I'VE are advocating that every class

against the contract, but it saves the
cities money and cuts out some OF the
middle men and their profits.

Atkinson's Address.
state Engineer It. t. Atkinson was
the first speaker of the evening and
he told Of some Of the efforts to Sc
cure good road laws in North Dakota.
He believed that the law for county

would DO much for the state il proper

gineer. 'It is best to build the road

Talk BY Lykkem.

Of Grand Forks, told some Of the ex

most highly of the bithulitic form Q

the patented paving so highly, he re

talk he announced that he wanted it
understood that the opinions he gave
at the meeting were from the depart
ment of good roads of the government
and not personal opinions with himself.
He enlightened the Fargoans by tell
ing them that there were thirty Ave
expert highway engineers now en-
ployed by the department and that the
greater part of them were going over
the country like himself, in a greater
educational campaign.
I'm the building Of good roads," said
the government expert much care
must be taken in the preparation of
the sub grade. If water gets into the
sub grade the road will be lost and
1t must be made to properly drain.
"The split log drag should be used
on your country highways. 1t is the
best road building machine ever in
vented and has proved the most serv-
iceable for road work. Pull the drag
over the road after rain, as it would
do no particular good to drag it over
a dry road.
When the road is In a muddy state
1t should be dragged by the split log
drag. The sun then comes out and
bakes the smooth surface that has
been dragged Successive draggings
of the country road and the baking of
the sun on these makes layers of
good hard road and gives a fine baked
road. l believe that this method would
serve well in the building OF your
North Dakota roads.
while the dragging and baking is
good for the gumbo, yet there are 9TH
or ways of handling it. Add to the
gumbo mixture and good road can
be secured. Sand is used a great deal
In Louisiana where there gumbo is
similar to yours here and meets with
good success. However, 1t must have
care when once mixed, but fine re-
suits can be secured from this method
IL followed out.
"In Louisiana they burn their
roads, as shown in the picture. The
burning Of the clay makes a fine pow
dered brick road and it is equal to
any gravel road that we have ia the
gravel road countries.
'"The macadam road has always
been considered the best roads we
could make in the country until within
the last few years. However. il Is a
good road. but we now see that II

President Mackenzie discussed reci-

preferred to build the factories in
Canada rather than to make the goods

The chief speaker of the evening
stated that the department Of good

upon any patent pavings. Further
more the department does not advo-

BurreII's Address.
The Dillon herald. [volume] (Dillon, S.C.) 1894-????, 1911-05-04

DR.. Jacob Faitlovitch. The doctor
, arrived in America last week for
the purpose OF raising a fund where
by these Falashas (as they are
| called) can be educated and brought
| into modern ways of IIving.
Six hundred years before Christ,
when the first temple in Jerusalem
was destroyed and there was an
exodus of Jews, one part went to
Babylon and the other crossed over
into Etriopia. The latter, the de-
scendants of whom DR.. Failovitch
believes he has found, were lost
track of as the ages passed and
were believed to have all died out.
In 1904 and 1905 the doctor, eX-
ploring in Abyssinia, came across
these people. His Investigations
led him to believe he had found
what he was looking for In 1908
and 1909 he returned again, and
this time was convinced he had
found the remnants of the ancient
tribe which crossed into Ethiopia
(Abyssinia.)
The facial characteristics he
found to be strongly Hebraic, and
the customs unmistakable. Ortho-
dox Jewish rites were strictly ad-
hered to. There was no cooking
on the Sabbath, no work and no
lighting of fires of any kind. In the
crude temples sometimes only
thatched tents) were erected affairs
OF the orthodox sort. Some fifty
of these places of worship, few
of stone or baked clay, were found
intact.
DR.. Faitlovitch learned that un-
der the reign of Epperors Theodore
and Johannes the Falashas were
badly treated, and sometimes perse-
cuted, because of their religious be-
liefs. The present Emperor, Meme
lick, is liberal. but to offset future
rulers who may be unfriendly, the
doctor Is now aiming.
Baron Edward Rothschild was in
terested in this work OF restoring
the race in Abyssinia, and financed
DR.. Faitlovitch's first trip, accord
ing to the doctor. Other English
and Italian Jews have taken inter-
est of late, and the doctor hopes to
| raise at least a million-dollar fund
| to begin his work with.

HOW ABOUT "sIDE DREssING?''
The Kind of Fertilizer to Apply
and the Time to do it

The Kind of Fertilizer to Apply
and the Time to do it.
DR.. d. N. Barrow, South Carolina
Field Editor of the Progressive
Farmer, says:
bought from Is to 20 per cent. more
fertilizer than they used last year
and the bill is still growing.
The most common question to-day
among the farmers is, How about
side dressing?' Many, not con-
tent with placing large quantities in
the ground at the time of plant
ing, are following this up with side
dressings - sometimes with every
cultivation. Nor are they particu-
lar as to what they use as a side
dressing. AS often as not this is
complete fertilizer, many times a
combination of nitrogen and pot
ash, and, of course, nearly always
hi. rogen
L have nothing to say against the
use of nitrogen in the form of nj
trate of soda or some other easily
soluble form, when used at the
right time. But 1t does seem un-
wise to say the least, to go to the
tr6Ible and expense of making side
applications of both potash and
phosphoric acid. When we remem-
her that these two substances are
rarely If ever leached from the soil
and that both, even when in a So
called soluble form, requires some
little time to become available to
plant, 1T ~does look useless to go
to this useless expense l think
there are very few who follow this
practice who can show any material
gain from side applications Of eth
er or these substances. When used
In connection with nitrate of soda,
OF course, the mixture shows a gain.
But would not there have been
equally as large a gain had the
nitrate of soda alone been used ?
This i very much suspect.
Personally l have never seen any
evidence of gain from making a
side application of either the phos-
phorus or potash, and | am convinc-
ed that many dollar is wasted by
this practice. On the other hand
there is no question of the economy
of side applications of easily solu-
ble nitrates In the form OF nitrate
or soda. The most approved times
for this application, in quantities OF
from rs to 100 pounds per acre:
Tor corn, about the time it bunehes
TO tassel; for cotton about first
blooms; and for grain (winter)
from February 18th to March 1st.
Such applications will be found
especially valuable If the crop Is
backward from any cause. But II
Is much surer and at the same time
cheaper to apply all of the phos.
phoTic acid and potash at the time
OF planting. In fact, there is some
danger of failure to derive any ben.
eft from either of these If their ap.
rlcation is delayed until after the
plant is well started.
