Some interesting data concerning
the value of oil in the making CT
good roads appeared in a Kansas ex.
leiiment station bulletin. An evenly
grad d stretch OF sandy loan road a
quarter of a mile long and thirty feet
wide was sprayed with an oil resiuu,
four inches deep had formed on this
road and had caused almost cessation
OF traffic. The road was first plowed
to a depth of four and one-half incn-
es and then thoroughly pulvsrlzeG
with a harrow. Oil TO the extent OF
one gallon per square yard was then
sprinkled and narrowed in, aitei
which the road was floated. The roao
was closed to traffic for week after
this treatment.
The effect of freezing weather on
the roadbed was the object frs,
studied. The result proved that the
Gil made a waterproof shed and Kept
the underlying soil sufficiently dry tt
prevent serious injury by frosts. The
question of the durability of ruao
seems also settled when roads are
treated with oil, as this road success
FULLY wlthstood all kinds of heavy
traffic. In the hottest season it was
deemed necessary to spray again with
Gil about half gallon to the square
yard, to keep down slight laye rul
dust. The estimated cost of oiling
this road is $525 per mile, although
some of it varied and extreme cosi
went as high as rate of $500 Ger

washinxton County,s Neglect

Fears are entertained by Wallace Pruitt, a well known attorney of Wash ington county, that neglect of election officials of that county on Tuesday of this week may be the cause of divest- ing the county of s4500 which 1t de- rives annually by means of the levy of one mill on every hundred dollars for educational purposes. Under the law, the county has been holding cleo tions to assure the receipt of the amount but this year. according to Mr. Pruitt, the matter was overlo ok ed. the election being held but in such haste that the measure could not be advocated.
 The law requires that the tax must receive three-fifths of the total vote before 1t can be collected. Without un- derstanding the question, voters failed to cast their ballots in behalf of the tax. which is generally declared by res- idents of that county wise measure.

ReynoId's Opinion

In the opinion of c. W. Reynolds, one of the best known citizens of Clanton. in Chiffon county, the attitude of J. 0.

Usu- ally the county goes republican by a fair majority, but at the recent election, MT. Reynolds states, only one repub- lican was elected, the office of clerk of the circuit court going to a e. o. P. candidate.
