HINTS FROM MICHIGAN.

Cooperative Rsaa MakinE IN Alleges
County o = Success.
Among the first things that should
interest the farmer-next to the fnan-
cial questionshonId be good roads, in,
order that they can get their produce
to market in the shortest time by draw
ing larger loads. Have had some ex-
perience in this matter, ard will give
the readers Of your valuable paper
the results of my experience. Ny farm
is located three miles east of the coun-
ty seat; the soil is clay part of the way
and sand the remainder.
On the clay soil we rounded or ''turn-
piked" the road well up from each side
from two and one-han to three feet; on
the sand road not quite so much. On
the top we placed clay about foot
thick in center. SO water would run
oil into ditch on either side, thereby.
leaving roadbed free from standing
water. The first and principal point in
permanent roadmaking is to keep the
water off. Crawling is another impor-
taRt thing; unless done right the road
will be made even worse than before.
About eight yards of gravel to the rod
should be used, as free from stones az
possible. Would throw out all large
stones when drawn and have small
ones raked of once or twice during the
first two or three years. filing the ruts
by raking or scraping with road
scraper. ..-..-
Begin your roadmaking at the far
thest point away in your road district.
As soon as you pass. mans farm his
interest naturally begins to lag. BY
starting on the outside and working in
every man is interested until the last
load is drawn. We had some opposi-
ton at the start for commencing where
we did, but before we got through all
were satisfied. In our case the town
board, by appropriation, paid the men
who shoveled on wagons, and also a
man to spread the gravel on the road.
We farmers donated the team work
and also got some cash donations from
outside parties. The town graded aud
fixed the road ready to receive the
gravel.
Now, why could not similar arrange
ments be made and carried ont in other
| localities? It is of the utmost impor-
lance to the farmer, and likewise ia
the business man, as road of this kind
can be used every day in the year and
much heavier loads may be drawn
surely an important item.-W. II. War
ner, Jr., in Rural World.

The Cost of Pavements.

A comparison of various pavements
has been made at Northampton, Eng
land, by local engineer. The ma
terials being laid on a Portland cement
concrete six inches thick, he finds that
granite costs SO per square yard, with
life of 80 years; Australian hardwood
blocks, $3.50 PEI square yard, lasting
Is years; creosote deal blocks, SO per
square yard, the durability being but
IL. years. A two-inch natural rock
asphalt on the same bed, good for IS
years, costs 1925 per square yard. To
maintain 1892 square yards of pave
ment 80 years, including watering and
scavengering, is found to cost $4,000
for granite, ss7,21o for Australian hard
wood, 81, 500 for creosote deal and $685.

What DairyfnE Requires.

Dairying requires constant study and
intelligent thought, it requires years
in which to build up profitable herd
of cows and learn how to feed and care
for them and to handle the product.
The man who can successfully breed
and feed dairy cow has mind above
the average. He is student, keen,
bright business man, and you will not
find this class of men dissatisfied with
their business. It is the class of men
who are constantly changing from one
branch to another-men who do not
do much figuring, and cannot tell how
much their cows earned individually or
collectively-who have intense hatred
for the Babcock test and for all cream
cry men.-Kansas Farmer.

MARKETING FRUITS.
Have Each Package ~ Uniform l.
Quality ~ Possible.

Quality ~ Possible.
+ Upon the condition that the fruit is
in when it is offered for sale largely
depends on the price it will fetch. 1t is
essential, therefore, that good care be
taken to pick, sort and pack it so that
when opened in market the fruit will
present an attractive appearance. A
few unripe or few overripe specimens
in box or basket will damage the SALE
With all fruit maturity is distinct
stage, and ripeness or mellowness an
other. For marketing fruit should be
frlly matured-that is, full grown
but it should not be SO ripe as to be
mellow. The stage of ripeness at which
fruit should be picked depends upon
the time and distance it must be sent
for sale. If allowed to remain on the
tree or bush until ripe it will be soft
and often partly rotten by the time it
reaches the consumer. Generally all
early fruit, if picked when mature, will
'be in the right condition for use when
it reaches the consumer. Nearly or
quite all early fruits decay soon after
they are fully ripe.
All fruits sent to market should be
carefully sorted. Have each package
as uniform in quality as possible. It is
poor economy to41niix, the bad fruit
among the best, hoping in this way to
sell the poor at a better price; the re-
verse always happens. Have the pack
ages neat, attractive and convenient
In many cases the difference in price
between carefully sorted, neatly packed
fruit and that of a poor quality deter
mines the question of profit or loss. The
best always sells at q fair price, while
often when the market is overstocked
poor grades are not saleable at any
price.-St Louis Republic.

ALL ITS PEOPLE ARE CRIMINAL


tireIy of Lawbreakers.
There is a town in Italy in which
the majority of the population is Grim
inal-so large majority, too, that on
more than one occasion the entire pop
ulation has been designated as GRIM
inal and outside the law, by official
edict. The recent attempted assassina-
ton of the king of Italy revives the
CORY history of this district, since the
would-be assassin, Pietro Acciarito,
came from there.
The town of ATtena and the surround
ing district have been celebrated for
hundreds of years for the abnormal
number of brigands and other GRIM
inals produced there. The statistics
afford ample proofs of the truth of the
doctrine of heredity. Whole families
for generation after generation have
borne the hereditary criminal faint,
which has been strengthened by the
influence of environment. AS far back
as the twelfth century the records show
Artena to have been the home of nest
OF brigands, and the place has never re-
deemed its reputation. AS early as 1857
Pope Paul ~. proclaimed the entire
population as criminal and outside the
pale of the law.
The man who is elected mayor of the
town takes his life in his hands. In fact,
to aspire to the mayoralty is fe1o de sc,
seeing that every mayor for the last.
sixty-odd years has been assassinated.
Throo {ivnoc ~
the entire adult population has been
indicted for criminal conspiracy. In
1890 80 heads of families were tried for
murders, robberies, arson and a score
of lesser crimes No one has ever been
convicted, however, because it would be
certain death for anyone to testify
against resident. There are doubtless
some honest people among them, but
they are in such hopeless minority
and the state is so utterly unable to at
ford them protection that no testimony
for the crown is ever obtainable.
In 1872 when 70 citizens were on trial
for various crimes, the charge began as
follows: AT Artena classic ground
for crime, where vengeance is barbar-
&c amusement, even among persons Of
the same family, offenses have during
the last 20 years increased to terrible
extent. Whole families have been ex-
terminated and there have been horri-
bic murders, fires and robberies. which
have spread terror in all the surrou1d-
ing DISTRICTS
Lombroso, the criminologist, ex-
presses the opinion that the location of
the town has much to do with the alb
normal development of the criminal
instinct. It is situated in the shadow of
a perpendicular cliff, and the suns rays
never fall upon it.-St. Louis Post-Dis-
patch.
