Supervisors and Good Roads.

The agitation for road Improve
menu in New York State has already
gone owe a period OF twenty years,
and has been urged by various class
eS in the interest OF the bicycle, the
drivers OF the f~our-in-nand coaches,
and the users of automobiles, but
nothing OF a practical nature was
accomplished until State. Engineer
Bond called delegates from all the
boards of supervisors throughout the
State together in Albany III January,
1899, to consider the road question
from the supervisors point Of view.
These conventions have been six
in number, and the delegates have
changed each year, being ~represen-
tative men from each county who
have seriously considered the ques-
ton OF road Improvement End the
cost as it applied to their particular
locality. At the first convention
there were about seventy delegates;
at all Of the others there have been
from three hundred to our hundred
men, and these men, acting through
their executive committees, have aG-

policy for the construction AMI main

During the last four years the
delegates at these conventions have

State, and amend the constitution so
as to permit Of a $4,000, 0CG bond

ty, so that by the spending OF So
100000 a year the State can receive
equitable development during a peri
cd Of ten years. The steps at the
convention have been carefully taken
and approved, and reapproved from
year to year. In many parts of the
State the question of the bond issue

is understood, the people are not

Greater industrial efficiency is be-

ticulaTly by the distribution o. ener-
gy supplied by rivers and streams.
This is being especially felt in the
region extending from the Mediter-
ranean to the Alps. The degree to
which this energy may be multiplied
is indefinite, but with present KNOW
edge it is assumed that 100000

Explains the Milky Way.

Professor Earnard's recent photo
graph of the star clouds of the Milky
Way, made amid the clear air on the
summit Of Mount Wilson, must rank
among the most notable achievements
OF astronomy during the past year.
These photographs show with ex-
quisite beauty and perfection of de-
tail the intricate construction Of the
vast annuius of stars composing n
galaxy, and exceed almost everything
that even Professor Barnard has pre-
viously effected with his Photographic
telescopes. They may be said to re-
veal the very architecture" of the
heavens in their richest regions where
the starry multitudes are disposed,
not in a grand disorder, but with evil
dences. of a most complicated and
wonderful design. Every n of these
photographs affords hours Of the most
absorbingly interesting study to the
astronomer-study which they enable
him to perform seated at his desk
and freed from the discomforts of
long night watches in the observatory.

The Public Road Agitation.

The public road question Is as old
IS civilization. How to solve it has
pestered the mind of man ever since
the first wheeled vehicle was invent
ed and the necessity of communica-
ton appeared. Organized society has
faced the problem always. and no
where has it been successfully met
except in those countries where road
building has been recognized as
function of government. The people
OF the United States have suffered
more actual loss perhaps from bad
roads than any other or all causes,
If we compute the losses IN dollars
and cents. This says nothing OF the
5nysical and social ~discoaforts, the
drawbacks to progress and the him
trance to education and the spread
C the Christian religion. No other
civilized people would have tolerated
the. deplorabie conditions that we
have here half so long as our people
cave tolerated them, ard no other
Eeo0ie would have comp3dCently
viewed the prodigal use Of the pub
tic money FOR every other enterprise
while the government they sustained
went utterly to sleep as regards this
momentous question OF better roads.
TIE time has at last arrived when
something must be done, and the
awakening is here that must result
III great good to every department o.
American life. All over the country
tee demand is growing for national
aid to highway construction along
the line OF the BTownlow-! atime-
bill. States that have failed because
O. inability to build systematic roads
are eager to meet the general gov
eminent half way, and the moment
the policy is entered upon will be
the ushering moment of the greatest
era of prosperity and happiness the
country has ever known. The se1ti-
ment is abroad that Congressional
candidates will this year discuss the
subject with the people, and it is
not hard to see what will be the re-
suit. The question is believed to
nave gone beyond the point o. argu-
ment. The necessity for road i'm

elaboration. The method of reach

FISH FOUGHT TWO HOURS.
Land Locked Salmon Weighing "a
Pounds IS ounces-Beat a
Maine Record.


