CARPET FOR ROADS.
An Improved Elastic and Dustless Gin
der is Necessity.

An Improved Elastic and Dustless Gin
der is Necessity.
A lecture was recently delivered by a
member of the road board before the
Royal institution of London on THE
Road. Past. Present and Future" The
lecturer said the problem was to find
the best mode by which road should
be constructed so that its surface
would not be broken by traffic. so that
the transit might be easier for both
passengers and goods. a road which
would form neither puddle holes nor
exude mud from vehicles and create
no dust when the weather was dry.
One thing was universally recog
nized-that the road OF, the future
should be a truly bound road in which
whatever kind Of stone was used the
stone should be held together so that
it would form a crust. The lecturer
suggested that what he called car
pet or an elastic skin should be adopt
adopted as the covering.
The carpet. he thought. should be
made of bituminOus material mixed
with sand and placed on the roads in
various thicknesses according to the
nature Of the traffic 1t should go on
in liquid form. solidifying quickly. but
always remaining resilient and com
pressible and so integrating with the
crust Of the road that there could be
no shifting Of the surface below
The advantage Of such a carpet. it
was said would be to permanently pro-
tect the crust. and just as carpet on
the floor softens the step so would this
carpet for the roads silence the noise
and reduce the shock of rolling We
hicles. 1t was admitted that the origi-
nal cost of road so laid would be
more than that of mud bound road.
but spreading the cost over series of
years it would probably not be so
great. since the crust of the road it.
self would not have to be renewed

FARMERS ARE VITALITY

his products in cars at the scene OF

responsibilities of transportation.
To him falls the duty of hauling his

probably twenty miles. With bad
roads his hauling must be done when
weather conditions are most favorable.

Mud and the Direct Market.

The city of Aurora. ILL.,. opened a
city market. designed to bring farmers

The Pleiadea.

Those timekeepers the Pleiades have
been used to mark the days from the
most remote periods. T. W Fewkes
describing the fire ceremonies of the
Pueblo Indians Of Tusayan. said that,
having been present on two such occa

the error of time made by the Indians
as to the 18th of November In those
TWO years was Insignificant It was
the elimination of the Pleiades which
told the Indians the proper time for
the beginning of their rites.

Care Of EarthenWare.

Many housewives believe in boiling
new earthenware before using it. as
this effectuaIly toughens and hardens
it. This is particularly etticacious in
the case of ordinary brown kitchen
ware. the articles being placed in a
large pan of cold water which is then
brought slowly to a boil. After. being
allowed to boil for ten minutes remove
the pan and allow the water to cool
before taking out the ware.

NEW YORK. March 1.-R G. Dun &

Some additional advances are noted in

pRApsrREET's TRADE REVIEW
Developments of Week as whole OF
Satisfactory Character.

Satisfactory Character.
NEW YORK, March 1.-Bradstreet's
will say tomorrow:
While some centers Indicate that trade
is not up to expectations, developments on
the whole are of a satisfactory character.
There is nothing resembling marked &C
tlvity, but the undercurrent In general
suggests that fair gains are being made
and that improvement heretofore noted IL
being held.
The most prominent feature OF the gen
eral situation Is found In the quite gen
orally insistent demands made by retail
dealers for prompt deliveries they have
ordered. This. Of course. indicates that
stocks are low. which, coupled with the
fact that there Is no disposition TO MAKE
heavy purchases at any time, suggests
that demand will continue to be OF the
steady, insistent type. This latter feature
Is conspicuousiy in evidence in the mar
kets for dry goods, requests for which
denote the presence OF healthy require
ments for staple goods and firm price
makes OF goods. such as branded bleachet
cottons and wide shectings. the mills aft
well sold ahead In many other respects
distribution by the larger purveyors has
been OF an encouraging nature. save In
sections OF the south and In the Pacific
northwest. stt
In the iron and steel line. mill opera
lions are active. but new business is uuiet
and below shipments. while prices on
some finished goods are such as 10 moi
cate competition and desires for TONNAGE.
Pig iron, aside from basic, Is dull. Cop
