alley between Broadway and Washing
ton streets and the east side of Broad
way. between the Pennsylvania tracks
and Twenty fifth street.
The trouble Mr.. Melton encountered
was this: The law states that only a
foundation for a street can be used
which will be suitable for four differ
ent surfaces and that specifications
must be made out for each one of the
surfaces In the opinion of Mr.. Mel
ton this would eliminate every kind of
foundation except concrete. which alone
can be used with four different sur
faces. It also prevents the Gary town
board from using sand as a foundation
for their brick pavements. which they
have found considerably cheaper and
almost as serviceable. The law also
stipulates that all of the pavements
should be modern, and it is a question
where a sand and brick pavement
would be recognized as modern.

melodies of this nature; in fact, the ma

A Woman onion erowerr.

You may have heard how the Rio
Grande country has put the Bermuda
onion growers out of business" said
Capt. George II. Darter. of Laredo,
Tex. our most successful grower, by
the way, is a lady Mrs. E. c. Dodd,
who lives in my town. She cultivated
1856 acres this season and made a net
profit on her onion crop of a little over
$50. 900. To make land bring a gain
of S40O an acre is something few men
have the ability TO do, and yet this
lady does not seem to regard her feat
as emitting her to any great praise.
Mrs. Dodd looks after every detail
of her farm in person. Raising onions
is no child's play; it involves hard
work and great expense in our section
where irrigation is necessary. 1t is the
intention of Mrs. Dodd TO plant on a
still larger scale as she gradually
brings more of her land under irri-
cation. Baltimore American.

PhysieaI culture in germany.

Every public school in Germany has
a gymnasium. and there are certain
hours on certain days when physical
culture of boys and girls of all classes
and ages is gone through" said Prof
Volze, superintendent of physical cul-
ture in the public schools of Frank
fort, Germany. The physical culture
instructors are paid by the city. and
the halls and apparatus are also main
tained by the various communities.
Physical culture in the public
schools in Germany is just as regular
and necessary as arithmetic or gram
mar. The welfare of the nation de-
pends more on a strong and healthy
citizenry than upon a highly educated
one; still better, when the two quail
ties can be combined. and that is the
principle of the German school system.
Swimming is also taught in the pub
lie schools, and the pupils are COM
