COUNTRY ROADS.

The Most Approved Method OF Construct
ing Highways In Prairie Countries.
The Improvement of roads has been
discussed time and again. From the
fact that well-concerted means of max
ing and repairing roads are not gen.
orally used, the condition of prairie
roads in the spring and after many
rains is simply horrible. If the best
means at command were used the clay
underlying our prairie sods may be
made into good substantial roads, upon
which team at any time of the year
could carry ton, except for few days,
perhaps, just as the frost Is leaving the
ground. The proper idea in road-mak-
ing is not too wide road-bed, but one
well and accurately graded and fully
compacted. Once the road is made and
properly drained, the expense of keep
ing the whole in repair would be com
paratively light. The first cost of
making an earth road along every
duarter-section of land need not exceed
more than fifty cents per acre of land
owned. 1t is even claimed possible at a
cost of not more than twenty cents.
Once the roads are made, the keeping
them in repair will be merely a nominal
sum per acre.
While it is true that a thoroughly
graded earth road will be fairly good
one at all times of the year, it is as true
that during the dryer seasons it is a
most excellent road if the grade has
been preserved. Ballast, where it may
be had is indispensable. When possible,
broken stone is best-gravel next; yet
the foundation is the important part,
and in all prairie roads this must be the
natural soil, or rather the subsoil which
naturally underlies the surface.
1t is not to be understood from this
that the surface soil is to be excavated
from the road. Make your grade per-
feet. of surface and subsoil, and then
Law on your ballast, if to be had, say,
eight feet wide and six inches deep. II
will spread naturally Then a little
more may be added. But, because you
have no gravel, do not neglect to make
the best earth road possible. 1t will

A DISGUISED LANDLORD.
de Is Cursed with Tenant Who Gan
Not BE Induced to Move,
New Haven Comm speelal.l


New Haven Comm Special
Leopold Putzel is shoe dealer who has
q store at No. 463 State street. He also
has tenant, who pays no rent and rules
one part of the premises so thoroughly
that Putzel has been trying to evict him
for weeks without the slightest success.
He is Tom Hayward, a short, thick-set
negro, with bad eye, and a big axe.
Hayward took a fancy to Putzel's cellar
early in the winter, and coolly took pos
session. Putzel objected mildly, but it did
no good, and the colored squatter had
things all his own way. Finally, the in
voluntary landlord went down the cellar
stairs, with number of cruel things all
ready on the tip of his tongue, but he
didn't get a chance to say any Of them,
for the negro promptly chased him up.
stairs and frightened him so badly that
his cries aroused the whole neighborhood.
Hayward, who supports himself by doing
odd jobs about the city, went to his work
as usual the next day and returned at
night, going down to his cellar after a
solemn warning to Putzel that If the
latter ever came down stairs again he
would never go up alive.
Then Putzel tried strategy. One day
the weather prophets said that a cold wave
was coming and he took Off the cellar
doors and removed the windows. The
blizzard came and the cold cellar made
Putzel's place almost uncomfortable, but the
colored man seemed to bear the freezing
weather very philosophically. He merely
told Putzel that he had made up his mind
to occupy the basement permanently,
Putzel could do what he pleased with the
rest of the house. The landlords battle
with the squatter has gone on ever since
but there is no change in the situation
Hayward is complete master of his do
main. Occasionally he stalks into neigh
boring restaurant, always carrying his
axe With him, and every few days he tells
Putzel that he likes to make mince meat
out of shoemakers. His landlord ha!
about resigned himself to his fate. HI
has made no complaints to the police, al

Protecting Their Rights.

Probably no concern in the country has
adhered more strictly to the determination
to achieve success by the liberal use Of
printers ink than has the Brown Chemical
Company of Baltimore, Nd. Starting bus
mess about five years ago, they have ex-
circulation of printed matter, more than
half of which has been paid for newspaper
advertising. All this has been done to mako
known the virtues of their celebrated Iron
Bitters.
As might be expected, very large sales
have resulted from this enormous outlay,
making it about as staple in many drug
stores as is -four at the corner grocery.
Like all good things, it has been largely
lous manufacturers who cater to just this
sort of trade, and some dealers so lacking
in principle, that because greater profit
can be made on fraudulent than on genu
inc medicines, are willing to delude the
public by pushing off Iron Tonic Bitters
and other Tonic Medicines in place of genu
inc Browns Iron Bitters. The company
finding these frauds practiced so extensive
ly and all other means inadequate, have al
last determined to try little cold law tc
put stop to them. suits for heavy dam
