Brazil, concerning the effects of forest
dcnudation. Through the destruction
of trees in northern Brazil, the report
says, large states have been brought
to the verge Of ruin. In Rio Grande
de Norte and Ceara chronic drougnts
occur, causing famine and depopula-
tion in regions which were once rich
IL timbered and well watered. The
Rrazilians are beginning to call for the
scientific replanting Of their devastat-
ed forests.
The electrical treatment of sewage,
as tried by DR.. Rideal at Guilford,
England, seems to have proven SIM
pie, inexpensive and effective. A So
luton Of salt and water, or even ordi-
nary sea water, Is decomposed In a
special electrolyzer Of large surface
and using large volume of current,
and the so-called oxychloride solution
resulting Is added to the sewage in
quantity varying with circumstances.
Any kind Of sewage liquid may be
treated. The worst forms are readily
made as free from bacteria as drink
ing water, and raw sewage receiving
1Sh gallons Of solution per one thou
sand gallons showed reduction of or
ganisms from 23,2OO,OOO to $40 per
cubic centimeter in five hours, bacilli
allied to those of typhoid diminishing
from over one million to none.

Yes, woman, thou old mysogynist

such a woman! Brave and true, Ye-

sleek and fawning and false, stroking

Having spoken, he protrudes his up

stand out. He looks very fierce and bit

think, "Assuredly thou hast had some
cruel experience, my friend"
In a few moments, however, his face
reassumes its habitual expression of
complacency, and he says to me, Now,

AS TO GOOD ROADS
Something on an Always
Interesting .Ques-
ton

Those localities where good roads
have been built are becoming richer,
more prosperous and more thickly
settled. while those which do not
possess these advantages in transporta.
tion are either at standstill or are be-
coming poorer and more sparsely
settled. IF these conditions continue.
fruitful farms may be abandoned and
rich lands go to waste. Life on farm
often becomes. as a result of "bottom.
less roads" isolated and barren of 20.
cial enjoyments and pleasures and
country people In some communities
suffer such great disadvantages that
ambition is checked, energy weak
ened, and industry paralyzed.
Good roads, like good streets. make
habitation along them most desirable ;
they economtze time and force in
transportation Of products, reduce
wear and tear on horses, harness, and
vehicles, and enhance the market
value of real estate. They raise the
value of farm lands and farm products
and tend to beautifv the country
through which they pass; they facili-
tate rural mail delivery and are q po-
tent aid to education. religion and So
ciability. Charles Summer once said !:
The road and the schooInaster are
the most important agents in advanc-
ing civilization.
The difference between good and
bad roads is often equivalent to the
differences between profit and loss
Good roads have money value to
farmers az well as q political and
social value, and leaving out the con-
veuience, comfort, social and refined
influence which good roads always
enhance, and looking at them only
from the almighty dollar side,
they are found to pay handsome divi-
dends each year.
It is necessary that roads should be
hard. smooth, comparatively level,
and fit for .uss at all seasons of the
year; that they should be properly
located, or laid out on the ground,
90 their grades may be such that
animate or inanimate pc wer may be
applied upon them to the best advan-
taRe and without great loss of energy;
that they should be properly con-
structed, the ground we'll drained.
the roadbed graded. shaped and
relleo, and that they should be sur
faced with the best material procur.
able;. that they should be properly
or kept constantly in good
repair.
Many of our roads were originally
laid out without any attention to gen.
eral topography, and In most cases
followed the settlers path from cabin
to cabin. the pig TRAIL or ran along
the boundary lines of the farms re-
gardless OF grades and directions.
Most of them remain today where
they we're located years ago and where
untold labor, expense and energy have
been wasted in trying to haul over
them and erdeavorinR to improve
their deplorable condition.
The error is made by continuing to
follow these primitive paths with our
public highways. The right course is
either to call in an engineer and
throw the road around the end or
along the side of steep hills instead Of
continuing to go over them, or to
pull the road up on dry solid ground
instead Of splashing through the mud
and water of the creek or swamp. Far
more time and money have been
wasted IN trying to keep up q single
