KEEPING ROADS IN CONDITION
Use Of OIL, Following the Vogue Of the
Automobile, Has Been Found to
Be Most Effective.

The use of oil upon the roads is one
of the many interesting innovations
that have followed the introduction Of
the automobile. The wheel Of the car
not only raises the loose dust Of the
road, but, as the hattened part Of the
tire becomes once more rounded on
leaving the ground, actually tears and
disintegrates the surface itself
As the foundation OF the best road
oil. asphaltum-which is present in
large amounts in the California and
Texas oils-is unrivaled. In fact, an
authority on the subject declares in
the New York Sun that a road oil is
effective precisely in proportion to the
amount Of asphaltum it carries.
There are three methods Of using
the oil. In the most thorough process
the road surface is first broken by the
pillow. 1t is then sprinkled with the
heaviest Oil-half a gallon to a gallon
Of oil to the square yard-and then
narrowed and rolled. A lasting road
bed results. This process. with vari-
GUS notifications, has been much used
in California.
Another method that is coming into
very general use in the east is to pre-
pare the roadbed by resurfacing the
crown of the road and brushing of the
dust. Over this the road oil is sprin-
kled from a cart, about half a gallon
to the square yard. 1t Is usual to oil
only half of the road at time. for
traffic should be kept from the oiled
surface for a couple of days The
preparation will last a whole season;
but If the oiling is done oftener, it will
result in an enduring asphalted surf
ace.
The third method, less permanently
effective, is sprinkling the road with
emulsifed oil. a mixture Of oil, water
and saponifying chemicals-which
lays the dust and binds the road surf
ace. but which calls for reapplication
every few weeks. If the emulsifed
oil has a true asphaltum base. this
method will ultimately result in a dur
able asphaltum roadbed.
1t may be added that many Of the
California crude oils were so weighted
with asphaltum that for long time
they were used as fuel only. The
chemists. however, have found a way.
to extract the naphtha and kerosene.
and leave the asphaltum almost pure
for this new use.

Makina Cob Charcoal.

One of the cheapest and best rel
ishes for hogs OF all ages and sizes is
cob and bone charcoal Some dry day
rake together all the cobs. no matter
how dirty. Dig a shallow pit start
fire with some shavings, and grad.
ually bury it with cobs without smoth-
ering it. Put in the old bones that
have been lying around
Let the pile smolder until all the
cobs are charred through. but above
all things don't let the cobs burn so
as to crumble Throw on a bushel of
oats the last thing, and when charred
pour on water Salt down and scatter
to cool. This is a relish that will
make little pig hit daddy.

Of Rubber Hose.

When cattle or horses choke take q.

Value of Fairgrounds.

$50 long as there is a child in our
land who tolls in shop or tenement
when he should be out at play. whose
school is without a playground and
whose out-ofdoo is bounded by the

long the masses will hate the classes.
