Cheap and Durable Rond..

The problem of a cheap and service
able country road has been solved in
the western part of Cranston. There
are about six miles of this road, which
was built four years ago. The old
country gravel road was the founda-
ton. This was thoroughly picked
and softened, and the macadam, con
sisting of a coarse stone bottom with
finer crushed stone and dust on top,
was put on and firmly pressed down
with a steam roller. Not much grad
ing was done, and no attempts were
made at Strengthening. No care was
taken for sidewalks. The cost was
estimated at S 800 per mile. For a
road after four years use with no re-
pairing or sprinkling, this appears to
be remarkably good. The town has
its w roller and crusher, and buys
stone of its W farmers.--W. E..
Stone, in Orange Judd Farmer.

Oats and corn ground together, with

speech gives way to splitting, the repulsive
odors of chronic catarrh poison the kiss of
the fondest lovers, and thickened men,
branes bedim sight, impair hearing and de-
stroy taste.
Like the plague-stricken Egyptians a cry
of distress has gone out from every house
hold, and the mildew of woe clings to every
hearthstone.
Catarrh in some form, catarrh in. some
stage turks as an enemy in the slightest
cough or cold and finishes it's fendish work
in heart disease and consumption.
No tissue, function. or organ of the body
escapes its ravages; muscles wither, nerves
shatter, and secretions dry up under its
blighting presence. So stubborn and diff
cult is this disease that to invent a remedy
to cure chronic catarrh has been the ambi.
ton OF the greatest minds in all ages.
Is it therefore any wonder that the vast
multitude of people who have been cured
of chronic catarrh by Peruna ars 10 lavish
in their praise of this remedy? That the
discovery of Peruna has made the cure of
catarrh a practical certainty is not only the
testimony of the people, but many medical
men declare it to be true.

BOXES FOR APPLES.
Tendency9Is Toward smaIl Packages
and for This Reason the
Barrel Is Doomed.

! am thoroughly convinced that for
the better grade of apples the barrel
is doomed, states Prof. Bailey, in
american Gardening. 1t will not go
out of use this year or next, nor by leg
islative fat, but i am convinced that
we shall see a gradual increase in the
use of boxes. The ordinary kind of
apples, as Baldwin and Ben Davis, may
perhaps be shipped in barrels to better
advantage, at least for the time being;
but all good grades of best apples
must eventually come to be sold in
smaller packages.
The tendency of trade is toward the
smaller package. The time is not SO
very far back when peaches were sold
in bulk, but o the finest grades are
sold in small baskets, and the buyer
takes them home for the dessert.
Pears are now sold very largely in kegs
or half barrels. In the old days grapes
were shipped. in barrels in New York
state.
The better the fruit, the smaller the
package should be, as a-rule. One
cannot conceive of a customer taking
home a barrel of apples under his arm
to his wife or his sweetheart.
The temptation to dishonest pack
ing is very much less in the small pack
age. 1t is impossible for a man to put
a bushel of poor apples in the middle
of a bushel box. The small package
enforces high grading and uniform
packing of the product.
1t is almost impossible to pack many
varieties of apples so snug in a barrel
that they will not shake when they
reach their destination. This is par
ticularly true if the apples are to be
exported.
The small package will tend to in
duce people to wrap their fruits, espe-
cially of the dessert kinds. Wrapping
of the fruit not only insures the keep
ing of it, but it also takes up the slack
and prevents shaking. Apples which
are we'll wrapped fill a box more rap
idly than those which are not; the box
does not contain so much fruit.
I am ware that there are many OBJ
jections to the use of the box, but
nevertheless it is bound to come to the
fore for the better qualities of fruit.

storage for Root Crops.

Beets. turnips and carrots can be
kept in bins in the barn or cellar. A.
layer of carrots and a layer of dry
oats or corn, or even of sand, will keep
them at an even temperature and pre-
vent sudden freezing and thawing.
The same applies to potatoes or other
root crops. Cold doeo not do them as
much damage as warmth. 1t is when
they thaw suddenly that they begin to
decay. Apples wiA remain frozen
without being impaired in keeping
qualities, but they will soon show the
effects of thawing. All root crops that
are kept just above the freezing point
will remain in good condition.

