How We Should BnIld Roads.

The state OF Massachusetts, expends
every year half million dollars to con-
struct macadamized roads. 1t builds
100 miles per year. The cost averages
50, 200 per mile. The expense comes
against every inhabitant alike, including
those in the cities, although no roads are
made by the state in the incorporated
cities. In this way the city OF Boston
pays about half of the total expense of
all improved roads; and all the principal
highways throughout the commonwealth
are already macadamized First the
road bed is thrown up, rounded in the
centre and ditched at the sides. The
first layer of stone is in pieces less than
21a inches ard inches deep; the next
layer is less than one inch in diameter
and two inches deep; the third is top
screenings. Every course is sprinkled
and rolled, The turnpikes are 21 feet
wide. The state issues bonds that run
forty years and sell at premium.

Joseph Olwell of dwell Bros, the
Central Point orchardists, was in Jack
sonvillle, Tuesday. Speaking OF his re-
cent trip to New York, Mr.. dwell says
the Rogue River apples will continue to
have sale at top prices ia the best mar
kets in the world, New York taking the
Spitzenburgs, for Americans prefer red
apple, while London takes the Newtowns
the Europeans prcirrring the yellow APP
pie. In the great markets Of New York
city Mr.. dwell was able to see apples
from all sections OF the United States,
and to learn the preferences of buyers.
He found the Rogue River Spitzenburgs
and Newtowns not eqUaled by apples OF
those varieties from any other section
except Hood River, which produces as
good an apple as this valley, but which
does not yield the profit of Rogue River,
for it costs $50 an acre each season in
that valley for irrigation, and for spray
ing and cultivation fully as much as in
this valley. The bright color, @axen
polish and perfect shape, size and flavor
Of the Rogae River apples Mr.. dwell
found, made them sell in preference to
all other apples, and at much higher

An Interesting Study.

John Cradlebaugh has been cogitat
ing over the idea advanced by an East
ern professor that the study of women
ways and whims be added to the cuI
riculum of that institution, and tn
result is the following, which appear
in the Salem Journal:
Who would not study woman's ways,
Delightful as the lesson is
What charming books of sweet romance,
Where letters blue and black-eyed dance,
And every page is but a glance
Wherein Loves own confession is?
Who would not study every whim
About a book so beautiful,
To learn the things that we have missed
The language taught by foot or wrist,
Or tempting red lips duly kissed
By lover simply dutifu?
Who would not study If he could
The worlds divinest mystery?
What man could ever learn Just why
When he would laugh that she should cry,
Or she would smile when he would sigh
Contrarlest thing in history?
How could he ever hope TO learn
What all her moods and lenses are,
Unless, indeed, he tempted Fate
By asking her TO conjugate,
And read the scheme, perhaps too late,
On learning what expenses are?
Sweet books Of poesy and song,
Rare tones of contrarities,
Whose sentences are but look
That we must learn by hook or crook
And having learned them, kiss the book
Regardless of varieties.

THE ANGRY Tree.
Peculiar Antics Of This Curiosity a
Plant Life.

Peculiar Antics Of This Curiosity of
Plant Life.
There Is In the wilds Of northwestern
Idaho a species Of the acacia tree
which is entitled to be classed as one
Of the wondeRs Of plant life. 1t grows
to a height Of about eight feet and
when full grown closes its leaves to-
gether In coils each day at sunset and
curls its twigs to the shape of pigtails.
After the tree has settled itself thus
for a nights sleep, If touched the whole
thing win flutter as II agitated or i'm
patient at being disturbed. The oftener
the foliage Is molested the more vio-
lent becomes the shaking of the
branches, and at length the tree emits
a nauseating odor, which If inhaled for
a few moments causes violent, dizzy
headache.
The angry tree, as 1t has been named,
was discovered by travellers, who upon
making camp for the night placed one
end Of canvas covering over one of
the sensitive branches, using 1t for
support. Immediately the tree began to
sharply jerk its branches. The motion
continued, growing more nervous, until
at last the sickeniag odor which 1t
gave out drove the tired campers to a
more friendly location. Curiosity of
course prompted an investigation. One
OF the angry trees was dug up and
thrown, to one side Immediately upon
being removed from the ground the
tree opened its leaves, its twigs lost
their pigtails, and for something over
an hour and half the outraged
branches showed their indignation by
a series Of quakings, which grew
weaker as time passed, finally ceasing
altogether, when the foliage hung limp
and withered. The next morning the
tree was placed upright in the ground
again, little water was applied to Iae
roots, and very soon 1t resumed its
normal condition. Boston Globe.

listing an Income.

No one can use an income with true
economy who does not exert his best
judgment and put forth all the wis
dom he possesses to make 1t fulfill
the highest ends of which it is capa-
BILE in his peculiar circumstances. II
it does not make some lives better,
fuller and happier; If 1t does not de-
velop the body and educate the mind;
If 1t does not promote industry, hon
esty and good will; If, in fact, 1t does
nothing to elevate and improve man
kind, then waste and not economy is
shown In its management.

