-he Anti-Rut agitation.

Massachusetts, roads are costing all
the way from $4,000 to $25, 900 per
mile.
All money spent on repairing earth
roads becomes each year total loss
without materially improving their
condition.
Whatever road material you uso will
in time need careful repairs by men
skilled in this work. The old adage
"A stitch in time saves nine. applies
here.
The total cost of maintaining roads
in good order ranges, on account OF
varying conditions, between as wide
limits almost as the initial cost of con.
struction.
A plan of road building should be
adopted in every State, city aud town,
and at least portion of carried out
each year and the different materials
should only be used in their proper
place, according to the different con.
ditions that exist il each and every
street.
Dirt roads are, as a rule, the most
expensive roads that can be used,
while on the other hand stone roads,
if properly constructed of good mater.
ial and kept imperfect condition, are
the most satisfactory, the cheapest,
and most economical roads that can be
constructed,
The road that will best suit tho
needs OF the farmer, in the first place,
must not be too costly; and, in the
second place, must be of the very best
kind, for farmers should be able to do
their heavy hauling over them when
their fields are too wet to work and
their team would otherwise be idle.
New JerseY is building more roads
and better roads for less money pen
mile than any other State in the
Union. Their roads are now costing
from twenty to seventy cents per
square yard. Where the telford con.
struction is used they sometimes cost
as much as seyenty-three cents per
square yard.

His prisoners regarded him with

pointed a bejeweled finger through

Raiah who spoke.
They obeyed, and this is what they
saw;
A long court of extreme narrow

"Of course, you soc the scoundrel's $

And his face grew white as death.
Softly though the words were ut

not miss them.
"a race-that is it," he said, his
voice trembling with half suppressed
excitement "a race fol life. See,
am merciful, if you leap the gun be-
fore the fuse burns to the touch hole,
you shall dine with me tonight, and
go where you will with the sunrise.

At a glance from the Raiah's stern
eyes Major Lasceles was seized; but
the officer, by powerful effort,
wrenched himself free, and faced up
on his captors with look rendered
more terrible by it's despair than by
its anger While they hesitated, the
Major turned to his companion with
extended hand.

Frost and Its ForInation.

A farmers bulletin on the subject
of protection from frost has been pre-
pared by Il, b. GARRETT, professor of
meteorology of the weather bureau, at
Washington. The bulletin defines
frost and the conditions which favor
it's formation, and gives the methods
of protection which have been found
practicable by experiments. 1t tells
when to expect frosts and describes
devices for preventing the rapid radi-
alton of heat, for charging the air with
moisture, and for adding moisture to
the air. Some facts regarding freezes,
which are destructive alike to tender
vegetation and to plants of harder
growth, are also given. The bulletin
says that in the dry climate of the cit.
rus fruit region of California and in
the promising fruit districts of Ari-
zona small and numerous fires, prefer
ably of coal burned in iron baskets,
have been found TO be the most eilec
tive device used for protection against
frost; second in point of utility may
be placed irrigation; the practical pro-
cess which affords the least protection
appears to be smudge fires. In the
orange growing districts of the South
irrigation affords the most effective
protection against frost, while in re-
gions where this process can not be
employed damp smudge fires, proper
ly handled, are best adapted to gem
eral use.

Hats for the season now at its
height present a bewildering display.
They are weighted with fruits and ber-
ries, leaves and blossoms which have

are presented in combinations which
require great courage to wear.
A toque of several shades of violet
velvet in bands, interlaced with black
Paradise feather, fastened by Jew eled
rosette, is among tina recent styles
and is suitable for evening wear.
For visiting there is broad -briumel
