With the approach OF winter the APP
plications 20 the benevolent committee of
the Kings Daughters increase, and at
present there are very few garments with
which to meet the demand. Friends of
the society frequently say: 81 have some
things which | can give you tohen you
need them"
Applications often have to be answered
as soon as they are received, when there
is no time to send out for articles, so any
persons having garments which they are
willing to contribute, will confer a great
favor if they will send them in as soon as
convenient.
The headquarters OF the society over B.
Z. Hodgkins' candy factory are open Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays, from 8 to
II a. m, and contributions can be left
there or they will be sent for If word is
left with Miss L. A. Belcher at the reading
room.

WORTHLESS REPAIRS.
ENORMOUS SUMS WASTED AN
NUALLY ON ROADS.
ENGINEER PRICE, OF CALIFORNIA, PRE-
sENTs SOME STARTLING FIGURES
CULvERTs SHOULD BE BUILT
OF MASONRY.

Some months ago the people of Saora-
mento county, Cal, voted to issue bonds
for road construction purposes, but
owing to possible defect in the law,
the matter is in the courts for adjudica-
ton. Not long after San Mateo county
voted on the same question and decisive
ly rejected it. 1t is said that this result
indicates THAT the people generally are
not willing to bond their credit for the
purpose of constructing good roads, )"
and that if improvements are to be
made in the highways, some other
method Of providing means fer it must
be found
In an exhaustive address on the sub
ject, Engineer J. r. Price of the state
highway commission, recently consider
ed the matter in detail and showed
what could be accomplished il the mon
ey that is annually spent in worthless
repairs should be devoted to building
permanent roads. In this respect, Cali
fornia may be taken as sample Of
nearly every state, the same considera-
tions applying to all.
Mr.. Price found that every county
spends from $4,000 to $50, 900 in re-
pairs each year; that for II years prior
to 1895, the total was SIT, $50. 1884,
or yearly average of 81, 623, FOL, but
as there are other expenditures not in
cluded in thesufgures, he considers the
annual outlay to be 1900, 900, and
there. are no improvements in the roads
to show for it.
II this outlay is continued for 40
years the amount expended would
reach $50, 900, 900, and this sum would
pay for the construction of l6, 600 miles
of good macadam, costing $1,000 a
mile. There are in the state about A.
600 miles of roads, and to macadamize
one-quarter of them, or II 900 miles,
would satisfy the commercial needs If
the state, hence within 10 years not

The new constitution of Louisiana al
lows the police juries "to set aside at
least l mill per annum of the taxes
levied by them, and to impose a per
capita tax Of not more than 81 per an
mum upon each ablebodied male inhab-
liant and t. levy an annual license of
not less than 25 cents nor more than 81
per annum upon each vehicle, includ-
ing bicycles, kept and used for locomo.

maintaining and repairing the public
roads and bridges of their parishes. "

THE SHORE LINE.

Washington Junction Again Busy
Place-OT for China.
Washington Junction, which has been
comparatively quiet while work was in
progress furt her along the line is again a
busy place. A large crew is busy grading
for switches and yard buildings.
p. ii. Stratton has the frame for the
roundhouse up. The excavation for the
turntable has been made.
Mr.. Stratton also has the contract for
the depot at the junction, and will begin
work on it soon. The depot will be built
in the Y formed by the Washington
County and Maine Central tracks, and
will have platforms on each line.
Six of the depots contracted for by Mr..
Stratton on the line OF he road are prac-
tically completed.
Out on the line work Is progressing
rapidly. Yesterday it was stated that
about fifteen miles of rail needed to be
laid to complete this part OF the work,
and ON this section rails are being laid
from both ends.
Near West Franklin Saturday two coal
cars left the rails, and ripped up the
track for distance. The damage was
soon repaired.
About the contractors Office in Ellis
worth railroad men and engineers are
learning to talk Chinese. The j. p.
Mcdonald company, it is stated, has a
contract to build 800 mile slice of the
great Chinese railroad, and some of the
contractors and engineers here are get
ting ready to mack their trunks for China

only could this enormous amount of
macadam be laid, but enough money be
left over to make the necessary repairs.
Hard roads constructed in this manner
would come slowly, but they would
come in time, and it might prove that
when the people began to realize what
they gained from them they would find
it worth while to issue bonds in order
to hasten the improvements.
The practice of erecting wooden
bridges. culverts and drainways Mr..
Price finds as wastefnl as present meth
DDS of road repair. On the basis of the
expenditures of the last eight years the
outlay for the next 40 years would be
So, SAT, 000 and this for repairs alone,
and yet with this sum he says he can
build stone, concrete or sewer pipe
drains and steel bridges where necessary
on all the roads in each county named"
To illustrate this. masonry can be
constructed at a cost Of from 80 to 50
per cubic yard, concrete for about the
same. Sewer pipe can be laid in place
for from 90 cents to $l.75 per lineal
foot, according to the bore Of the pipe.

walls will contain .63 Of cubic
yard per running foot; a four foot cul-
vert. three feet high, .67 Of cubic
yard; a five foot culvert, four feet
high, .92 Of cubic yard, without
wings; five foot culvert, with five
foot side walls, 1.l5 cubic yards. Then
let culvert be "a feet long, 8 feet high,
with IA span of feet. 1t will cost, at
80 per yard, $l65.G0, containing ~. 6
cubic yards of masonry. The same span
placed with lumber cahnot tie C0ustruct
ed for less than 500, and tI#.uuutly
costs as much as the stone structure.
The wooden structure lasts from five to
ten years, while the concrete or masonry
lasts forever"
The erection of permanent structures
will ''in the course Of time close this
leak in the road funds of the state. 1t
is source of expense that in the period
of 20 or 80 years may be entirely OBJ
liberated if the proper course be pur-
sued. This would give you more money
to put stone upon your roads. We had
better start at the foundation and come
up rather than build from the top down
to the foundation. And your founda
tions are not complete without perma-
nent substructures.

Good roads mean as much as good
crops to the farmer
Without roads no community can
hope to "get there"
A broad tired wagon doesn t hurt any
road.
Motor carriages require require sood roads,
and good roads are good.
