Good Roads in Alabama.

Too much cannot be said in favor of
good roads in this State-a State that
has very poor roads except in very
few counties.
What is needed in this State in the
respect of public roads is education
and agitation, with a view to securing
the appointment by the next Legislat-
ure of commissioner of public roads.
Such a man must be a competent man.
He must not only know good road
when he sees 1t, but he must be able
to build good road. He must also
be man who can talk to the people,
who can tell county commissioners
how to place bonds-an educator, in
fact, who must visit every county in
the State at least twice year. In or
der to secure competent man he must
be paid living salary-say, $2500 a
year, or about $40 county. And such
a man will be we'll worth to any county
many times $40 each and every year.
1t is a practical piece of business, in
which there is no politics, something
we can all support to a man, some
thing we will support to the utmost If
we desire to make Alabama the best
State in all the world. All she lacks
now Is good ds.-Birmingham Age

Kidding Lisbon of Rats. :

Lisbon has recently been subjected
to an unprecedented invasion of rats,
which has disordered the domestic
economy of every household. and made
life miserable. Cats were powerless
to check the invaders; poison seemed
to act as stimulant to their appetites,
and traps only served to demonstrate
the helplessness of mans ingenuity to
cope with the pest. At length the aid
of the bacillus was invoked, and the
municipal doctors were commissioned
to inoculate some rats with an infec-
tious disease. A suitable virus, harm
less to man. was found, a few rats
captured and inoculated, and then let
loose. The bacillus triumphed. The
rats sickened and died with wonderful
rapidlty, and to-day Lisbon Is cele-
brating the conquest of the voraclous
rodent.
1t is now proposed to use the virus
on board ships, where rats are known
to be the carriers of infection fatal to
man-notably plague.-London Ex-
press.

Caueht the Egg Thief.

A Long Island doctor who has been
missing eggs from his poultry yard
for some time is happy at last. for he
has discovered the thief. For months
every effort and every device to detect
the culprlt failed. but, finally. the doc
tor hit upon scheme that was worthy
Of Sherlock Holmes.
He took a dozen or more eggs and
bored the tiniest of holes in the shell
Of each. Then through these holes he
introduced into the eggs a piece of
very fine wire. The holes were then
filed with white wax and the eggs
returned to the nest.
A few days afterward the doctor
was called in to see the child of a
woman in the village near him. After
attending to the child he talked about
one thing and another until the lady
told him of such a strange thing that
had happened to her. A few days
before she had bought a half dozen
eggs from the village grocer. and in
four of them she had found short
pieces of wire.
These were produced and shown to
the doctor, who took possession of
them and told the lady how they had
had come to be in the eggs. He then
interviewed the grocer, who finally
admitted that he had been buying eggs
for some time from a man employed
by the doctor. The man Is now work
ing elsewhere and the doctor no longer
patronizes that particular grocer.-New
York Times.

Prospects For Dairy Farming.

Taking the country In general, the
field of dairy farming never held forth
better promises than it does at present.
During the last year the price of
cheese and butter has been uniformly
high, especially that of cheese. And
there is no reason for believing that
the active condition of the market is
not to continue. In fact, we have rea-
son for anticipating better prices fer
butter and cheese in the new year
than we have had in the last.
In the Department of Agriculture at
Washington vigorous efforts have 3een
made In catering to foreign trade for
butter The efforts of the Department
have been quite successful. With a
larger expectation of butter We are
assured Of better prices at home.
The impending doom of the colored
oleomargarine interests also gives
great hope to the dairymen. The vie
tory of the dairymen of this country
over the manufacturers of colored oleo
is simply question of time. 1t seems.

and better creamery butter and less
poor dairy butter.-John Michels, in

Relics of q Lost Tribe.

A valuable archaeological find has
just been made near the ancient town
of Novgorod, on the banks of Lake H.
men. The articles found include hun
dreds of flint arrowheads. spearheads,
axheads of slate, flint. fishhooks and
an enormous mass of crockery and
similar fragments, ornamented in the
same style as those found previously
in other parts of the same province.
Archaeologists consider the discovery
proof of the existence in the neighbor-
hood OF Lake linen of numerous
population during the stone age. The
articles found are all of one class and
date. indicating the existence of a con-
siderable tribe, which must have either
been wiped out or have migrated 10

higher stage OF culture than that of the
stone age.-London Standard.

There is nothing very difficult in
the construction of any of this sea-
sons dresses, as they are plainly
made, and there is very little trim
ming to be seen upon any of them;
all the newest wooden fabrics are
wider than usual, consequently they
can be cut to better advantage, and
the skirt of dress can be made with
one or two seams, according to the
width of the material. Good quality
lace collars and soft silk fichus edged
and intersected with lace are more
popular than ever for decorating a
bodice or a blouse, and they enable
one TO make variety of changes in
the appearance of the same costume.
For this reason plain fabrics and mot
tied mixtures are mostly preferred
for making up outdoor gowns.

AGRICULTURAL.
Provide Green FOOD For the Hens.

Those who keep hens must not for
get to provide something in the way
OF green food that may be used by
them when the weather gets real cold
and the ground frozen hard, for under
such circumstances 1t is impossible
for them to get any grass or something
that will take its place. 1t is good
plan to stow away some cabbages or
rutabaga turnips. to be used only for
the chickens. for both of them are
comparatively cheap, and they will
surely be the means of greatly increas-
ing the egg supply when, fed during
cold weather.
