ing for him. He finally went to
sleep and 1t was thought that he
had recovered from the delirium. He

hospital unobserved by any of the
attendants. After going out in the

Dear Sir: A pound of good mea,

half-pound of meat and a half-pound

a great many people who won't pay

give 'em plenty of bone.
There are people who won't nay
more than $50 n gallon for paint;

perience; cost is high. but the lesson
is never forgotten.

Brick Roads.
Little Difference in Cost and vii! be Vastly
Better and More Durable.

1t is believed the time is not far
distant when state roads in Penn
sylvania will be constructed of brick
instead of macadam. While mac
adam is a great Improvement over
dirt roads, orick is rapidly displac-
ing the former and is becoming
more popular as its advantages are
made known. One element in favor
of brick is the matter of cost. 1t is
asserted that properly constructed
brick highway can be built at even
less cost, especially in this section
of the country where much of the
macadam material has to be shipped
in at cost much in excess of the
materials value The preparation
of the road for brick is no more ex-
pensive than that for macadam, and
its lasting qualities are much great
er. 1t is a fac; that however care
fully macadam road is built it wears
out rapidly and requires almost
constant attention. Brick paving
lasts for years and where a section
of road does yield through sinking
or wear it can be replaced easily
and at no great cost. The test has
already been made and the unaui
nous opinion is that brick is mncf
the superior. 1t is said that the
state highway commissioner is look
ing with favor cn the brick road
and that he will advocate that
material where new highways are
being projected.

State Crops.
A Record Breaking Year-Fruit and Hay a
Bumper Year.

Correspondents of Secy., Critch-
fields Department of Agriculture
report record-breaking crop condi-
tions throughout the state of PENN
sylvania. Fruit is especially plenti-
full. Apples were not seriously
damaged by moths, and the pear
crop promises to be one of the larg-
est known in years. Peaches are
very plentiful. "They seem this
year to have escaped all the various
ailments that ordinarily attack that
crop" said Deputy Secretary Mar
tin. Among the other farm pro-
ducts, hay was a bumper crop.
Wheat also yielded well, and the
indications are fora heavy crop of
corn. Early potatoes were not up
to standard, but reports as to the
late crop are uniformly favorable.
