1 GOOD ROADS NOTES, s
IbCOJiojnJeal Itoad Improvement*
A tribute roads, to the superior cheapness made
of good by even When of
dirt, was paid Captain BroVne,
one of the delegates to the Virginia
Good Roads convention in 1894. In
the course of some remarks Captain
Browne said:
’’‘The question of good roads comes
home to me with great force, for 1
have in Northampton County good
dirt roads to haul over, and in another
county bad dirt roads. I put four
carts, each one with a mule to it, on
the scales, aud the loads which wore
hauled over the Northampton roads
averaged 246(1 pounds; in the other
county, 800 pounds is the In universal
load in delivering produce. load North¬
ampton the tax for purposes is ten
cents on the §100, And in the other
county, where the roads are bad, it is
twenty cents on $100 worth of prop¬
erty. This difference is owing to the
adoption of improved methods, which
reduce cost and give much advan¬
tage.”
Captain .Browne's description of the
road equipment in Northampton may
be of interest to Kentucky farmers
who are struggling with dirt roads.
The county, he said, owned one road
grader, plows, carts, hand implements,
six mules, one superintendent for the
ivhole county, who enrployed five la¬
borers aud had a tent in which all
could shelter. The superintendent
was directed to begin the worst roads
first and to work in all parts of the
county. He began April 16 and by
September 30 bad made seventeen
and one-half miles of good road,
though the force had been idle
twenty per cent, of the time owing to
the lack of teams. The highway
made cost only $55.17 a mile, but this
could be reduced half by the purchase
of four more mules. The monthly
expense was $175.75; the extra mules
would add $49 a month, but then
thirty-five miles could be made in a
year. The whole outfit had cost $1,
011.24. The farmers had been very
much pleased with the results and
would not now adojit a different plan.
In time Captain Browne hoped they
would get to macadamized roads.
It seems hardly worth while to be¬
gin a campaign for better dirt roads
when macadamized ones could be se¬
cured with a little more effort. Still
every upward step counts. Communi¬
ties which can not undertake exten¬
sive improvements might combine this
plan of working dirt roads with the
one adopted by Augusta County, Vir¬
ginia. This; county was not in debt,
and the people there, as in a great
many counties in Kentucky, were op¬
posed to any issue Of bonds. Tho
Board of Supervisors hit upon a.con¬
tractor who agreed to build the road
and take a certain sum every year. It
took nearly a year to build the road,
and he received his first payment the
next year from the proceeds of a tax
levy. The third year he was paid an¬
other part and the fourth year all.
The county in the meantime had got
sixteen miles of badly needed mac¬
adam, and the farmers had then been
convinced of the benefits of macadam¬
izing and were anxious to continue the
work. Many men who had at first re¬
fused to contribute to the building of
the road then offered to come in and
contribute to an extension.—Louisville
Courier-Journal.
Touching State Aid,
“When public highways first began
to receive attention their care was dele¬
gated to those who lived along them,
presumably on the principle that they
were chiefly interested iu having pas¬
sable roads. At a later period, as
towns and cities grew up, aud travel
increased over the highways with the
development of commerce and the in¬
terchange of commodities, the wear
and tear became so great that the bur¬
den of keeping the main roads in re¬
pair was too much to be borne by the
inhabitants of the rural districts.
Macaulay alluded to this fifty years
ago when he wrote his picturesque ac¬
count of the condition of England a
hundred aud fifty years before. Even
then the inadequacy and injustice of
the plan had become apparent, and it
was gradually realized that a change
must be made. Macaulay says of this :
“One chief cause of the badness of
the roads seems to have been the de¬
fective state of the law. Every parish
was bound to repair the highways
which passed through it. The pea¬
santry was forced to give gratuitous
labor six days iu the year. If this was
not sufficient, hired labor was em¬
ployed, and the expense was met by a
parochial rate [local tax).
“That a route connecting two great
towns, which have a large and thriv
ing trade with each o.her should be
maintained at the cost of the rural
population scattered between them, ? is
obviously unjust; and this injustice
was peculiarly glaring in the case of
the great North Road which traversed
very poor and thinly inhabited dis¬
tricts, and joined very rich and popu¬
lous districts. Indeed it was not in
the power of the parishes of Hunting¬
donshire to mend a highway worn by
the constant traffic between the West
Riding of Yorkshire and London.
This might be mistaken for a refer
ence to American roads and methods
of to-day. Every year the tendency
to use the public highways for- travel
and pleasure becomes greater, while
their use for business purposes is also
steadily increasing. The roads are
becoming more and more used for
through travel, and the proportion of
those who pass over them to those who
live along them is becoming greater.
To build aud maintain suitable higli
ways is an undertaking that involves
expenses, and requires resources, such
as can only be furnished by the States,
