Remove All Rubbish and Preserve
Trees to Make Highways Attractive.
No matter how smooth aud well
constructed the travelled road may be.
If the roadsides are not cared for the
highway as a whole WI not give
good impression All rubbish should
be removed, the excavations should be
filled aud embellishments smoothed and
planted with grass wherever It will
grow. Unsightly brush should be cut
and grubbed out. Sometimes. however.
the brush and small trees If suitably
trimmed add TO the attracuveuess Of
the roadside.
All trees which are ornamental or
which have value as shade trees
should be preserved and protected I'M
less they grow so close together as TO
make a dense shade In hot. dry eli
mates particularly and indeed in most
places trees are considerable factor
IN reducing the cost of maintenance
since they lessen the evaporation Of
the moisture from the macadam. In
exposed places. where the sweep OF
the wind would be otherwise unbro-
ken. they serve to prevent in a meas
ure the blowing away OF the binder
from the road surface. Unfortunately
IN such places il is often difficult to
make trees grow. Care in the selection
Of the kinds Of trees best suited to the
locality is important.
A good arrangement along roadsides
for trees with large tops is to set them
about fifty feet apart on each side, but
alternating so that there will be a tree
every twenty-five feet along the road,

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.
think It has improved the attractive
ness Of rural life. l think 1t has caus-
ed the population to remain on the
soil more than in any other country
You do not find that tendency to urban
population in France and England that
you do in this country"

HOW TO KEEP THIS ROAD
FOR YEARS.

This road was constructed for
your use.
Don't drive in one track. Avoid
making ruts.
II all use one place all the
wear will be in one place and
make . rut.
II you use a little care and do
not drive exactly where the last
wagon did the wear will be dis
tributed, which will keep the
surface smooth and the road
will remain good for years;
otherwise il will soon be rutted
and the smooth surface gone.

Making a Good Dirt Roadway-They

Long ago | became convinced that II
We were to have good roads in our day
and generation we must seek some 9th
er methods of doing the work and
some other material than macadam.
For while stone roads have and per

for certain districts on account Of
the lack Of facilities for good drain

points in the construction Of earth
roads. or where the character Of the
soil is such that good earth roads eau
not be made or for thoroughfares
where the travel is great and the vaiu-
alton high enough to stand the taxa

small proportion Of all the roads.
II must be remembered that no mat

The cards are 3l4 by 81 inches in
size and are given to the men in
charge Of road work for distribution e.
passersby. This calls direct attention
to the subject and seems to be NOR
effective than placards tackled at the
side Of the road. Instead Of a nasty
glance in passing. the patrons Of the
roads put the cards in their pockets to
be reread and given more mature con
siderati0n.

In soils full of loose stones or even
small powders the drag has done
good service. The loose stones are
drawn into a windrow down the cen
ter Of the road, while the earth is de-
posted around the powders in such
a way that the surface is leveled.
The loose stones in the center Of the
road should Of course be removed.
Where there is a large proportion Of
small stones or gravel the drag win
keep down the inequalities In the sur

Reeves pheasants are the largest of
the pheasant family and have proved
a great game bird in England but so
far as known Oregon is the first state
to stock up with this variety just as 1t
was the first to successfully plant the
China ring-neck which has been so
prolific in its propagation. Many of
the states have been wasting their
money on the Hungarian partridge.
The pheasants just bought are paid
for out of the general game fund, of
which there is now $4,000. on hand.
Mr.. Stevenson gives it out as his in
tention to spend a portion of this
money in an effort to restock the fields
and streams. The birds bought from
Mr.. Simpson are of exceptional size
and thoroughly acclimated.

o'BRIEN TO BUILD
A NEW RAILROAD

]. p. O'Brien, c. G. Sutherland and
James G. Wilson today filed articles
of incorporation with the County
Clerk for the Grants Pass & Western
Railroad company, says the Portland
Telegram. The object of the new in
corporation Is the construction and
operation of a line of railroad and
telegraph system from a joint con-
Meeting with the Oregon & California
railroad at or near Grants Pass. or
some practicable route in a general
southwesterly direction to Crescent
City, Cal. The company is given the
power Of issuing bonds and making
loans for the financing of the pro-
ject. The capital stock is 100000
and the principal place of business Is
Portland.
This move by the vice-president and
general manager Of the Hartman
system of the northwest reveals his
motive in that hair-raising automo-
bile tour over the rugged Coast Range
from Grants Pass to Crescent City
with Traffic Manager r. B. Miller
some months ago. Hitherto Mr.. o.
Brien has steadfastly denied that the
lHtClCots WCiC e''
invasion of that rich timbered belt be-
tween Grants Pass and Crescent City,
but 1t no. seems that there is more
railroad t;ilding "in the air." for the
Grants Pass & Western will not only
open a rich timber belt, but will give
the great fruit and other agricultural
industries in the lower end of Oregon
easy access to water transportation at
tidewaters.
There may also lurk behind this new
road a plan to block the Hills from
projecting a line to the Pacific coast
in that general direction which might
easily be done from Medford, the
Western terminus of the Pacific &
Eastern, which Hill recently bought
and of which John F. Stevens Is pres
ident. In addition to Vice-President
and General Manager O'Brien, other
incorporators are Hartman officials
Curtis G. Sutherland is Mr.. O'Brien's
assistant and James G. Wilson handles
the corporation branch of the Harri-
man legal department in Portland.

the Koontz hall, the girl dormitory,
which building was donated to the
school four years ago. 1t is alleged that
the academy has not paid the interest
on the $4,000 given to purchase the
building and that it has not kept the
building insured in favor of the plain
tiff. The academy apparently lived
up to the terms of the contract until
January 1 of this year, since which
time it has been in arrears.

Rode Bucking Horses.

That Lee Caldwell, one of the
champion bronco busters in this Sec

for the big roundup is evident from
the amount of experience he is get
ting. He rode two horses yesterday
and the second riding proved to be
very pretty contest. A willy iron
gray horse fresh from the wilds Of

ing ridden and used most Of the tao
tics familiar to bucking horses in his
efforts to dislodge the young cowboy.
Caldwell proved master Of the situa-

danger Of losing his seat.
