GOOD SCHEME FOR GOOD ROADS.

State Senator Earle, of Michigan, at
one time connected with the department
of good roads inquiries at Washington as
an expert, has scheme which, if put into
practice, would soon bring the millen-
NAL dawn of good roads, says the Phila-
delphia North American, In explaining
his scheme he said:
First, would have the government
make good road maps--of each county in
the united States, showing all the public
highways. l would have bad roads print
cd in red, fairly good ones in blue and
the improved roads in black. These would
be published in pocket form and sold for
o cents each at all postoffices This
would in effect compel every farmer to
see to it that his road was improved, for
he would soon see the advantage of hav-
ing his farm located on one of the inn
proved roads.
Second, would levy tax of 50 cents
year on every vehicle in the land. This
alone would yield an annual revenue of
several millions. 1t would all the funds
necessary Tor the purpose. The tax would
be trifle and would be cheerfully paid
by most people so long as it was to be
devoted to the betterment of highways"
We don't know whether this scheme
will ever be put into operation, but we
commend the second part of it to the con-
sideration of our members of the Legis-
lature A vehicle tax in Anne Arunde-
would produce considerable revenue for
roads, and tax of this sort would reach
a large number of people who make great
use of the roads, but who contribute
absolutely nothing to their maintenance.

MOONS PHASES.
REDEMPTION OF PARTY PLEDGES.

From Maryland Republican.
The Democratic party in the Legisla-
ture has done much this week towards a
redemption Of the pledges of the last
Democratic State platform. 1t has pass
edto third reading in the Senate the
Public School Commission bill. The bill
as reported fayorably in the Senate and
ordered engrossed for a third readingpro-
yides for the appointment OF a commits
sion by the Governor. The promise OF
the platform in this regard is:
Owe accordingly recommend the pas
sage by the next Legislature of an act
providing for the appointment By the
GOcernOr of a commission of prominent
citizens, selected irrespective of their po-
litical views, from among those who are
personally interested in the improve
ment and efficiency of our public schools,
whose duty il shall be to examine into
their condition and management, and to
report what amendments OF our existing
law are necessary to reform whatever
shall be found defective in their admins
tration, and in the method of appoint
ment and tenure OF the commissioners.
Tile Senate will promptly pass this bill
and we believe the House will also; for we
do not believe that the Democratic ma
jority in the House, orany members OF it,
viii place themselves in opposition to
their party platform upon this exceeding
~ important matter.
The Senate has also passed to third
reading a Primary Election bill which
fully carries out the platform in this re-
gard, and further meets with general APP
prevail from all classes of Democrats.
On its second reading in the Senate
eighteen counties were excepted from its
provisions, but we are glad to say that
Anne Arundel was not one of them. We
trust the members of the House will fol-
low the lead of Senator Williams in this
matter and let the law apply to Anne
Arundel; for we believe that good pri-
mary election law will do much to inn
prove our politics and to unite our par
ty.
Progress is also being made on an oys-
ter bill designed to carry out the pledge
OF the party to make as thoroughly an
he had
Ii the Legislature passes these bills, as
we believe it will, the party will have
substantially redeemed the pledges of its
platform and will be in a position to en-
ter the campaign of 1908 with confidence
that the people of Maryland will contin-
ne it in control of the State.
1t would be well if some further amend
ments to the election law could be pass
ed designed TO still further insure the
control OF the State by those who are
best fitted to control it and who have
most interest in its being well governed,
but the party can well afford to stand
on the law as it is, particularly as there
SO much diversity of opinion as to what
amendments would best subserve the
purpose OF insuring the control of the
State by those best fitted to control it.

Total liabilities.

This is a showing upon which
all concerned may be congratulate
ed. 1t is showing that more than
justifes even the largest claims
that have been made on behalf of
the Royal Arcanum by its friends,
and it justifies, also, the mostcom-
plete confidence in the present ad-
ministra,ion of its affairs.
As everybody knows, this or
ganization, like all fraternal orders,
has had to encounter keen opposi-
ton on the part of certain other in
stitutions, but the record shows
that it has prospered in spite there
of. 1t has accomplished an enor-
nous amount of vitality important
and useful work, and what it has
done in the past is at once an earn
est and a guarantee of what may be
expected of it in time to come

particular. When we get to the point
where we have sanitary poultry houses
and yards we will have done much to
decrease the losses from diseases. both
contagious and non-contagious.
Are high scoring show birds good
layers? At least one poultry raiser
thinks not. In a letter to the Farm
ers' Review John Culbert. an Illinois
breeder Of Plymouth Rocks, says:
Last, November $4,000 I exhibited a
White Rock pullet. She won frst with
a score of 95h. AS Don as she came
home she started to lay. One month
later l took her to the poultry show
at Joliet. where she scored only
92h points. She got the extra
cuts on shape" Laying spoils
the shape Of pullets, 10 far as scoring
for premiums is concerned. l have
pullets that started in to lay at Az
months, and they are not fit to show.
Birds that score high do not make
good layers. as a rule" Coming from
a poultry fancier this is doubly i'm
portant. We have heard. it asserted
before that high scoring birds were
likely to prove poor egg producers, but
there has generally been little beside
assertion to back it. We hope to hear
from others on the same point.

New Bath Chair Hanson Cab.

A new species of recreation has just
made its appearance in Oxford, Eng
land. 1t takes the form of a kind Of
bath-chair hanson cab, being, indeed,
nothing more than a very comfortable
basket chair mounted upon two wheels,
with ball bearings and rubber tires.
This chair is fastened to the saddle
pillar Of a bicycle by means of q rigid
shaft, with a ball socket at the head. SO
that neither the. steering of the cycle
nor the leaning over Of the machine as
it turns a curve is affected. No doubt
the new conveyance will prove an ex-
cellent form of entertainment with
which the undergraduate may provide
his sisters or aunts when they visit Ok
ford. The cars are not appropriately
called 'rickshas," and the labor is
much lighter than might be expected.
for the coolie. Rather more hills than.
usual have to be walked, but the idea
has such vast possibilities-for the pur-
pose, say, of paying a round of after
DON calls, OF conveying fair burdens
to outlying districts of beauty and
amusement-that "rickshas' are de-
serving Of adoption in the country gem
orally, where, indeed, they are begin
ming to be used, and, in the London
suburbs where traffic is not too heavy.
They cannot possibly upset; they
travel more smoothly and faster than.
a carriage, and are not in the least IL
able to run away.

Country Boy squelches City Uncle.
He was a typical small boy, WHO
lived in a well-to-do town In the west
ern part Of the state, with pride in
his native home, and q vague idea that
city people considered all outsiders as
small potatoes, and few in a hill at
that. Now, when his mother brought
him to Milwaukee to visit her brother,
he held his head proudly and intended
to convey the idea that he and his
were Of some Importance. His uncle
took him to see the different big build
ings, including the Pabst theatef, the
library, postofice and the various
churches. One Sunday they yer seat
ed in ST. Pauls'. The mother turned
her head to take in the beauty of the
pictured windows with their pretty
colorings. and secretly wished her lot
had fallen in the city. but the boy. sat
bolt upright as though such surround
ings were very common to him. When
they reached home his uncle remark
