Highways in Frnnce.

From the Coed Roads Bulletin
The present road system Of France was
started by Napoleon I No new roads OF
Importance have been opened in some
years. but the work of the engineers in
the department Of public works Of France
IS confined to keeping the roads in a state
of high efficiency. France 10 its remote
and inaccessible sections is so traversed
with excellent roadways that there Is now
no necessity OF adding many more lines
OF communication. The highways are the
chief competitors Of the railroads The
far-reaching and splendidly maintained
road system has distinctly favored the
small landed proprietors. and in their
prosperity and their ensuing distribution
OF wealth lies the key 10 the secret OF the
wonderful financial vitality and solid
prosperity Of the French nation. The
road system Of France has been OF far
greater value TO the country as the means
OF raising the value of lands and putting
the small peasant propTietOrs in easy
communication with their markets than
have the railways

EngIand's Biggest Goose Farm.


From Tit-BitS
To provide the Christmas goose for
5000 homes-or, at a modest estimate,
$4,000 peoples no light undertaking.
Twenty-Odd years ago a thrifty youth
saved his pocket money during the
earlier month OF the year. and later
purchased very young goslings with
his little hoard These he reared and
fattened for Christmas on his parents
farm in Lancashire. Young John Har-
rison saw there was money in the lit
tie business he had taken UP as a
hobby. The thing grew year by year
as he grew. until to-day he is well
known as the Lancashire goose king.
and his business has assumed the afore-
mentioned proportions.
4 peep at his huge flOcks OF geese
wandering over the fields acres and
acres IN extent at Halsall, a pictures
que hamlet near the old market town
Of Ormskirk, would indeed be q reve-
latiOn and a surprise TO many Twenty
sacks OF corn, besides a large quantity
of meal and potatoes. have 10 be deal
out per day To this stock OF geese. the
corn being usually scOoped out of carts
into trenches made along the fields.
As Christmas approaches the birds
are even more literally supplied with
delicacies, until they evirce no dispo-
sition to fiy-and, indeed. very little TO
wander about at all. Expert killers
and pluclers get 90 work some time
before Christmas. and half a dozen of
these men can prepare 800 10 400 a day.
They make more than a sovereign a
day at the work. The feathers some
times bring as much as IS pound.

PREVENTION OF STRIKES.
Comparison of Townsend Bill with
the Canadian Law.

The Townsend bill FOR the investiga-
tion. N the viii Of the President. OF
industrial pursuits affecting interstate
commerce. as reported by the Congress
siOnal committee is based upon a prin-
ciple OF The Canadian law. Il is not an
arbitration measure. but il IS a step be-
yond the present law which permits an
official investigation when requested by
either party in the dispute The Town
send bin goes step farther than the
Canadian law. applying To all disputes
which may affect interstate business.
Swhile the Canadian act applies. in its
mandatory features. only 20 mines and
public utilities. UPiike the Canadian law.
the Townsend bHl does not prohibit
strikes pending the investigation. and
IL relies wholly upon the moral effect
OF the investigation
The Canadian law has been in opera
ton nearly year. Its success IS best
indicated by a brief statement OF results.
IN nine months thirty-One applications
for boards OF investigs don were made
A number OF these civilizations were be-
yOnd the limits Of The law. auC because
Of lack Of mutual consent by both parties
In the dispute. the law could not operate
In some cases the mere application for
a board caused the parties to reach an
agreement In twenty-five cases boards
Of investigation We're established. In
but two instances did strikes occur. and
these were finally settled. after three
months duration, upon the lines OF the
recommendations made by the board OF
investigation The benefits gained BY
the operation Of this law have affected
ever 2eooo men and many million dollars
Of capital, and indirectly have been
shared By the great public interest.
The recommendations Of the board OF
investigation are not compulsory. but the
experience Of Canada has confirmed an
opinion previously expressed i'm :his
country that an intelligent and impartial
alignment Of facts in a labor dispute is q
long step toward settlement As an in
huence toward the peaceful settlement OF
labor troubles without the offensive use
of the power of legal compulsion so

lowed in the Townsend bill deserves