The taking of a record breaIins
fourteen pound thirteen ounce land
locked salmon by Edward Hyde. OF
Bath, Me-, was the feature Of a week
OF excellent fishing, writes the Kineo
(Me.) correspondent of the New York
Sun.
The fish was not only a record
breaker for the lake, but the largest
" taken in northern Maine inland
waters. Rangeley's best is a fourteen
FOUNDER, taken about 1897, and a thir-
teen FOUNDER, secured two years lat
er.
Mr.. Hyde started out at 4 a. m. to
do a little trolling and to whet his
appetite for the breakfast which he
proposed to catch. He padded OF OPP
posite his private camp alone in a
canoe. He mad barely got the trolling
line out its length when the strike
came, and it was not many seconds
before it was apparent that there was
a big fish at the other end.
A few minutes later the big fish
went into the air, fifty yards away,
and for q full hour from that time MI.
Hyde simply held on. Time and again
tee salmon left the water in savage,
determined leaps, but the tackle held
fast and a taut line kept the fish NOV
ing.
Then the pace began to tell and
twenty minutes later the salmon was
brought near enough to the canoe 20
give the angler heart palpitation. He
was prepared to see a big fish, but
rot the monster that was fighting
thirty feet away. Ten minutes more
CT battle and the task OF landing him
began.
At first Mr.. Hyde thought of the
landing net, but ne soon saw that TINS
would be useless. Then the possibill-
~ of shooting the fish presented It
saIf but was discarded. and finally, as
z last resort. Mr.. Hyde tired the hsa
by, forcing rushes and then made 1or
the sloping, sandy snore, grasped the
line, dropped the rod, dragged the
fish into the shallow water of the
beach and fell upon il bodily.
Two hours had elapsed since the
strike, and the final victory and the
struggle had also called for about an
Inc strength the angler possessed Tne
salmon was "a inches iong and was
seen by a number OF visitors as Il
hung in state or the cabin door, wnere
unfortunately, 1t was allowed to re-
main loo Iong bsfcre 1tcps were tax

Hawaiian Shrimp Eishinn

In fishing for fresh shrimp in Ha.
waii baskets are used that resemble
in shape the ~coaEscuttle bonnets @,
grandmotherz, says the Southern
Workmen. The shrimp live in noun
tain streams and here the rome
come to fish. Holding the basket IN
one hand and a short stick in the 9th
er, and moving in a crouching posi-,
ton through the water, they drive the
shrimp from under the rocks to some
places where ferns or r or
branches of trees overhang the Wa.
ter. Here the fsherwoman places
her basket under the leaves and lifts
them, when the shrimp fall into the
basket.

Eurs OF the Middle West.

Despite the general opinion that
most Of the wild animals that in
habited the Middle West a century
ago have become extinct as a result
OF the march OF civilization, the con-
trary is true, and thousands Of musk
rats, Skunks, raccoons, opossums,
foxes and civet cats, with occasional
minks and weasels are killed and
their pelts sold for sums that in the
aggregate would be a great surprise
TO the public not in touch with the
trapping trade. Not in years have
the Central Illinois trappers been so
active as this year.
One firm in Muscatine pays $4,000
eacn week for hides. There are many
firms scattered over Illinois which
do an equally large business, and it
is probably safe to say that during
the present season trappers will be
paid in Illinois alone the sun of $780,
900, while Iowa, Indiana and perhaps
several other States of the Middle
West all expend equally large sums
in this direction.
Inc majority OF the nlmaI Trap
ped in the Middle West>are the musk
rats, which have been the least at
traction for the trapper, as the pelts
bring only II to Is cents, while
skunks range from SO cents to $3.50,
according to size and condition; rae
coon from SO to $1.75, opossum from
25 to rs cents, red foxes from 81 to
SIS. Civet cats bring only 25 cents

Disinfectants and Deodorants.

] have frequently been obliged to
beat q nasty retreat from a house
piacarded for a contagious disease
because the mother was burning sui
pnur on the stove, as a d-isinfectant,
which, although it could not possibly
kill any germ, made the air suno-
eating to breathe, writes DR.. Her
bert c. Emerson in Good Housekeep-
ing. I have seen a woman using SUCH
q strong solution, supposed to be a
~oisinfectant, in scruDbing the wood
work Of q sickroou1, that she had ia
ken off all the paint down 20 the
the difference between a Gisinfectant
and q ~6eodoTant; while 2 disinfec-
tGnt kills germs, a Geordorant de-
stroys doors, and has no power to
kill germs. A deordorant is ome
times needed, but it must not &c
used with the idea that is a germi-
eide also. Charcoal is a good exam
pie OF a deodorant, and wnitewasn
has both deodori2ing and disinfect-
ing power. Many of the so-calied
d~isinfectants are very weak in germ
killing power, and are simply deo-
6orants. Cleanliness is the foremost
agency ia destroying disease germs.
10 ehc1ld be constantly practfced
from the beginning to the end OF an
illness. The mere act OF cleansing
destroys many germs, while SCRUB
Ding and hopping remove many
more. The processes are an Efficient
disinfectant in another way, because
they remove dirt in which germs may
find their nourislment and food Cor
growth. Good soap and water clean

busting should be done with great
care IN q sick room, and that aOOmi-
nations of brooms, the feather dust
