In Favor of State Taxation For Roads
The roads which the travelled
American admires in Europe are
none of them built by the farmer,
but by the general government.
Until the imperial exchequer took
the matter in hand Is years ago the
roads in England were as bad as
they are in this country, if not
worse. The great highways which
cross France in all directions are
built and maintained by the central
government. Each department
maintains another system, which
plays the same part in its commun-
ication which the national highways
do for France, and the farmers Of
the village or rural commune are
not asked TO do more than build
and keep in order few crossroads
which tap the great highways and
roads paid for by the taxes which
the national exchcquer and the de-
psrtment exchequer levies on the
nation in its cities.
The same thing is true in Ger
many, Spain and Italy. Nowhere
the world over has there been a
population Of farmers equal to the
task Of building and repairing their
own highways. 1t is no more likely
to be true Of the American farmer
than Of any other tillcr Of the soil
doomed to hard work and small re-
turns. In the crusade for good
roads the one most important prob.
lem is to find money for roads by
taxing the general community. In
England the wheel Of every plea
sure vehicle in Hyde park pays q
tax, whose proceeds, reaching IN all
nearly $4,000, 900 annually, keep
in order the country roads that pass
every farm in the kingdom, the far
mer's wagon being itself free from
any tax. Unless the state take up
the construction Of roads and pay
their cost out Of the results Of state
taxation the present agitation will
end as others have ended before, in
leaving the roads as they are. Phil

Wheat Turning to Cheat.

According to Prof. Massey, the only
way to kill out the cheat superstition is
to educate the children in the proper
and accurate observance of plant de-
velopment and a knowledge of the laws
which govern it. 1t is of no sort of
use to discuss the matter with those
who have had this old superstition hand
ed down TO them from their fathers, and
ii will only die out as men are edu-
Gated by the handling and investigation
of nature instead of by an exclusive
study of books. 1t is astonishing to
student of nature how little men really
see and how much they ina CINE they
see. The great trouble about the cheat
question is that few. even among farm
ers. have ever studied grasses close
enough to recognize them until they
make their flower heads, and many
man has watched all spring a patch of
what he thinks is wheat and never dis
covered that it was cheat until il headed
out, and then he remembers that calf
or a goose grazed on that spot and at
once jumps to the conclusion that the
wheat had changed TO cheat, when it
was cheat all the time No one has ever
yet grown a head of cheat on a wheat
plant, nor a head of wheat on a cheat
plant. Nature makes no mistakes. II

than wheat is, and its seeds will remain
in the ground for a long time. until some
fresh blowing puts them within reach of

horticultural Notes.

The County Gentleman" contains the
following good points:
Apply liquid manure to force rapid and
full maturity Of choice crops.
Use hardwood ashes literally on all
garden truck, small fruits and orchard
trees.
Stir the soil to conserve moisture and
promote plant growth, we'll as to kill
weeds.
Let the sheep and poultry run in the
orchard and consume wormy fruit and
insects.
We must spray Paris green and cop
per compounds, to produce sound mar
ketable fruits
Be sure and commence early to thin
fruit upon trees and vines that have set
the same too freely.
Where fruit is thinned the parent plant
is exhausted far less than when the
entire crop is permitted to remain.
Sort all fruit very carefully and send
same to market neatly packed in at
tractive packages. This point must not
be sighted.
Live off the best your land produces.
Do not stint yourself for sake of hav-
ing more produce to sell. Get all you
can out of life.
Set out young fruit plants and trees
every year. Do your share toward max
with fruitfulness.
good mulch keeps down weeds and
renders the soil loose, moist and porous
at all times, and that, too, with little
labor Of cultivation.
In making sales, get as near the con-
sumner as possible. Many commission
and middlemen's profits leave little for
the producer to receive for his products.
Remember that oftentimes by the re-
moval Of fully half the fruit the re-
mainder produces as much bulk and sells
for more money than the whole would
if all had been left on.
Nitrate of soda can be used with bene-
fit on all crops. 1t is Immediately avail
able. and should therefore be only en-
ployed in connection with plants in an
active stage Of growth.
There is far too little mulching done.
Small fruits, trees and garden crops are
given a most favorable opportunity for
attaining the highest perfection and de-
| velopment when their roots are covered
with a thick mat of leaves, hay or other
suitable material

