Experiments with rubber asphalt
roadways covering a period of six
years are reported to have shown very
satisfactory results. Rubber asphalt
is claimed to be more plastic and more
adhesive than pure asphalt and resists
higher temperatures. This product,
which is manufactured under patent
ed process, permits cold applications of
the asphalt, which are said to possess
all the advantages of hot compressed
asphalt without its drawbacks.

In rows than broadcast.
The best cows are the ones that the
careful dairyman raises for himself.
Rotation must be practiced in the

For best results in the vineyard
plenty of water is necessary. During

At last Chateaubriand looked into

were the manuscripts. The monkey
had watched his master. and as he
had seen him fold sheet of paper
and tear it into four, so he had dealt
with Fontanes' writings. With much
labor they were pieced together and
afterward published.
Chateaubriand thought Ii advisable
TO see what else the monkey had
done. His orders had disappeared
from a drawer which was always
kept closed. The servants searched

who had a beautiful time all
day long and buzzed about at
his own sweet will, wholly without
regard to the feelings of others. He
went from flower to flower and coaxed
them to let him have their honey. and
as soon as he had filed his bag with
it he flew away and left the flower
all bare of sweetness. Some of the
flowers even tried to close up when
he came near, to save their honey,
for we'll they knew his ways, but
they could not prevent his entering,
and soon he had their whole store.
Where he kept his honey no cue
knew. He lived in the forest some-
where, for il was towards the forest
he always flew when he had filled
his bags in the garden. But of course,
none of the flowers had followed him.
for they were stay-at-hOme people.
Besides the flowers there were
three children in the garden, a boy
and his two sisters. They also
learned to dislike the visits of 5ne
humble bee. One day he stung the
boy, merely for mischief and ever
after that, when he brushed their
faces, the children would all jump
and scream and run away. He quite
enjoyed teasing them by flying close
to their faces on purpose, until his
wings would actually brush their
noses, and then how they would
Jump, and the mischievOus bee
would be buzzing off on his way
laughing at them in his own quiet
fashion.
One day when little Eleanor had
taken her bread and milk out under
the trees to eat it in the garden
along came the humble bee and
buzzed right into her ear. so that she
jumped and spilled her milk all over
her clean dress. How the mischief
laughed! He could hardly contain
himself for merriment, and when her
sister came running out to help re-
pair the damage, the naughty fellow
flew straight into her face, so that in
her confusion she stumbled and fell
screaming in the grass.
Nor was this all. When the chill
drens mother lay out in the ham,
mock to take her afternoon nap, hard
ly had she closed her eyes when she
heard the drumming of tiny wings
all about her. and opened them again.
In vain she tried driving the bum
BILE bee away with her fan. The
troublesome fellow was determined
not to go, and returned again and
again to the charge. He loved to
tease people, and the more annoyed
they appeared TO be by his rpesence
the more determined he was to stay
there and annoy them
One day, however the time came
when he would gladly have gone
away had he been able to do so, for
in his flights about the yard he ran
up against something soft that
seemed to close about him so that he
could not use his wings. For few
this did not alarm him much.
He thought that by putting forth a
little more effort. of course, he could
break through the fimsy thing, so he

heartless chuckle the humble bee
thought il, but it was very much such
a chuckle as he had chuckled him
seIR many time, when he had taken
all the store of honey from a flower
and flown away with it, and at the
sound the humble bee was filled with
rage and fought harder than ever
against the web, but all in vain. Then
the spider ran forward and wound a
fresh rope about a leg of the Tee,
and then another one. and another,
until pretty soon the unfortunate bee
was so tied up that he could not move
at all.
When he found that it was no use
making any further struggle, the
humble bee began to plead for mercy.
but at this the spider only chucklsd
the harder. Then the bee called out
to the flowers to help him, reminding
them that he was one Of their oldest
friends and had visited them day
after day for many months, but the
flowers replied, you only visited us
to steal from us. You are no friend
of ours"
Then he turned to the children and
called out to them to help him. and
reminded them that he had sung to
them through many a summer day.

one viii set me free for honey. I
have a great store of honey in the
woods and the child who win set me
free again shall have it ALL"
At this it was the turn of the chill
dren to smack their lips, for they all
loved honey, and the boy advanced
with a stick in his hand and had soon
destroyed the spiders web, so that
the bee escaped, and with hutter OF
his wings, rose into the air. Follow

straight for the forest The boy fol

to a hollow tree all surrounded by
bees, and inside it was a great quau-
tity of honey. He was overjOyed at
the sight, and carefully marking the
place, hurried home again and got
his father to help him. and between
them they secured the whole mass
of honey and carried home great
buckets full of it. so that he invited
all the children for miles around TO
come to a feast of honey.
But the other humble bees were so
angry with the one who had be-
trayed the hiding place of their stores
that they attacked him and stung
him TO death.
