Country Roads.

The first thing that strikes the Ameri-
:an travelling through the country in
Europe is the excellent roads. The next
feature that impresses him, if his jour
ney is in the summer, is the absence of
weeds. You may travel from one end of
Holland or Belgium, in particular, and
scarcely see a weed.
He is apt to come back disguised with
his own country in this respect Our
highways certainly are disgrace to a
great and rich nation like ours The
ruts, the mud puddles, with huge stone
at the bottom that breaks the axle of the
wagon that goes wallowing through the
mire to market or to meeting-behold,
these are things too familiar. And our
ncestors-heaven save their souls-if
they needed hill road, laid it out straight
up the backbone of the elevation, with
out thought of winding gently around
the side of it. Generally the road re-
mains to this day just as they left it.
Our farmers are well to do and very
intelligent. They ought now to take the
improvement of American roads serious
ly in hand. There are books and road
makers that will show them how to
compass the Improvement In localities
where there are stone and gravel, what
SO good as the turnpike, with its ditch
each side, its grass bordering of living
green, from which the thrifty farmer
keeps every weed cut2 If he has an eye
to the beautiful he also plants trees along
the way to gladden. the traveller. So it is
done in Europe, In regions where there
is no stone there are other well known
ways of making good roads.

Peter Collier, who is the pioneer in
the sorghum producing industry, reiter-
ates his belief that in the near future su-
gar from sorghum will be produced on
a large scale at a cost not exceeding one
cent per pound. In an experimental
trial on 1873 tons of cane, he obtained per
ton 1907 pounds of sugar and more than
Is gallons of molasses. Prof. Collier
truly says that the final triumph of SUI
gar production from sorghum is better
shown by individual successes than it's
failure is by individual failures. If it is
successful anywhere, it may be made SO
in other places where like conditions can
be secured. We know many successes
in sorghum growing for producing syr-
ups, with the proper appliances for max
ing sugar on large scale, there is no
reason to doubt that its production will
be equally successful

The present legislature is doing one
important service for the state for which
the people should feel grateful. They
are demonstrating the folly and political
madness of nominating men for the leg
islature whose only recommendation is
being devoid of original thought, or too
cowardly to express if.

Henri Chevreul, son OF the French chem
ist, who is now lO4 years old, was buried
last week. The fsther is still ignorant OF the
loss Of bis boy. When about year ago the
latter, then sixty-Dine, went 10 Paris from
Dion for medical sdVice. the elder Cheyreul
seemed To feel that he was personally Insult.
ed by the fact that his son showed such ira
gility OF constitution. The family physician
tried TO explain the matter 10 the old scien-
tist, but Chevreul was annoyed and said that
he always felt he would never be able to
raise the child.
There is an epidemic Of suicide in the
Austrian army. The latest AID most sensa-
tional was that OF Lieutenant Mangesius AZ
klausenburg. He seemed depressed, and,
leaving his comrades, went into 4 room
where a number Of rifles were kept. Taking
one Of these, he called soldier aud ordered
him 10 show il he could aim properly.
"Poirt at my left eye" said the Lieu
tenant, and the soldier, without any
idea that the gun wSs loaded, did So.
The Lieutenant gave the usual commands to
make ready. present, and lire, the soldier
Obeying each, and being horrited a. the last
10 see the gun discharged aud the Lieuten-
ant TALL dead. The correctness Of the sol
dier's aim was proven, for the ball had gone
through the left eye. The Lieutenant had
left letter to bis captain saving that the
soldier who would shoot biln would be en-.
tirely innocent.
