BUILDS LARGEST or NESTS
Jungle Fowl OF Australia Constructs q
Substantial Mound About Eli
teen Feet High.

The jungle fowl OF Australia 10 the
bird that builds the largest and most
substantial of all nests. It seeks out
secluded spot and then begins the
work that will keep it busy for a
stretch OF weeks, according to natural
lists who have studied the bird Of Aus
tralia. It gathers leaves. grass, twtgs
and dozens OF other materials, weav-
ing them together SO skillfully as to
construct a mound that is qualified to
Withstand any stress OF weather.
The bird tolls away until its mound
IL about is feet high, the circumfer-
ence at the base being often $50 feet.
At the apex the nest is made, and
from this perch the bird is able to
see the approach Of any one of its jun
gle foes In time to take defensive
measures.
The bush turkey of Australia also
adopts similar methods in building
Its nest, although the foundation is
not so large. Instead 4. making a
moundlike base, the turkey constructs
one in the shape OF pyramid. Natu-
ralists say that It takes the combined
strength of several men to move one
OF these big nests.

salt on French Roads.

AS a general rule the roads in and
around French towns are tarred at the
commencement of the summer in or
der to abate the dust nuisance. 1t has,
however. been found that tar, al
though excellent in the case of maca-
damized roads, is OF little or no value
where car lines exist and paved street
crossings intersect the roads In every
direction, as tarring cannot be carried
out on stones.
The authorities. basing their action
on the well known hygrometrical prop.
critics OF common salt, have made q
test Of It's value In laying the dust.
Twenty yards of roadway have been
sprinkled literally with salt and then
watered freely II the results are sat

Bile to tar the majority Of the streets,

the thirty-seven species OF pine
grown in the United States area.
No one specie grows In all the states
yet, with perhaps one exception, no
state is without one or more. Some
occupy large regions In considerable
abundance. while others are so scarce
that few persons ever see and recog-
nize them. Yet no species of pine is
so scare that It is not made in some
way to serve mans needs.
Four important timber trees Of the
southeastern United States are usual
" grouped as one in the lumber mar
kets and are sold under the common
name CT yellow pine. They are the
long-leaf zine, short-lea pine, lcblolly
pine and Cuban pine. While in APP
pearance the woods OF these four
trees ale so nearly alike thar T. ~
sometimes difficult to distinguish one
from the other, still in some particu-
lars tEtre IS considerable difference.
Although the long-leaf pine white

MIDLAND CONTINENTAL
Line Is Now Real Railroad With Le-
oomotivs-5usy Laying Track
at Present.

Forbes Republican: Last Friday
while at Edgeley. We editor in COM
pany with s. r. Crowner, went out
to where the Midland Continental
railroad is being constructed. we
found contracting firm and a crew
OF men and teams busy laying rails
and grading for side tracks.
The Midland has locomotive OF
their own which is labeled, Midland
Continental r. R., No. 100. which is
being used to haul out rail and ties
to the end of the road where a crew
OF men are busy laying same. About
three miles of rail out of Edgeley so
far has been laid and in all about
eighteen or twenty miles will be fn-
ished this fall and three new stations
opened up along this new line.
At present temporary water tank
has also been erected by this COM
pany and soon a depot will be built
In Edgeley. Why should they make
these improvements in Edgeley IL this
road was only an extension of the Mil
waukee? We made several inquiries
whether there was anything to the
rumors that this road is only an ex-
tension Of the Milwaukee road, and we
were assured that they had no con-
nection whatsoever with the Mil
Waukee, but were an Independent line
and would some day be the largest
trunk line running north and south.
from Winnipeg to the Gulf of Mexico,
and that within two years the road
would be built through Forbes.
1t Is the intention of the Midland
road to have several contracting crews
at work next year on this proposed
road and push this road along as fast
as possible.
We honestly believe that this
road will be built through Forbes,
as per the company's survey, in the
near future and make our town a
very important point.
