Road of the Future.

rom III" tc.;thfr
All road builders are now engaged in
trying 20 devise a road which will stand
motor traffic. Many new methods have
been tried. with varying degrees of sue
cess but none of them seems to be per-
fectly satisfactory. If broken stone is to
form the wearing surface. then some
means must be found to hold the binding
particles so firmly that they cannot be
sucked out: and sufficient strength must
be given to the mass to enable 1t to
withstand the sliding action OF the wheels
at bends and turns. Several kinds of tar
macadam answer fairly we'll. but they
are expensive.
1t seems to me that the most promising
kind of road for heavy automobile traffic
Is what is called DuraX in England. 1t Is
a pavement Of three-inch irregular cubes
of hard stone. laid in small segments of
circles These stones can be cut by ma
chiDery.. and are cornpa ratively mex
pensiye; they are laid without srout. but
there seems to be no reason for its omis-
sion except the cost. Great quantities Of
this kind of pavement have been laid in

Mother Will Accept Verdict.

IF such is fact. I'll take ii as final.
I've heard nothing about it. however"
This is the attitude of Mrs. Suzanne
Darne, mother of Grace NJ. H. Hurd, as
expressed when informed of the result
of the autopsy in New York upon her
daughters body
Since the departure of her sons, Rich
ard and Fayette Darne, last Sunday
morning for the Herd home at 324 West
I'D street. New York, the mother has
received but one letter from. either of
them, which came this morning. 1t was
brief and told of arrangements made
with the New York authorities for an au-
topsw and possible Investigation into the
death >.
Mrs Darne had not heard from them
that an autopsy had been performed yes
terday. and Mrs. Herd was found to have
died from pneumonia, although the re-
port had reached her from other sources.
Il can't tell anything about it until

in New York. Anyhow, the maner of
notifying me, the mother. of her death is
| mystifying," she said, when seen at her
home, oslo p street northwest, today.
Informed by Another Daughter.
Her dead daughters husband, Andrew
Max Herd, is a stereotyper. formerly of
this city. Mrs. Darne received tele-
gram last Saturday from another daugh-
ter. Mrs Antonio Grazeda of San Anto-
MO. Tex. apprising her of the death.
Mrs Ora zeda's message was based on one
from Herd sent to her in San Antonio.
why didn't he send word to my sons
or myself?'' said Mrs. Darne. ut would
have been natural and the right thing
to do.
He could have sent message to Mrs
Grazeda as well. but his duty lay in let

years.

OPEN AIR ORCHARD HEATING.
How the Fruit of Grand Valley, Col,
Was Saved From the Frost.

From the Scientific American.
The 1909 crop of fruit in the Grand val
ley in Colorado, from the Palisades above
to Iona below, valued at $1,000. COO. owes
its existence to a unique battle which was
.waged against Jack Frost at time when
the fruit was at its tenderest age. By un-
usual generalship and the work Of hun
dreds of enthusiastic volunteers the tenn
perature in these orchards was actually
raised eight and nine degrees over twen-
ty-seven miles of territory and a prec-
edent was established which will mean
much to the future.
In California is is said that the tempera-
ture has been raised heretofore in some
single orchards two or three degrees.
but never to eight degrees, and never be-
fore has the work been carried on over so
great an area. Plans are now on foot to
have every bearing orchard in the Grand
valley protected by next season, not that
there is any likelihood of frost every
spring in this section but because the
protection against possible repetition of
this years experience is considered cheap
insurance.
The raising of the temperature over this
large area was accomplished by means OF
some 3OOGOO smudge pots of many differ
ent types. some burning oil for fuel and
some coal, and placed at intervals in the
orchard. Oil was carried to the pots in
wagon tanks equipped for the purpose.
Spraying machines were also used In dis
tributing the Oil. 4 large supply of light
ers was kept in readiness in dry place.
Many of these lighters We're made by
wrapping waste about twisted wire.
All operations were directed from Grand
Junction. Weather stations established
over much of the territory and equipped
with thermostats when the Threatening
weather arrived made half hourly reports
on the temperature to Grand Junction.
When finally the danger point was APP
preaching warning was sent to all the
ranchmen to light the fires. Volunteers
also in nearly all walks of life made their
way in automobiles and wagons and on
bicycles over the entire area.
So well did this orchard heating idea
work that while the temperature outside
the heated area dropped as low as twenty
degrees within the heated area it did not
go below twenty-nine and a half. % per
cent OF all the fruit trees which were in
bloom were cared for directly, while even
orchards owned BY those who were
skeptical of the idea We're saved by the
fires in the adjoining territory.

SHIPS RACING AGAINST TIME
CUSTOM HOUSES TO BE OPEN

This Government Makes Tariff Con-
cession to France, Bulgaria

Rather than be ungra cious to France.
Bulgaria and Swift zerand, which have

that expire Sunday, October 81, the Treas
ury Department has decided that 1t Will

mission of any goods from those countries
that could arrive on that day. This Is
Notwithstanding the order issued yester-
day to collectors of customs requiring
them to keep the customs houses open I'M

I'm view of the fact that the CONNER
cial agreements with France. Switzerland
and Bulgaria would expire with the close
of business Saturday, the 10th instant.
the, l,tom house will be kept open until
4:30 instead of being closed at I O'Clock
for the usual half-holiday. In this con-
nection your attention is invited to the
Treasury decision of the Both ultimo reia-
tive to the termination of the commercial
agreements between the United States and
France
The Treasury decision referred to was
the one fixing October ~ as the date Of
the expiration of the agreements instead
of the 31.st. because of the latter date
falling on Sunday.
The acts of Congress do not recognize
Saturday afternoons as half holidays and
the executive departments of the gov
eminent at Washington therefore remain
open until 4:3O every Saturday. the same
as other week days, except during the
summer. But at New York and Chicago
and other cities business houses are gen.
orally closed. In Difference to the local
laws the custom officers at those cities
haze closed generally on Saturday at !
O'Clock.

between France and the United States
regarding application of the new tariff
act to French imports into this country

to me because l did know many
of the English cathedrals. and did not
