THE "SUN" ON ROADS.

The New York sun editorially COM
ments on Mr.. Motifs scheme for nation
al roads improvement. The Sun seems
quite positive that Mr.. Motifs plan is
unconstitutional, but il commends the
idea ofimproved roads, slaps the wheel
men on the back and urges them to eff
fort. The Suns comment is neither
so intelligent nor so comprehensive as
its editorial matter usually is. 1t
should have given us some new light,
and should have made the strongest
kind Of an appeal for improved roads.
Still, it is TO be credited for what it
has done.
"THE wnEELMEN AND THE ROADS.

Infection from Old Books.

A good deal of discussion having
taken place in England on the subject
of the spread of infectious diseases
by means Of the books in circulating
libraries, the Dresden municipal au-
thorities have had thorough expert
mental Investigation OF this question
conducted. A number much-used
volumes from the town library were
saken for the purpose. The dust from
the leaves aud covers was sown in
nutrient media and cultures reared,
the result being that no microbes be-
longing TO infectious diseases were
found the dust being, in fact, nothing
but ordinary dust of Il harm less char
acter. Again, the dirtiost leaves in
the books were rubbed first with
the dry finger and then with the wet
finger In the first case scarcely any
microbes were found on the finger; in
the second case plenty were found, but
all appeared to be Of Il non-infectious
character. Especially Is il noted that
there were no tubGr1le bacilli. Lastly
books were soaked for two days in
spirit containing ten per cent of car
bolic acid. This treatment destroyed
all the bacilli, and proved harmless to
the volumes. The conclusion arrived
at was that the danger Of circulating
libraries spreading infection is very
slight, but recommendation is given
to dust books well before reading them,
and never to wet the finger in the
mouth for the purpose of turning over
the leaves. Y. Post.

There was II general yes at u

ton: "Will milking tubes injure cows

-Ithas been demonstrated that whilo

There is n consensus of opinion
among good farmers that meadow land
should not be grazed. A little feeding
on it in the fall may not do serious
harm, but it is more likely to keep free
from injurious weeds and yield better
crops if not grazed at ALL
Concentrated fertilizers, when
used on young and tender plants,
should be scattered between the rows,
and not around the plants, as damage
often results from IN overdose Of the
fertilizer. Young strawberry plants
are easily killed II strong fertilizers be
applied directly on them after they ere
