Good Roads Pointers.

A broad tired wagon doesn't hurt
any road.
Motor carriages require good roads
and good roads are good.
Poor drainage and narrow tires
are the chief road destroyers.
GOOD roads and bad roads, their
advantages and disadvantages"
should be much discussed subject
at farmers institutes this Winter.
In France all carriages are taxed.
Those with seats for one or two per-
sons, $40 a year(in round numbers /;
those with seats for three, SIS, and
for four, $40; while bicycles and
tricycles are taxed 50 each.
In France wagon tires are from
three to ten inches wide, usually
from four to six, depending upon
the weight of the load. In Germany
the law prescribes that wagons for
heavy loads must have a width of
tire of not less than four inches.
The roads CT Europe are the
growth of q hundred years. Napo-
leon began those in France for mil
itary purposes; those of Germany
largely grew out of the same causes,
while Italy had only to keep up the
ancient but splendid highways Of
the early Roman conquerors. In

In the Garden.

held in high esteem we have snap
beans, long blood beets and turnips.
The frst-named, of course, are to
be used when fit for the table and
not when ripe. Beets and turnips
grace the table in Autumn and Win
ter and make good companion
dish for Irish potatoes and almost
any kind of meat. Most people
think it already too late to plant or
sow the seed of these vegetables.
A little more or less than six weeks
is required after planting to yield
beans for the table and there is
plenty of time to mature, SO far,
for the Six Weeks, Early Valentine
and White Valentine beans. These
three varieties have the inside track,
as to yielding and desirable table
qualities. There is plenty of time
to plant, if done soon after this pa
per comes to hand.
The long blood beet, if planted
soon, will grow clear into the late
Autumn or early Winter. While
almost any garden soil will produce
beans, the blood beet needs rich
and well prepared soil, and becanssee
of it's greater size and keeping quail
ity in any good dry cellar is pre-
ferable to the early sort of beets
now almost past as to season. Still,
if the seeds of early sorts can be
had, while the seeds of the long
blood cannot, plant the Eclipse.
For a pickle these have good quail
tiles and are generally relished.
A single beet seed will often pro-
duce three or four plants, hence the
plants will have to be thinned to
only one in place. Besides this
the beets, all sorts, will need culti-
walton and ought therefore to be
planted in rows ten or twelve inches
apart to admit of hoeing
There are quite number of sorts
of turnips and there is of course a
difference in quality also. The
greatest and best yielder is un-
doubtedly the purple top, which
is therefore highly esteemed. The
golden ball and snow ball strap
leaved are two fine varieties of fine
flesh fiber and excellent table quail
tiles. All of the field turnips are
sown broadcast and generally also
too thick. Then, of course, also
they need thinning out, matter
generally neglected and with fatal
results-that is small turnips unfit
for the table. Thick sowing can
be avoided by mixing the seeds with
sand. Because the seeding should
be thin and when they first appear
the plants are small, the prepare
ton of the land should be thorough
and the land rich and in good filth
that is well pulverized. There is
practice of some men of sowing
turnips among standing corn after
the cultivator has done it's work
well in the last blowing. Remem-
Der, the turnip seed when thus sown
needs no covering, more especially
if sown just before a shower. On
farm where sheep are kept, tur-
nips are of great value, because
sheep are partial to turnips and 80
are many people.

FARM Notes.