COAST SURVEY CHANGES.
1t Is Said Secretary Carlisle VIII
Chop OF Some Heads.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-The Post
says: IA radical reorganization Of the
coast survey is contemplated by Secre-
tary Carlisle. Some of the changes may
require congressional action. The work
Of reform will begin by the usual method
of chopping off heads in order that the
administration may have men of its own
selection to assist in carrying out the
reorganization. 1t has been patent, IT is
said, to the treasury department secre-
taries for many years that there should
be business head as well as z scientific
one to the coast survey.
Experience il is declared, has shown
that the scientific mind is not fond Of
the hum-drum details OF business and
when forced to give attention TO dollars
and cents, the result is not satisfactory.
Prof. Mendenhall. it is reported. will be
retained in his purely scientific capacity
and some one placed in charge of all
financial and executive matters. This
officer will make all purchases, attend TO
the assignment of field parties, and, in
general, see to the carrying out of plans.
The coast survey has so outgrown its
original scope and objects that a division
of the work is now considered abso-
lutely essential Mr. Carlisle's atten-
ton has been attracted TO the matter
by the accounting officers, who expert
ence difficulty in reconciling the oper-
alton of the scientific head of the office
with the requirements of the treasury
methods. The notifications deemed
necessary will be inaugurated at an
early day, though it is realized that
congressional action will be necessary
before the complete reorganization de-
sired can be accomplished"

A FINE ART.
How to Make Nicely Meat and other
Sandwiches.


For meat and other sandwiches, cut
slices of bread about one-eighth of an
inch thich: then, with a sharp knife, cut
off all the crust. leaving trim, straight
edges: butter each slice and cut across
the center. or with two more sharp
cuts, shape each piece into the form Of
a triangle. making the three sides as
nearly even as possible, and fold care
fully together. Once having learned
the right quality Of bread to use, how
to cut evenly, butter smoothly and fold
exactly, the sandwich may be varied
indefinitely. Slice ham or tongue to al
most paper thinness, and lay between
buttered bread. Roast beef ham and
chicken should be chopped fine and sea-
soned before spreading, and delicious
variety is made by using thin slices of
hamburg loaf.
In making cheese sandwiches or sand
witches of smoked fish or SardineS, use
If possibly, bread made from some form
of the entire wheat fine brown flour.
This viii cut smoothly without crumbs.
Spread with sauce Tartar and then with
the cheese or fish.
To make egg sandwiches, bou fresh
eggs Ave minutes, plunge them into
cold water and leave until cold; this
Will prevent any discOloration of the
XOlkS, WHICH SbllltlllllcS udl htll IL lNAl
to cool otherwise. To chop the eggs
use a knife and plate, season with salt,
pepper and little mustard and spread
on the buttered bread.
For nasturtium or lettuce sandwiches
the flowers or vegetable should be very
fresh and crisp. Spread the bread with
mayonnaise dressing instead of butter,
and add finely-torn lettuce leaves or a
stem of nasturtium, with leaves and
flower, Just before serving.
The premium sandwich" is made
as follows: Break a fresh egg in a
bowl and beat thoroughly add one and
one-half cupfuls of sweet milk, a salt
spoonful of salt and a tablespoonful OF
melted butter; beat well, and add light
" one and three-fourths cupfuls of
sifted flour mixed with one and one
half teaspoonfuls OF baking powder;
bake i'm roll-shaped gem pans. When
cool cut lengthwise with a sharp knife,
which will not crumble the crust. Spread
thinly with butter and cover with finely
chopped roast mutton slightly sailed.
The mutton must not be oVerdone, but
a trihe rare AS they are cut. lay the
two parts of each muffin next each
other. so that they may fit when put
together.-GoOd Housekeeping.

Beware of imitation

the hands of the students he ranks No
/ a man. When his class graduated
from the preparatory school Mr.. O'Hair
was selected by the faculty to appear
on the commencement program, and
this last year he was selected by his
class to write one of the plays which
met with such remarkable success in the
senior class day performance. Being
prominent in political circles he organ
lied the most successful democratic club
ever organized in the university and
stumped central Indiana and eastern
Illinois in behalf of the successful cause.
AIR. Nelson, for the past two years,
has been a student in the University of
Michigan, during which time he took in
addition to the regular law course half
of the required work in the literary de-
partment. In that university exemption
grades are given on class records, and il
is but fair and just to Mr.. Nelson TO say
thai he was never compelled to take an
examination in that far-famed institution.
He was made member of and elevated
to the highest position in the renowned
legal fraternity of Phi Delta Phi. and at
the annual banquet, held last February
at the Russell house in Detroit, he acted
as tOaSt-maSter At this banquet sat
such men as ex-Chief Justice Bigelow of
Massachusetts, the Hon. Don NJ. Dick

Arbor and others of national prominence.

race for OratOrical honors in the ora

/ class of $50; first place in the law school,
numbering over six hundred, and second

/ the grades were so close that the percent
age system of marking would have

/ prevailed he was beaten by but one

/ active interest in politics, ana last cam

Mr.. O'Hair, in defense of his person
from the angry possibilities of a drawn
and threatening knife, knocked one of
its number down.
In conclusion we submit to the reason

that in their warfare with a member of
