sYou never saw anything like mineral

ten years city passenger agent of the
Northern Pacific railroad in Butte.

all our own vegetables. There is no end
Of mineral water from the springs, and
we use it for irrigation. Nothing like
it, I assure you. The vegetables are the
finest you ever saw; not speck or flaw
of any kind on any of them. The water

some remarkable crops, but we easily

THE business at the Springs is all that
we could desire. The travelling public
takes kindly to our efforts to give a first

been large. The work of renovation and
rebuilding has been heavy. but is get

medicinal in every way, and few days

the jaded city man."
Mr.. Mccormick is we'll known in Butte,
from his long connection with the North

most every man, woman and child in the
city at some time of his career.

ODD FELLOWS ANNUAL PICNIC
Yesterday Twin Bridges Was the
Scene Of the Orders Yearly
Festivities

Yesterday the annual picnic of the
Odd Fellows took place at Twin Bridges.
A year ago the city of Deer Lodge had
the honor of being the meeting place o.
the organization which has adopted
three links of log chain for it's en-
blem and has won the reputation OF
never scoring a failure when engaged in
arranging picnic excursions. 1t was
great day for the Odd Fellows and their
friends, this picnic of year ago, but 1t
was not a marker to the one they h1d
yesterday. A year ago the wind blew
great clouds of dust across the big pavil-
ion at Deer Lodge and it looked liks
rain several times during the day; yes
terday at Twin Bridges the skies wore
broad smile and the grass and trees
nodded their heads In the gentle breeze
as if they bowed graceful acknowledge
ment of the honor of the distinguished
visitors. It was such a day as but few
picnickers of the city of Butte have
seen.
Three excursion trains pulled out OF
the Northwestern Pacific depot yester-
day forenoon at an early hour. On the
first train of 10 coaches were fully 500
people. Three engines pulled and
tugged at the train as it swept on its
way through the defiles Of the noun
tains that sentinel the railroad between
here and where the Jefferson valley
spreads it's verdure in gentle unduia-
lions, like carpet of green. Two other
trains of like Dimensions followed the
first and altogether about 1000 people
took in the picnic.
The usual games, dances and picnic
jollities were INDUCED in by the happy
crowd and the committee of Odd Fellows

HELP TO GOOD R0ADWAYs
Hot Petroleum Used as Cement on the
Surface of Highways-A ~
Novel idea ~

"California has discovered a new meth
cd Of making good roads," said D. J.
Simons of Oakland, who is stopping at
the Thornton. 1T is in the use of hot
crude petroleum as a cementing mate
rial. ~
THE art of road making is probably
more important tc civilization than any
other one of mans accomplishments. It
is only in recent years that Americans
outside of few of the older settlements,
have begun to appreciate the full COM
mercial and social advantages of good
roads, and to encourage their building
through liberal appropriations of public
money from state, county and township
treasures. +.
mo sooner was such work begun than
there arose serious questions in many To-
calities as to what material was best for
the local production Of good roads,
Where stone was cheap and plentiful
it naturally became the accepted road
making material, but even in such sec
tons stone road is not always the most
satisfactory. Earth roads, made of sand
or gravel, which contain good cemeting
material, such as proper admixtures of
loan, clay or iron ores, make roads much
smoother and more pleasant to drive over
while not so likely to be unpleasant from
dust.
"Such roads are much cheaper to build
for hardly locality can be found which
does not contain some handy bed Of fair
road-making material. In many sections
the natural soil is all that is needed to
make good roads for fair weather use.
Such roads. however. are sure to suffer
| under the stress of winter rains and
! frosts and summer droughts. and break
| up badly.
'Such was the situation in Fresno
| when the working of Californias new Oh

| gested it's use on the road. The idea
