GOOD ROADS PROBLEM.
Surprising and Certainly I'm
looked For.

The good roads problem, a subject of
interest to almost every man, woman
and child in the whole country, seems
to be about to find solution in a man
ner that is certainly surprising and un-
looked for. And, as is usually the case
with such discoveries, it was accidental.
It has been found that if road be grad
ed up and put in good shape to shed
water and then have liberal applica-
ton of oil made to it, that it will soon
pack solid and remain so, not becoming
either muddy in wet weather or dusty
in dry. AS the kind of oil that is used,
crude petroleum, costs only four dol
lars per barrel, it is estimated that
mile of road IS feet in width can be
treated for less than $500. Compared
with macadamizing or any other we'll
known method heretofore in vogue,
this cost is mere bagatelle, and if
the oil makes and keeps the road as
good as is claimed, and lasts as long as
it is said to do, this will certainly prove
the most inexpensive way to improve
roads.
But this is not all. Everyone knows
that good, dry, dustless road of earth
is far the best in every respect to drive
on. 1t is pleasant for the driver. better
for the vehicle and infinitely better for
the team. AS the oil treatment has not
been extensively tried, it is not def
nitely known whether it will do well
on oil kinds of dirt roads, but it costs
so little to test the matter that the
road supervisors in every county ought
to make an experiment on different
kinds of earths to find out the facts.
If all is true that is claimed, this is the
greatest discovery ever made in road
making, and makes good roads posi-
BILE everywhere. The application of the
oil is merely vigorous sprinkling, and
it is therefore easy to make trial

Live stock Statistics.

Some instructive statistics as to the
numbers Of cattle and sheep in the
United Kingdom and In other countries
have been collected by Major Craigie
and are commented upon by him in his
introduction to the agricultural re-
turns says the London Live Stock
Journal. They are of a nature that is
calculated to encourage and strengthen
the industry. While a certain increase
has been recently occurring in the cat
tie of the United Kingdom, this has
been accompanied by a further de-
crease in the United States, bringing
their total herds 5000, 900 under the to-
tai Of 1893. There is also shown the
material decrease of 48 per cent in d
single year at the Cape OF Good Hope
and a small decline in Australasia. Al
though the recovery noted last year 10
continued In the aocks OF the United
States, this Is much more than balanc-
ed by a further loss Of 100000 sheep
In Australia. with q considerable dimi-
mutton at the Cape and small reduc-
tons alike insthe flocks OF France and
In those Of Canada. The relative in,
crease shown to be maintained In the
herds Of the United Kingdom is the
more satisfactory when 1t is remember
ed that the cattle Of this country are
now more numerous In proportion to
area than any In Europe, the such
smaller total herds OF Holland, Bel
GUM and Denmark only excepted. A
recent calculation shows LA head Of
cattle to every 1000 acres OF the meas
ured surface In the United Kingdom, a
proportion which Is greater by % per
cent than was recorded 30 years be-
fore. The figures as to sheep empha-
size the relative predominance which
sheep farming still holds In the agricui-
ture Of the United Kingdom. where as
many as 400 sheep per 1000 acres OF
total surface are still maintained.

Who Discovered America 2

Monterey, Mexico, Nov. 15.-
The report that American officers
have unearthed ancient records
in Pekin showing that the Chin
ese discovered America 1900
years ago and erected temples in
Mexico, has aroused the great
est interest among the scientific
men of Monterey and through
out the country. The Chinese
temples alluded TO are in the
state of Sonora, on the Pacific
coast. The ruin of one of the
temples was discovered near the
town Ures, in that state, about
two years ago.
One of the large stone tablets
fonnd in the ruins was covered
with carved Chinese characters
which were partly deciphered by
q learned Chinaman who visited
the ruins at the request of the
Mexican government. This
Chinaman made the assertion at
the time that the ruins were those
of temple which mad been
erected many centuries ago by
Chinese, but his statement was
not received with credence.
1t has been long claimed that
the Indians of the state of Sonora
are the descendants of the early
Chinese settlers. They possess
many traditions and characters
tics of the Chinese. If the re-
port of the finding of these rec
ords in Pekin is verified an ex-
petition will go from here to ex-
plore further the ancient temp
les of Sonora.
