House on Sargent Place Burned.
Fire Of unknown origin burned the
house and shed on the Sargent place,
owned by NJ II. ChiCkering, Sunday even
ing. The property was insured for $1,000
through the office of II. +. Taylor &
Son OF Brattleboro. but the loss was well
above that figure Mr. Chickerng has
not made definite plans relative to re-
building. The house was located about a
mile and "a half from the house occupied
by Mr.. Chckering, toward Spofford lake.
About 80 O'Clock Mrs. G. VI Joslyn saw
"a reflection on the clouds As though there
was a fire and went to Mr. Chickering
to telephone in regard to It, Soon al
forwards news came by telephone that
the fire was on the Sargent place. Mr.
ChickeTfng started for the scene at once
and when he arrived a good number OF
persons had gathered. but there was
nothing to do as no water was avail
able. The fire started in what formerly
was used as an ice house. which was at
tached to shed adjoining the house. In
the afternoon there was sharp lightning
in that locality, but none was noted in
the evening. 1t has been suggested that
lightning may have started fire in the
81 wdust in the icehouse and that the fire
smouldered some time before breaking
out. The house was vacated few weeks
ago II was a seven room cottage. Mr..
ChiCkering expended $500 in repairs upon
II a few years ago.

GOOD EARTH ROADS.
Cheaper Than Other Highways
and Easy TO Build.
COED DRAINAGE A NECESSITY

It Is One IF the Principal Points In
Making a Good Dirt Roadway-They
Are Preferred In Many Sections Of
the United States.
Long ago / became convinced that IL
we were to have good roads in our day
and generation we must seek some 9th
er methods of doing the work ana
some other material than macadam.
For while stone roads have and per
haps always will have an adaptation
for certain districts on account OF
the lack of facilities for good drain
age. which Is one Of the principal
points in the construction of earth
roads, or where the character of the
soil is such that good earth roads can
not be made or for thorOughfares
where the travel is great and the valu-
alton high enough to stand the taxa
ton. the expense is far too great to
make them practicable for even a
small proportion of all the roads.
1t must be remembered that no mat
ter how good stone road is construct
ed there is Il certain amount of wear
and tear each day and month and year.

From Good Roads Magazine, New York
TYPICAL RURAL EARTH ROAD.
The amount of this wear has been
found by experience to be from one
fourth to one-llalf inch year.
others have figured it at only two
thirds Of n cubic yard per year.
We also have the experience Of city
st.trt making. With all of their great
valuation to tax cities have found it
buldc.isome to keep up good paved or
mac't l.nized streets.
Nj. d | am not speaking against mac
adaAIi:oo roads. They are. SO far as
our kHo,,leJge Of roadmaking now
goes. the one thing for thoroughfares
or other places where the valuation
will afford them without burdensome
taxation And many of such places
throughout the United States prefer
the well built dirt road. What we
want is good roads now, and the Ques-
ton is how to make them with what
money is available. and l think it is
the wrong policy for township that
has only from $1,000 to $4,000 year
to spend on roads to lay it all out on
a mile or two of stone road when by
the right methods good earth roads
could be kept up over the whole town.
ship with the same money or less.
The solution of this. l am convinced,
is in learning how to make earth roads.
l believe that by proper methods Of
roadmaking the earth roads, especial
ly in places whore the nature of the
soil and the facilities for good drain
age are favorable, can be made and
kept as good as OF better on the average
than the stone road and at but a frac-
ton of the cost.
The nature of the soil and the facili-
ties for drainage are so varied that it
is impossible to lay down any one rule
or method of roadmaking. At some
places nothing but macadam will do,
but there are many, many other places
where the earth roads can be made
equally good. In fact. in places where
the soil is Just right--that is, porous
enough to let the water through and
yet tenacious enough to pack and not
Become dusty-and the drainage nat
urally good the earth road is the very
best that can be made. And most soils
will III n large degree take on the quail
tiles necessary for good roadmaking
after good drainage is effected.-J. G.
Homsher in Good Roads Advocate.

Secretary Knox For Good Roads.

Secretary Knox believes that the
congestion Of population in great cities
is caused in large part by the lack of
good roads in this country. He told
the house committee on foreign affairs
that the reason France is the richest
agricultural country in the world is
because she has had good roads so
long. He said: The agricultural pop
ulatiOn Of France does not have to
spend its money in repairing vehicles
and their harness every winter. l
think it has improved the attractive
ness O. rura! life. ] think it has caus-
cd the population TO remain on the
soil more than IN any ether country.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Household Wisdom.

To keep kitchen tables white scrub
them well with cold water, soap and Il
little silver sand. Do not use hot wa
ter on tables. as it turns them yellow.
Stewed figs or prunes will be found
much richer if the fruit is soaked for
several hours before stewing. They
should be stewed in the same water in
which soaked.
BE careful where you place your
dressing tables and mirrors. Sunlight
will destroy the finest bevel French
plate and it is impossible to restore
the backing without considerable eX-
pense. Dampness will destroy it in
the same manner.
