GRAVEL ROADS

Over hundred miles Of gravel roads have been con,
structed county In consideration OF the methods USED
in construction and the of maintenance these roads are
surprisingly good and indicate that the local graves used are
capable of giving excellent results when properly handed me
main sources of gravel at present are Georgetown and the
Lincoln pits The former owned by the county Other pits
used to some extent, located Glendale Milton and
Seaord although the latter is properly sandcay mkt
ure The local graves all low rock content but show
high binding power due probably to the good mixture OF the
clay The Lincoln gravel seems to give the best ser
vice under traffic The Georgetown pit best adapted tor use
supplying large quantities OF gravel for general use over the
county, 1t is located railroad and has working lace

coffee may be considered.
The house today wrote into a spe-

Chicago, Aug. 11.-Tumblng prices

the temporary embargo which the war
has put on ocean shipments from the
United States was not to be ignored
There was a nervous close In wheat at

from &c decline TO like advance

in the end were 12is to S5c down.
1t was plain from a start today that
buying wheat blindly on war news
had come to sudden halt. Holders
with profits who heretofore would not
stop 70 consider the lack of any pres
ent outlet for the rapidly accumulat-
ing surplus in the United States were
anxious to unload. and were quickly
made aware that sentiment in the
trade had been largely reversed. Bear
ish feeling was further augmented by
knowledge that seaboard exporters
had resold considerable quantities of
wheat to Chicago handlers, and that
there was not even approximate as
surance Of when interior terminals
could obtain relief. What little reac-
ton took place from the days bottom
prices in wheat appeared due to re-
ports that some Kansas shipments
were being made to Canada, presum-
ably on export billing. 1t was said
that such wheat would be milled In
bond and the product be exported to
England There was also said to
have been an active milling demand
at Minneapolis. At the extreme to-
day, wheat here was down 3 hc. COM

weakened with wheat and as a re-
suit of beneficial rains in the chief
producing states. Shipping demand
continued active, however, and finally
caused a decided upturn in the Sep
TENDER option.
Oats had a surprising recovery near
the close 1t was said the movement
from the farms was not nearly so

Provisions fell on account of a

Washington. Aug. 1.-THE ques-
ton as TO the establishment of a neu-
trail zone in Chinese waters, which has
been occupying the attention of Off
Gals here since the declaration of hos

Attention was called today to the
fact that at the request of the Euro

from active hostilities during the Chi
nese-Japanese war in or around the
port of Shanghai. where there was a
large international colony; and during
the Russo Japanese war Shanghai

played in a very interesting match at
Idlewild. and I felt afterward that
just such matches would instruct less
experienced golfers and give them a
knowledge of the comparative merits
OF different courses.
There is much greater average of
good playing in Great Britain than in
America, and | think this is due to
the large number of professional eX-
hibition matches. We are not so keen
about wholly professional golf in this
country, but | think that a mixture of
professional and amateur golf would
give good results and improve the
standard of play of both classes of
players.
