1878, and published its first herd book of the breed that year. The Galloway cattle are ” sized. the bulls weighing about 19- 00 lbs. and the cows from 1.200 to 1.400 pounds. They are very clan- nish and always stay in groups by themselves when other stock are on the same range.
They post scntinels to protect their calves when the herd leaves them to look for water or better grazing. In Scotland. they graze on much poorer hills and moors

occasion a cow had a calf in the field. and it was decided to bring it to the home farm. To do this they had to bring in the whole herd. as the cow would not come without the others.
The big Galloway hull was in the field when the maid brought the milk cows in one evening and began to milk. A hired man who did not like Gailoways. and was afraid of the bull. went into the same pasture to get horses. He saw the bull, that he always drove in with a pitchfork. raise his head and started toward him. Running for all he was worth to the near- est fence, he had one leg over when the chargingbull struck him behind. and sent him distance over the fence. The girl said "it served him right. as he was always prod- ding the hull with a fork." This bull never molested any woman.
This herd was sold and went to High River. Alberta. and may

Durability Of Construction
OTTAWA (CF)-1-low much pun- ishment can a road take before it cracks up and develops pot- holes?
Whnt kind of construction will hold up best under a 25,000-pound truck barrciling down a highway when the pavement -is covered with ice or is sunbaked? Or dur- ing spring thaws?
The American Association oi State Highway Officials is trying to find out at Ottawa, 111., where they are d ti--u the ” t road test ever. The answers may set standards of economical road construction for years to come. FIVE-YEAR PROJECT
The associaiv--'s counterpart in this country. the Canadian Good Roads Association. is participating in the 812,000,000 test through its observer, Gordon D. Campbell. 23- year-old highway engineer from Winnipeg. Through the support of provincial and federal govern- ments it has assigned him to work on the five-year project.
The CGRA also has set up an observer committee made up of representatives from the prov- inces and the federal government who will work with Mr. Campbell in evaluating the information gath- ered during the test. .
Mr. Campbell. a gradua of the University of Manitoba and formerly with , the Trans-Canada Highway division of the federal public works department. studied the economics of highway trans- portation at Purdue University on a CGRA scholarship.
The road tests in Illinois got under way this summer with con- struction of four loops strung out end-to-end on an eight mile stretch.
Each loop consists of two par- allel ents of two l2-foot wide lanes that include sections made of different combinations of sub- base. base and surface thick- nesses. The tangents will be Joined at each end by turn-arounds. six- teen test bridges with 50-foot spans will be built on some of the loops. USE HUGE ROADS -
Then the test roads will be sub- jected to repeated runs of trucks loaded with weights varying bo- twcen' 10,000 and 50.000 pounds. The stress of such loads on the roads will be carefully measured. Flexible and rigid concrete sec- tions will be compared for resist- ance. So will reinforced concrete

The automobile industry also is interested in the test because it will seek to determine the most economical and practical size and weight of vehicles using highways.
The governments interest, apart from road construction, comes also from the fact that the experts will try to determine an equit- able allocatlon of highway taxa- tion I 'kility ,, road users.

when a road-expert friend of mine first mentioned that. engineers were expa-lmenv ing with rubber roads I though "Oh Boy. you'll be able to bounce those pedestrians like tennis balls right over to the sidewalk." ;
No. not quite. There is a lot of rubber in a rubber road, but not that much. The advantage, according to the people who-
make the rubber and asphalt mixture. is that roads last much longer. They have nearly twice as much resistance to breaking and stand up better in extremes of hot and cold.
Engineers have been watching a stretch of rubber and asphaltgroad in Holland. German soldiers marched on it. and the Allied armies chased them back along it. The road has had hardly any work done on it in 15 years. yet is still in good condition.
Experiments have only recently started here. although the first rubber road was laid in Singapore in 109.
There are three stretches of rubber road in that I know of. one is Le lllfarchant Road in St. John's. Newfound- land. and the other two are in the Province of Quebec.
Since cars were first made. rubber. both natural and . synthetic. has made the ride smoother. On our lot we make . sure that the rubber on all our cars is in shape to give you
many, many miles of comfortable travel before you have to ,. worry about that expense. -
