STRAwED ROADS IN TEXAs.-Up in
Denton county, says the Galveston Dali
ly News, some of the roads are sandy.
The small grain crop is great. Straw
is abundant. SO it turns out that
"strawing" the roads has been an ex-
pertinent with road builders in Denton
county this year, and judging from
stretch of what used to be very bad
road north of the city of Denton, it Is
claimed the experiment is an unquali
fled success. The piece of road in ques-
ton lies between Denton and the Pi-
lot Point crossing on Clear creek, and
up to this year was almost impassi-
Die for heavily loaded wagons, the
sand being several inches deep. Part
of the road was clayed, and another
part "strawed," the latter done at
about one-half the cost Of the former.
