FOR GOOD ROADS.
The Part of Asphalt in Good Road.
Making.

In the original Bible the same word
is used for salt and for oil or asphalt
because both came from springs, and
both are obtained from the Dead Sea,
and when asphaltic oil is substituted
for salt in the well-known quotation,
IF the salt (oiD have lost his SAVIOR
volatile portion) wherewith shall it
be sailed? it is thenceforth good for
nothing (asphalt) but to be cast out
and to be trodden under foot of men, ;"
This sounds prophetic in view of the
thousands of miles of asphalt pave
ments in modern cities. Far more i'm
portant, however, is the use, now in
its infancy but rapidly increasing, of
asphaltic oils for sprinkling over mac
adam roads to prevent dust and obvi-
vate the damage done by rapidly NOV
ing automobiles in tearing out the
surface. The secretary of agriculture
in his address to the first National
Good Roads Congress, mentioned this
treatment as solving the important
problem Of rapid automobiling over
macadam roads.
Four kinds of asphaltic oils are now
prepared for this special purpose bv
taking the valatile matter out Of Texas
oils and other similar asphaltic oils,
until the residue contains 30 to 60 per
cent of asphalt, the product according

EXEMPT SMALL HOMES.
Tax on Cash a Farce-Tried in Idaho
For 40 Years.

Governor Hawley is determined to
work for certain exemptions in the
new revenue system he hopes to es-
tablish for the state by means of the
special session of the Legislature.
Il would like to see every home in
Idaho up to the value of $2500 and
occupied by the owner entirely eX-
empted from taxation" the governor
said yesterday in speaking of his plans.
by this / mean," he explained, "the
building and other improvements, but
not the land.
Il would also exempt every orchard
in the state up to the time when it be-
gins to bear and produce revenue to
the owner. | don't believe in punish
ing man for his enterprise and pub
lie spirit in building little home
II would also exempt from taxation
in the state all cash and credit items.
| would not favor exemption in this
case, because | think cash and credits
should not pay taXes-on the con-
trary, | believe that they should pay,
but forty years experience in Idaho
has demonstrated, to my satisfaction
at least, that they cannot be taxed.
The effort in this state has resulted in
failure, and we might just as we'll be
honest with ourselves now and ac-
knowledge this"
Governor Hawley has other ideas
with reference to taxing banks, bank
stocks, undivided profits, and other
items, which he intends to take up
with his commission that has in hand
the preparation of the bill to be SUBJ
mitted to the legislature and with the
legislature.
But" he said, ''this is not matter
of my own individual opinion. l have
every confidence in the men at work
on the problem. / will assist them all
can by suggestion or otherwise, but
they will prepare the measure and
nothing will go into it that does not
meet with the approval of all it's mem
bers.
"As matter of fact" the governor
continued, 81 am firm believer in
the Henry George theory of taxation in
a modified form, although I realize
fully that 1t could not be established
in this or any other state without years
of preparation.
"But / do hold that the home of the
man of moderate means should be ex-
empt from taxation and / shall be
highly pleased II the legislature adopts
this idea. l have never believed that
a man should be penalized for build
ing little home for himself and fam
lily. On the contrary. believe, and
have always believed. that every man
in the community should be encour-
aged to build home. BY exempting
home improvements up to $4,000 I be-
lieve a great boost will be given to
BODYBUILDING and homecoming"
Governor Hawley said he had receiv-
ed from George w. Edgington of Idaho
Falls, request for the recall Of his
resignation as member of the lower
house from Bingham county, and that
he had also received the resignation of
Ravenal Macbeth as water commits
sioner for the second district, to take

with the requirements.
Chiefly because of the demand for
oil for this use the production of ma
tural asphalts as well as "oil asphalts"
is rapidly increasing, as is shown in
a phamphlet on production of asphalt,
related btumens, and btuminous rock
by David T. Day, of the United States
geological survey, published as an adj
vance chapter of Mineral Resources of
the United States, 1910
The United States produced 260,0S0
tons of asphaltic material in 1910,
whereas only 228,655 tons were pro-
duced in the previous year. The great
est increase was in the production of
asphaltic road oil, which rose from
12S,S61 tons in 1909 to 159,424 short
tons in 1910. This product was worth
$2,207 1887, as against $1,558,463 in
1909, which shows an advance in price
as we'll as quantity, including active
demand
Evidently the new sprinkling or
penetration" method of applying as
phalt to roads is permanently estab-
lished but there are asphalts and as
phalts, as is well indicated by the
names with which the various sorts
are labeled, such as tabbyite, WED
gerite, aeonite, grahamite, gilsonite,
host of other names, which show the
different varieties. There are ways of
identifying these varieties, and the re-
port just issued contains a table show
ing the CHIEF characteristics of each
kind. The great problem for the road
maker, now that the use of asphalt is
approved, is to select the kind Of as

Good New Years Resolves

The New Year is a good time to
leave the low-vaulted past" to drop
the yesterdays, to forget bitter men,
cries.
Resolve that when you cross the line
between the old and the new year you
will close the door on everything in
the past that pains and cannot help
you. Free yourself from everything
which handicaps you, keeps you back
and makes you unhappy. Throw away
all useless baggage, drop everything
that is drag, that hinders your prog
ress.
Enter the door of the new year with
clear slate and free mind. Don't be
mortgaged to the past. and never look
back.-Orison SWEET Marden in Sue
cess Magazine.

The SUCCESSFUL FARMER.
Must Have a System and Use His
Brains as Well as His Hands.

There are two types of farmers quite
common on our American farms. The
farmer who works hard from daylight
till dark and never seems to get much
out OF his labor except a living or the
advance in his land for which he is not
entirely responsible, and the farmer
who seldom has to work overtime,
finds time to visit his neighbors and
enjoys life to it's full measure, while
his crops, stock and bank account
thrive.
There is reason for this differ
ence and We need not go far to seek
the cause. The first named farmer
starts in anywhere and usually ends
nowhere. He is without a system. He
works with his hands but fails to use
his head. He does not look far
enough ahead, depends upon Drawn in
stead of brain and Drawn to carry on
his farm operations. He may have
plenty of pluck, perseverance, integ-
rity, but lacks the one essential, sys-
tenn.
The successful farmer is forehand-
ed. He plans things and keeps more
than one kite to his string. Rotation
of crops, stock breeding, farm ac-
counts are studied by him. Good seed
is planted at the right time in the
right place. He doesn't go after
proposition until he is sure it is for his
best interests. He studies his bust
ness. Economy of time is brought
about by rushing the step in the busy
season instead of extending the hours.
True, he may not always be success
full In every operation, but where re-
suits of work are weighed at the end
of the harvest the profit side of the
ledger shows the brain and brawn.-
