Road Building

The fact we have the ma
terial right at our doors Tor
permanent road building
should afford us much salts
faction and encourage us III
the building ofgoodroads to
every nook and corner OF the
county. The good roadseN-
pert recently sent here as
sures us of the value OF our
material and says with the
proper management we are
in position to build as good
roads as any section OF the
country. We are fortunate
in having three wide-aWake
business men as commission
ers. They are not content
with what they read and are
told about road building
but are now inspecting roads
built and being built in other
sections OF the state. They
are inspecting the work be-
ing done in other counties
and will profit by what they
are able to see and learn on
similar work being done at
other places.

Mr.. Dodge the road engi-
neer here last week says it
is wonderful the amount OF
enthusiasm for good roads
all over the United States.
His work carries him to
every state in the Union and
he says this demand for bet
ter highways is growing i'll
leaps and bounds. He says
the demands now made on
the road department OF the
Government for assistance
in the way OF Engineers in
road building is thirty times
greater than it was only 4
few years ago. The people
all over this country are ed
ucating themselves to the
value OF good roads and the
start we have made in this
county will be an eyeopener
and no doubt be the forerun
ner OF we'll built roads in
every section OF the county.

HUMUs IN THE SOIL.
This Valuable Substance ls Due to the
Presence Of Bacteria.

This Valuable Substance ls Due to the
Presence Of Bacteria.
We find vast difference in the fer
tility Of different soils. writes {. l..
Macarthur, assistant bacteriologist. Ida
no experiment station. For instance
sand. although 1t may contain all the
Elements necessary for plant food. is
still found barren and without vegeta-
ton Garden soils, however, may con
tain less plant food than the sand and
still be considered very fertile. This
difference is usually due to the sub
stance known as humus. Where the
humus Is present the different ele-
ments are present in a form that plants
can use This humus is the remains OF
previous plants and animals When
plants die that part which is not used
for commercial purposes usually goes
back 10 the soil In much the same
way great deal of the animal body
reaches the soil.
As soon as this material reaches the
soil IL is attacked by millions Of bacte-
ria. which are known as the decOmpQ-
sition hacteria. These bacteria soon
cause great many changes in the ma.
terial. each change tending to break
down the complex into the more sim
pie compounds A part Of this material
is set free in the form Of gases and is
lost in the atmosphere, but the greatest
part remains in the soil as partly de-
composed mass and is known as hu-
mus
Different Glasses Of bacteria continue
their work on this material after il has
reached the form Of humus, decompos-
ing ii stin further and building plant
food and other substances from it,.
Thus we see that humus is continually
changing. II is never the same in two
different fields, and 1t also differs from
year TO year in the same field.
The addition OF manure TO field
does a great deal toward the formation
OF humus. lt not only adds decOmpOs-
ing matter tu the soil but it also adds
large numbers Of bacteria which form
humus ont Of the material already in
the soil. Tins we find that if il We're
not for the work Of bacteria there
would not he any humus, as the various
plant and animal matter would not de
cay.

CHOCOLATE AS A FOOD.
Il Should Be Eaten After and Never
Before Meals.

Chocolate is one of the most whole
some Of foods. But il should he re-
served for eating after meals Nothing
can be worse than chocolate eaten
just before a meal for then it ruins
the appetite. Chocolate should consist
Of equal parts Of sugar and cocoa.
When II contains. as most Of that sold
in the cheap candy stores does. more
sugar than cocoa it loses much Of its
real food value
Koenig. the great German chemist,
who has done SO much to enlighten the
world on the value Of foods by publish
ing his analysis Of them. says that
chocolate contains G27 per cent Of pro
tein. 10 per cent Of theobromine. p 20
per cent Of fat. 1876 per cent Of tar
taric acid $40 per cent Of sugar. 4.OT
per cent Of starch, 1.G7 per cent Of eel
lulose and $50 per cent Of other car
bohydrates Therefore it is highly nu-
tritive.
Athletes. polar explorers and noun
tain climbers know this well. In the
Swiss Alps it is usual TO carry chocO-
late in the pocket and TO eat little
Of il whenever the climbers pause for
q rest But chocolate is fattening and
should therefore be eschewed by those
WHO have a tendency 20 too great cor
pulency. II is an ideal addition TO the
diet Of vegetarian.
Chocolate and cocoa are almost as
stimulating as coffee and tea, but have

people the great drawbacks Of these
drinks
