GOOD ROADS.

Referring again to what The Her
aid and News said in Tuesdays paper
in regard to the building of the road
from Ncwbcrry to the steel bridge, it
should have been stated that the citi-
zcns along the road from Ncwbcrry
are willing to furnish four horse
teams to haul gravel, or do whatever
may be necessary at cost in order TO
get the road worked. This, it seems
to us, should be matter that might
have the attention of the Chamber OF
Commerce, and this body might be
able to get the supervisor and the
people along the road, who are so anx-
ious to have it worked, together, and
with the cooperation Of those citiz-
ems in the city, who arc interested,
this road could be put in first class
condition at very small cost.
1t will be remembered that abuo,
four years ago Superintendent Schum-
pert put his chain gang on the road
between Ncwbcrry and Longshorcs
and gravclcd those sections that need
ed it, and that road has had no work
since and is still one Of the best in the
county. Permanent work is the work
that pays on the public roads, and
the chaingang should be put on no
other.
In this connection We would like
to call attention to an article in this
paper headed, "The value of good
roads," and it refers largely to the
roads around Charlotte in Mecklen-
burg county. Certainly any county
will have advantage over other coun-
ties if the roads arc what they ought
to be.
We have no apology to make for
constantly calling attention to the
necessity and Importance Of good
roads, because we are firmly convin-
ced that this is the subject which
should have the best attention and
the best thought Of the people of any
community and that investment in
good roads, whether by taxation or
otherwise, is the best investment that
tho people of any community can
make.
Since writing the above we have
had some conversation with citizens,
who live along this road and they
say II the town will cooperate with
them they will willingly furnish their
teams and wagons for the hauling of
gravel and other work, that may be
necessary t." biuld this road from New
berry I" the steel bridge. free of
charge. This seems Il fair propositior
and we respectfully refer it to tn,
Chamber of Commerce, provided thai
body Is ready for work of this kind
which is certainly for the benefit OF
the community.

AS TO THE FAIR.

The esteemed Ncwbcrry Observer
asks what were the extortions, inde-
cencies, impositions and brutality re-
fcrrcd TO by us az connected with the
recent state fnir.
Everything was high-priccd; in
some eases doubled and treblcl The
hotels charged $l.25 for cot in a
hall. These were TIE cxtortions.
There were NO private convcnicnccs
available on the grounds. This was an
indeccncy.
Nobody was allowed to get out OF
the fair grounds enclosure without 10
cents to the street ear company,
whether he wanted to ride back to
town on car or not. This was an i'm
position
Any who tried to get out of the
street car enclosure, even after pay,
ing the 10 cents, was threatened with
personal assault by the brutal gate
keepers. This was brutality.

CHINA GETS NO RAILROADS
Not Benefited in That Respect by
the Japan-Russia
War.

After the war is over China finds
herself in status quo as far as rail-
roads go. The war is credited with
little influence in producing the prac-
teal deadlock in railway construction
now obtaining in the celestial empire.
An adequate railroad system would be
wonder worker, so great are it's pos
sibilities, but while the Chinese ap-
preciate the need of some railroading
to supplement the work of thtir can
ais and coolies, they have Nc realiza-
ton Of the development of a country
by railroads. The amount of goods
transported by coolies and in northern
China by carts is almost beyond be-
lief In the interior of the greater por-
ton of the country coolies and canals
carry all the freight. What this means
can be understood fairly when it is
known that there is practically no
railroad service at Rll in the more
populous and richest parts of an en-
pire of 400,000,0OO people or more.
Most of the roads are scarcely worthy
the name. In the northern provinces
the traffic in carts of a rough sort
dominates the entire movement of
goods to the seaboard. When water
ways are frozen a great part of the
year this is of necessity the case. 1t
is in such regions that the first hold
Of the railroads has come. When the
empire is served at all it is served by
waterways. Along the Chinese coast
there is a series of navigable rivers
coming down from the interior, a
series which has few equals the world
over. From the Yalu and Pei-Ho at
the north to West river, passing
through Canton in the south, these
rivers seem to be formed to reach in
land from the coast, connecting not
only the coast cities with the interior
Cities but the interior cities with each
other by way of the coast as well.
About midway between the north and
south the great Yangtse reaches far
into the interior, navigable almost to
the western border of the empire. and
by its tributaries offering still further
connections with interior points.
These streams are supplemented by
canals, large and small until the whole
Yangtse and Yellow river plains are q
vast network of waterways designed
originally largely for irrigation and
now used also for transportation

