New York's Big Bridges Are Useless

not located on any main lines OF
travel; in short, they do not lead to
or from anywhere.
In support of this view they point
out that none of the three bridges
built within the last few years at an
outlay of over $66,00G, 900 is used
to more than a small percentage
of its carrying capacity, while the
Brooklyn bridge, in spite of the efforts
made to divert traffic from it, remains
at the daily rush hours the scene of the
worst congestion and the most indie
cent crowding to be witnessed any,
where in the world
Moreover, according to the view of
these experts. bridges are out of date
for the purposes of rapid transporta-
ton. and are far inferior to tunnels.
Just what is to be done with these
expensive luxuries in the form of mag
nifcent bridges. If they cannot be
made to fulfill the purpose for which
they were built, is difficult to say.
At a mark-down sale they would
hardly bring 10 per cent. of their orig
inal cost. so it is probable that they
will remain where they are in the
hope that the future development Of
the city will bring them into greater
usefulness.

TO RETAIN FLAVOR IN MEAT
Escape Of ExtractiVes May Be Hin

The amount of the extractives which

ing heated. A good way to hinder
the escape of the favoring matter is
to scar the surface of the meat quickly
by heating It in fat, or the same end
may be attained by plunging 1t into
boiling water. Such facts are known
to all cooks and have recently been
studied systematically at the Illinois
experiment station in relation to the
amounts removed and the losses which
may be involved in different methods
Of cookery. Such solubility is taken
advantage of in making beef tea at
home and in the manufacture of meat
extract, the extracted material being
finally concentrated by evaporating the
water.

City VIII Pipe Water Long Distance

the water supply is really an under
ground river which comes to the sur
face at this point, forms a surface
river of its own for a mile and a
quarter to jump farther down from a
bed % feet above into the Little Man
qua river. The spring flow reaches
the river with such force that it
shoots half way over the stream be-
fore its waters fall to mIngle with
those of the Little Niangua and flow
away to the northward
The only practical use made of the
water from this spring is at Brice,
near where 1t jumps into the river.
There one-seventh of the supply is
turned into a mill race to furnish pow
er for a mill.
The water from the spring, in add.
ton to being pure, is said to possess
medicinal qualities for which it has
some local reputation.
The plan of utilizing the big supply
IN Kansas City includes building a
pipe line from the spring to the city.
This line would cross nearly all of
Dallas county, for the spring is on its
eastern border, and all of Jackson
county, for the city is on its western
border. The counties between are
Johnson, Henry. st. Clair and Hick-
DRY. The pipe line would probably
extend over $50 miles.