boiled eggs which auneIo 70 tno
shell are fresh.
If too much sulphur is given it is
apt to cause leg weakness.
Keep lime and ground bone where
the fowls can help themselves.
Milk can be given in place of water
until the fowls are six weeks old.
Unhealthy parents cannot pro-
duce strong and vigorous chicks.
Feed the turkeys regularly SO
that they will come home regularly.
In feeding fowls closely confined,
never feed more than is eaten up
clean.
Nothing tends more to engender
disease in poultry than filth in the
coops.
If the hens are well cared for
while melting they will lay before
Winter.
The drinking vessels should be
cleaned out daily and be filled with
pure water.
Coarse bones in fowls indicate
coarse meat, and a coarse meated
fowl is poor eating.
With poultry, as with other stock,
more than one-half Of early matur-
ity is in the feeding.
This month is q good time to set
bantam eggs for Matching. Late
Matching is best for them.
Feeding hard grain to ducks ex-
clusively usually means crippled
legs or feet sooner or later.
In keeping eggs for market at
this time it is important to keep
them in as cool place as possible.
Late-hatched pullets will nearly
always make small hens, as they
do not grow after cold weather sets
in.
When bantams are Matched too
early in the season they are liable
to grow too large to make them de-
sirable.
The nonsetting breeds will lay as
well in Winter as the setter if they
are kept comfortable and in good
condition.
Pekin ducks are easily raised,
grow rapidly, make flesh twice as
fast as chickens and are early ready
for market.
Hens can be made to do greater
service as egg producers by having
the advantage of good range than
in any other way
Endeavor to keep hens instead of
pullets, as in that way the eggs will
be more uniform. Replace the hens
with pullets as they fall.
Lice Astounding in the flock will
so work against health that general
weakness ensues, and, if allowed to
remain, will cause death.
Poultry should be fed little at
time and often; if inconvenient to
feed often give a moderate ration
and allow the fowls free range.
Just before the early pullets be-
gin to lay their combs will swell
and become red. This sign is valu.
able in selecting the earliest layers.
An egg is made up of 10 parts
shell, 60 parts white and 80 parts
yolk. The white of the egg contains
SO per cent of water and the yolk
81 per cent
One easy way of keeping q poul-
try yard clean is to give it frequent
dressings of sand. The sand is also
good for the fowls, as they will need
some gritty substance.
When a contagious disease ap-
pears in flock the soil in the yard
becomes contaminated, and under
favorable conditions dormant germs

In free representative institutions

Now this provincial grand old

ing promoted to a seat in the
national cabinet. The little pro-
vince of Nova Scotia, which until
the recent Dominion election has
been strongly Conservative, has
yet for many quadrennial periods
maintained the Liberal ministry
of Mr.. Fielding in power in pro-
vincial affairs. He has been able
and honest, and that is the
whole secret. Mr.. Fielding's
career is much like those of some
of the most honored products of
American institutions. He began
life as an Office boy for the lead
ing newspaper of his country.
When scarcely out of his teens he
was an editor Of that paper, and
now he has represented for sever
al terms in the local legislature
the largest county of the pro-
vince, which cannot elect an en-
tire ticket of his party to the fed
eral parliament, and has been the
provincial premier at the same
time. The body polite in coun-
tries with free institutions is after
all, in its judgment of men and
measures, both intelligent and
discriminating.

BEST MEN HOLD.

Professor Bryce, in his great
work, The American Common
wealth." among the few faults
found with the great Republics
institutions, mentions the rule
that representatives in Congress
must belong to the districts that
they represent. The evil the au-
thor sees in this is that the coun-
try at large is deprived, through
tickle local public opinion, of the
services of able statesmen who
happen to be left ut home at cleo

British Columbia elected four
Liberals out of the six represent
atives to which it is entitled in
parliament. Everyone of them
wanted to be the representative of
the province in the Cabinet, and
Mr.. Laurier, the leader of the
party, cut the Gordian knot by
leaving the whole raft of them in
the stream. Hawaii knows what
it is to suffer from the ministerial
"bee in the bonnet" of every tup-
penny hapenny politician. That is
what produced the confusion that
ended in the revolution of 1898.

Put a ring around the word
opportunity the occasion
makes it. Never in the his
tory of mercantile transac-
tions in Honolulu have the
people had such golden
opportunity to select lamp
as to-day. A manufacturer
who had more than he knew
what to do with, more than he
had space to put them, wrote
us Of his troubles. We had
none of our own so we
listened to him. Our stock of
lamps is the result of his tale
of woe and you get the benefit.
A black lamp that will give
a bright light is not a fad, but
a style that will remain until
"New Hawaii" shall become
old. Being sombre in color
they furnish with any decora-
tlons you may have in your
room and any color shade that
suits your fancy will look
well on the lamp.
For a dinner table nothing
furnishes the table better than
black banquet lamps. We have
them, not cumbersome, but of
a height that will beautify
rather than detract from the
other features. We have piano
lamps, hall lamps, boudoir
lamps and every other character
of lamp that ever was made.
The prices are so low that
it would injure our business
to put them in this column.
