The question of dust on the roads at

an Interesting report Concerning the
means OF overcoming the dust evil the
report says. ..t
The dust problem as It stands to-
day seems TO be open TO two methods
OF nttack-first. by applying materials
to the road which Will hold down the
dust formed and. second. by methods
Of construction designed to reduce the
formation OF dust and therefore the
wear OF the road to n minimum. Dust
prevention has 30 far been mainly con-
fined to the treatment Of old macadam
surfaces. and many preparations have
appeared on the market during the last
few years for which Creat claims have
been made --A- 43 p
There nre also two general methods
OF preventing dust on finished surfaces
first. keeping down the dust formed
on the road and. second, reducing Its
formation to a minimum. With this
classification In mind, corresponding

New Divorce Law Pretty Rigorous

Heretofore Texas has been
granting divorces on most any
pretext. The divyrce laws have
not been amended in years until
the recent session of the legisla
ture tackled the subject. Here.
after divorces will not be so
easily obtained. nor will the path
of the divorcee be so smooth as
heretofore.
Following is part of the new
law that goes into effect July l.:
Article 1851. No suit for di-
vorce from the bonds of matri-
mony shall he maintained in the
courts of this state unless the
petitioner for such divorce shall
at the time of exhibiting his or
her petition, be an actual bona
tide inhabitant of the State Of
of Texas, for the period of
twelve months and and shall
have residen in the county where
the suit is filed for six months
next preceding the filing of the
suit; provided that the suit shall
not be heard or divorce granted
before the expiration of thirty
day after the same is filed; and
provided further, that neither
party to a divorce suit, wherein
a divorce is granted upon the
ground of cruel treatment shall
marry any other person for a
period of twelve months next
after such divorce is granted. --

4 HORSES PULLING POWER
DETERMINED By GRADES
Dean Raymond 81 ls~s UHivsrsity
orinss Up New Question.

A totally new element has been
brought into the good roads question
by Dean william G. Raymond. head
Of the college OF engineering Of the
State university Of lowa. in an address
before the Johnson county good roads
convention
Although Dean Raymond II working
for permanent roads. he wants tho
stnte To go In with its eyes open and
consider sii the problems. This one
relatcS to grades.
with dirt rouds." said Dean Ray.
mond. tho pulling power OF a team of
horses IL limited more by the condi-
ton ef the surface OF the road ihun by
the steJ'ncss OF the grades. But with
concrete. brick or macndam roads the
pulling power OF horse on the level
is immensely Increased. and It IL the
grades which determine the size Of a
load that can be pulled. Consequently
In order to get the benefit OF perula.
nent roads II viii DO necessary to cut
down the grades.
The practical effect 10 about a. fol.
lows. says the dean:
"A team Of horses can exert steadily
on 4 dirt rond 4 pull OF $50 pounds.
which IL enough to pull load OF two
aud one half tons on the level. and the
team can pull the same load over short
hills OF rise OF from ave 10 eight
feet In the hundred by extra eXertion.
"But on q concrete road the tea m
Of horses can pull load three or four
times as great on tho level. When II
comes to II Hill. however. the team can
not pull this added load over the same
grade that It could travel over with
the lighter load On dirt roads"
Dean Raymond figures that the max
imum load for level concrste roads can
only be pulled over u . per cent grade
-thnt Is. over hill that rises two feet
In the hundred.
In his address he went into the cost
Of permanent roads. urging short time
bonds. and said he considered perma-
nent roads more OF an Investment than
an expense The 5000 or $4,000 a
