A Grand Trunk Highway.

1t is gratifying TO learn. through Z
report recently made by w. L. Diciin-
son, Treasurer of the New York and
Chicago Road Association. and also
through Albert \. Pope. its President.
that the preliminary steps taken to ac-
complish tn: construction of Il continu-
Gus highway from New York to Chic;-
30 have brought highly satisfactory re-
suits Treasurer Dickinson. who has
lately completed q tour OF the route 10
be followed by the new road, states
that the different authorities of the
towns and counties to he traverSed by
the thoroughfare are heartily for the
project, and promise TO aid it TO the eX-
tent Of their power.
Statistics show that good reads az
gregating $50 miles in length already
exist along the proposed route. which
indicates that only about o miles of
new road will need to be built in order
to connect the two cities iii tie manner
desired. The laws governing the on
SIruction Of such Il highway appear TO
present no obstacle. except in the State
OF Indiana. where. it is sad. they will
have TO be amended slightly before :he
plan can be carried out.
An important feature OF the Treasu-
rer's investigation was his discovery
that the various town anu county off,
GERS with whom he consulted appre-
ciate thoroughly the benefit they will
derive from the highway when it is
completed. They do noT overlook the
fact that this great avenue. together
with the many branch roads which will
diverCe from ii. will greatly increase
the value of their properly by facilitat-
ing transportation. and will also add.
in 4 general way, to their domestic
prosperity.
We hope that the prediction made
some weeks ago by the associations
Vice-PreSident that within three or
four years Il grand trunk highway be-
tween New York and Chicago will be
an accomplished fact" will be full
filled, and. judging from the zeal and
success which have attended the move
ment so far it will be.

Good Roads Campaign.

There have been many practical in
Guences ar work as aids to the coed
roads movement, but the farmers have
been unusually conservative in lending
their cooperation to the effort to bring
about a change in the laws governing
the payment of highway taxes. and
they have not taken an active part in
the movement which seeks 4 reform in
the way these taxes are expended. AL
though farming communities are the
ones principally interested i'll good
highways, and the pockets Of the
farmers are directly benefited by
cheapening the cost Of hauling their
products to market. they are prone to
adhere TO old methods, and are appre-
hensive that the expense Of a change
in the method Of building and main
tanning roads will fail upon them with
out resulting compensating benefits

Observation-Disclosures Of WASHINGTON.

George Washington, a great-grand-

was a witness in a New York city
court a few days ago. His great.
grandfather, William Washington, was
the generals brother, but being a Tory
left this country for England during
the wal Of the revolution. Later he
settled in Belgium. The twentieth
century George does not care for the
reflected glory that comes with his
name, though no one has greater ven

T ROM 4 recent publication or
II the United States Office OF
Road Inquiries we take the
following:
An essential feature of good roads is
good drainage, and the principles OF
good drainage remain substantially the
same, whether the roads be construct
ed of earth, gravel. shells, stones or as
phalt. The first demand Of good drain
age is to attend to the shape of road
surface. This must be crowned or
rounded up toward the centre, so that
there may be a fall from the centre to
the sides. thus compelling the water to
flow rapidly from the surface into the
cutters, which should be constructed
on one or both sides. and from there
in turn be discharged into larger n
more open channels. Furthermore. it
is necessary that no water be allowed
to flow across a roadway; culverts,
tile, stone, or box drains should be pro-
vided for that purpose.
In addition to being we'll covered n
drained the surface should be kept as
smooth as possible, that is. free from
ruts. wheel tracks. holes or hollows.
If any of these exist, instead Of being
thrown to the side the water is held
back and is either evaporated by the
sun or absorbed by the material OF
which the road is constructed. In the
latter case the material loses its solid
ity, softens and yields to the impact OF
the horses feet. and the wheels OF We
hicles. and. like the water poured upon
a grindstone. so the water poured on 4
road surface which is not properly
drained assists the grinding action OF
the wheels in rutting or completely de-
stroying the surface. When water is
allowed to stand on 4 road the holes
and ruts rapidly increase in number
and size; Wagon after wagon sinks
deeper until the road finally becomes
utterly bad. and sometimes impasSa-
BILE. as frequently found in many parts
Of the country during the winter sea-
son.

lation of long wheat in the local pit, some

inclined to go cautiously for the pres

the strength in Paris was not , entirely ely

there is a good crop, but there is a scarei-
