One Thousand Miles of Good Roads.


II will probably be news to the
majority of motorists to hear that
within the past ten years nearly 1000
miles of improved highways have
been built in this State at State, coun-
ty and town expense, and that 1894
miles of roads are now under contract
and 977 miles of roads waiting for
the letting of contract under the new
State law.
In 1906 the State appropriated for
highway improvement $4,000 00, in
1907 $4,000 and in 1908 $1,000.
900, making $1,000,000 available
now and s2,000,000 available in the
fall.
An examination of the State Ens'-
neer's bulletin No. IA discloses the
fact that three counties in the State
have completed and under contract
at least 140 miles, one county 100
miles, two counties ninety miles, two
counties eighty miles, two counties
sixty miles. five counties fifty miles,
four counties forty miles, four coun-
ties thirty miles and twenty-seven
counties, one-half the entire number
of the State, less than thirty miles
each.
The present statute is so drawn that
the mileage to be improved in any
one county in each year is dependent
not upon equitable distribution to
each county, but on ratio deter
mined by the number of miles on the
highway map approved by Chapter
715 of the Laws of 1907, to which
must be added the total number of
miles in each county completed, and
then this sum is multiplied by two,
and a ratio then established, which
the appropriation and the mileage so
determined in each county bears to
the $50,000,000 bond issue. 1t is
very evident that the statute so drawn
carries larger annual improvements
to the counties having the large mile
age on the map plus the large mile
age improved, and that they are be-
ing taken care of faster than the
other counties. Those who have stud
led the law do not consider it fair or
proper. The law is repealed by the
new highway code, but the repea,
does not go into effect until January
1909. = Duncan Curry, in the New
York American

How Perfumes
Are Made.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

Glass sheets held by frames few
inches apart are smeared rather
thickly with lard, and between these
sheets the freshly picked blossoms
are scattered, touching the frames
but not being pressed by them. In
one day the oil of the flowers exudes,
and the lard absorbs the precious
drops. If the flowers are plentiful
they may be changed every six hours,
and in the case of jonquils thirty
times; jasmine is usually changed
eighty times before the layers of lard
are entirely saturated. When the
lard has dissolved as much oil as
possible from the flowers, it is melted
and dissolved in purified alcohol made
from grain. When this mixture is
filtered, the concentrated extract may
be redissolved in spirits, diluted, or
mixed with other oils according to the
Strength or quality desired.
Altar of roses and neroly, the base
Of eau de cologne, are made by diff
ferent method. The perfume may be
extracted by an ordinary process of
distillation if very even heat is OBJ
tanned, but the usual method is the
bain-marie. A large kettle of lard is
immersed in tub of water at the
boiling point until the grease reaches
a uniform temperature and is entirely
melted. Into this warm lard the
petals of orange blossoms or of roses
are thrown. The petals remain a day
or less In this bath, and then the in
odorous wilted flowers are removed
and fresh ones submerged until the
mixture attains the desired strength.
The women beat the mixture into a
cream. After the pomade is made,
the oil may be shipped in this state,
or distilled and sold In its concen-
trated form as altar of roses or
neroly, or diluted to the strength of
perfume" or eau de cologne.
Twenty thousand pounds of rose
petals are required to make one pound
Of altar of roses, valued at about
5000. A thousand pounds approx
mately Of the petals of the bitter or
ange are necessary to make a pound
of neroly, valued at SEQ on an aver
age.-Jane Rosamond White, in The
