The AIR ROUTE SPECIAL.

The progress being mad. in the matter
of aerial navigation is certainly wonder
full, and the coming few years will mark
rapid advance in that means of travel.
Heretofore these airsIips have been look
ed upon ae limited i'll capacity in both
carrying power and distance traversed.
However Count Zeppelin, the famous
German inventor, has just marked an
other achievement for his large dirigible
riaship carrying 20 passengers from
Friedrichshafer to Dusseldorf, Germany,
distance of 300 miles,i in nine hours, cut
ting the time of railroad trains one third.
1t is asid that regular trip are now to be
made and that the fare for a short time
will be from $50 to $50. This airship is
equipped with restaurant, so there will
be no stops for meals. The vessel is 4S5
feet long and 81 feet Wholesome weight
that to fly through the air at over 4C
miles on hour.

One Of The Prosperous Institutions
Of the Village

The Riverdale Elevator Co., of this
village under the management of w. K.
Swope is rapidly forging to the front
and is daily doing an increased business
over corresponding days of previous
years. Tie Elevator proper contains
eight bins each having a capacity of
1000 bushels while i'll the bean rooms
twenty up to-date machines are installed
for the purpose of picking and cleaning
the immense amount of beans delivered
at the elevator. Last season alone
approximately 10000 bushels passed
through the beanery.
A l2 horse power McVicker engine
operates feed mill where custom grind
ing is done for the farmers and others
in need of same. In addition to the
business of the elevator, feed mill and
beanery Mr.. Swope operates large coal
and wood yards and handles for the
retail trade cement, lime, pulp, plaster,
tile, shingles, salt and lime as we'll as a
stock of lumber sufficiently large to
accommodate the citizens of that hustling
community. Mr.. Swope is thoroughly

RETURNS FROM West
Mrs. Louisa Goodrich Former Gfat-
lot County Lady
RETURNS FROM Fl. WRANGLE
Brings CurlOS From Alaska Secured With HeI
Own Hands

Mrs. Louisa Goodrich, who recently
returned from Fort Wrangle, Alaska,
is spending a few days in Alma, the
guest of her son and family, Mr.. and
Mrs. L. Tinkham. Sixteen years ago
Mrs Goodrich lived in the brick
house on the St. Louis road now oc-
cuped by Mrs. Francisco, and is well
remembered by many OF our old set
tiers. For two years she has been at
Fort Wrangle, Alaska, with her son,
and returns now expecting to spend
some time with a son who lives at
Mesick
Mrs. Goodrich brought with her
many curios from that far-off Amer
lean possession, among which was a
piece of rock containing two beautiful
black garnets. She also had several
nuggets OF gold, the real thing as it
comes from the mines. The climate
of Fort Wrangle, which is situated
near the Pacific coast in Southern
Alaska, is said by Mrsy Goodrich to
be nearly the same as Michigan
climate. Her son has recently come
into possession OF 800 acres of land in
that country and expects this season
to grow a potato crop. The Wolverine
state, however, has many advantages
over the Alaska possession, and Mrs,
Goodrich will enjoy them at least dur
ing the summer months.

Why NOT TRY / HERE
Preparation That Produces a Dust
less Road Without SprinkIing
ACTS As CHEMICAL SPONGE
AbSOrbs the Moisture and Holds II for Sew.
eraI WeekS-SuCceSS Where Used

The problem of really dustless
roadway has apparently at last been
solved. The thing that does it is
calcium chloride, a chemical hitherto
known to the public only as disin-
fectant. 1t is sort of chemical
sponge which absorbs moisture very
quickly and parts with it very slowly.
1t is manufactured in DetroitS
In speaking of this preparation the
Grand Rapids Press of recent date
said
"The first road to be treated by this.
preparation in this part of the state
is the parkway in John Ball park run
ming south from the Watson street
extension. The calcium chloride was
sown on the roadway as one would
SOW grass seed. The chloride absorbs
more than its own weight in water
and when it has absorbed all il can
this water held in solution will not
evaporate in several weeks of the dry
est weather. If dry spell, without
dew, however, continues too long, the
road must be sprinkled. But in ordi-
udl WCdluCl, IL 10 SldlSu, TIC uSW llidl
falls at night furnishes sufficient
moisture to keep chloride road in
prime condition.
During the hot, dry days of the
last week this stretch of road in John
Ball park has been absolutely without
dust The surface is hard and smooth.
1t looks damp in spots, but is not so
damp that any particles stick to the
shoes, and this road has been as clean
and free from dust as a cement side
walk.
"When Superintendent Goebel was
looking for some preparation to i'm
prove the roadways in John Ball park
General Manager Freshney of the
board of public works called his at
tention to the calcium chloride prep
aration and Mr.. Goebel is more than
pleased with the result of the expert
ment.
at costs about cent and half per
square yard to treat a street with this
calcium chloride, and if properly
cared for one treatment is sufficient
for a season, it is claimed.
The Record understands this prep
aration is being used successfully in
other Michigan cities, and If tried IN
Alma might solve the sprinkllne
question.
