The first rude shock to the prevail

was given In l774. when Priestley dis
covered In it the very active element.
oxygen. Two years later he added to
this the passive element. nitrogen, and
the two main constituents Of the In.
visible mir became captives Of science.
To these new elements the old Ideas
clung for a time. Oxygen was named
by its dlscoverer dephlogisticated ai-.
1t lacked phlogiston, the fancied fire
element. and sought with eager appe'
tlte In whatever Il touched. Nitrogen
was called phlogisticated air. 1t was
believed to be saturated with phloGls.
ton and therefore, fatal to fame. While
oxygen combined briskly with almost
oil the elements. nitrogen refused t.
combine in all except under great
provocation. Though intimately min
gled In the atmosphere. these elements
were as unlike In character as two
substances well could be.

OIL on . Clay Road.

An experiment for the purpose Of
testing the efficiency Of oil on q clay
road was recently made on a buck.
shot" road near Clarksdale Miss. The
buckshot Is a tough black clay and
q very poor road material. In the ex-
pertinent the road was frst shaped
with q road machine and then well
rolled with a five ton roller. Water
was then sprinkled on 1t to mould to-
gcthcr the small particles Of clay on
the surface. The road was allowed
to dry in the sun for several days,
when a layer OF coarse sand. one-quar-
ter inch In depth. was spread over the
surface. and another layer Of finer
sand placed on this. OIL was sprinkled
on this with an ordinary street sprink-
ler.and five days afterward the I've
ton roller was passed over II three
times. Further rolling was done few
days later. As the time OF year was
such that the temperature Of the air
was no, hot enough to dry out the more
fui,i part Of the oil ana harden the sur
face, the experiment was not the sue
cess expected. 1t was found that
the best time TO oil the road was in the
spring. when the surface Is hard. and
after the oil has been evenly distrib-
uted, to roll ii thoroughly. 1t was also
found necessary to apply the sand,
which was put on to roushen the sur
face, as the oil was readily absorbed
by the dry buckshot and did not run
at all

Of interest. He was among the first to