and on them devolves responsibility
for promoting the work.—L, A. W.
Bulletin,
The Highways of New Jersey,
Thirty years ago the about State the built first
macadam roads in were
in Essex County, N. J, The work
Was gradually extended, and was
taken Up by Union iaid County, and these
two Counties many miles Of stone
roads before the system of State aid
was inaugurated; At the in the present
time, nearly every county State
is building macadam roads. The State
bears one-third of the expense, but so
many applications are now made for a
share of the annual appropriation
that the $ 100,000 appropriated will
need to be raised to three times that
amount if the contemplated roads are
to be built.
In 1891 the appropriation increased was §20,
000 ; In 1893 it was to $75,
000 , but only $ 20,000 were spent. In
1894 four counties were building roads,
and the whole appropriation was used;
in 1895 six counties were at work; in
1896 there were eight counties; in
1897 eleven counties, and now nine¬
teen out of the twenty-one counties in
the State have made application for
their shares.
There are now so many miles of
stone roads in the State that it can be
traversed in nearly all directions with¬
out leaving them, Luring the past
year the expense of building macadam
roads was considerably reduced. In
order to preserve good roads and im¬
prove bad ones, it is proposed to give
a rebate of a dollar-and-a-half iu taxes
for each wheel in habitual use on heavy
wagons whose tire is four inches or
more in breadth.
Under the law passed last year com¬
missioners have determined the value
of some of the toll roads, and if the
policy is pursued the State will soon
possess nothing but free public high¬
ways.
Economy of Broad Tires.
The Missouri Experiment Station
(Columbia) recently published an il¬
lustrated bulletin describing a series
of interesting experiments on the
draught of broad and narrow tired
wagon v,-heels. The tests were made
with each kind on macadam, gravel and
dirt roads and on farm fields in all
conditions. The experiments are sum¬
marized as follows:
Tho broad tires pulled materially
lighter on the macadam streets and the
gravel roads; also on dirt roads in all
conditions, except when soft or sloppy
on the surface, underlaid by hard
roadbed, and when the mud was very
deep and sticky. In both these con¬
ditions the narrow tires pulled con¬
siderably lighter. It should be borne
in mind, however, that the roads are
in these conditions for a comparatively
short period of time, and this at sea¬
sons when their use has naturally
been reduced to the minimum, Tho
tests on meadows, pastures, stubble
land, corn land and ploughed ground
in every condition, from dry, hard and
firm to very wet and soft, show, with¬
out a single exception, a largo saving
in draft by the use of the broad tires.
The bulk of the hauling done by the
farmer is on the farm, in hauling feed
from the fields and hauling manure
from the barns, etc. The actual ton¬
nage hauled to market is insignificant
in comparison with that hauled about
on the farm, inasmuch as a large pro¬
portion of the products of the average
farm is sent to market in the form of
live stock or its products.—Farm and
Fireside.
System in Road Maintenance.
No one has ever supposed that rail¬
road corporations spend money for the
mere sake of spending it, or adopt ex¬
pensive methods when cheaper ones
are better. It must be, then, that
there is some pretty substantial rea¬
son for dividing their roadbeds into
sections, and keeping men constantly
employed on each in caring for them.
Precisely the same principle applies
to ordinary highways; the only way
that they can be efficiently maintained
is by establishing a similar system,and
the more expensive they are to con¬
struct, the greater the saving that will
thereby be made, and increased effi¬
ciency secured.
Good Roads Build Towns.
Three years ago a little farming
settlement in New Jersey was inter¬
sected by good roads. The location
was charming and invited the erection
of summer homes. With the advent
of good highways, the residents came,
aud a prosperous village grew up—
made possible solely by the construc¬
tion of hard and durable highways.
The Pilgrims’ Church Doomed. WJM8I
Consul Listoe, of Rotterdam, re¬
ported to the State Department in
Washington' that the church from
which the Pilgrim Fathers departed
in 1620 is in danger of being sold and
torn down. It is the Herformde
Kirke (Reformed Church) at Delft
Haven. The pulpit, altar and some
I of the Bibles used by the Pilgrims are
still in the church. The church rec
ord gives an account of the departure
of the Pilgrims. The congregation is
poor, Consul Listoe says, and without
help may not be able to retain the
building. Here is an exceptionally
fine chance for some wealthy American
to distinguish himself by buying the
aucient edifice, transporting- it to this
country and erecting it near the fa¬
mous Plymouth Rock and the Pil¬
grims’ landing place.—New York
Journal.
The Kaiser Wants This Stopped.
Kaiser Wilhelm has applied through
his Ambassador to the English Censor
I of Plays to have stopped a song that
is being sung nightly in the London
music halls. The lyric which offends
His Imperial Majesty is entitled the
“Mailed Fist of Germany.” It be
gins in this fashion:
Fitzsimmons met the Kaiser,
! And they warmly hugged and kissed.
Old Fitz be had his gloves on,

