France is already endowed with
good roads, whereas In the United
States the automobile has come az an
instrument to awaken interest in the
subject of highway building, 1t is re-
garded by the French road engineer as
a destructive agent OF roads already
good. Moving with great velocity and
with closely adhering and sometimes
metalshod tires, the automobile
scrapes the fine, hard surfaces like a
file, surfaces which would resist years
Of ordinary wagon traffic.
To combat these destructive influ-
ences many of the French engineers
employ the tarring process. which aids
powerfully to prevent the disintegra-
ton caused by traffic and which, un-
less arrested, makes the dust nuis-
ance acute.
It has settled down to positive con-
viction in France that hot tar applica-
tions are valuable in proportion to the
excellence of the surfaces upon which
they are laid. When well done the
tarring gives the effect of an asphalt
pavement and the foothold on mac
adamized surface Is, Of course, much
better than on asphalt. In previous

Where did you expect to be-"
What month Is this?" was the next
question Smith put. The company
gazed at him in amaZement.
"You look sane enough" was the re-
ply, "but you, ask idiotic questions.
This Is December. Would you like
to have 1t altered?"
Half a year had elapsed since Smith
closed his eyes in the California train.
In that time he had crossed half the
globe. When he told his story his
audience was convinced Of his insani-
ty. When he asked them for money
to travel to the coast, he got laughter
for his pains. So he tramped to Sgd
ney.
In the capital he looked up the la
Dor council and narrated his expert
ence to union men. They investigated
and found he was what he represented
himself to be. They arranged for his
return to America, securing passage
for him on the Siberia.
The first letter Smith received from
his home at Los Angeles contained
news of the death Of his wife.

Six months passed as a single night,

organizer Of the American Federation

arrived in this city on the liner ST.
IBERIA, says the San Francisco CORE
spondent Of the Detroit News.
One night last June Smith dropped
to sleep in a railway car on the "owl
train" en- route from Los Angeles to
San Francisco. The next morning, as
he thought. he awoke in a strange
room. Rubbing his eyes, he gazed
about him. It was a sordid room, un-
like any he was accustomed to inhab-
it. He arose and lifted the curtain.
The country he looked on was unlike
anything he had seen in California.
Descending the stairs he found him
self among people as unfamiliar as
his surroundings. They talked Eng
lish, but with a foreign accent.

HOT TAR FOR HIGHWAYS

The traffic over this boulevard Is
intense and consists largely of auto
mobiles moving at their highest speed.
After two years wear no more dust
Is observable than would be the case
with an ordinary asphalt pavement re-
ceiving the traffic of innumerable un-
paved streets. The surface Is intact
and the sides, where washing gener-
ally occurs, look as fresh and clean
after rain as an asphalt pavement.
II Is doubtful whether anything short

HerO'S 8O-Year-Old Mother
Works as Department Clerk

At the age of 80, Mrs Ann e. Grid
ley, mother of the famous captain to
whom Admiral Dewey gave the order,
"You may begin firing when you get
ready, Gridley," and grandmother of
Lieut.. John p. V. Gridley, killed two
years ago by the explosion on the bat
tleship Missouri, is regularly at work
as clerk in the land office, a sub
division of the department of the in
terror, at Washington.
Mrs. Gridley has worked for the gov.
ernment, almost continuously. for
thirty years. Her salary is 5000
year.
Mrs. Gridley came to Washington
from Michigan shortly after the war.
Her husband was Frank Gridley of
Hillsdale, Mich. He had been en-
gagged In mercantile pursuits before
the war, but he became confirmed
invalid and Mrs. Gridley sought EN-.
ployment and supported both for many
years.
She has one son, Lucius E. Gridley.
Tor years an employe of the treasury
department, with. whom she lives.
Mrs. Gridley has a pension of $40
a month, granted her on account Of
her services as nurse during the civil
war. President Roosevelt has taken
a personal interest in Mrs. Gridley.
and has recommended that congress
pass a bill increasing her pension to
500 month, which would enable her
to resign from Office and take a few
years rest.
The prize money to which Cant,
Gridley was entitled as a result of the
captures in Manila bay, amounting to
nearly $4,000, went, with the insur.
ance and pension, to his widow. who
resides in Erie, Pa. The latter also
received the insurance, etc., after the
death OF her son, the young lieutenant
who was killed on the Missouri.

type of fertilizer was needed for q
given crop.
Instead of purchasing manures from
New York and Philadelphia for fertil.
izing sweet potato ground, as had been
the custom, the station advised COM
bination Of various fertilizers as like
ly to give the precise food the sweet
potato needed to bring about the most
satisfactory results. More than 10000
acres Of ground in New Jersey are
given up to the cultivation Of the
sweet potato, and the cost of produc-
tion has thus been lessened by from
SIS to $40 per acre, making an annual
saving Of nearly or quite 100000.
In this station, as in many other
stations, the information given the
farmers in the way of methods of pre-
venting insect pests results in saw
ing Of thousands of dollars a year.
Without the aid of the stations, orch
ards and vegetable tracts as well, in
deed, in some cases entire field crop
areas would be destroyed. 1t Is this
constant searching for the negative
advantages, so to call them, that
marks one Of the most significant func
tions of the stations.

