WOULD CREATE ONE
ROAD COMMISSIONER
PLAN is BEING SUGGESTED TO
DO AWAY WITH SEVERAL OF
THE OFFICERS.

A plan is on foot among certain
Marry countians to have the present
legislature enact law placing the
workhouse and the Maury county road
system all under one superintendent,
thus abolishing several of the offices
now connected with these institutions.
The plan is as yet too indefinite to
announce In detail, but 1t ia practical
ly certain that something will be
done toward working it out in the
meeting to be held In chancery court
room Feb. 6.
1t is proposed to have the superin-
tendent OF the workhouse to act also
as road commissioner for the wrole
county, and to be placed on a salary.
such as the county superintendent of
schools. The workhouse and the pub
lie roads are allied, inasmuch as the
prisoners of the former are forced to
work out their sentences In several In
stances on the roads. It Is claimed
by the promoters of the scheme that
this new regime, IL 1t becomes a law,
will save the county a good deal OF
money during the year. ThS plan
will be put up to the representatives
from this county IL 1t is completed In
time to get it before the present ses-
sion of the legislature.

PREVENTION OF SUMMER AL.
 MENTS

The summer ailments of adult fowls are mostly digestive disorders and may be mainly avoided by simple prevention. They are mostly caused by fNth. vermin, bad feed. ill feeding. lack of pure drink and heat exposure. Hot weather is the great microbe and bug breeder Heated filth is a hot bed of deadly disease. Therefore clean the henhOuse and yards early, remove all dirty litter. dropplngs. scraplngs of floors and yards to the field or garden. spray the whole outfit with lime and make all things new
 Old time lime is good for humans and for hens. It brightens and gives 8 solar plexus to smells bacteria and 10 bugs: therefore let more humans join the Limekiln club. wear fewer bugs and live longer. Treat fowls fn- diyiduaIly for lice furnish a bath where they may dust for crawlers and occasionally sprinkle oak wood ashes in the mash to kill the worms that cause intestinal troubles.
 Pure water kept cool by shade Is ex-
 
 often with venetian red helps to pre- serve hen health and prevent cholera and kindred complaints. as the lime. magnesia and iron of the red are very beneficial.
 Hens should be kept from excessive fat and heating food, therefore corn should be fed sparingly. Wheat and oats are the summer grains. Moist mash should be fed often, and greens are an absolute necessity. Grit and charcoal should be kept before the flock. and natural or artificial shade should be provided.
 Save your hens from excessive heat by day and night. for heat prostration brings many ills to hen and men.
 If possible have free range. Its cool shade. tender herbage natural ami nal food. pleasant exercise. pure air and clean environment are the sine qua non for success.

The Expressive Face.

The most expressive face is not one which writbes or agonizes with every sorrowfuI feeling or twists and squirms with every amusing situation II is rather the one which retains 8 calm exterior while the strongest emotions of the soul play upon it with their lights and shadows.
 The face should be the smooth cur tain on which the heart exhibits it's various pictures without disturbing it not the stage which requires the shift ing of scenery for every act
 The reason why so many beautiful faces are to be found in a convent is. in a great measure. due 10 the daily habit of composing the features in long hours of meditafion and prayer. Unmarred by contending emotions. the features are gradually nodded into harmonious outlines. Train your fea- lures to romposure and avoid all grz nlaeine hsbiis

Already a number of teams have entered and are in training for the event, which promises to be the most important gathering of miners ever assembled.
 Arsenal Park is the site of the testing station of the Bureau of Mines and the experts of the bureau are busy arranging for unique pro gram The arrangement for the first field meet are in the hands of H. NJ. Wilson, engineer in charge of the Bureau of Mines, Pittsburg, Pa, Major Charles Lynch. Medical Corps, L. $. A., in charge of the First Aid department of the Red Cross and Dr. M E.

The work of the first aid 10 the injured is 10 give the proper emergency treatment so that injuries will be lessoned in seriousness and some of the fatal1- ties perhaps avoided. In the Authra-
 ite region of Pennsylvania the first aid work has been highly developed through the good worK of the Amer ican Red Cross and many lives have been saved through the prompt and efficient work of the members of the various corps This movement has become so popular in the an thracite region that annual field con tests between the teams are held each year in the presence of thou sands of spectators. Prizes are giy- en 10 the winners by the American Red Cross and the operators join in with contributions of badges and cups. Following the example of the anthracite region and directly as the result of the instruction in first aid to the injured and in the helmet rescue work being introduced
