Regarding the three-eighthS of an

to state that the chief engineer of the
California state highway commission
states they have had twenty-three
months test ON a section of their
roads near Fresno, which shows prac-
tically it will last a. least four years.
his coating may be renewed for
approximately fifteen per cent per
square yard.
That this subject is a live one is
eXemplified by the following: The
total highway mileage of France is
$4,000 miles. According to statistics
of the bureau of roads under the de-
p9rtment of agriculture of the United
States, $4,000 miles Of hard surface
roads and pavements were constructed
in the United States during the fiscal
year 1914 at cost of 1925 200 .O0O. 90,
which is an averag eof $12,5O0 per
mile.
Resides the street and paving pro-
blem there are several other munich
pal engineering problems that the pub
lie demand remedies for, and the for
mutation of proper public opinion rests
with this association, and it is thought
that it is the duty of this association
to outline proper methods and engi-
neering policies on all of these matters
SO that the public may form opinions
from authorized sources. In this way
and in no other way will we get re-
suits. 1t is a notable fact that in
matters of health and sanitation, the
medical association Immediately sug-
gests remedies and measures, which
have the universal approval of the
public. Likewise, in matters pertain
ing to law, legal legislation, court
codes. ETC., the bar association sug-
gests and offers ways and means,
which also have public backing. There
fore it is the duty of this body to seek
the opportunity of being heard on all
matters pertaining to public works
To this end it is incumbent upon US
to take the initiative in these mat
tiers if we expect to be accorded the
public confidence enjoyed by the 9TH

(By NJ N. EDGERTON)
The purpose of maintaining tillage
is for perpetuation or maintenance OF
desirable soil conditions, secured
through preparative tillage.
The one should follow the other
closely else much of the good result
secured from the first will be lost
The object is to preserve that ideal.
moist and mellow condition character
istic of the ideal plant and seed bed.
How to maintain a maximum supply
of soil moisture is the greatest of the
problems to be solved by the fruit
growers.
However, 1t is only through the
fruiting season that the moisture prob
lem assumes serious aspect.
We have proved to our satisfaction
that in so far as the growth and de-
velopment of fruit plants are con-
cerned, tillage can be made to con-
serve moisture sufficient to promoter
satisfactory growth.
Time and again we have secured
ideal growth in cane and plant, not
withstanding severe, protracted
droughts just by exercising watchful-
ness and persistency In maintaining
the earth mulch.
There is continuous upward move
ment ~ soil moisture. 1t is caused by
the laws Of equalization.
II the supply of soil water among
soil grains is greater at one point, wa
ter from these congested points flows
toward those points where there are
less amounts, until there is uniform
ity in the supply.
The manner in which water is evap-
Grated from all surfaces exposed to
the sun and air currents is well known,
and it Is through the working of these
quickly depleted where no measures
are taken to prevent the loss.
To prevent this depletion of soil
moisture through surface evaporations
tected from the sun and air, or the
upward flow of soil moisture inter-
cepted where the surface is reached.
The former is accomplished by COW
ering the surface with straw or other
material, the latter by stirring the sur
face soil grains, which break up the
interstices aforementioned, checking
the upward flow at the point where
the undisturbed and loose soil grains
meet.
So long as capillary movement of
soil moisture is held in check by this
layer of loose soil there can be blu.
little surface evaporation.
To preserve an ideal earth mulch,
| however, requires frequent STRINGS
depending upon the character of the
soil
| AS rule the Surface soil should
be stirred once In seven days and
particular care must be taken to cul
tivate after each shower, as soon as
the condition of the soil will permit
Even IL the shower consists of but
a few drops of rain 1t will be sufn
cient to form an earth crust, and this
should be broken at once
The conservation Of soil moisture
is but one Of the results secured
through efficient tillage. for all weed
growth is held in check and ideal sol
conditions maintained favorable to sol

