VALUE OF THE GOOD ROADS
In Boston Has Established Course
In Highway Engineering.

The extent to which the remarks
driven road vehicles has impressed
upon every community the Importance
Of good roads is very well illustrated
by the recent establishment at the
Massachusetts, Institute of Technolo-
gy, in Boston, of a course In highway
engineering, says the Philadelphia
Press. The economic value of good
roads has, Of course, been known from
the earliest times. Rome conquered
the world not least because the RO!
mans were roadbuilders who build
ed for all time. But that value has
too often been lost sight of in newer
communities, and in certain portions
Of this great country of ours espe-
cially has it been ignored even long
before the advent OF the AUTOMOBILES
made a new demand for good roads,
A reawakening to the value Of good
roads, no matter what the class Of
vehicles that use them, Is directly
traceable to the automobile. The au1
tomobile has set new standard for
roadbuilding that is bound to make
for the benefit Of transportation OF
every kind. A road suited to the
weight and speed OF an automobile.

GOOD TREE FOR WlNDBReAks
(: Largely In North Dakota-Thrivss
In Dry Locations.

The western yellow or bull pine,
known to botanists as Pinus ponde-I
rosa. Is doubtless the one evergreenI
destined to be planted largely in North
Dakota for windbreaks. This tres
grows wild In the southwestern pAFt
Of the state where it attains q heighe
Of from so to 70 feet and a diameteG
of two and one-half feet. It Is nativl
also over most Of Montana and the en4
tire Rocky mountain region. In the
most favored locations 1t attains q
height Of over two hundred feet and
. diameter Of eight feet. This tree ID
characterized by its remarkably dense
heavy growth. The leaves or needles
are very thick and firm and about six
inches long. giving 1t a luxuriant apl
pearance such as Is ordinarily pos
sessed by only tropical plants.
1t Is noted for its ability to grow in
very dry locations having great OK
tremes in temperature. 1t ia said to
require only one-sixth as much mois-
ture as the average deciduous tree of
the same size. A branch collected In
the western part Of the state few
weeks ago is still lying upon the
writer's desk and though the tempera-
ture Of the Office has averaged about
ninety degrees the pine shows no
more signs Of whiting than does the
whiskbroom beside it.
In starting this tree, small plants
not more than foot in height and
not over four years old should be used.
They should be shaded the first year
or two and mulched. Covering the en-
tire plant with light mulch the first
winter is good practise. 1t Is best
also to plant them on the north of box
elders that will be removed later.
When once they are established they
will thrive where most other trees
would perish.-North Dakota Expert

Washington. - The senate banking
and currency committee had before 1t
the bill introduced by Senator Thomas
OF Colorado. providing for the coinage
OF quarter dollars to commemorate
completion Of the Panama canal and
the hundredth anniversary of peace
between English speaking peoples. A
feature Of the bill was the injection Of
provision which would fix the ratio
Of gold and silver at % to /. The meas
ure also would provide that each quar-
ter must weigh 1875 grains. and that
any person offering 1O3.125 ounces of
pure silver, plus $3.50 in lawful money.
could receive from the treasury 400
quarters, or 800.
Accompanying the bill was state
ment urging that the measure would
establish a fixed par exchange with
forty five countries which use the Brit
ish sovereign as unit of exchange.
and an approximate parity with TWEEN
ty-one countries which use the French
frame as the exchange unit.
The bill was offered "by request"
but Senator Thomas did not disclose
the identity of Its author.

PREVENTING MITES AND LICE
Cleanliness, WelELighted Pens and
Efficient Dust Baths viii Keep
the Pests Away.

