public road inquiries, Department of Agri-
culture. has been in town comforting with
prominent men who are interested In the
good roads movement in regard to the
much-talked-of highway to be built from
ocean TO ocean across the United States. 1t
is his idea TO first interest the bicycle riders
and get continuous cycle path from BoS-
ton to Chicago This would be done by the
cooperation with the l.. A. w. of the office
which Mr.. Dodge represents. The counties
through which the road shall pass and the
Examinations of the branch lines ETC.. would
be designated by the department.. and the
following cities have already been definitely
decided upon as points on the route: Bos-
ten, Albany. Buffalo, Cleveland. Toledo and
Chicago. branch path would cannect
New York and Albany. The further map
ping out of the course would be matter
for elaboration between the state officials
of the l.. A w. and the local authorities in
the counties and towns. The money for the
scheme would come from various sources.
In the first instance the voluntary contribu-
tons and assistance of property owners and
bicycle clubs with the sale of license tags.
would fuild the cycle paths, the expense Of
which is comparatively small In some
states-tor instance. Ohio-1O per cent of the
money expended on roads is now set aside
for the construction of cycle paths. When
the time to establish a Boulevard arrives
Mr.. Dodge Is in favor of the national gov
eminent, the state governments and the
local authorities each paying one-third of
the cost. A meeting VIII be called in Wash
inEton the first week in October, at which
President Conway Sans and the state con-
suls of the L. A. w. will be present. Later,
when the road mas been mapped out and
plans made committee will go over the
entire route and decide upon details. Sc
res of good roads meetings. at which OBJ
ject lessons in road building are given. have
been or are to be held under, government
auspices at the following cities: Port Huron

ORTOLANS AND REED BIRDS.
Plentiful and Fat i'm Eastern Branch
and PatuNent Marshes.

Ortolans are more plentiful than ever in
the Eastern branch marshes, and what is
better. are larger and fatter than ever The
same cheerful facts true of the reed
birds. while there is large increase in the
visitors to the marshes in the shape of
yellow-shank plover. blue-wing teals and
jacksnipe. The beating down of the oats
and the higher tides are serving together
to make boat pushing through the cover
less difficult, and today there was larger
number of gunners out than any day of
the season, with the probabilities strongly
in favor of big bags.
Reports from the Patuxent are excellent
also. The Glebe marsh Immediately in
front of the Glebe Rod and Gun Club
house has been the favored grounds 80 far;
but high tide will make the big Mount
Calvert marsh more popular. Some excel
lent bags Of ortoanS We're made on the

was guest of Captain Poplar # the yacht

Patuxent for the shooting, bagging eighty

not shoot the tide out. The birds We're
unusually large and very fat
