Widespread interest throughout the
state on the question of better roads
is beginning to show the results OF
the government road exhibit and the
road lectures by the expert from the
Office of public roads in Washington.
Great credit is due Commissioner
Gilbreath and State Engineer Atkin-
son in having secured this exhibit for
the exposition, because the good done
in creating the desire for better road
conditions in the state is incalculable.
Other cities, Fargo, Minot and Val.
ley City, have been quick to realize
the importance Of the new activity
created and have promptly taken ad.
vantage of the opportunity to obtain
expert road advice at no cost.
United States Highway Engineer
Burrell reports that the three cities
named have arranged through Wash
ington to have him deliver illustrated
road talks under the auspices of the
commercial clubs, lecturing at Fargo
on the 18th instant, at Minot on the
Goth, and Valley City on the 21st, all
three cities desiring special talks on

All About the Codfish.

Bill Nye on Goldfish: "A CORE
spondent of the New York Post saws
that the Goldfish frequents tho table
lands of the sea- The Goldfish no
doubt does this to secure as nearly az
possible a dry, bracing atmosphere.
This pure air of the submarine table
lands gives to the Goldfish that breadth
of chest and depth of lungs that va
have so often noticed. The glad, free
smile of the Goldfish is largely at.
tributed to the exhilaration of this
oceanic altitoodleum.. The correspon.
dent further says that the Goldfish
subsists largely on the sea cherry
Those who have not had the pleasure
OF seeing the Goldfish climb the cherrr
tree in search Of food, or clubbing the
fruit from the heavily laden branches
with chunks Of coral, have missed a
very fine sight. The Goldfish, when at
home rambling through the submarine
forests, does not wear his vest unbut
toned, as he does while loafing around
the grocery stores of the United
States"

Food Value of Chestnufc

The fruit of the chestnlt tree is
nearly as valuable as trea1 and more
valuable than potatoes for dietetic
purposes. Two pounds of chestnuts
contain 118 grammes Of starch and
eight of fat
The annual production of chestnuts
tn France is over 100000 Quintals of
220 pounds. That means food for
many workmen. But the hide-tanners
keep the product from the food-mar-
ket by buying it in large quantities
for use in their business. Producers
make more profit by selling their
chestnuts for tanning than by dis
posing of them for food.-Harper's
