UNCLE SAM IN
Good ROAD WORK
Bill to Pay For Carrying Mail
Over Highways.
TURNED DOWN BY SENATE.

Was Believed to Be ImpracticaI-Many
Things to Be Considered In National
Legislation on Subject of Improve
ment-Four Principal Problems.
Scarcely any public work is more
permanent in its character when once
undertaken than that of highway i'm
provement. When road is once lOcat-
ed it is difficult to change its location.
When once foundation has been laid
for permanent highway the laying Of
a new foundation necessitates recon-
structiOn of the entire surface.
1t is therefore imDOrtant that before
entering upon plan of national par
tcipation in highway construction we
should adopt definite and cOmpre-
hensive plan based upon anticipation
of needs and operations for many years
to come, in order that We may be GER

work of the next year and for many
years to come. Care i'll planning sys-
TEN and methods of procedure may
save us millions of dollars of waste or
bring vastly greater results than would
be attained under an i'll considered and
haphazard action.
In the last pOStOffice appropriation

er the bill had been reported from the
committee and while it was under dis

eminent uses these highways.
Such payments were to be either $15,
500 or $50 a mile, according to the
character of the road over which the
mails were transported.
This provision was rejected by the
senate for several reasons. First, it
did not provide that the federal ap-

BrittIeness Of Glass.

Brittleness of glass is due to the
quick cooling of the hot substance. 1t
is known that constant motion tends
to rearrange the molecule in any sub
stance and a similar effect is observed
when glass is boiled in a weak solu-
ton of salt in water and allowed to
cool gradually. The toughness of the
glass is increased very much and the
effect of quick heating is less disas-
trous to it.

No Coed There.

The road drag will do nothing to
improve the highway so long as it lies
unused at the side of the road.

Of Papers and Old Rubbish lie
Quite Easy to Make.

When you want to burn an accumu-

flying burning paper or the fear of
starting fire, take large wire basket
formed from piece of chicken wire
netting five feet long and about four
feet wide so rolled as to make hol-

An old tin pan fastened to the bot

City Folks Pay Well.

The supply Of good poultry has
never yet eQualed the demand. City
folks prefer poultry products direct
from the farm and will pay any price
you ask for them. If you are near
town, become acquainted with those
who use poultry products and try to
supply their wants. There will be
money in your pocket for such a
trade.

Horse owners should be particu-

into the stable, as they may have a

of which are incurable, deadly and

to human beings as well. A horse

Rome, April 16.-Pope Plus is dy-
ing. His end is but question Of a
few hours. This is the belief Of the
aged pontiff's brothers, sisters and
church dignitaries at his bedside.
This information was given me
this afternoon by Vatican attendants
in position to know the facts.
Throughout this city, hope has been
abandoned. Preparations are going
on everywhere in fashion to con-
firm the general belief that His Holt
ness will not live through the night.
At 6~p. m. this evening Rome

family were requested to remain
within close call and to hold them
selves in readiness for the final sum-
mons to the bedside. They were told
by Doctor Amici that the pope could
not possibly survive the night.

Tuesday by the house. Those who
are in favor of the sale of the Vir-
ginia bonds declare that the resolu-

as such sale can be made without

Members of the committee on ex-
penditures Of the house declare that
this clause in the resolution will
prevent the sale of the Virginia
bonds because if they were sold now
the present market price of the bonds
is $4,000 less than what the state
paid for them, and that therefore
they could not be- sold under the reso-
luton because it would entail a loss

WARNER BILL PLAY BLACKDUCK FIRST FARMERS PROTEST Vain
High School Baseball Team to Open
Season With Old Opponents Track
Men Appear For Work.

The High school base ball team has
scheduled a game with Blackjack to
be played here one week from Satur-
day. The Blackduck team lost a
game to Bemidji in this city last year
but later won from the local team on
their home grounds. 1t will be the
first game to- be played with an out
side team and the boys expect Ito
have a large crowd out to help them
win their first game. Riley or Bailey
will hold down the pitchers box with
Fuzz Johnson as catcher. Just what
other candidates will play can not
be determined until some time next
week. =
"A meeting was called to secure
candidates for track team and five
men put in their appearance. Coach
Carson will work with these men but
will try to interest more men who
would make good runners. AS soon
as the baseball nine is selected from
the present candidates there will
probably be more men trying for the
track as nearly all of their interest
appears to have turned to base ball.
