THE Secretary of Agriculture has
started series of experiments that, il
is believed, will result in showing the
best method for road construction lie
this country and will cause the con-
struction of better highways in the
future. This work will begin at the
New Jersey Agricultural College where
fund of $1,000 has been provided by
the local authorities. 1t will also be
carried on at Genevs, New York, where
a fund of $1,000 has been provided by
privete citizens and the City of Geneva
The Secretary has concluded that there
is vast amount of energy wasted, re-
sultipg from bad roads which have to
be treversed by farmers. He therefore
directed General Stone, in charge of the
road inquiry of the Department. OF Ag-
ricu lture, to look into this matter and
report upon the best methods for road
Improvements. Tbs report shows that
mscsdam is generally preferable to the
Telford system. One of the most i'm
portant parts of this investigation is
that which has led to deteFmin alton
on the part of the Department to ex-
perimenb with steel roads. Il is said
that the reduction OF the pull required
to move q load from forty pounds per
ton on a mecadem road TO eight pounds
per ton on a steel track is sufficient TO
overcome many of the obi actions which
have been urged against the latter
system. Under the present investiga-
ton the OF tjsctions to eteel roads have
mainly disappeared. The obstacle OF
expense is overcome by the reduced
price OF material and the anticipated
high COST OF repair is avoided by the
doing away with wood in the construc-
tion. Ii Is now the purpose OF Secre-
tsry Wilson to have roads to be regard
90 as mOQel rOSQ6 DnllG 6e agricultural
colleges and experimental stations. In
order to encourage any practical work
in this direction in any part of the
country, it is also proposed that the
Director of Road Inquiry furnish the
necessary plant for baildipg model
roads free Of charge while the county
or city authorities who desire q model
road will provide tho necessary mater
ial and labor OF men and teams for the
work, the Government furnishing an
engineer to oversee the work. In this
manner it Is believed that d very small
outlay on the part OF the Government
will result in q very large amouns e in
structive work, and it is believed that
once road obstruction is generally bet
ter understood and can be accomplished
With economy that there will be great
impetus 30 the making OF such improve
msnts throughout the country.

"Out of twenty-one topics especially

"a strong delegation from this Terri

the Industrial growth of our region, by
making know our abundant mineral ano
agricultural reoourses, and by exoheng
ing ideas with represen tetive citizens
from the whole region west of the Miss
issippi, whose commercial interests are
practically identical.
"Arizona suffers in common with
other commonweslths represented in
this Congress from the fallacious notion
that railroad aud other corporations en-
gagged in trsnsaoting public business
are masters instead OF servants of the

reau and Captain Jewell of the Ordnance Bureau
respecting the disposition of the vessels Of the
North Atlantic Squadron this summer and next fall
While there is disposition 10 undertake extensive

which would require the division OF the force of ves-
sells into two organized squadrons the Department
believes that 1t is necessary to good discipline and
the management of tho ships that at least once
wear they should be put through squadron drills
Therefore the North Atlantic Squadron will this year
be put through course of fleet exercises that may
occupy the vessels fo- several weeks at least While
the details are not yet arranged. the number OF
ships that will take part was fixed to-day at seven,
all armored ships. namely. the Massachusetts,. the
Iowa, the Indiana. the Maine. the New-York. the
Texas and the Brooklyn. These ships will act to-
gether in one squadron Most OF the drilling Is ex-
pected 10 take place somewhere Off the Chesapeake
