ROADS AT EATON HALL.
English Estate Affords a Model In
Highway COnstructiOn.

The roads of Eaton Hall are the fin
est in England and probably the best
in the world. They We're laid out by
noted engineers, and macadam, gravel
and clay were used in their COnstruc-
ton. They range from 80 to 100 feet
in width and are so we'll drained that
water cannot stand upon the surface,
as the top is composed of macadam
rolled into n compact mass by the pres
sure of 90 ton machines operated by
steam power. One can go for miles
without seeing n loose stone the size
of a horse chestnut. Even in parts of
the estate given up to the game pre-
serves the highways are as good as
those directly around the hall itself.
After the system of roads was COM
plctcd invitations were sent to public
officials in all parts of the kingdom to
visit the estate with view of educat-
ing them in road building. The visit
ors came by the hundreds and were en-
tcrtaincd at the owners expense. An
nually people interested in roadmaking
visit Eaton Hall from various portions
of Europe.

Wide Yersus NarrOw Tires.

Colonel Il. f. Compton, who went
through the South African campaign
recently. states that he was profoundly
impressed by the alteration of the sur
face made by the wheels of the trac-
ton engines employed by the military
in wet weather. The width and diam
ctcr of the wheel for conveyance of
certain weights required careful CON
sidcration. To emphasize the fact that
the design of the wheel was most i'm
portant he observed that in South AT
rica they introduced very broad wheel
at the absolutely contrary to
the time honorcd practice of the Beers,
who used narrow whecls-and the re-
suit has been that the British had been
enabled to transport enormous loads
day after day for months together with
out hurting the surface, whereas two
or three passages of the Beers narrow
wheels destroyed the surface to such
an extent that the British could not
afterward use the same route.

HOxY to RenOXRtc Enra.

When furS become worn or SOilcd at
the neck. they may be renovated by
gently rubbing with cotton batting sat
uratcd with gasoline, which should not
be used In Il room that has artificial
heat or light. says The Ladies' Home
Journal. Axle grease, tar, paint and
pitch may be removed by rubbing first
with oil of turpcntine and then with
ether. Dark furS may be cleaned with
fine cedar or mahogany SawduSt which
has been heated in an oven. Alaska sa-
BILE, seal, electric seal, fox. etc, should
be beaten with n switch until free from
dust then laid with the fur side up
and the hot sawdust rubbed in. BE law
ish with the Sawdust and vigorous
with the rubbing. After this place the
garment upon feather pillows with the
furry side down and beat well until all
traces of the Saw,luSt have disappear
ed; then hang out in 4 shady place.
White furS may be cleaned in the same
way, using white cornmeal instead of
the Saw1uSt or. If only slightly SOled,
by rubbing well with magnesia in
cakes. Wet furs should never be dried
near the fire, but shaken and hung
away in Il cold room, then brushed.

CHEW FOOD THOROUGHLY.
How One Mny Fat i!ot Bread with
out Eenr of Dyspepsia.

1t Is n common thrg TO Lear persons
say that they cannot eat this or that
because it does not agree with them.
The chances are that they could eat it
with impunity if they would only learn
10 chew il. New bread and hot rolls are
two dclicacics in point. Few things
taste better, yet there are thousands Of
persons who will hO Il up their hands
in horror and declare that they are the
most indigcStblc of stuff.
Yet there is absolutely no reason why
this should be true. Stale bread, con
trary to the common belief. is not bit
more digcstiblc than frcSlt bread. But Il
slice of stale bread on beng broken
with the teeth resolves itself into more
Or less hard and gritty PARTICLES which
1t is almost impossible to swal'sw until
they are ~oftcncd by tie saliva. The
particles irritate the throat and th" Gul-
let until they are well mOiStCnCd. The
fact is therefore that man is absolutely
compelled to maSticatc stale bread be-
fore he swallows it. This act of course
partially digestS the bread and thus
makes it in fit state for digestion and
absorption farther on in the alimcntary
tract That is why stale bread appears
to be more digcstible than new bread.
New bread is soft, doughy or plastic,
and there appears to he no necessity to
soften it with saliva. hence 1t escapes
the preliminary digestive action. 1t is
in reality boltcd. and bolting accounts
for dyspepsia. Hot rolls can he enjoyed
for breakfast withou: any fear of dys-
pepsia so long as the bread is good and
so long as pains are taken to chew 1t
thoroughly.

MIKE Rond Surface Smooth.

In completing a roadway great care
should be taken not to leave depreS-
sionS on it's surface where water could
accumulate and settle. softening up
that particular place. The surface
should be as smooth and compact as
possible. The use of n harrow to finish
off and smooth the surface should not
be resorted to unless followed by 4
roller. With modern roadmakinS ma
chncry, such as any of the good road
traders which we now have, the soil
can be evenly distributed over the
whole surface of the road, leaving Il
small fall to the bitches without de-
pressions. Thorough drainage is the
essential Of good roadmaking.

GAIN BY GOOD ROADS.
The Value to the Farmer Cannot BE
Measured by Money.


A Statistician has estimated that If
only the worst places in the roads of
Minnesota could he repaired farmers
would be able to haul onc-third more
at load and to haul it in one-third
less time. Where it now costs So to
market thrcrfourthS of a ton it would
then cost but 81 Il ton, Il saving of half
HE expense.
Again it is estimated that If Texas
had good roads S2,1OO.OO0 would be
saved every year on the transportation
of her cotton crop-a sum that econom-
ically used would build thousands of
miles OF permanent highway.
Iiut it is not only when the farmer
markets his crop that he loses by bad
roads or gains by good ones. \ New
Jersey economist has expressed the
opinion that wherever good roads have
been built in that state land values
have risen fully 30 per cent.
1t is likely enough, for once this I'M
provemcnt has been made others are
pretty sure to follow - electric ears
come in; free mail delivery is sccu""l;
rich people establish country homes.
Eventually the isolated farm is linked
to the world by many commercial and
social ties.
The value of all this to the farmer
and his family cannot be measured by
money alone. But any one can esti-
mate how much it would be worth to
himself to live in close touch with hui
man interests rather than to dwell in
comparative seclusion on the off side
of Il mudhOlc.

How to Remove Ink From SILK.

Ink stains on silk may be removed IL
taken when quite fresh and covered
thickly with dry salt. The salt should
be shaken off as soon as 1t has become
diScolorcd and more applied. The spot
should be dampcned slightly before the
salt is applied the second time, and this
process should be repeated until the Ink
has all been taken up. Again, ink spots
from silk may be removed by saturat-
Ing with spirits of turpentine and let
ting it remain several hours. Finally
rub briSkly between the hands, and the
spot will disappear without injury to
either the color or the fabric.

In America icehouses have been
known for at least 200 years. They
were first very primitive affairs being
nothing more than deep cellars, the
flooring made of boards or stone, upon
which was placed layer of straw or
sawdust. The sides were lined with
boards set about foot from the wall,
and this space was filled in with saw
dust. tan bark or straw. A rough,
thatched roof completed the structure,
which was then tilled with ice. be-
tween the layers OF which tan bark or
sawdust was strewed.

they cleared out his whole shop, Every
