mers, but injured orchards and fields
for q considerable distance on each
side of the road.
The result of olling the roads as soon
as the authorities got the right method
was more than to lay the dust. 1t was
found that not only was the road dust
less, but that the oil became incorpo-
rated with the surface and made q
good binding crust from one to three
inches deep.
The roads stood wear and water well,
and after a number of severe rain
storms that cut the unoiled macadam
roads to pieces the oiled roads were
found in as good condition as ever.
The practice In California extended till
now there are about 750 miles Of roads
and streets that have been oiled for
from one year upward.
The department Of agriculture recent
ly received preliminary report on
some experimental stretches of an oil
ed and tarred road In Jackson, Tenn.
This road had been treated only seven
months, but the results so far have
been very satisfactory. The section
treated with tar formed an almost as
phalt-llke surface that has stood the
wear we'll so far, has been waterproof
and Is said to be pleasant to drive over
and easy on the horses hoofs.
The oiled road In that section has
been almost equally satisfactory. The
same sort Of experiments have been
tried to a limited extent In Texas,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and other
states, and the reports have been uni
formly favorable where the work has
been properly done. The road has
to be cleaned and narrowed and well
rolled, and 1t Is best to apply the tar
or oil in hot dry weather. The road
has to be protected from traffic for
from ten hours to two days till the
dressing has had time to set and sink
in After that 1t is said to be almost
as satisfactory rs q paved street.
The oil that will be used In the Wash
ington work is rather heavy oil, with
I'LL DdcC. HC Atik luC
same as is used In ordinary paving.
The tar of course has to be applied hot,
but the oil can be put on cold. One
side of the road is treated at time
and then roped of for protection till
the surface has set.
California Is decidedly enthusiastic
over the success Of her Oiling work,
which has there passed beyond the ex-
detrimental stage. Washington will
have the benefit of her experience, too,
as there were some mistakes made In
the earlier stages of the work, and the
oil made n nasty mud that Injured
clothes and everything else 1t touched.
1t has been found now that this trouble
does not exist IL the road Is not used
too soon, and even the damage that 1t
was feared might result to automobile
tires has proved myth. In fact. 1t Is
said that the tires show longer life
on the oiled roads than they do where
the rubber is exposed to the sharp cut
ting grit of the old macadam surface.

THE GROWTH OF TROUT.
Age, Food and Temperature Seem to
Have No Bearing on Size.

Age, Food and Temperature Seem to
Have No Bearing on Size.
The Salvelinus fontinalis, which Is
currently but inaccurately called brook
trout, was supposed for many years
to be a small fish. Agassiz was
largely instrumental In exploding this
fallacy. 1t is not an uncommon thing
for an angler with ordinary luck to
get six or seven pound trout of this
variety. 1t Is known that trout may
grow to weigh eleven or twelve pounds.
There Is, however, great difficulty in
accounting for its variation In size.
In northeastern Canada there are
large streams and lakes in which only
fingerlings have ever been found. In
the immediate vicinity Of such waters
three and four pound trout are quite
common and seven and eight Founders
are not phenomenal. In all these wa
tiers crustacea do not abound; there are
no small fish Of any kind except small
trout All the fish are pure fly feeders.
At some places, it is true, frogs abound.
but taken as whole the difference In
food supply Is not an adequate ex-
PLANTATION for the difference in growth.
There IS no substantial difference In
the waters as to temperature, size.
origin and course. Climatic conditions
are the same. The small trout taken
to virgin lakes In which there are no
fish have sometimes grown to a great
size, have sometimes remained small
and sometimes have not thrlven. The
anglers who haunt these waters have
not yet found satisfactory explana-

OIL AND TAR ON ROAD
EXPERIMENTS TO BE MADE ON
WASHINGTON HIGHWAYS.

Cleaning, narrowing and Thorough
Rolling First Requirements - Hot,
Dry Weather Beat Time to Apply
Tar and Oil-.Good Results of Ofiing.
The war department and the depart
ment of agriculture are to experiment
with oil and tar on section Of Wash
ington roads. The work will be under
the direction Of the road Office of the
department of agriculture, and the
war department will furnish the roads,
says the Washington Star. Both oil
and tar will be tried, and probably q
mile of each will be treated. The
stretch used will be either the dusty
stretch of Seventeenth street below the
war department or part of the Poto-
mac boulevard or both.
The use of oil in road work Is new In
Washington, SO that the experiments
will be watched with some interest.
But there are other sections where the
use of oiled roads has been kept up for
years, and the practice has spread over
most of California, where the people
are quite enthusiastic over the results
In the past eight or nine years. The
work was commenced In 1893 in Cali

was tried at first In a limited way on

Long Word. or shortf

Which shall we prefer in speech and
writing? Almost everybody will vote
for the short word, and almost every
body will be voting for the best can
didate. The short words are usually
the strong words. They make up in
muscle and livellness what they lack in
size, says the Manchester Union. And
they are readily in the eyes of men
who have thoughts that they wish to
lodge In other minds. A man who
should run out into the street and yell
"Conhagratlon! Confagration! Con-

