special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Aug. 27.-The fol- lowing proclamation has been is sued 5y lie Commissioner of State Highways. in furtherance of Gov Hays Good Roads pro- clamati0n:
 To all County Judges: Wednesday and Thursday, September 3-4. have been set apart by he Hon. George w. Hays, Governor, to be observed by the people of Arkansas as Road Days. With the co-opera- ton of everybody a great deal of good canbe accomplished. With .Qut hearty cooperation very lit- tlc good can be done.
 The Highway Department of Arkansas was represented at the two days work session held Aug. 2Q-21 in Missouri, and watched the work in several sec tions of the state during the two days. Much good was accom- plished and a great deal of en- thusiasm was aroused.
 Many men will volunteer for this work who know little about road work, and many more will be physically unable to accom- plish much. Every little helps. Every lick will count. Every man call do 6 little.
 It is the governors desire that the county judges arrange for the over-seers in the various districts to take direct charge of the work. Organization is es- sential. Each road. should have it's workers organized into work squads. Select the bad places in your roads and repair them. If you have men who cannot handle ax, pick and shovel, set them to throwing rocks out of the road or driving teams. Select the men for the work with reference to their strength and ability. Do not expect to build permanent macadam highways. Arrange to put your present highways in shape. Repair the bad places. Fill up the ruts and clean out the ditches. Remove the rocks and obstacles to traffic and shape up the roads:
 Sept. 3-4 will be referred back to as the days of awakening of the Arkansas movement for Good Roads.

 Chairman.

POLYHYMNIA SEXTETTE

That the home concert of the
Polyhymnia Sextette was a marked
success was evidenced by the large
and appreciative audience which
greeted them in the auditorium last
night.
The annual concert of the Sextette
has always been the prominent musi-
Gale of the season and the excellence
of their work, together with the ex-
ceptional individual talent of the
members, gives them high position
among college organizations.
The program contained a great va
riety of numbers and was essentially
classic in nature. Three songs, THE
Nightingale (Zerlette)S when the
Swallow Sings" (Meyer-Helmund)
and "Nymph's Song" (from Ulysses.
Cooleridge-Taylor), constituted the
first group and were sung by the sex
tette.

when a building was erected in New
York City with walls, floors, beams,
and roof of reinforced concrete. The
greatest early development was on
the Pacific coast. Among those
which were the most notable at the
time are warehouse erected in
1884; the building of the California
Academy of Science about 1888, and
the Museum building of the Leland
Stanford university in 1892 The
last named structure withstood the
earthquake shock much better than
more recent additions of brick.
| would like to impress upon you
an important fact. There is no rem
edy for carelessness in mixing and
placing concrete.
Just as there are right and wrong
methods of farming, SO, too, are
there right and wrong ways of using
concrete. No man abreast of the

day must give careful attention to
the health, comfort and convenience
of his family. Moreover the care of

second only to that of his fanny.

Concrete on the Farm

Following are extracts from a very
Interesting lecture given by II. j.
Doolittle of Portland Ore:
The numerous practical uses of
concrete, the permanency of this
type of construction, and it's adapt
ability to the various sizes and
shapes of structures in which 1t is
so successfully used, brings it promi-
nently to the attention of the world
as an important factor in permanent
construction work, and it is today ad-
vancing in favor more rapidly than
any other type of construction.
The experienced concrete worker,
the architect, or the engineer, all
know that concrete as a building ma
terial has a great future. They know
that it possesses structural qualities
which not only equal those of other
common building materials, but sur
pass them all in many respects. They
also recognize concrete to be the
building material of the trained man
not necessarily the technical"
man in all instances; but concrete
must be used correctly for good re-
suits. Big work, or work requiring
engineering skill, should be left to
the engineer; but ordinary small
work, such as watering troughs,
block work, sidewalks, small tanks,
foundations, silos, etc. can be car
ried on successfully by any intelli-
gent workman who is familiar with
the general handling of building ma
terials, and who will read the cur
rent literature issued by magazine
publishers and by the cement COM
panies.
To produce good piece Of con-
crete it is necessary to use properly
selected materials in their proper
proportions, and to see that the voids
in the finished product be reduced as
far as it is commercially possible.
Portland cement is wholly an ar
tificial product, made by the burn
ing of finely ground and carefully
proportioned mixtures of limestone
and shale or clay, to point of fusion
and then grinding the resultant mass
to an impalpable fineness.
Portland cement was first made
in the United States at Kalamazoo,
Mich, in 1872. That it was a good
product is evidenced by the fact hat
sidewalks made of it are still in fair
There are two grades of structural
concrete as used today-plain con-
crete, and reinforced concrete.
Plain concrete is composed of four
Ingredients Portland cement, sand,
gravel or crushed rock, and water.
Reinforced concrete is produced
by imbedding steel rods or wire mesh
in plain concrete.
The invention of reinforced con
crete is usually credited to Joseph
Monier; but his first constructions
are antedated by those of Lambot,
who in 1850 constructed a small
boat Of reinforced concrete and in
1886 exhibited the same at the Paris
Exposition. In this latter year Lam
bot took out patents on this form of
construction; it being regarded by
him as especially we'll adapted to
shipbuilding, reservoir work, etc.
The first work in Portland cement
in the United States was in 1875,

". S. c. PROFESSORS
GO TO j. OF MINI.
Professors Thatcher and Berry to Be
Heads of Important Departments

Professor r. w. Thatcher received
notice on Wednesday of last week
that his appointment to the position
CT professor OF agricultural chemis-
try and soils in the University of Min
nesota had been unanimously con-
firmed by the board of regents of
that institution on the day before
the appointment to be effective on
May /.
BY curious coincidence Professor
Thatcher received on the same day
a telegram from Dean Thos. F. Hunt
Of the agricultural department of the
University of California, asking if
he would consider an offer of the
professorship in agricultural chem
istry in that university. The posi-
ton in the latter institution cares
with 1t the highest salary which is
paid for his particular professorship
n any institution in the United States
and the offer would have been very
attractive one, but as Professor
Thatcher had previously signified his
willingness to accept the position in
Minnesota if elected to it, he felt 1t
necessary to decline to consider the
offer from California.
Professor Thatcher and his family
will leave for his new field of work
in Minnesota about April "a. His
new position gives him charge of all
the Institutional and research work
in agricultural chemistry and soils
in the agricultural college and err
perrin ent station of the State Uni
versity OF Minnesota.
