was (nstalled at Spalding, but is now
the property of the oregon Historical
society at Portland, will be secured
and exhibited on a float in the parade
and at the grounds during the week.
A large collection of the relics of the
early settlement Of the country dating
from the first Indians to the present
time are being secured and will be-
come a part of the interesting exhibit.
Chief George Moses, of the Nez
Perez tribe, has assured the officers
of the fair association that he will
bring a large number OF the Nez Perez
braves to Lewiston on the Saturday
proceeding the opening of the fair and
will establish headquarters on the
grounds. Friday of the fair has been

William Lane, living at south of

that there is nothing to equal this
remedy for curing backache and KID

and "buckshot." In such localities
traffic is absolutely impossible during
the wet season, as the wheels of heavy
vehicles will sink to the hub. In order
to overcome this difficulty the office Of
public roads undertook an investiga-
ton of the matter. Special expert
ments were carried on in the labora-
tory to see what could be done in the
way of burning or clinkering these
clays so as not only to destroy their
plastic qualities, but also 50 far as
possible to form hard, bricklike Jumps
which should be capable of sustaining
traffic. Samples of the material We're
sent from the Yazoo district in Missis-
sippi to the laboratory, and the ciinker-
ing point of the clay was found to be
sufficiently low to indicate that simple
burning of the lumpy clays upon the
road surface by means of open wood
fires would accomplish the desired re-
suit. Following these laboratory ex-
periments it was decided to make ex-
periments on road and it can be stat
ed that this experimental road is prov
ing highly satisfactory
Gumbo clay is black owing to the
high percentage of organic or vegeta-
BILE matter it contains. 1t Is particu-
larly sticky in it's nature and is almost
wholly free from sand an9 grit. After
it has been burned, however. the plas-
ticity is entirely destroyed and a light
clinker is formed which, though not
particularly hard, when pulverized
forms a smooth surface and seems to
wear well. 1t should be understood
that not all of the clay out OF which
the road is to be constructed is to be
clinkered. but only sufficient amount
should be rendered nonplastic to neu-
traliZe the too sticky character of the
native clay Fortunately the gumbo
district is plentifully covered with
heavy timber. thus affording an abun-
dance of fuel
While the only experimental burnt
clay road constructed by the office was
in Mississippi, the same methods
might be applied with equally good re-
suits In the sections of the prairie
states that have 10 other material
available for road building.
Good sound wood, as dry and well
seasoned as 1t is possible to procure,
should be provided before beginning
the work and stacked at convenient in
tervals along the side of the road.
About one cord of wood has been
found necessary for eight linear feet

wood may be cut either to four. eight
or twelve foot lengths. Brushwood. IL

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

Appeal to Have Famous Highway
Rebuilt by the Government.
The National Good Roads associa-
ton, with headquarters in st. Louis.
has sent out the following appeal to
motorists, says the New York Ameri-
can:
..The National Good Roads associa-
ton is a powerful force for good, and
its work is accomplishing results in all
parts of the United States. 1t is en-
gagged In many things that will bene-
fit the people. One Of the great
schemes. it has in mind and which 1t
has set about to accomplish is the re-
pair and rebuilding of the great ma
tional road across Maryland, Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia, Ohio and Indi-
ana.
"That memorable road was intended
to be one of the highways between the
east aud the west before railroads were
known. 1t was built at great expense,
costing the federal government over
$7,000,O00, 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.
'It is proposed to rebuild 1t, and the
National Good Roads association has
undertaken to have it done by the gov
ernment. The length of the road is
about 100 miles, and it can be rebuilt
for less than S7,OOO,O0O 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 batfleships will be
set aside to build the road to the Pa
cific coast
Zone first class continuous highway
across the continent would be great
thing. Many traveller would spend
two or three months going and com
ing by team, bicycle. automobile OF
otherwise. 1t would be easy for tht
nation to do q thing like this.
..In 1905 10000 Americans visitet
Europe and for the privilege of goin,
over the first class European roads pait
over $500. .OOO, ,OOO.''

Rural Delivery nIotes

the very few women rural route car
riers in Indiana. She is Miss Pearl
Lane, daughter OF John Lane.
One rural free delivery carrier in Lit
tlestown, Pa, recently found in the
pay for unstamped letters deposited
with them. When the weather is cold
and the sleet bears in. the coins freeze
to the bottom of the boxes. The weary
carriers now want Uncle Sam to pro-
hibit this method of paying postage.
George Frock, carrier for route No. 6
at Hale, Mo-, has purchased IN auto
mobile, which he will use for deliver
ing his daily mail. This is in keeping
with the great progressive age in
which we are living all right, but 1t
still remains a question whether an
automobile can be used successfully on
the winter roads in the section of Hale.

OIL IN ROAD WORK.
EXPERT BELIEVES 1T EXCELLENT FOR
HARDENING SANDY HIGHWAYS.

Cost Is About One-third That Of
Macadam, or $1,000 Per Mile, Says
Kansas Professor-several Practical
Tests Made.
"Roadmaking with oil believe to
be commercial success, which will In
time be generally adopted in improv-
ing the sandy roads of the state"
This is the opinion Professor Albert
Dickens Of the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college, the man who for the past
year has been assigned to the work Of
expending the $4,000 appropriated by
the last legislature for the purpose of
experimenting in oil roadmaking, gave
the Topeka Journal.
THE cost Of oiling a sandy road"
said Professor Dickens while the guest
of +. D. Coburn, secretary Of the state
board Of agriculture, will be about
$1,000 a mile. Some roads will cost
more than others. This is only about
one-third the cost Of macadam and
where stone is not plentiful is much
less than a third.
I've have constructed oil roadways
in four different parts of the state.
Our most extensive experiment was
near Garden City, where we oiled
little over mile of road. The sandy
soil absorbed vast quantities Of oil.
Four carloads were put into the road
way with sprinkling cart. At Hutch
inson we made nearly mile of oil
road, and we built short stretches at
Manhattan and Maple Hill.
Whether the oil in the roadways
will have to be renewed remains to be
seen. OF course there are certain por-
will pass off into the air. But we use
for this oiling only the reavy residuum
oil left after the kerosene and gasoline
have been extracted. This oil is thick
and heavy and works better than thin
oil.
'Up at Manhattan the people who
own fast horses were SO well pleased
with the oil road that they have oiled
the race track and claim that it makes
their track one of the best in the state.
"Out at Garden City, where the sand
is probably as heavy as any place In
the state, the oil experiments are
watched with the greatest interest.
The whole of western Kansas will be
benefited greatly If the oil road comes
into general use. There is rich
farming country tributary to Garden
City, which is at times almost cut off
from the town because of the heavy
sand in the roads. The roads are so
bad that a horse cannot haul more
than ten bushels of wheat at load.
'The farmers living near Garden
City and the merchants in the town
are talking Of oiling the main roads
leading to this tributary country, so
that the farmers can come into town
regardless Of the sand.
'We have found that narrow tired
wagons cut up the road badly after it
has been oiled. while the wide tired
wagons tend to make it more solid and
firm. This is of course true to a great
extent of the effect Of the tires on ordi-
nary roads,"
1t is likely that the next legislature
will be asked to continue the appropri-
alton for oil road experiments in order
that tests may be made in other por-
tions of the state and establish fully
the practicability of this method of
good roads making.
