EXHIBITS AT ROAD CONGRESS
Complete Demonstration of Govern
ment's Work on Public Highways
Will Be Shown to Farmer.

An interesting exhibit at the Ameri-
can Road congress to be held next fall
will be presented by the United
States department of agriculture. Sec
rotary Wilson of the department has
authorized Director Logan Waller
Page of the Office of public roads to
give a complete exhibit of the gov
ernment's work on the public roads of
the country, showing how unimproved
roads hurt the farmer and how i'm
proved roads aid not only the farmer,
but the consumer.
Four of the biggest associations
which are working for the improve
ment Of public roads are consolidating
their forces in order to make the next
American Road congress the biggest
affair Of its kind in the history of this
country; they are the American Road
Builders association, the American
Association for Highway Improve
ment, the American Automobile asso-
citation and the National Association
of Road Material and Machinery
Manufacturers. Ali of these associa-
lions have previously held separate
conventions. 1t is expected that farm
ers' associations and other associa-
tons interested in the improvement of
public highways will likewise take
part in the congress.

COUNTRY ROADS OF CONCRETE
One That Cannot Become Muddy and
at All Times Provide Secure Safe
Footing Is Desired.

1t is becoming more and more evil
dent to farmers and those interested
in good country roads that a more
lasting material than earth or the or
binary macadam must be used. Near
Coshocton, O., two concrete roads
have been built which have success
fully withstood one severe winter and
show no wear either from traffic or
weather
The first view shows a 10-foot con-
crete strip laid on the old roadbed.
The second shows an 18-foot strip of
the full width of the road. The lat
ter joins the macadam road which is
deeply worn and rutted. Concrete in
the first case replaced a block stone
road, which had given away under
heavy floods and travel, and the other,
a limestone macadam road, whose life
was only one year, due to heavy traf-
fic. At present the 18-foot strip road
carries all travel from the concrete
road and also from another brick road
and shows much less wear than the
brick.
A country road which cannot be
come muddy, which will give at all
times a secure footing for horses and
which will need little or no repairs,
would be the greatest improvement in
farm conditions that has been made
in recent years. Concrete seems to be
the only material combining these
qualities with low cost. A decade
from now, our country roads of con
crete may equal our city pavements
in efficiency under all conditions of
weather.

ECZEMA DISFIGURED BABY

Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but a few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his little
face was disfgured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat We tied
little bags of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
1--WE consulted two doctors at Chi
cage, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine Of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody CSigned) Mrs. H.

THEIR MOST JOYOUS MOMENT
Of the Trio, Probably representative
Redfield Had the Best Occa-
sion to Smile.

The talk in one of the cloak rooms
Of congress turned to the thought Of
the happiest moments in ones life.
Senator Bailey said his came the day
he wore his first pair Of trousers. And
Paul Rowland of Ohio declared his
big moment of JOY was when he was
permitted once to drive chariot in
a pony and dog show parade
Representative Redield, who is a
wise chap, even if he does hail from
Brooklyn, said it was when he was
going to school and trying to master
long division. Three or four aisles
over from where he sat a boy yawned
1t was not an ordinary yawn, but one
Of such genuine expression of feeling
toward things in general that it at
tracted Redfeld's attention. He was
fortunate in having a paper wad right
at hand, ready for any emergency,
and he aimed this at the boys caver-
nous mouth. The wad went right
square into the goal and-well, Fourth
of July fireworks are tame to the
stunts that boy did in the next few
minutes.
He says he almost smiled once on
shipboard when the vessel gave a
lurch and threw a platter full of
beefsteak, gravy and all. over the
open-faced shirt front of a pOmpous
passenger across the table.

Floral Table Decorations.

Have you ever seen a table in sum-
mer decorated with wild carrot? 1t
costs nothing and when arranged in
masses in a deep green bowl is cool
and dainty. If you can get the seed
pods to mix in with the carrot the eff
feet is heightened. In selecting a
floral centerpiece strive for variety
Have a different decoration for each
meal. Even if flowers must be used
more than once, as is natural where
one has a small garden, it takes little
time to have a separate decoration for
each meal Al breakfast keep the
scheme simple. Some people will not
use flowers at this meal, but a few
blooms in slender vase are sure to
attract The dinner decoration should
have thought put on it.