be used in the place of lemon, or the
sirup may be flavored with pepper¬
mint or cinnamon. Cocoanut tally is
made by adding warm cocoanut, sliced

orange or any fruit or nuts may be
added; sometimes a tutti-frutti is
made by adding figs and different
kinds of fruit. The candy is then cut
into bars when cooling.
Aj>i,le 9 anti Asparagus;
Oregon apples have made an excel¬
lent reputation this year with the
Chicago people who are in the habit
of using the best fruit. Just at pres¬
ent the sorts most in demand for table
use are the Roman beauties, which
are as fine in quality as they are large
and beautiful in appearance. The
winesapB, which in Oregon grow much
larger than east of the Rockies and
are more handsomely colored, are also
an attractive favorite. Both sorts are
selling at $1 per peck. The lady
apples, a strictly fancy table sort,
also meet with more favor than the
eastern apples, both on account -of
quality and coloring. White asparagus
from California is arriving in better
condition than the trade has ever be¬
fore seen. It is almost as tender as
butter, and is quite palatable. Sales
are made at 20 to 30 cents per bunch.
The supply of California cauliflower
is fast becoming exhausted. It is of
fine quality and color, and sells at re¬
tail at 10 to 25 cents per head.
Cucumbers grown in northern hot¬
houses are retailing at 20 to 25 cents
each for the ordinary variety, and 30
to 40 cents for the long English seed¬
less sort. California artichokes are in
moderate request at $2 to $3 per dozen.

l’ot Cheese.
There are few more relishable coun¬
try dishes than pot cheese; but only a
minority of persons know how to make
it to perfection. The milk is allowed
to become too soar, or there is a
trifling mustiness in the flavor, or it is
too dry and chippy, or so wet that it
is soggy and unpleasant to the taste.
In its perfection it should be light,
creamy, and with just enough acid to
give it a distinct character, but not
enough to suggest sour staleness. The
milk should be used as soon as it be¬
comes curdled. If it must be accumu¬
lated, it should be kept in a very cool
place, and carefully covered. When
a sufficient quantity is on hand, mix
well and put in a warm place. Sweet
skim milk may be added to that which
is curdled, and if kept warm will soon
become thick also. Then it should be
pi ui a kettle, or suitable dish, and
S: i pan of warm water on the back
of the rang’e; place a wire rack or an
inverted pie-pan under the kettle to
keep the milk from scorching and
sticking to the bottom of the kettle.
Within a few minutes, usually, as soon
as it begins to heat, the curd aud whey
will separate. Allow the whey to be¬
come scalding hot, them remove the
dish from the fire, and when cool
enough to handle, pour the entire con
tents into a bag or cloth, and hang it
up to drain. When firm and dry
enough to handle without dripping,
work smooth with a spoon, and add a
little butter or cream, salt, and a dust
of pepper if desired, and serve with
watereresses.—New York Ledger,
Household Hints.
An excellent way to mend large
holes in stockings is to tack a piece of
net over the hole and darn through it.
This also is applicable to merino un¬
derwear.
Bits of iron will prevent water from
becoming putrid. Sheet iron or iron
trimmings are the best. The offensive
smell of water in vases of flowers
would be avoided by putting a few
small nails in the bottom of the vases.
Clothespins need washing occasion¬
ally to keep them at their best. A
good plan is to drop them in the boiler
after the clothes have been taken up,
then pour the water off, rinse the
pins and dry thoroughly before putting
away.
Clothes lines should always betaken
down after the weekly wash if possible,
rolled up and placed in a bag until
next time. If the line is a pulley or a
wire line and up to stay, wipe off care¬
fully with a damp cloth each time be¬
fore using.
Salt preserves the teeth, keeping
them white, the gums healthy, and the
breath sweet. Put some in an iron
shovel, place it over the fire, and when
quite hot pour into a thin bag. Apply
to any part affected with neuralgia or
intense pain.
A teacher of laundry work tells her
class that “if in ironing a shirt bosom
you find a little <Sft, don’t stop to
wipe it off, until ikg whole shirt is
finished. Then it wul come off easily.
The damp cloth, not wet, is your best
friend when doing fine ironing.”
One of the simplest aud most ef¬
ficient means of driving chloride away rats is
to set saucers of of lime

They do not eat the lime, but its fumes
are very disagreeable to them and
will result in their leaving the neigh¬
borhood.

“ Sportsmen ” in Bohemia.
Bohemian sportsmen in the year 1895
shot and killed fifty men, women, and

among other game, over 15,000 dogs,
8,762 cats, 2 horses, 15 cows, 132
calves, 27G goats, and 129 sheep. For
this they had to pay collectively over
$500,000 for doctors, fines, and indemni¬

Genera! Lassitude.
"We are provided with five organs shin, for keep
sng the blood pure; they are the t»i«
kidneys, tho liver, tho lung* and the
bowels. The blood becomes impure for
one or both of two reasons:
First, something impure has boon put
into it; Second, the five excretory org&na
have not been sufficiently active.
Owing to it3 complicated formation, the
blood is liable to many morbid changes.
If any of the organs just mentioned are not
in perfect working order, so that impurities
are retained, the blood becomes disordered
and. even diseased. When corrupted** its
impurities are absorbed by the tissues, caus¬
ing eruptions,fevers, lassitude and langour.
For restoring the above organs to a health¬
ful condition there is no medicine so Modi- encq*
