How Emery Is auarried.

Emery comes from the island of
Naxos, in the eastern Mediterranean,
whence it has been exported for the
last two centuries or more. The beds
are in the northeast of the island, the
deposits descending into some of the
neighboring islands, the emery being
found in lenticular masses. resting on
layers of schist in limestone almost
identical with Parian marble, the fin
est marble known. which comes from
the island Of Paros, close by.
There are about 800 men engaged
In the trade, all of whom have to be
married before they are admitted to
the fraternity. The material is much
too hard to be dug out or even blast
ed Great fires are lighted around the
blocks till the natural cracks expand
with the heat and levers are then in
serted to pry them apart This sys-
tenn is continued until the blocks are
reduced in size to masses Of cubic
foot or less. and they are then shipped
as II they were coal. There are said
TO be 20, 900 tons yet available at
Naxos, and the last reported years ex-
port was $3.50 tons. 1t is one Of the
hardest substances known.-Ironmon-

HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT.
Facts Showing the Economy Of
Hard, smooth stone Roads.

Facts Showing the Economy Of
Hard, smooth stone Roads.
The principle Of the good roads move
ment as advocated by the wheelmen is
that the common roads of the country
are as important as the railway sys-
TENS, the statement being made by
them and being easily understood that
there is not an ounce of any commodi-
ty hauled over the railroads that is not
first transported by wagons over coun-
try roads or city streets. 1t does not
matter If the commodity is manufac
tured articles that. are loaded on cars
at the factory. The raw material has
first to be hauled to the factory. But
the greatest hauling is done in the
farming districts, and there it is that
good highways are most needed.
The subject has not been given the
attention and support it deserves as
yet for the simple reason that private
capital cannot become interested in
the building Of common roads, since
there would be no income from the
investment, such as there is in rail-
ways. Municipal, county, state and
the national governments nave not had
the issue brought directly before them
In it's full significance, because it is
necessary to first educate the people
to the necessities Of the movement
This is what is being done by the
wheelmen at the present time. and it
must be said to their credit that they
have enlisted the sympathy and sup
port of all the prominent farmers or

CARNATIONS In the movement. With
the two classes working together it is
only question Of time until the move
ment will be made a political issue,
and then will come the desired Inn
provements.
The argument offered In favor of the
improved roads is that they lessen the
cost of repairs, make it possible to
haul the largest amount Of goods with
the smallest animal power, save time
and Increase property valuations. No
railroad company would expect to do
business If its tracks and roadbed
were In such condition as to make 1t
either impossible to use the tracks at
long seasons Of the year or in using
them have to lose a great deal Of time
and have immense repairs to make,
and yet that is what the farmers and
others using the common roads are
doing in a comparative way every day
In the year.
They make the most impracticable
attempts at road building and repair
ing and then wonder why there is no
profit in their products, which have
been hauled over bad roads at the
greatest expense. It has been esti-
mated that In the states where the
stone roads have been built the cost Of
transportation has been decreased to
20 per cent Of the former figures and
that the roads pay for themselves
within few years. 1t has been fur
Their shown that the amount lost in
the different ways mentioned VIII
more than pay for the building and re-
pairs Of these roads on the annual as
sessments made for them or that 1t
costs no more each year to have good
roads than 1t does to have bad ones.

the period when Tralawney fashions

MACHINE FOX LOOSENING MACADAM.
important in another way, as 1t keeps
the ground underneath the road free
from saturation and thereby makes a
strong foundation. It is the natural
earth underneath the covering that
must bear the weight Of the road. It
really sustains In addition the weight
OF stone, etc, as well
II this natural soil, or foundation of
the road. is permitted to become satu-
rated with water. either by water per
colating down into 1t from the surface
or from water rising into 1t from be-
low, It has not strength to resist the
wheels which at once sink into it, and
ruts are formed. But II this soil foun-
dalton is kept dry or nearly so It is
strong and win support any load likely
to pass over 1t. If the water is shed
from the road to the cutters and there
remains, the water works it's way into
the earth at the foundation of the road
and causes the injury above spoken of.
Speaking Of the great Importance of
keeping a road in repair, let wagon
track, scarcely perceptible at first, after
shower stand full of water and
soften the road at that spot another
wagon passing along later sinks fur
Their into the softened track. here is a
deeper hole to hold water, soon 1t be-
comes rut, then the rut develops into
q pitch hole. The soil underneath is
brought up and mixed with surface
covering, the surface covering is bro
ken down and forced into the soil.
Here, then. is q bad road and per-
manent weakness, the result Of a neg
lect to repair the road at the proper
time and neglect to keep the drain
age of the road in perfect condition at
all times.
