Month of March In History.

March, the month Of Martius
(Mars), though the third month of
our calendar, was the first month Of
the Roman year. 1t was considered
as the first month of the year in
England until the change Of style in
1852, and the legal year was reckoned
from the 25th of March. It's last days
(old style) were once properly sup
posed to have been borrowed by
March from April, and are proverbial-
ly stormy.

Among the innovations being insti-
tuted at the new building of engrav-
ing and printing just finished in Wash
ington, is rest period of ten minutes
in the middle of the forenoon, and in
the afternoon. This rest is proving a
great relief to the girls, for instance,
who do nothing but count money or
perforate stamps and other such mo-
notonous work During this period
the employees move around, can close
their eyes, or enjoy the beautiful sun
parlor on the roof. The government
finds that SO far from decreasing the
amount of the daily output by this
ten minutes rest, that, thanks to the
relaxation, the return to work is be-
gun with much more vigor that more
work is actually accomplished than
without the rest.

There still are doctors who question
the efficacy of incubation with typhoid
fever serum, which is compulsory in
the United States army. But here are
the statistics, as summarized by the
Louisville Courier-Journal: in 1898
when the United States had an army
of 10000 men in Florida there were
$500 cases of typhoid fever and 4S0
deaths in four months. In the year
1918 in the entire army at home and
abroad there were only six cases of
this disease. In the big mobilization
camps in Texas this year and last, COW
ering period of many months, there
was not case Of typhoid fever. This
is a record probably unparalleled in
the history of armies" It's pretty
hard to remain doubter in the face
of a showing like that.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.

Ever since the first fringe of set
tiers was established on the Atlantic
coast of the United States there has
been gradual and natural movement
westward. AS the lands were occu-
pied and gradually impoverished OF
their original fertility by careless or
imprudent farming new lands were
acquired. Land was cheap, and the
westward movement was accelerated
as population increased by improved
means of transportation enabling the
marketed, says Philadelphia Record.
Now that the process of occupation
and tillage of new lands has gone so
far that we are nearing the limit of
arabic opportunity and population has
overtaken our capacity for self-supply
Of foodstuffs, we are beginning to real
ize the mistake made in haphazard
under-cultivation of the soil and look
about for the remedy. There is very
little dispute as to the means of re-

so that they may know their farms
and get more adequate returns for the
labor of husbandry. AS farmers or
farmers boys have moved westward
the tendency In the East has been to-
ward a lesser proprietorship and larg-
er holdings of farm lands. Farms
have been rented by owners, and as a
consequence the lands have been

Howard E. Coffin, Famous
Auto Engineer, Says Horse
Traffic Should Pay Its
Share of Expense.

Detroit, June 20.-"Sooner or later all
vehicles. both horse and motor driven,
must be taxed for road maintenance"
says Howard E. Coffin, vice-president of
tho Hudson Motor Car Company, who
recognizes neglect Of the highways as a
serious offset to the large OUTLAWS for new
roads that are constantly being made
throughout the country. Appropriations
for road building are being made gener-
ally" he added. but little attention Is
being paid TO financing a proper road
maintenance year after year"
Mr. Coffin was suspected Of having been
instrumental in the preparation Of a
paper on IAN Engineering Basis. for
Taxation Of Automobiles" that is down
on the programme of the Society Of Auto
mobile Engineers meeting at Cape May,
n. j., this week, and which 1t has been
intimated embodies some exceedingly
radical suggestions. Mr.. Coffin, however,
disclaims all responsibility for the paper
At the same time, ne indicated plainly
his familiarity with the subject and his
own personal convictions as to the cor
rectness Of the principle Of taxing all
users Of the highway on the basis of the
benefit derived.
This subject is pertinent at the pres-
ent time because Of the general awaken

retain their tempers when the fact is con-
sidered that they have from 80 to 30 FER

their shoulders, and that nine-tentls OF
the reflections create disconnected Men
and that 80 per cent OF men when they
are disseminated do not hesitate to ex-
pi ess their opinions.
For that reason the examiners are

Mr.. Nutting emphasizes the fact that
the tourist OF the present time does not

seemed almost inevitable. Arrangements
can be made by customs broker at Bos-
ton or New York, who will sec that the

services promptly and without extra
charge.
Many things have been done in the last
few years to aid the tourist in securing
desirable accommodations. Carefully pre-

for chauffeurs, Mr.. Strobridge said:
I'VE do not accept the excuse OF ner-

SMALL CARS HAVE CALL

THAT manufacturers Of big six and four

Der Of such manufacturers who are be-

duction Of small. light four cylinder

of car for which the demand Is greatest
Now we have In the hands Of all our deal
ers the small Oldsmobile four selling

"Other makers who have Just awakened
to the trend Of the times are putting forth
their energies to get at least one model
into the low priced field. Whether these
cars will be low priced, but still high
grade. remains to be seen. Many makers
are turning out low priced models. but 1t
is a manufacturing feat to produce a
high grade car for low price.
There seems to be a very good reason
back of the call for high grade light
car, because such car will go through
sand and mud and up grades, and will
meet all conditions Of travel exactly as a
big car, but at less expense.
"Morotists have also learned that there
is a difference in motor cars, even though
both may be low in price. One of them
will be manufactured TO last for a long
time, and the other will be built for i'm
mediate profit. without any regard for
