What the Good Roads Will Cost

The cost per mile of the roads to be
constructed under the State appropria-
ton of S., 200, 900 is now the most i'm
portant question before the Roads Com
mission.
The ssmodel' road will cost from
$1,000 to $4,000 a mile and require
500 to $500 mile annually to main
tain. This kind of road is constructed
according to the latest methods and of
the best materials, and is supposed to
outlive its builders several times over
The cheap roads, which are believed
by some residents of the counties to be
serviceabe, can be costIucted at a cost
of from 800 to $4,000 mile and re-
quire an expenditure of from $50 to $50
mile annually. The material for this
road depends upon the locality. and if
good stone is near by it can be used at
low cost. Drainage and cuts and other
engineering work are restricted by the
low expenditure.
The third kind of road is the medium,
between the two. This will cost about
$4,000 or $1,000 mile and require $50
and 500 each year to maintain. 1t is
estimated by those in favor of this kind
of road that all of the necessary engi-
neering can be done within this figure.
On turnpikes which will have been
purchased by the Commission it is esti-
mated that comparatively less amount
will have to be expended, many of
these roads being in good condition at
present and needing only a topdressing
and proper drainage and grading

John Hopkins University, and was in
session four days.
Accom- panied by Congressman John
Kronmil er, Mr. Jackson called Mon
day upon a number Of public men at
Washington. Because of a previous
er gagement, Vice President Sherman
declined an invitation to attend. 1t is
also believed that President Taft will
be unable to attend any Of the meetings
Governor Crothers and Mayor Mahool
took a part in the proceedings OF
the Congress. The first session was
opened with an invocation by Cardinal
Gibbons, after which the Mayor wei
come the visiting delegates.
:Gcvernur Crothers, who is deeply in.
terested in good roads, presided. In &C.
cepting the presidency, the Governor
will tell what Maryland has done and
what it proposes to do IN building good
roads. The State is on the verge OF
awarding its first contracts for roads

Planting In the Moon.

The Agricultural Department has un-
dertaken to disabuse the mind of TIL
Amer can farmer of the "superstition'
that the moons phases infunce the
growth or yield of crops. This is mat
tel that has pestered the husbandmar
and the philosopher for ages, and inter
rogatory is as pertinent today as it was
when Shakespeare was farmer, if the
moo n in Influenced tie action of the waters
of the ocean why should it not exercise
some dominion over the energy of the
soil?
Shakespeare was endowed with a
wonderful, understanding, at once teles
copic and microscopic. Nothing was
100 great for him to observe, and moth
ing too minute for him to disregard
He was successful planter, and he be-
lieved in the moon superstition. In
s.Toilus and Cressida," where the lover
made the extravaeant protestations OF
his loyaltyto his mistress, one OF the
SMILES he drew was:
As true as steel, as plantage to the moon
As sun to day, as turtle to her mate,
As iron to adamant, as earth to the
center.
Superstition" is very good thing
to encourage now and then-especially
the moon part of its relation to planting
and cultlvating.

roads throughout the county and to
assist in obtaining State and national
legislation on subject. After each
speech there will be 3 general discus
sion of the topic. Road construction
and maintenance and cost will! be the
principal topics under consideration.
Particular attention will be paid to de-
fects In the roads which have built in
other States, so that these evils can be
avoided in the future. All classes of
improved roads will be considered.
That the people of Maryland shall
take an interest in the Congress, the
Governor has appointed a score of
delegates from each county. Mayor
Maheol has invited The Mayors of cities
in the East, and it is expected that some
of them will come. One of the leaders
in the Confess is former State Senator
Martin Dodge, of Ohio. He will take
prominent part in the proc lings.
On the other three days of the Con-
gress prayers will be offered by Rev.
Dewitt M. Benham, Rev. Hugh F.
Johnson and Rev. G. William Rosenau.

Salary for Game Wardens.

At an all day session of the Fish and
Game Commission in Baltimore, recent
". the matter of game wardens for the
counties took up most of the morning
session.
1t was proposed and generally agreed
that the State should provide the State
game warden with at least two deputies
who could serve as detectives and who
might be sent to any part of the State
where violations of the law were report
ed. These were supposed to be utility
men and should be named primarily for
the purpose of assisting in the various
counties. For each county it is propos-
ed that one warden be appointed
These officials are to receive salary OF
$500 under the proposed plan and to
have a half or probably more of the
fines which may be secured through
convictions.
The detectives who are to work di-
rectly under the State warden are Ia
have salaries of about 5000 each and
necessary expenses. 1t was also pro
posed that the de partment of both fish
and game protection be combined under
one official.
