| as the wagon tires passed a given
mark. Then the automobiles were
sent over the course. The first
was a heavy weight touring car
moving at FIVE miles an hour. A
series of pictures was made of that
car on its many journeys at vary
ing rates of speed until its max
imum of As miles an hour was at
tanned. Then the work was taken
up by the huge racer, which tore
down the road first at a speed of
so miles an hour. then at IS, 90.
and finally at IS. It fairly lifted
the road surfacing material as it
sped along, regular ridges of rock
dust rising in front of the rear
wheels and floating away in blind
ing clouds. Other tests were made
and other pictures taken of various
types of heavy Limousine cars and
runabouts. It was plainly mott
ceable and was commented on that
the automobiles when moving at
the slow rates of speed equal to the
speed made by horse-drawn vehi-
cles made very little dust, the
theory that fast speeding auto
mobiles are responsible for road
surface destruction being pretty
thoroughly substantiated by these
means.
The results of this interesting
bit of road work will be carefully
studied and put together in paper
or papers to be presented to the
International Road Congress which
will meet at Paris on October II;
for so far-reaching are the ravages
of the automobile on the wonder
full roads of France, that that
country has urged highway en-
gineers of all lands to assemble at
her gay metropolis in the fall to
take up the problem and strive for
a solution of it.

MAY ESTABLISH A
POULTRY FARM HERE
Wisconsin Man Who Owns Thousands Of
Chickens Thinks He can Raise Them
Cheaper in this Country.

A large poultry farm will prob
ably be started in the vicinity oil
this city within short time, if the
plans of Homer 7. McGregor oil
Oshkosh, Wisconsin materialize, and
he is satisfied with conditions
here.
NJ. McGregor arrived in this
city last night, and this morning
in company with J. P. st John,
Jr., visited the country surround
ing Brownsville to investigate its
adaptability for poultry raising.
He is well pleased with what he
las seen thus far.
On his large poultry farm near
Oshkosh, Wis. he has over ten
thousand chickens, which he raises
for the market. It is his intention,
if satisfied with the prospects for
his business here, to dispose of his
interests there and come to this
country. Land, feed and labor are
so high in the north that he feels
he can secure a bigger tract of
land, raise more chickens, and
obtain labor here at lower cost,
and with far greater profit, than
in Wisconsin.
1t is his idea to devote a portion
of the tract to corn, of which he
will raise enough 70 feed his chick
ems all the year around. In case
he comes here. tie major portion
of his chickens now on his Wis
consin farm will be brought to
