oyster Shell Roads.

Driving, cycling and automooiiins
tourists who return from their out
.ngs on the South Jersey pixies this
summer are unusually enthusiastic In
heir praises of these shell ROADS, writes
the Philadelphia Press.
The process of constructing these
roads is of special interest because OF
its simplicity. There is no expense OF
digging out the roadbed and filling it
first with large stones and then with
a smoother top dressing as In the con-
struction of a macadamized road. The
shells are simply unloaded from the
boats (Which bring them in great guam
titles from nearby oyster fields to
Buena Vista wharf,, and are then
carted out along the roads until hOl-
low is found. or any spot that needs
repairing, and are then unceremon-
iously dumped and left without any
process of pounding or smoothing, until
broken up and leveled off by the pass
| ing carriages and farm wagons.
In constructing a shell road from the
beginning, load after load of the oyster
shells are dumped in an irregular bank
all along the centre of the roadway;
then with road scraper a bank OF
earth is thrown up along the edge tC
keep the shells from scattering. This
leaves a narrow, smooth space ovel
which the scraper has passed along
the edge of the bank of shells; and as
this is used for driving as long as the
weather is dry, 1t would seem that the
bank of sharp shells would never bt
| driven into smooth, white frmness. Blu
wait until there is heavy storm, ant
the smooth road at the side becomes :
mass of heavy mud and sand, thel
the rough shell bank is gladly mounted
and although it is decidedly rough q
first, the heavy country driving ant
: carting of farming produce 500
brushes the shells and forces them int
, the rain soaked soil beneath. A secon
: or third banking of the shells, scatter
ing them further over the sides Of tn
D roadbed each time,, with this process
repeated, forms a roadbed that is har
e and firm to the depth of foot or NOR
] and beautifully smooth and white.
. When these shell roads extend alon
] great stretches of pines, with eve
rows of cedar and fir trees lining til

OBSERVATION OF FORESTS
CONSERVATION OF WATER

idly.
THE whole question as to the for.
ests Of the Islands Is the preservation
and conservation OF the water supply
In no case did We fnd virgin forests
In which trees are being destroyed by
beetles and insects. but where .ho cattle
are allowed to range at the edgc OF rhe
forests thus killing the undcrgrowth. the
native trees are quickly affected and I'M
mediatcly attacked by insect enemies.
This can be readily seen along the edge
of cane fields. where forests have been
cleared and the trees are dying, while
further back in the virgin forests they
are sound and healthy.
80 much of the government lands
have been leased to the plantations and
ranchmen that they must themselves pro.
tect the forests, upon which their con-
slant supply of water depends. Tie gov
eminent can help in so far as it is able
to establish forest reserves and cncour
age planters and ranchers TO fence In
the slopes.
THE finest virgin forests seen in our
trip were those in Haleakela ABOVE Ho
namanu on Maui. and the m ignificent
forest belt In Olaa district surrounding
Hilo.
II think there is great need for a rang
er both on Maui and Hawaii where the
forestry rules and regulations should be
strictly enforced. There is a great deal
of land on Hawaii covered with aa aa
and pahoshoc flows which Is bcisig stosE
ed with timber trees and which Is sui.
able for neither agriculture or grazing
purposes. This should be Away, held as
forestry reserve.
For commercial purposes the forests
of Hawaii are not of very great value.
excepting the koa wood, which makes
fine furniture. There are other fine spe-
cies in kona, Maui and Hilo, which would
make magnificent furniture; the grain
is fine and the wood very hard, but the
trees are not In sufficient quantity to be
valuable commercially"
Mr. Griffith visited with Governor Dole
yesterday. and also spent considerable ,f
the day with Jared Smith and Wray
Taylor. Mr.. Griffith will deliver Il lecture

next Thursday evening at the request of

N RESERVATION % forests and
conservation OF water supply.
such are the recommendations
- the Hawaiian people 10 b.
made by T.. NJ. Griffith Of the Bureau
of Forestry at Washington. as n result
of his six weeks tour OF the forests of
Hawaii. Maui. Kauai and Molokai. He
will make a report of the results Of his
investigations TO Governor Dole and TO
Secretary Wilson of the Agricultural
Department before his. departure for
Japan next week. and is now busly en-
gagged in collecting the necessary data
for the purpose, to be added to his per
sonal observations. Mr.. Griffith be-
lieves a forestry burefu, with. rangers
for at least the forests of Maui and
Hawaii. 70 be an imperative necessity,
and it is not improbable that the De-
rartment of Agriculture may establish
such a bureau in the islands.
II was much surprised at the good
condition of the Hawaiian forests" said
Mr.. Griffith yesterday. II had no idea
that they were of such extent or so
well kept. Our tour of the Maui for
ests was made in company with II. p.
Baldwin, who has protected the forest
there for years.
1.-The most important matter which
should be called to the attention of the
Hawaiian planters and ranchmen is,
that they should not allow the cattle
to range along the headwaters of the
streams, for by so doing they succeed
in killing the underground and ferns,
and allow the heather grass to form in
mats upon the soil. This prevents the
seed from reaching the soil and germ
mating.
1T Is important also to prevent the
rim from running off too rapidly. The
bitches and fumes carry away only a
certain amount, and the excess Is lost
in the ocean, where If The forests are
protected, the water soaks through the
soil as If it were a sponge and goes
off gradually.
The planters should particularly
protect their forests at the headwaters.

ENTHUsIAsrIC MEETING.

Local 37, Buffers, Polishers and Brass Workers, had a large and en- thusiastic meeting at their hall, 11@ Grand street, last evening. Nine can didates were initiated, with several ap- plIcations for membership to the order. The Waterbury branch is In a flourish ing condition numerically and fnan- cially, which speaks well for the union. Up to the last; eight months an initia- ton in one evening of more than two candidates at one meeting was un- known, but our people see as individ- uals they are powerless to act or help themselves or others. The last freight handlers strike, if yon may call 1t such, fully illustrates the fact that if the men had been organized as they should possibly the results would be more favorable to the men. All buf- fers and polishers are cordially invited to call at our rooms, 11h Grand street, where all Information Is gladly given.

She can now thank her stars, for the dream came true and thousands upon thousands have been called to their last home. Now, the terrible catas- trophe which has taken place is cer- 5ainly an event which is appalling. But this lady having this particular dream. which unfortunately came true, and she laying it to drinking coffee, arOuses our curiosity regarding coffee. If it's true that coffee was the cause of her finding out what events were 10 take place we suggest that every one should drink coffee so that you can tell what's going to happen in the near future The kind we sell will make you dream because we have dreams ourselves once in while and invariably we strike the nail on the head.

AGENT ACCUSED.
Parsons Woman Thinks She Got the
Worst of Deal

Parsons, Sept. 15.-Mrs. l. E Graves.
of this city, has filed complaint with the
county attorney, charging Charles p.
Borders, of Lawrence. with obtaining
money under false Dretenses. Borders
is the state agent of the Equitable In
surance company and resides at Law
renee. Some time ago he wrote an in
surance policy for Mrs. Charlotte
Graves, widow of the late L. B. Graves
of this city, and collected a premium of
bout $4,000. Mrs Graves alleges that
the insurance agent used deceptive
measures in regard to the policy and
that the character of the policy is not
what was represented. Borders is also
charged with collecting $3.50 more than
the premium amounted to.