The best preventives for lice and
mites are cleanliness. well-lighted pens
and efficient dust baths. To secure q
fair degree of cleanliness the drop
pings should not be allowed to remain
In the pens beyond reasonable length
OF time. If dropping boards are
used daily removal Is preferable. This
scratching litter should be renewed
when it shows indications Of becoming
foul Plenty Of sunlight is essential to
good sanitation, and in constructive
the poultry house this should be taken
into consideration. The establishment
of the conditions just mentioned, how4
ever, is not sufficient to ward OF YER

for furnishing the fowls dust baths.

powers participated. This would only
include the expenses of conducting the
warfare and would not include the loss
sustained by relaxation in all bust
ness and commercial life of the CONT
nent.
The crisis is only an excuse for war
after twenty-five years Of jealous ha-
tired between Austria and Servia. 1t is
a gigantic struggle between Slav and
Teuton. The two countries have irri-
tated each other for centuries. A war
between these two countries is surely
bloody and horrible, but nothing com
pared TO the result Of Germany and
Italy UNFOLDING their alley. Austria,
and opposing Servia's friends, France.
Russia and England.
1t is the triple alliance against the
triple entente. Russia. France and
England compose the triple entente.
This has been in existence for several
years. Likewise the principals Of the
triple alliance have been in existence
for years.
The tremendous increase of Russia
saves the triple entente from being
overwhelmed in numbers by the triple
alliance Germany alone has three
fourths as many inhabitants as Great
Britain and France together. and Aus
tria and Italy add roundly SG.OO0.OOO
to this number. The great population
of Russia, however. brings the total
strength of the triple entente to 253.-
100000 against 152.OOO.OOO for the tri-
pie alliance.
The assassination Of Archduke Fran
els Ferdinand and his wife was the
spark that has kindled into flame the
long smoldering embers Of Austrian
and Servian hatred. Shocking as that
tragedy was it was. after all. but one
incident in a long chapter of political
reprisals which Austria has been quick
to seize as an opportunity to vent the
hatred Of years on the little neighbour
ing state. whose aggressiOns she can
no longer ignore and whose Deetentions
she no longer dares to scorn. With
this excuse Austria made demands
which Servia, by refusing, caused the

CONGRESS MAKES
RECORD FOR TALKING
More Speeches Than Ever Be-
fore Are Made.

WashingtOn.-This is the most talka-
tive congress yet. The fact Is shown
by an examination of the statistics.
The Congressional Record now con-
tains over $4,000 pages for the present
session. That many pages Of the Rec
ord, in other words, have been filled
since the first Monday Of last Deem
Der. In those pages may be found dis
cussiOn of almost every subject under
the sun, from questions Of information
al polity to garden seeds. ....a . ....-.
The largest record achieved in a
in the regular session of the Fifty-first
congress. 1t met in December. 1889,
and continued to the first of the next
October, 3O4 days. 1t filed a record
Of 1880 pages.
1t must be remembered, too. that the
present session Of congress is not over.
1t will last five or six weeks longer,
perhaps more than that.
Something like 400 pages are filled
weekly. 1t is safe to predict that by
the time this session ends the Record
will contain well up toward 1900
pages. When the Record Is bound In
it's final form the number Of pages will
be to some extent fewer. This is be-
cause in making up the permanent
Record some of the formal features of
the daily record are omitted and each
page is made up rs compactly as pos
sible. ' A.. -..'.' 3d. .'
Why is it that congress is getting
more talkative? Various explanations
are made One might draw the con-
cusion that the representatives Of the
people are getting more voluble and
excitable, like the French, for instance.
Leaving aside the question OF any
change which may be coming over the
American character. a number OF other
explanations can be made. For one
thing, it is to be remembered that the
size Of the house was much increased
in the last reapportionment Congress
is entitled. therefore. to do little
more talking -..1,
Moreover. now that senators are
elected by direct vote they feel 1t
necessary to do more talking for the
benefit Of their constituents. and they
introduce more matter into the record
in way Of letters. clippings. etc.
Again. there used to be a fine old
tradition TINT Il new senator should
be seen but not heard. He was sup
posed to sit silent in his seat and OBJ
serve the way Of the elder statesmen
for year Or SO. IT he ventured to
talk early in the game, as Albert
Jeremiah Beveridge Of Indiana did
when he made his advent, and as La
Toilette, Cummins, and some of the.
progressive minded senators did, he
was regarded rs rude. The elder states
men hazed him by going to the cloak
rooms and saying mean things about
him.
But that is so no more. The new
senator is allowed to talk as freely as
the senior. This adds to tbs record.
Additional reasons nigh. De given.
One factor is that the government is
getting bigger. more great subjects of
legislation are pressing for attention.
and these subjects are productive Of
debate.