WILLING to Do Square Thing.

Brand Whitlock, who doubles as
mayor of Toledo and as a literary
man, had a Chicago career. He was a
reporter on the old Herald when Pete
Dunno and Charley Seymour were his
side-kicks. Charley Chaplin was one
Of his city editors.
Chaplin is now city editor of the
New York Evening World, and this
story was told to Whitlock lately by
a correspondent who had him under
interviewing fire:
A new reporter had been hired on
the Evening World, and he went to
work on a Wednesday. The pay day
on the paper is Thursday. In the
course of a week, when the recruit re-
ceived his first envelope, he found
that he was a day short. He went to
Chaplin and complained, only to get
this:
'Oh, well, never mind. When I fire
you, III fire you a day earlier and that
win make it come out even"

NOVEL BRAID DAISIES
THEY ARE MADE OF REVIVED
RICK-RACK TRIMMING.
Cabochon Of Them Placed at the Side
Of White Lingerie or Straw Hat
Gives Z Most Pleasing
Effect

On one Of the expensive little hats
for children seen the other day
wreath Of daisies was used with great
effect 1t was a model sent out by a
noted miIIiner in Paris, yet any
needlewCman could reproduce it. The
whole story hinges around the making
Of the daisies
DO you remember the oId-fashioned
rick-rack braid used on our baby
dresses? In those days our mothers
were busy in sewing together this ser
pentine braid in straight bands, in
more intricate flower designs, or in
motifs that we're inset on yOkes and
sleeves. Rick-rach trimming has been
revived. 1t is so easy and so very ef-
feCtive that it comes back with a doU-
bic appeal.
The braid is serpentine and general
~ white in color. It can be sewed at
the points and very easily twisted in a
flower that, when a yellow center Of
braid or linen is added. resembles a
daisy with pleasing fidelity.
Some daisies can be made in double
rows; some in triple rows. The daisy
form then changes to a dahIia; but
whatever the flower may be, it is at
tractive
When one daisy is made, you will re-
peat the process, which is very easy,
and add the daisies in a straight line
or in an irregular wreath, one follow
ed by two or three in a group.
a huge cabochon Of these braid
daisies placed at the side Of a white
lingerie hat or d fine straw shape will
look new and will remind one of the
popular field flowers that have been
accorded so much favor this spring.
From the millinery idea the clever
woman can depart into other fields of
dress. On dainty little flower frocks
of figured batiste, null or muslin, lit
tle clusters of rick-rack daisies can be
placed at the girdle, on the ends of
sashes or in garlands that hold UP the
drapery at the side of a skirt
A high waist line can be outlined
with these pretty little flowers. As
the rick-rack braid is procurable in
several widths, daisies can be made in
several sizes, and a delightful variety
can be given by grouping little and
bis flowers.
Rick-rack can be bought at the art
needlework department or at the no
ton counter of any large store. There
promises to be much work in this new
flower idea.

BULB WORM OR STEM MAGG0T
Little Pest Works Its Way Down into
Crown OF Wheat Plant end
Causes Much Damage.

The wheat bulb worm or stem mag
got causes much damage in the wheat
field These little green worms change
to pupal form in april and May, be
coming little yellow flies, much re
sembiing q small housefy, in June
These flies lay their eggs on the upper
wheat leaves. The eggs hatch into
the little greenish-white worms with
the small black feeding hooks at one
end These worms crawl down the
wheat leaf and feed on the stalk, caus-
ing the part Of the stalk above where
they are feeding to turn white. This
brood OF worms stays in the straw till
July or August, when it changes into
another brood Of flies The flies. by
laying eggs on volunteer wheat and on
grasses, produce another brood of
flies by September or October. 1t was
this third brood that laid the eggs
which Matched into the little green
worms We speak Of. This brood of
worms does damage by working its
way down into the crown of the wheat
plant, often cutting of the central
stem and in this way causing consid-
cradle damage.
If it were not for the numerous para
site enemies of this wheat pest, it
might become more dangerous than
the Hessian fly, which it resembles
very much in its general habits. In
one respect it is even worse than the
Hessian fly, in that it can feed on
many other grasses beside wheat.
There are few practical measures of
controlling the pest. Rotation Of crops
and late planting of winter wheat are
not as effective as with Hessian ny.
