pusT.pRoor ROAD

An experimental road has been COL.
structed at Truro, by which it is claimed
that it has the advantages Of being resiIi.
ent, mud and dust-proof, noiseIess and
requiring no removal of the old
surface. II consists in spiking down
on the roadway sheets Of expanded steel
similar to those so largely used for the
reinforcement of concrete, and layinr
over it a two inch depth OF ordinary road
material treated with coal tar and rolling
The expanded steel is obtained BY pass
ing solid sheets Of mild steel through y
machine, which cuts tlits at regular in
tervals, while the sheets ars ioTcibly ex-
panded, the result being a large sheet .
diamoni shaped netting, which, It -
claimed, when used in conjunction with
properly prepared stone, will give > road

ArAsKA,s WEALTH OF COAL

Alaska contains the only first class
bltuminous and anthracite coal on the
Pacific coast. From the Bering river
district railroads can be built to the sea,
not more than ITO miles long, over per.
fectly level country, and, according to a
published statement by Alfred H. Brooks,
head of the governments geological sur
vey work in Alaska, there are 5000, ,OOO,.
600 tons of it in both fslds-more than
one and half times all the coal that hes
ever been taken out of PenI sJlyania.
Two-thirds OF this has been fled upon y
clsimsnts-that is, a much coal as lac
SO far come from the mines of Pennsyl.

a dollar ton as it lies; that is, he esti.
mates the coal in the two ields at Sc, O00,.

The detectives jumped to their

had forced it open, and from its
depths drew forth a fat morocco
leather case. Pressing the spring
Burt released the lid, and a blaze
of dazzling light met our eyes.
Well, I'm blessed! said Burt.
He's gone off with the wrong bag.

It was true enough. / remem-
bered having moved my bag
under the opposite seat, and
Burnside in his haste, must have
mistaken it for his own, to which
it bore a strong resem blance.
The detectives fell back on the
seat and began to laugh.
Of course, I had bit of a job
to prove my bona tides. l was
detained at Liv verpool that night,
and released on bail next day.
Luckily The affair was kept out Of
the papers, and I escaped with
the only indignity of receiving a
severe official censure fer my i'm
prudence.
Burnside got clean away, as
you doubtless remember, and |
heard no more of the affair until
some six months afterward, when
Ireceived a check for fifty pounds
from his lordship, who, it was
rumored, was not sorry that
Burnside had escaped, once the
diamonds were recovered. But
l don't think l should enter on a
similar undertaking again, even
with the prospect of a reward ten

FARM NEWS AND VIEWS

Don't try to keep too many COWS il
your farm is small. Keep a few good
ones and care for them well. Sometimes
good cows aud good feed may produce
poor results if the management is moi
right.
Buckwheat meal is very good to use in
fattening chickens, but should be used in
preference mixed, half OF its bulk of other
meal, choice being giveu to cornmeal or
ground oats. To fatten a fowl you should
commence doing so exactly eighteen days
before the fowl or fowls are needed for
killing or for marketing, as after eighteen
days of fattening they begin to lose flesh
instead of gaining it.
A grindstope should never be left ex-
posed to the sun. The weight OF the
handle will always cause one portion Of
the stone to remain uppermoet, and this
from exposure will reach a different de-
gree of hardness from the underside, go
that after awhile the stone will be ground
out Of circle. II the stone has to stand in
the open fat box can easily be obtained
to serve as cover,
Most of the diseases that afflict fowls
are the result OF carelessness and indif.
ference on the part of the owner as re-
CARDS the surrounding and conditions Of
his poultry. No poultry will show TO
advantage on the credit side Of the cash
account unless they are healthy and well
cared for. How to prevent disease should
be the watchword rather than how TO
cure disease.
When dairyman has faced the actual
practice OF selling COWS from his herd for
beef he will not feel encouraged over the
outlook of combining beef and dairy quail
tiles in the same herd. There is popu.
lar prejudice against eating beef from an
old played out dairy COW, and there is no
advantage in trying to combine she two
qualities in one animal.
The calf must be fed right if you want
to get the most out Of it when grown up.
Incubators and broodsrs have become
necessity. A statement of this kind
made few years ago woud have been
scoffed at and ridiculed. But this chicken
making machinery has become SO inn
portant, SO practical and simple that it is
now used successfully by the family living |
in the hut, materially adding to its meager |
income; by clerks, ealesmen and sa es.
women; by the fanciers who have found |
incubators safer than hens; by merchants,
doctors and ministers with a hobby or
desire for an interesting pastime that is
productive OF profits as well.
Above all learn not to crowd your birds.
Locate your yard where the ground is
always dry. Wet feet and sick hens 20
Move your yards once IN awhile. If
they have been a long time in the same
place, try a new one and see how much
more thrifty your birds will be.
The very earth sometimes gets inocu-
sted with inject pests and disease. Rid
yourself OF these enemies and deal only

Where patient is much weakened
and crises may be expected I'm from
five to ten days, probably not more
than 10 per cent IN 20 per cent re-
cover. Where physicians aid with
efforts to restrain fatal symptoms this
percentage is increased In cases
where patients have from thirty to
sixty days of life the efficiency is
very much higher.
Where patients do not wait until
bed-ridden probably three-tourths

Aud in cases that take tho new

Burns named several that johnson
would not have.
The arguments grew warm and then
hot and during all this lime John
son sat across tho table from Burns,
and the madder the Canadian grew
the more Johnson smiled All OF n
sudden. and without the least warn
ing. Burns reached over the table
and, gripping an Ink stand. that FitZ-
patrick says weighed at least five
pounds. raised his arm and declared
he would brain the colorcd man.
Burns WAS in a fury and most OF the
otner men present made a dash for
him TO prevent his rash act During
all this time Johnson sat as still as
mouse. with his face covered with a
broad smile. and when Burns had been
seated and pacifled by his friends,
Johnson said; You're a gentleman.
Mr. Burns"
The coolneSs of the colored man,
at such a critical moment. impressed
those present with the idea that fear
and the colored man arc strangers.
Later Burns again flew into a rage,
but Johnson laughed and informed
him that he would get all that was
coming to him when the pair met In
the ring for the championship battle.
Fought With Broken Rib.
The history Of the battle proves
that Johnson was right. but there is
another happening that occurred in
that contest which attests to the game
ness of the colored fighter After
the contest was over Johnson and
his handlers were whirled away 10
their training quarters In an auto
mobile, where the colored man dress
cd and prepared for a trip 10 the
city About two hours after the con
test Johnson complained that he had
pain in his side that did not seem
to leave him. and upon calling a ply.
sician little later he found that
Burns In some manner had broken
one OF Johnsons ribs
Johnson fought through several
rounds with the bad rib In fact. no
one seemed to know just when it did
happen. and the fact that he never
complained is taken as an indica.
ton by Fitzpatrick that Johnson is
game. Johnson seems little con.
cerned about the big battle that is
to take place on the Fourth of July
and when talking II over he displays
no more enthusiasm than he did for
any of the other battles he has had.
