this spread an equal thickness of fine
stone, sprinkle and roll as before, and
the road is done.
The largest size of crushed stone
should not exceed one inch in diameter,
and the smaller pieces should be no
larger than almonds; the more irrcgu-
lar of course the better, since irrcgu-
larity helps them to knit. In bringing
an old country road up to the standard
it is best to attack the hills. Cut
through their tops and put the material
thus obtained in the dips between.
This kills two birds with one stone and
is easily worked, since material is al
ways being moved to a lower level.
The road should be widened toward
the fences and the excessive crown re-
moved. and provision must always be
made for carrying water under the
road by sufficiently large pipe when
the line crosses gully or any place
that may ever contain a stream.

Quiring the use of rubber for very wide
tires by all vehicles, the width increas-
ing with the weight carried.
The more road is used by vehicles
so equipped the better it will become,
especially if the surface is not rough
encd by the feet OF horses struggling to
drag their loads up steep hills.

one will show him how to build them
and help to pay for them. There should
be national and state aid, for the cOun-
try and state as we'll as the local COM
munitieS have use for the roads and
should pay their share in creating and
maintaining them. The first move
should be in the direction Of cO-Opera-

ton of practical system capable Of
expanding and taking in the entire
country. In this way we might create
a system of national highways such as
we find in several European countries.

No investment could be safer for the
United States government than aiding
the improvement of public roads, which
add so materially to the wealth Of a
country, and this may lead up to the
construction of great national high
way across the continent. Such n road
should be an object lesson and have n
beneficial influence by encouraging in
tercourSe between different sections Of
the country.
Convict labor might be used to adj
vantage in charging and improving our
road system, since this would give the
cOnvicts useful occupation and in
which they would not compete with
honest labor.
However. in connection with automo-
billing we always come back to the
question OF good roads, on which auto
mobiles depend, so that in the develop

ANNUAL FALL FESTIVAL.
How Cincinnati Manufacturer Adj
vertiae Their Wares.

The Cincinnati fall festival has be
come n fayOrite medium with manufac-
turers for the exploitation of their prod
ucts. Last year Its paid admissions
were remarkably large in numbers.
while the attendance this year exceed
ed that OF last. Over 100000 square
feet In the great Music hall is devoted
TO exhibits and shows.
One of the influences that help boom
the attendance Mt the fall festival Is
the active interest taken in 1t by the
railroads OF that section of the country.
All the lines running into Cincinnati
give special excursion rates during the
fair, and these excursions are adver-
ilsed extensively throughout the terri
tory. The result is that Immense
crowds take advantage of the low rates
and visit the show.

CATTLE INDUSTRY is HIT
British Army to BE Fed Homes
Grown Beef.

Washington, April 12.--Thc depart,
mcnt Of agriculture has received a
dispatch from q prominent packing
company of Chicago, announcing that
they have just been advised that the
English government has excluded all
beef except home bred from the Brit
ish army contracts. This, it is stat
ed, is to be effective June / next.
The Chicago concern has asked the
a@ricu]t ural department for any as
sistance it can render. 1t is pointed
out that the action Of the British gov
eminent is a severe blow to American
beef and cattle exporters and pro-
tluccrs. and means not alone the loss
in government trade, but it is feared
it will serve very materially toward
melting prejudice on the part OF
Great Britain against the beef and
cattle Of this country.

ported contemplated move has

statements of officials. Steps have

TO demonstrate the importance Of
the move contemplated it is pointed
out that the value Of our exports OF

to be, in round numbers, 5000, 100000

pointed out that if the British really

There is little doubt that Russia will
renew the struggle III some shape. It
is a remarkable outburst of popular
feeling which has thus enabled China
to withstand Russia. All the appeals
