MAKE 1T AN ISSUE.
The Bad Roads Question in Township and
County Politics.

The Bad Roads Question in Township and
County Politics.
Discussing the bad roads question in
the light of local campaign issue, the
Los Angeles (Cal.) Times makes the
pertinent question::
"By way of starter in this matter,
how would it do this fall to make can
didates for supervisors take a cast-iron
pledge to favor comprehensive system
Of road improvement that will put an
end to the present eXtravagant method
of tinkering roads, and give us the be-
ginning of first-class system of pub
lie highways? Our present method, or
rather lack of method of constructing
roads is eXtravagant and ridiculous, and
would have excited the derision of those
early road builders 1000 years or more
ago, whose work still remains in good
preservation on the continent of Eu-
rope. The American idea of ii country
road appears to be to level off the soil,
and wherever there is a hole filling it
with loose dirt-and then filling it
again. 1t needs as much science to con-
struct first-class road that will last as
it does to put up building, yet it is
t&Een for granted that the first man you
meet on the street can build road.
Consequently it is no wonder that the
roads of this country cost every five
years almost as much as the courthouse,
and then we have nothing to show for
it."

HOW TO REMOVE STAINS.
or Value to Mothers, and Should BE Read
by WheeIwomen.

by WheeIwomen.
Here is list which every mother of
active, dirt-acquiring children should
paste in the lid of her trunk before she
starts on her summer travels. 1t will
be valuable also to sentimental young
womenwh spoil their pretty frocks sit
ting on the grass OF leaning pictur-
esquely against greasy wagon wheels:
To remove fruit and vegetable stains
from white cotton and linen wash in
weak chlorine water and then in clear
water, or hold the stained portion,
dampened, over sulphur fumes and then
rinse in clear water.
To remove spots caused by acids from
white cotton or linen wash the goods
in water and ammonia, the proportion
being table spoonful to quart of
water. Wooden or colored goods should
have the stains rubbed with diluted am
monia water and then with clear water.
Grass stains in white cotton or linen
yield to washing with alcohol. Similar
stains in colored goods should be treat
ed first with weak solution of stannic
chloride and then with clear water.
Pitch and tar stains will disappear
ftom white washable fabrics if treated
in this manner.
AIoisten the spots with spirits Of tur-
pentine, rub well, put a sheet of blot
ting paper over it, press with hot iron,
and wash with warm water and soap.
To clean colored fabrics dampen the
spot, rub fresh butter on it, then a
strong lather of soap. Wash this out
with spirits of turpentine and then
with hot water.-Chicago Tribune.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS
Always strain the milk as soon as
10 drawn

Always strain the milk as soon as II
is drawn.
Churning at too high temperature,
or too long, will produce greasy butter,
in which the grain is injured.
1t is the attention paid to seemingly
insignificant things in dairying that
make or mar the profits.
Large cows need more feed than
smaller ones. and cow in the flush of
milk needs more than when dry.
If you fear notifies in butter never
ship it until it has been tested. Work
out the strealks if any are in it.
1t is essential in dairying that the
food of the cows be uniform, and the
supply should be arranged to have Il
so.-Rural World.

Hints ON the Propagation of Strawberries
and Black Raspberries.
1t is not always best to invest too
much money in new things. Nowadays,
hundreds of new varieties of fruits are
being propagated and introduced
Through the catalogues, describing the
characteristics and good qualities of
each in such q way that would excite
ones curiosity and tempt them to in
vest. No doubt, though, some of the
newer varieties are better than the old
ones. But if you desire to try some
thing new, don't ''go in too steep;" buy
just few and try them, and if they
prove satisfactory, you can make more
of the same by propagating them your
self, just the same as the nurserymen.
II is possible to produce 500 to 1000
strawberry plants from one healthy

Drafting Hair.

A dextrous French feat is that of
grating hair along the foreheads of
women with whom nature has been
cruel in arranging for the hair to grow
too far back on the forehead or when
the hair springs in an ugly, irregular
line. From other parts of the head new
sprouting hairs are delicately extracted
and replanted along the top of an un-
comely forehead.