Women Like Nice Horses.

One of the absolute necessities on
every well regulated farm is some
thing that the women can drive. Too
many farmers have plenty of horses
without having anything that the
women and children can take out
alone with the expectation Of getting
back the same day. Horses that wom-
en- can use are too often so old or so
slow that it is hard work to get any
where with them. Provide the wom-
en- something they can drive. They
want to go sometimes when you can
not, and they want to get there when
they go.-National Stockman.

MILK for Cottage Cheese.

Some people have difficulty in MAX
ing good cottage cheese, and are un-
able to tell where the difficulty lies.
Generally, when poor cheese is made
the milk is too sour or is heated to
too high a temperature before being
made into cheese. With milk at an
ordinary degree of it is neces-
sary to heat to only 14o degrees be-
fore putting into a bag and draining.
The higher the milk is heated the
dryer and harder the curd will be.
and, we might add, the more unpal-
eteble.-Farmers' Review.

"A HANDFUL
OF DOUGHTY
MINISTERS
Send Members Of Second Branch Of
Council Into a Panic, Making
GttImpossible
10 HOLD REGULAR MEFTING
Scheduled Last Night-1Einisters say
They VIII Stay with Coun-
ell to Finish.


The city council was to have held a
regular meeting last night. but the
presence Of a delegation of some ten
or fifteen ministers in the lobby Of the
second branch scared several council-
ment, who figured in a sudden disap-
pearance act, thus breaking the quor-
um. and making 1t impossible to hold
the meeting, The ministers were on
hand promptly at 8 o'clock, and took
seats just to the right of the rail.
Among them were Rev, Messrs. sooy,
oliphant, Littell, sehwarm, Cunning
ham, Bigger, Hardness, Clark and 9TH
ers.
When Clerk o'Brien called the sec
Ond branch roll the presence of eleven
members was developed. Later, Mr..
Radcliffe. OF the Eighth ward, walked
in. Another member was out in the
hall, and others were down stairs.
Sergeant Knoke was instructed to 60
after the absentees, but they must
have made themselves scarce, as the
ofticer reported all had left the building.
Just at this stage Of the proceedings,
Mr.. Ritter moved adjournment, and
Mr.. Radcliffe seconded, but the motion
was voted down declslvely. Then there
was a wait of several minutes. during
which Mr.. Radcliffe walked out and
made his escape.
Finally President Maxwell instructed
the officer to request Chief clemans to
send out deputies and bring in sum-
Client absentees to give the branch its
quorum. Fourteen make a quorum, so
only three were needed. While the
chief was making an effort to hunt the
absentees, the first branch became rest
less, and at s:l5 o'clock, on motion Of
Mr.. Rnoke, seconded by Mr.. stroebel,
the branch adjourned. This left no re-
course for the second branch, but to
follow suit, (which 1t did.
Without going into the slot machine
question, which brought about the pres
ence Of the ministers, It is undoubtedly
a fact that the action of the second
.branchers In breaking the quorum puts
council in a ridiculous light. Those of
the ministers who expressed themselves
last night were Of the opinion that the
tiasco would add strength to their
movement. They stated that they would
stay with the second branch until they
are accorded a hearing.
1t is understood the ministers were to
have asked the second branch to take
from the table the waterhouse resolu-
ton, passed at the last meeting OF coun-
ell by the first branch and tabled nde-
flnltely in the second. This resolution
calls on the chief of police to enforce
the antl-gambllng ordinance.
1t is said there was an antl-slot ma
jorlty on hand in the second branch,
hence the breaking of the quorum.
No steps had been taken last night to
call a special meeting of council for the
transaction of routine business, but one
will probably be had. Business to have
been considered last night.included the
refund ordinance and the city clerks
annual report.
City Clerk o'BrIeR's report on the
expenditures and balances in the sew
