Substitutes For Pneumatic Tires.

! 1t is safe to say that no subject has
received more careful thought and at
tention from inventors within the last
year than the tire problem. But not
one Of the scores of recently patented
devices is quite equal to the plain ar
tillery wheel fitted with pneumatic tire,
Most of the devices employ springs to
take. up the Jar between the tire and
the axle and use solid rubber or simi'
lar material for the actual tread of the
tire. Ingenious as many OF these
schemes are. they are bound TO be less
seryiceabIe than the pneumatic tire,
due to the number Of moving parts
which are subject Ia wear and break
age. Furthermore. there Is a great tend
ency tn rattle and jar whenever a
small obstruction is met by the tire.
So, although the problem of substitute
for pneumatic tires has not been en-
tirely solved, much work Is being done,
and it is apparently only matter OF
time until we may expect something
even better than the present pneumatic
tire.-Scientific American.

A Stone Forest.

One of the sights that travellers go
to see out west is the petrited forest,
a desert land where great tree trunks
turned to stone lie scattered on the
ground. It is supposed that the fertile
land where the forest once grew was
overHowed by water In ages long past
and that after the water had remained
long enough to petrify the trees 1t de-
parted. leaving the forest as II had
found II. except that the trees no long
er stood. but lay on the ground.
1t Is said that IN the Kankakee rive.
where It joins the Des PLANES. a FEW

received consideration at the session
two years ago. including enough OF OPP
position to then defeat ii, is up again
at Lansing. The opposition To il in
1911 came principally from counties

Senator Allswede of Bay county is
now sponsor for the bill. To provide
funds IL lis contemplated i'm his bin that
all motor cars be required to pay a
specific tax of 25 cents per horse power
In lieu of other taxes. This. Senator
Allswede estimates, would yield $780,
600 the first and not less than 500,

FIFTY per cent OF this automobile tax
would be used for building trunk lines

They arrived at z o'clock last night,
the big guns of anti-suffrage, the
women who will go before the House

clare that the doctrine of votes for

ly useless. and absolutely unnecessary.
The anti-suffragists, members OF the
National Association Opposed to Wom-
an Suffrage, came to Washington in
special cars from New York, fresh
from their annual convention in that
city. Forty of them are in the dele
CATION representing New Jersey, the
Presidents State.
And the fact that the President
failed to advocate woman suffrage in
his message to Congress yesterday
filled them with glee.
The hearing today will be the occa-
sion of the assembling of the most
notable anti-suffragists in the United
States
Mrs. Arthur NJ. Dodge. president of
the National Association Opposed TO
Woman Suffrage, will have charge of
the hearing and introduce the speakers.

INSTRUCTION FOR FARMERS.
y. & o. Agricultural Special Mai<inR
Tour of Maryland.

Laurel. Nd, Dec. 3.-The Baltimore and
Ohio Railroads agricultural educational
special train spent the second day Of
the weeks tour OF its lines in Maryland
ON the Washington branch, stopping at
Jessup, Laurel Muirkirk, and Branch
willie, which conveniently are reached by
the farmers in this section Of the State.
The attendance was large and showed
the interest taken In the work OF the
State and the railroad company for the
Improvement OF farming conditions.
The constant Improvement in the
farms along the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad between Baltimore and WASH
ington is noticeable and the agricultural
authorities, as well as the railroad off,
Gals, are encouraged by the showing
which is being made in one OF the most
attractive sections OF the State.
The baggage car, fitted up as an ex-
hibit OF a sanitary dairy stable. and
what a modern housing for dairy cows
should be, is one of the most interesting
features of the lectures.
The train will proceed tomorrow over
the Metropolitan branch Of the railroad,
making the four stops of the schedule at
Gaithersburg, Body, Dickerson, and

B0iIs Are a

No Time Should be Lost in
Purifying Your Blood.

Many people believe boils are a sign OF
health. It is a sign Of sick blood. II Is
an indication that the circulation is slug
gish or loaded with acids and impurities
to cause breaking down Of the tissues.
At the first appearance Of pimples and
boils the blood should be given a good
searching internal bath with S. s. s. the
greatest blood purifier known to man.

action Of soaking through the intestines
directly into the blood. In a few minutes
its influence is at work In every artery,

every organ Of the body. every emunctory

Traffic Casualties.

Irauc NHNuaitieS.
Referring to traffic casualties, the re-
port says:
THE existing speed law should be 50
amended as to afford the Commissioners
authority to fix the rate of travel at diff
ferent points in the District as advancing
and changing conditions may justify.
The Commissioners should be enabled to
reduce the license enjoyed by drivers
who use the alleyways in the District.
through which many Of them proceed at
an unusual and peace-disturbing speed"
Crime statistics are referred to as fol-
lows:
During the year that ended the first of
July, 1913, there were Lib cases held
after a preliminary hearing for violating
the criminal laws, an increase of only
thirty-one cases over the year preceding,
the white constituting about a per cent
and the colored SIS per cent of those pre-
scented.
THE simple assault cases aggregated
2.4ss, LISP colored and SS6 white. There
were 1,S61 convictions, a reduction of
nineteen cases over the prior year
There was on the whole a noticeable
reduction in crime Of the greater magni-
ture and an energetic and successful ap-
prehension OF offenders.
THE total value of property and money
recovered by the department from all
sources. including automobiles. horses,
deceased persons, the insane and miscel-
laneous, was s1sl, 1870"
Matter of Fairgrounds.
Concerning Fairgrounds. II is said:
The second year the Fairgrounds have
been under government control has
proved more satisfactory to all concerned
than was anticipated. Again this year
the development of Fairgrounds has
consisted mainly in the intensihcation of
the present activities, the training Of a
more efficient corps of workers, improve
ment of present grounds and equipment
and the full use of facilities already pro-
vided, rather than the extension of the
work through other parts of the city"
Urgent recommendation that the Dis
trict be permitted to purchase a munic-
ipal asphalt plant is repeated in the re-
port of the new Commissioners. The re-
port points out that the city has been
able to effect a material saving on re-
pair work through the operation of a
portable plant, and that this saving
would increase greatly with a municipal
ly-owned plant capable OF doing all the
street work OF the city. The report
says:
The operation Of this plant has de-
monstrated its economy as a small plant,
but it is essentially less economical than
a larger permanent plant, which has
been recommended by the commission
ers All work of repairing asphalt pave
ments, except where the roadway is en-
tirely resurfaced, is done directly by the
District instead of by contract. Re
surfacing is done by contract. The plant
is also authorized to be used in the re-
pair of macadam streets by placing an
asphaltic-macadam wearing surface upon
them, and in constructing asphaItic-
macadam wearing surface on concrete
base when this work can be economically
performed by the use Of the plant"
