CALL FOR NATiONALs ROAD.
An Appeal to Have Famous Highway
Rebuilt by the Government

An Appeal to Have Famous Highway
Rebuilt by the Government.
/ The National Good Roads associa-
I ton, with headquarters In st Louis.
has sent out the following appeal to
motorists, says the New York Amer
lean:
"The National Good Roads associa-
ton is powerful force for good. and
its work is accomplishing results in all
parts of the United States. It is en-
gagged in many things that will benefit
the people. One of the great schemes
it has in mind and which it has set
about to accomplish is the repair and
rebuilding of the great national road
across Maryland, Pennsylvania, West
Virginia, Ohio and Indiana.
"That memorable road was intended
to De one Of the highways between the
east and the west before railroads were
known. 1t was built at great expense,
costing the feueral government over
S7,OOO,OOO, and during the early days
was a famous highway over which
thousands travelled every week. When
railroads came into existence the ma
tional road was neglected, and today it
is only a skeleton Of what it once was
at Is proposed to rebuild it, and the
National Good Roads association has
undertaken to have it done by the gov
eminent. The length Of the road is
about 700 miles, and it can be rebuilt
for less than 100000. That is about
the cost Of one good battleship, and we
are building lots Of them. The appro-
priation of that sum to make this old
road across five states would do as
much good as the average battleship,
for not one such ship in ten will ever
get in a fight. Then when the old road
has been put in good shape to the Mis-
sissippi river it may be that the price
of about three other battleships will be
set aside to build the road to the Pa
cific coast.
zone first class continuous highway
across the continent would be a great
thing. Many a traveller would spend
two or three months going and coming
by team, bicycle, automobile or other
wise. 1t would be easy for the nation
to do thing like this.
"In 1906, 100000 Americans visited
Europe and for the privilege Of going
over the first class European roads
paid over $500OOO,OOO."

A Bill For Good Roads.

Representative William r. Hearst of
New York recently introduced a bill
appropriating $50,00O,000 toward the
building of good roads for the purpose
Of extending the postal service and
lessening the dependence of the agri-
cultural and Industrial interests on
railroads, says a Washington dispatch.
The plan proposed is that not more
than $1O,OO00O0 of the amount shall be
expended in any one year. When a
country road is built for distance of
ten miles or more the government is to
pay half the cost.

LITTLE GIRL CREMATED,
Burned to Death While Playing Around
Bonfire.

Duluth, July 25.--Little Annie
Fterst, the nine-year-old daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Fierst, was
burned to death a short distance from
her home at Chisholm while playing
around bonfire. Her little playmates
at neighbor's house had refused her
permission to play with them, so she
returned to her home, obtained some
matches and proceeded to have bon
fire Of her own. In placing some
branches on the pile, her dress be-
came ignited and instantly she was en-
veloped in flames. Screaming with
pain and terror she ran towards her
home, which only made matters worse.
She fingered several hours in intense
pain, finally becoming unconscious, in
which condition she expired. Her
body was frightfully burned from the

THE WAR ON DUST.
How Coal Tar Is Used ON the Swiss
Highways.


In ever progressive Switzerland there
Is an anti-dust league which is carry
ing on war against the principal fac
tors Of dust composition. The processes
under consideration are oiling, water
ing with deliquescent salts and tarring
It is said that the three processes have
given general satisfaction, but that the
tar is the most efficacious Of anything
heretofore tried.
For tarring the product used is a
coal tar, the product Of gas works. 1t
is black and viscous and its density
varies from 10 to 1.25. 1t can be ap-
piled hot or cold. Its boiling point
varies between 70 and so degrees; and
thereafter it is impossible to raise it
to a higher temperature. 1t is spread
during a warm and dry period, with
watering pots, after the road has been
thoroughly cleaned. After spreading
the tar is gently brushed, and no traffic
is allowed upon it for at least twenty
four hours. The tar most preferable is
the product from gas made by car
bureted water.
The French government, after four
years trial Of the tarring method, has
obtained satisfactory results fully JUS
tifying the expense Of from 2h to 3
cents per square yard. The annual
economy on the wear and tear is
found to be about . cents a square
yard and for watering i cent a square
yard, so that the process of tarring is
Of no expense, while it's benefits are
evident.
