THREE IN OCEAN TEN HOURS.
Water at High Tide Reaches Top of
Refuge Rock.

Centralia, Wash. Edward Wat
son, J. Heath and Miss Mabel Slus-
ser, three employees of the Churchill
glove factory in this city, had mar
row escape from drowning at Port
Granville, near Pacific Beach, Tues
day night when an incoming tide left
the party stranded on rock out in
the ocean. The three had been TAX
ing pictures and gave no thought to
the tide until it was too late to re-
treat.
The three young people were held
on the rock from noon until 10 p.
m. Tuesday. When the tide reached
its highest mark the water just
Tapped over the top of the rock. The
three were exposed to severe cold,
but will suffer no serious effects
from their experience.

Belmont School for BOYS
BELMONT. CAL

C25 miles south of San Francisco
Is trying, and we believe success
fully trying, to do for the moral, the
intellectual and the physical welfare
or its boys what thoughtful parents
most wish to have done. Contribu-
tive to this end are the location of
the school, removed from the tempta-
tions and distractions of town or city.
the fineness of its climate, the excel
lence of its buildings and other equip
ment, and the beauty and extent of
its grounds, with the wide range of
foothills surrounding them. We are
glad to have our patrons and gradu-
ates consulted. For catalogue and
other specific information address

No earth road can be maintained In
structed as to drain well, and unless
1t be kept free from ruts and holes.
The best method of maintaining an
earth road, especially prairie road
Is by the systematic use Of the road
drag. A sand road Is never good un'
der any circumstances. but certainly
Is not improved by crowning. A sand
road is at its best when moist, so II
should be left fiat. No one wants q
sand road, so. II possible, clay should
be added to. and mixed with the sand
making what is known as sand clay

The old way, and 1t is used today by
many. Of filling a mud hole with brush
with little earth on top, cannot be
too strongly condemned, and is only
permissible In cases of emergency,
when 1t Is impossible to drain the hole
or to get sand or stone to fiil it. The
overseer or foreman should In dry
weather center his work on such
places until the road is raised to a
sufficient height to drain we'll Many
overseers have brush hauled two miles
to fill mud hole, when sand Is with.

Manure and sIIaas Corn.

Twenty tons of corn silage an acre
were harvested last fall by George
l.. Hyslop of Ohio. He uses 1t for fat
tening cattle and hogs. The most
interesting thing about this yield is
that 1t is the result OF proper utiliza-
lion OF barnyard manure. The ma
nure shed has an important place on
the farm.