A Father,s Advice 70 Hls Son.

The Glacier man heard a father say to
his son: Don't be a kicker. The Good
Lord never made but one natural kick
er, indigenous to this country, which
He licensed and empowered to kick,
and that is the mules papa and my
son, you will always find the voice of
the kicker on par with that Of the pa
ternal ancestor OF the donkey. You can
hear it several miles farther, but it is
not go sweet-toned as the voice of the
nightingale The kicker, like his pro-
totype, is energetic only with bis mouth
and his heels, and he is always feminist
II it is spraying, he don't think the
benefit derived commensurate with the
trouble, labor and expense II it is ir-
rigation, there are numerousand vicious
kicks. The leaders in the irrigating
concern have pull, there is favoritism
shown to employees and consumers, they
will not be able to get the water down
in time any way, and will not be able to
keep it coming after it does start, and
many other kicks of like import. Boy,
when you meet kicker give him all the
road and half the gutter. To get him
started is worse than case of the
smallpox and more irritating than the
seven-years-itch. There are few of this
genus in Hood River and they are grow
ing beautifully less in number Exper-
ience is teaching some that the methods
of our successful horticulturists are cor
rect, that only by spraying can perfect
fruit be grown, and the grower who
raises only wormy, gnarly fruit can find
no sale at any price, The kickers, too,
will learn that the leaders in the irrigat-
ing scheme are working honestly and
faithfully to the very best interest OF
the patrons of the ditch. Every dollar
and every cent will be carefully expend-
and accounted for. So, sonny, grab your
hoe and agitate the soil in your berry
rows or the water will be down here be-
fore you are ready for it.

The case recently decided is that Of
Nathaniel l.. Ward, who made desert
land entry before Commissioner W. b.

ated in the eastern part of Klickitat, is
in the district controlled by the Walla
Walla land Office, but Mr.. Presby's
Office is not, and the local authorities
refused to accept the entry. The ruling
was appealed on the ground that the

A Grir.

what is grig y, asks correspond
ent who has been worried by the phrase
"as happy as grig." The grig shares
with Mark Tapley the honor of being
proverbially happy. But a lonely ad-
Jective does not define q substantive.
In Yorkshire, we are told, a grig is a
young child, happy, we may hope. In
Staffordshire 1t is bantam. But In
Dutch the "kriek" is cricket, or grass
hopper, really merry fowl. In Web
ster grig is the provincial English for
an eel. But we cannot accept an eel
as the embodiment of mirth, and we

bring to light certain matters known to

that economy can only be achieved by

EUROPE USING MORE SUGAR.

Experts on sugar market conditions
have a variety Of explanations for the
rise and fall Of sugar prices. They go
from the extremes which give all credit
to the inexorable laws of supply and
demand to placing all responsibility up
ON the manipulation OF predatory"
Trust. Despite the capacity OF the
Sugar Trust to manipulate the present
advance in the price Of sugar is largely
affected by reduced production and
increased consumption.
Some specialists claim that the in
crease In the consumption of sugar can
not possibly keep pace with production
and the cane sugar industry is bound
for long years Of blue Mondays. This
may be true but opposing specialists
are still able to produce figures to the
contrary and each year finds ready
market for all the cane product at fair
prices.
In connection with the increased con-
sumption OF sugar the journal de
Fabricants" publishes a comparative
table showing that in principal Euro
pean countries there has been a setady
increase in sugar consumption since
the Brussels convention went into eff
feet on September /, 1908. The figures
are given for each month from Sep
TENDER 1903 TO March 1904. Compare
sons made with the same months OF
the previous campaign" show a net
increased consumption of 451 .343 tons
or "a per cent; total Of 2,33i,95S tons
for the 10000 campaign against 1888
6l5 tons for 1902-03, The sugar con-
sumption in France for the respective
periods rose from 270,29s to 446,O52
tons. Germany used 675,5l9 tons in
10000 against 4S4,243 in 1902-03;
Austria Hungary. 3OO,474 tons against
246,142; Belgium 53,sO4 tons against
$4,000; United Kingdom, S0l,s77 tons
against $685. and Holland 1922 tons
against 44.143.
Reports from France and Germany
ir particular have stated that manu-.
facturers Of these countries planned an
extensive development Of preserving
industries to Offset the losses occa-
stoned by wiping out the bounty sys'
TEN. In other words they established
new channels to take care of their pro.
duct. This these countries appear ia
have accomplished with good effect and
the United Kingdom. Austria Hungary
Belgium and Holland have kept pace
with the movement. Beet sugar makes
up the greater part Of the product con-
sumed by these countries, but as beets
establish standards Of world markets
the prospect for cane can hardly bt
said to be overshadowed with dubious
clouds.
