ROADS FOR MIDDLE WEST.
Principle of National Aid Has Many
Friends in Illinois and Neigh
boring States.

In many parts of the middle west there
is as great need of road improvement as
anywhere else in the world, and it is no
wonder that the people of this section
have gone into the good roads move
ment with enthusiasm.
A state good roads convention has
just been held at Springfield, H.. and,
although it is the busy season with the
farmers, there was an attendance of
about 200 delegates besides many Wis
TORS. Senator Latimer, of South Caro-
lima, was the principal speaker, and he
delivered an able and eloquent address.
Naturally he devoted considerable at
tention to the principle of national aid
as embodied in the bills introduced into
congress by himself and Col. Brownlow,
of Tennessee. The senator is strongly
should contribute some of it's surplus
revenues to aid the states in building
good roads, and he has many cogent rea-
sons to offer in support of that PROPOSE
ton. At the close of his address. Sena-
tor Latimer asked all present who
agreed with him to stand up, and all but
three or four sprang to their feet. There
was some opposition, however, led by
Prof. Baker, of the State university, and
protracted discussion followed in
which the professor came off decidedly
second best.
One of the great obstacles to road i'm
provement in some parts of the Missis-
sippi valley is the scarcity of material
for building roads. In large portions of
Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas and several
other states, there is neither stone nor
gravel All the material used in surfac-
ing hard roads has to be shipped in
which adds considerably to the expense.
But the bottomless mud roads of these
sections are such burden that people
are willing to tax themselves heavily to
secure relief. If the national aid plan
should be adopted, the next few years
will see an enormous improvement in
| the roads of the middle west.
Where there is good local material
considerable progress has already been
made. In Missouri there are hundreds
of miles of fine hard roads. The same
may be said of Minnesota. In some To-
calities excellent roads have been built
of mining Stag. Gravel is employed
where available, and in southern Hi
nois deposits of novaculite are drawn
upon and some very fine roads have been
constructed from this material. On the
whole, however, it must be said that
only beginning has been made, and the
agricultural industries of this section
are greatly hampered by the expense
and difficulty of getting farm products
| to market.

INVENTION AND INDUSTRY.

Municipality owned plants furnish two
thirds of the electric lighting in Great
Britain and only about five per cent. in
the United States.
The importation of raisins, which for
merly amounted to about 100000 box
es a year, has been reduced to almost
nothing by the California crop.
Immense quantities of sand equal to
that imported from Turkey especially
for glass makers have, according to the
Westminster Gazette, been discovered
not far from London.
The Umschau claims for the newly
invented process of milking cows by
electricity rubber caps being attached
to the udders) the advantage of superior
cleanliness, and adds that the cows more
readily yield the milk than when the
hands are used.
A machine has been invented which is
capable of splitting wood two feet long
and eighteen inches thick. 1t is run by
a three-horse-power gasoline engine and
consists of a huge knife which works
through the knottiest wood at the rate
of 60 strokes minute.
Steps are being taken to develop val
nable deposits of fullers' earth, near
Buelah, Pueblo county, and near Akron,
Washington county, in Colorado. The
few deposits of this substance already
located in the Centennial state are said
to be among the purest found anywhere
in the world.

ONE OF THE UTTERMOST.
Even Commercial Travellers Wero
Not Beyond the Reach of
Saving Grace.

Dan DAILY, the actor, who died recently,
whenever he was idle III New York had a
great habit of attending Salvation Army
meetings. He believed in the Salvation
Army, and he contributed literally to its
support. Sometimes, too, he had inter
esting things to tell about it, says the New
York Tribune.
One evening, rather late, Daily and a
commercial traveller entered the Fifth Ave
nue. hotel together. DAILY, with a nod to-
ward his companion, said:
My friend and L were at a meeting of
the army tonight. The captain, after his
address, passed through the audience,
questioning the people. Coming to my
friend, he said:
What is your business, SIR
81 am a commercial traveller, was the
answer.
And are you saved?'
"'Oh, I'm all right
"At this reply the captain, turning to
the congregation, shouted in loud voice:

saved. God can save to the uttermost' .

Grain for Cows on Pasture.

1t will pay to feed some grain to the

summer, except in the dryest months,

porarily increased. Some of the best
dairymen in the country are doing
this, though they are not getting their
money back for it in the summer time.
