BEAUTY OF THE WORLD.

The rainbow is of quite as much

Clouds are not only Gods sprink-
ling-pots to increase the supply OF
potatoes, they are Gods paints which

feast of beauty.
Apple trees are not designed to

it, and shy treasures only discernible

HIGH VALUE OF GOOD ROADS
Big Point In Favor Of Construction IL
Economy Of Time and Force in
Reaching Market.

No one questions the statement
that good roads have a high money
value to the farmers of the nation, and
1t may be said that this alone is sufi.
ctent to justify the cost of their con.
struction as rapidly as practicable un-
der an efficient, economical and equit-
able system of highway Improvement.
The big point in favor of this expen-
diture Is the economy of time and
force in transportation between farm
ard market, enabling the growers to
take advantage of fluctuations in buy
ing and selling, as we'll as enhancing
the value of real estate. 1t is esti-
mated that the average annual loss
from poor roads is rs cents an acre,
while the estimated average increase
resulting from improving all the pub
lie roads is So The losses in five
years would aggregate $2,432 for ev-
cry section Of land, or more than
enough to improve two miles of pub
lie highway. The necessity of good
roads is obvious, as 1t would enhance
the value of each section of land
about $3.50, or more than double the
estimated cost of two miles OF i'm
proved highway, which constitutes the
quota for $40 acres of land.

u Wcaksns the River Levses and Il
Formidable Destroyer
Of cropa

It Is unfamiliar information. but
not surprising upon being examined,
that the crawfsh is constant men,
ace to the Mississippi Ieyees. This
fresh-water crustacean, which resem-
bles the lobster, though of small size,
VIGOROUSLY has a fancy for burrow-
ing into dikes The floods in the
lower Mississippi have called atten-
ton to its activity. It is accused of
having weakened construction which
had been calculated to hold against
the utmost pressure of water. Truly
surprising, however, is the evidence
that the crawfsh is also crop pest.
Imagine a lobster invading your gar
den with malice prepensel That is
what is observed on plantations adj
joining the habitat of the crawfsh.
according to an official of the biolog-
ical survey in the department of ag-
riculture. In some sections it is dis
covered to be a destroyer of young
plants little less formidable than
some of the birds and mammals
against which the planter must pro-
tect his fields.
Over wide area the depredations
OF the crawfsh embarrass the culti-
walton of cotton and corn. If rains
occur after planting then an invasion
may particularly be expected. The
pest will burrow, apparently, SO long
as water is in sight. Thousands of
holes to the acre have been discov-
cred after succession of night rains.
The readiest way of combating these
curious mischief makers appears to
be to assemble the plantation hands,
armed with clubs, and await the APP
pearance of the crawfish from their
holes.-Providence Journal.

Signs Declared a Fire Menace

olgnS declared a Fire Mefaea :.
Portland, Melt is understood
that a concentrated effort will be
made on the part of a number o.
Portland's citizens to have an ordi-
nance passed by the city government
requiring all of the large signs that
have been erected on the tops OF
many of the buildings about the city
to be removed and to prevent the
further erection of signs Of thai
charafteEs So much adverse com
ment has been heard relative to them
that 1t is probable that a petition
will be offered at the next meeting
of the city fathers, asking that the
ordinance be passed without delay.
1t was learned that a number of the
largest signs had been erected with
out permission of the building in
spection. Chief Flaherty was asked
regarding the sign question and he
was most emphatic in denouncing
them. He said: Il will do every
thinGQbsible to have them removed.
They are a great menace to build
ings upon which they have been
placed and also to adjacent build
ings. They are Of such tremendous
size that they would hamper the
working Of the fire department in
case of a fire. am not only in favor
of the removal Of the big, ungainly
signs, but | am in favor of having
the ordinance relative to small

signs and are a source of great in
convenience when it is necessary to
erect ladders to fight fires. There
are a number Of signs that are all

which are firmly secured and are

harm in passing an ordinance cover

property in case of fire, | shall make
the same recommendations that | do