Honest, Hospitable and Brave, but
Obstinate and QuarreIsome.
The character of the goorals has
nothing In common with the humble
peasants Of the low country. In their
good qualities and faults they rather
resemble the proud noblemen of Po-
land. They are yiyacious, honest, hos
pitable and full Of pride, bravery and
chivalry, on which one may always
count But their defects are grave.
0bstlnacy and quarrels lead them Of
ten to bloody fights, the lack of thrift
is frequent among them and supersti-
lions haunt them at every step. They
love nature and In their songs praise
their gigantic peaks, spruce forests
and the clouds and rain. Thdr build
their houses facing Tatra, which they
constantly observe and consult about
weather conditions. A goOral cannot
live without his mountains, and If he
sometimes leaves them inconsistencies
will soon bring him back.
They are very religious, but their
Christian faith Is mixed with old su-
perstitions, and the Roman Catholic
rites are mingled with weird, often
very picturesque, usages which have
their origin in the old Slayonic pagan
ism. So, for instance, on St. Johns
night Sobotka Is celebrated by burning
bonfres on fields and hills and by
dancing, a festivity which in pagan
times was held on the summer solstice
In honor Of Sviatovit, the god Of sun.

CONSUMPTION CURES.
italian Physicians Experimenting
with Various Methods.


Consul Dunning of Milan gives an
interesting account of some expert
ments In the use of the Behrlng system
of vaccination as a cure for consump-
tlon which have been carried on by q
group Of Italian experts
Several oxen which had been vac.
cinated with the Behring treatment
were slaughtered with other oxen
which had been under inspection for
some months, while others were al.
lowed to continue in life In order to
further develop the effects Of the treat
ment. These animals were slaughtered
In Milan some time later under the d.
rection of the physicians interested In
the earlier experiments. OF four oxen
killed. three had been vaccinated with
the Behrlng treatment and afterWard
had the tuberculosis virus injected In.
to their veins. The autopsy, while 1t
did not show definite results, gave en-
enlargement to the investigators. The
OK which had not been vaccinated
showed tuberculous conditions In
marked degree, while the three which
had been subjected to the treatment
had remained immune and had resist
ed successfully, unless unknown c0ndi-
lions affected the result, the several In
jections of virus intended to test the
potency of the vaccination.

nounce that at least two Of the three
oxen showed results which seem to In
dictate that this method for treating tn,
berculosis Is at any rate well founded,

much remains to be done Other cattle

ments when the treatment they are un-

against the PersIans he noted two
cocks In a desperate battle. To slim

pointed out the bravery of birds. and,
having won his battle with the Per

LIVING ON AN ACRE.
How II Would Help the Man of Fam
lily and Little Money.

lily ana Little money
A family, with a modest house sur
rounded by an acre Of good SOIL even
where the work has to be performed
by members of the family who are oc-
cupied during the long hours of the
day at various occupations, will pro-
duce almost everything used in the
family. An acre of ground thoroughly
well cultivated, with q little chicken
yard as an adjunct, will reduce in a
very material way the expenses of the
family.
OF course acre lots are impossible in
side Of the city limits or even very
close to the city limits. The person
seeking so large a lot must go to a
considerable distance from the busi-
ness center, but the extension of cleo
trio lines enables even working people
to live at considerable distance from
their place of employment A man
who earns $3.50 to twice that sum
day and who has family consisting Of
a number of children often finds some
difficulty In bringing them up properly
and giving them the kind of an educa-
ton he would wish Such an invest
ment as this, saving rent of say $50
month and yielding eggs and all kinds
of vegetables as well as considerable
of the fruit that goes to make up the
daily ration of each member Of the
family, will make his struggle in life
much lighter. A man who has such
stake in the country will be in every
way better citizen than the one who
spends his weeks earnings as soon as
they come into his hand, if not week
before they are earned.
Varied occupation exceeds all other
processes in drawing ont whatever Of

acre in alienation with his other en-
ployment will bring him intellectual

gives him healthier body and whole
some surroundings in which to bring