activity and development of the root
system Of plants
How deeply shall we cultivate? The
strawberry Is pronounced surface
feeder so to speak. hence, cultivation
should not exceed two inches in depth
for the plant must fill the soil full Of
its roots and rootlets If 1t is to make
good at fruiting time
The roots of bush fruits reach deep
into the soil, hence in their culture
it is advisable to cultivate more deep
ly than with the strawberry, say four,
inches.
In the growing of bush fruits, the
grower may maintain the dust mulch,
through the entire season. and by this
measure good crops are secured,
though drought may be prevailing
through the fruiting season.
Some growers advocate the suspen-
sion of tillage operations during the
blooming time, which in our opinion
is mistake.
The theory is that dust PARTICLES
thus set in motion come In contact
with the pistils of the blossoms inter,
fering with complete polarization.
We have noticed no such i'll results,
and we begin cultivation in the spring
| just as soon as soil conditions will
| permit, and never let up in our ef-
! forts until the harvest is over.
| OF such Importance do we believe
the work that we would cultivate by
moonlight rather than neglect the
plantation during the blooming and
| fruiting season.
| With strawberries, however, this Is
impracticable, as the strawberry bios
SONS and fruit are very close to the
ground, where they are subject to con-
tact from dust and soil particles.

Salvation Army Hard Ait.

New York., Nov. 23.-The Salvation
Army here and abroad is facing n cri-
Sis. the most severe 1t has had to meet
Ill Its existence, several Of the army's
leading officers said. The financial con-
d1t1on of the army in America IL most
arected by the war. In Europe the
wal has practically disrupted the usual
industrial and religious activities.
More than 10000 workers and mem.
bers Of the organization are fighting
In The ranks. The entire system and
operation of the organization have
been swept away. a new start must
be undertaken after the war.
There are fifty institutions operated,
by the Salvation army in New York
and vicinity. All of these have been
seriously affected. The officials are
doubtful If they will be able to care
for the poor as usual, though the de-
mandf for assistance this winter prom
ises to be greater than in previous
years.
During the Christmas season the
army here provides for about 300, 600
persons. To do this it has always had
to draw on it's reserve funds. This
year 1t has no reserve. Most of the
larger donations and gifts Of money
TO the army here now are for the suf-
ferers In the war zone and are being
sent abroad for distribution through
such parts Of the organization as re-
main intact in the warning countries.
Colonel Alexander NJ. Damon. ma
tional field secretary of the army
here, said that, while the situation
was most serious, he believed the or
SaniZation in America would be able
to old together and continue some
part of its charities and work at least.
n other religious organization cx-
cept that of the Catholic church is SO
greatly affected by the war as the Sal
walton Army" said Colonel Damon.
Its international character is the
cause Of that. Its members are fight.
ing in the ranks in Germany, France
and Belgium. Everywhere except in
England the work of the organization
and it's actual existence are for the
time broken up. Matters are better IN

Paris Midinettes War Victims.

that 40 cents a day stood between you
and starvation and some one took
away the 40 cents.
That's the problem that 10000 midi
nettes are trying to solve in Paris.
Some of them took a short cut to the
solution. Their bodies have been

Others are holding %out-only that God
who keeps watch over the sparrows
knows how-until prosperity returns
again to France.
Every American who has ever visit
ed Paris knows the m%idincttcs.
They're not all pretty. but most of
them can counterfeit prettiness. They
are young, and they have that sturdy
health which ONE Of country air and
country food-for most of them reach
Paris from the provinces when they
are Sutherland in good times they
are quite Irresponsible and merry and
though1lcss. They live that life of
careless bohcmianism which people
think that artists models do-and
which they generally do not.
Now, these little, soft. tender things
are starving. They are literally starry
ing. If they still have a crust and a
bowl Of soup Il day it comes as IA char
ity.
Almost the day that war WAS declar-
ed the customers began to pull the
steel blinds down upon their windows.