SAVE MONEY FOR FARMERS

Elaborate tests have been made at
many Of the stations, particularly in
the East and the South, in order to
determine the value of the worthless
ness of soil fertilizers, says the Amer
lean Illustrated Magazine. While the
use of bacteria for inoculation may
ultimately do away with all need Of
fertilization, yet large amounts are
still spent upon commercial fertilizers,
and it will probably be some time be
fore they shall be all abandoned. In
fact, something like $50,000,000 is an
nually paid out by the farmers of the
United States for fertilizers.
1t is unquestionably true that much
fraud has been practiced upon the
farmers in this direction. In New Jer-
sey the station showed the farmers
that by clubbing together and purchas-
ing the raw material Of which the fer.
tilizers are composed they could save
from 25 to As per cent. The estimated
saving in cost to the farmers Of the
state by this one feature alone Is
from $751; 900 to 100000 per year. This
station has also demonstrated the
special food needs of certain plants,
showing the farmer what particular

HUMOR IN JOURNALISM.

Next to a million dollars a hearty
laugh is as pleasant thing as one can
have. Everybody really wants to
laugh. No man and no newspaper can
be really great without a sense of
humor The Chicago Record Herald
regards the promoting of smiles and
laughter as part of the legitimate
mission of the press. For years the
alternating Currents" column of 5.
+. kiser. in that paper has been a
daily delight to its readers. The car
toons of Ralph Wilder on the first
page also are designed to make peo-
pie laugh-and to make them think
as well. In fact, the humor of the
Reccrd-Herald, like its news columns,
is always clean and kindly as well as
amusing and entertaining. 1t affords
a striking example of the right way
tc tell the truth laughing"

A BETTER WATER SUPPLY.

While progress is crowding upon
Pepdlcton with numberless questions
for solution, the East Oregonian be-
leves that the greatest and most vital
issue now before the people of Pen
dleton is to get more water, better
water and an unfailing supply Of
water fer the city, for all time to
come.
The only way to do this is to tap
the Umatilla river high up toward the
head and by pipe lines convey the
supply to the city. This would re-
quire head-gate or intake, and 25
or 20 miles of pipe line, but that
would end the question for all time.
The supply secured from this source
would be ample, fresh, pure and un-
falling through all the seasons.
In no other way can the city secure
a supply of water which will be GER
tain. Any pumping proposition is
costly and uncertain. No matter how
good the pumping plant may be it is
a tedious and costly means of supply
ing the city and as population grows
the cost of the pumping is certain to
increase in proportion.
The cost of operating the pumping
plant for the present water supply Is
about $4,000 per year. or enough to
pay interest on gravity system cost
ing 100000. The wear and depreci-
alton Of machinery is not included in
this estimate of $4,000, hut it simply
provides for the actual running ex-
penses. The machinery must be re-
placed and replenished as 1t wears
out and the demands of the city in
crease. and with all this expense, the
water supply is not satisfactory. 1t
is not as good as Pendleton should
have and it will be impossible to Sc
cure any greater supply from the pres
ent sources uSeu Wy hHt Iiey'
The logical and economical thing to
do, is TO secure a water right high up
on the umatilla river, where 1t car
now be secured within reasonable
cost. Soon every available source will
be corncred by somebody and the city
will have to pay an enormous price
for an intake location. The time to
secure this location is now while nu-
merous locations are available.
Az the city grows year by year this
question becomes more and more vi
tai. Los Angeles has just been forced
to buy a high priced water supply 24o
miles from the city The life Of the
city depended upon a larger and bet
ter supply and the city was forced to
secure it at the cost of several mil
lion dollars.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-12-13

Pendleton cannot afford to delay in
this vital matter This is to be a city
us long as oregon is on the map of
the world. Population is certain to
increase. Pendleton has not yet be-
gun to grow. She has provided sewer
facilities for a population of 10000
but she has water supply which Is
really and truly inadequate to the
needs Of the present population in the
dry season when irrigation is neces-
sary.
This is a task for the Commercial
association to undertake. 1t should
cooperate with the city. 1t should
investigate every possible source of
supply and urge this movement with
all its power and influence.