IN THE LEAVES OF PLANTS
Beauty and Fragrance Of Infinite va
riety in the Myriad
Forms

The wonderful variety in the shape
of leaves is among the chief sources
of beauty in the world of plants, says
the London Spectator. They vary
from the simple" egg-shaped leaf OF
the laurel or the india rubber plant
to the intricate and exquisite cut
ting" seen in those CT the maiden-hair
fern, the yellow briar-rose, the acan-
thus, or the fig. The cutting in the
different species of parsley is among
the most elaborate of all; but 1t would
be difficult indeed to attempt to say
which is the most beautiful in form
The wild geraniums are as elaborated
as the parsleys. In some foreign
plants the leaf has the brilliant hue
commonly enjoyed only by flowers, the
poinsettias showing this in perfection
with their pure vermiliOn leaves at the
top of the stem. In what are known
to gardeners as foliage plants,' main
1y from the tropical and subtropical
regions, scheme of color is given as
rule, by the contrast in tint of the
ribs and veins of the leaves with the
tissues filling in the network SO formed.
Milky white, bright yellow, crimson,
or red usually marks the framework of
the leaf, while the filling" is dark
green In other plants this scheme of
ornament is reversed.
Scents and perfumes, not less dell
cious than those distilled from flow
ers and blossoms, are often given out
by leaves. There are those who pro-
fess TO detect purer and more deli
cate odor in these leaf-scents than in
the perfume of flowers; and though
this is a matter of personal taste and
sensation, there is some reason to
agree with this refinement of the
sense of smell. The odor of the lemon
plant, or of the leaves of musk, and,
above all, the perfume of the sweet
briar leaves, are among the most
"clean" and refreshing in all the cate
CORY of sweet scents.

MILK PAIL FOR SETTING CREAM.

and colder water will raise the cream
milk in cellar near our well, changing
the water at each milking in
hottest weather, but in cooler wealth
er, 1t may be set on the back porch
or any convenient place where it
may not freeze. We prefer to have
our COW fresh in September, and make
winter butter, and with this plan can
have butter equally as good as in sum-
mer. We have two creamers for the
first flush of milk, then use only one
later. The milk is strained directly
into the can and set in cold water to
the depth of milk, with enough water,
so AS to cool the milk. The cream
is raised in IL hours. Care must be
taken when drawing off the skim milk,
for the force is considerable of a
full can. Draw of until the cream
begins to show, boiling the cork TO
lessen the rapid flowing and stop the
cream. Shake the can until the
cream is all loosensd and pour in a
Jar to be set in col place where it
may keep sweet, until there is enough
for churning We churn twice a
week usually. This cool, sweet cream
is delicious for coffee, cereals, fruit or
ice cream.
The cream Jar should be covered
with a ventilated cover and stirred
whenever new creamIis added. When
ready to churn bring the jar into a
warmer room to riIen, or thicken,
bringing it to- temperature Of 70 de-
grees in summer and 80 degrees in
winter, and allowing it to stand sew
eral hours, until it is thick or loppered,
stirring often. Churrl at about 70 de-
grees in any good chlrn. We use a
dash churn, rinsing Town with cold
water, or tempered according to the
season. Wash butter in two or three
waters; salt, work lightly and set
away to cool and dissolve salt, for
an hour or so, then work thoroughly
until the milk and brine are worked
out and butter looks Ven in texture,
but lot oily; good tuttG should break.
We make in pound nils and cover
with parchment paper. Of course every
care is used to have areful mixers,
clean utensils and pue water and
salt, and our butter 3 as good as
creamery butter. We prefer it. On
no account would we return to the
pan or crock system If our grand
mothers. The quantityof cream will
vary with the amount # milk or the
family demand. We use it freely the
year around, and yet supply our table
with butter and good mix. We found
a demand for buttermilE near a city.
and allowed more milk 70 go in cream
for that purpose. The skim-milk
soured made fine cottage cheese for
sale or home use, thus making the
value of one cows milk very remu-
nerative, as well as a comfort to
the home.
