tage Except When Ground Is
in Right Condition.

The road drag is giving the public,
the politicians and the county super.
yisors q world of trouble, troubling
| them, we sometimes think, more than
the drag itself, troubles the roads. 1t
is such a fooIishly simple thing, sc
cheap and so easily made, that the
average man off the farm, and not a
few on the farm, are prone to think;
Can there any good thing come out
of such a Nazareth?
1t seems to be impossible by any
legislation that has been enacted, to
induce farmers generally to use the
drag. The townsmen with automo-
biles soundly belabor the farmers for
not using it, and sometimes hound the
farmers along these automobile roads
into using it when it is a damage in
stead Of benefit
The inherent difficulty In using the
drag and making legislation effective
is this, that the drag cannot be used
to advantage except when the ground
is in the right condition, says writer
in Wallaces Farmer 1t is of no
use at all when the ground is very
dry, and often a damage. There is
but one way that we see Of making 1t
thoroughly practical, and that is for
the farmer himself, who knows when
1t has rained and when the roads
should be dragged, to get out and use
1t on the road alongside his own farm.
Occasionally we hear of a county su-
pervisor who calls up his neighbors
by telephone, and tells them that now
is the time to drag the roads, and per
suades them to. do it, with wonder
fully good results. But it does not al
ways rain over the whole of super
visor's district at the same time.

WILL BE EXPENDED WISELY
Statement Showing How the Proceeds
of Sale of Red Cross Seals
Are to Be Spent.

For the benefit Of the numerous or
ganizations who helped to sell near
ly forty-ive million Red Cross seals
last year and for the general public,
the American Red Cross and the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention Of tuberculosis have
framed definition Of anti-tuberculo-
sis work showing how the proceeds
from these holiday stickers are to be
used. The definition limits the expen-
diture of money only for the year
ending April 80, 1915.
The definition was framed at a re-
cent meeting Of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis and states that the term
''anti-tuberculosis work" as it relates
to the expenditure of Red Cross seal
money shall include the following ac-
tivities:
l. The construction of hospitals or
sanatoriums for the care of the tuber-
cuIous.
2. The maintenance Of the tubercu-
lous.
,. The provisions of day or night
camps for the tuberculous; the provi-
sion and maintenance of dispensaries,
visiting nurses, open air schools, fresh
air classes, or preventoria for the care
or treatment of tuberculous cases or
for the prevention Of the spread of tu-
berculosis.
4. The maintenance of educational
or legislative activities which have for
their object the prevention of infection

PARADISE FOR THE ARTIST
DeVotees of the Brush Are Accorded
Accommodations Without Price
at Inn at Capri.

Capri, beautiful in itself as a winter
resort, offers an irresistible invitation
to artists, since it has an inn where
! anyone, by painting a picture on the
wall can get free board
To the lovely island of Capri, with
its perennial summer, its blue grotto
and its lemon groves, came, some fifty
years ago, ruined artist. He opened
an inn, and died rich. In his will,
leaving the inn to his heirs, he made
these conditions;
The charge per day, two bottles of
red Capri wine included, is never to
be more than six francs.
If any artist is too poor to pay he
shall paint picture upon some wall
space, receiving all the accommoda-
ton accorded to those paying the high
est price.
IF any German artist shall come
to the inn he shall be accommodated,
and shall receive the amount of his
fare to Germany upon his promising
never to return to Italy"
The inn is conducted today on these
conditions It's walls are covered with
paintings. Now and then a German
gets his fare home.

Inventor of the Alrhrake.

Who really invented the airbrake?
Certainly the automatic airbrake, the
one that has proved practicable and Of
permanent value in modern railroad
ing, was the product ofe the late George
Westinghouse ingenuity. His patent
for the automatic brake was taken out
in 1872, superseding the non-automatic
or straight" Westinghouse airbrake
patented in 1869, and later the West
tnghouSe vacuum brake was invented
But, as in the case of most other in
ventions, there are several claimants
for originality in this field. Thus
Mime. M. Drouanet, daughter Of M.
Debruges of Paris, claims the distinc-
ton of priority for her father. The
New York Times has a letter from
State Senator William P. Ffero of
White Plains containing patent office
declaration by his grandfather, Henry
Miller, of a new and useful improve
ment in the application of steam and
compressed air to the purpose Of op-
Grating railroad brakes" recorded Jan
uary 2, 1856. Mr.. Miller was doubt
less a. pioneer in the progress of air
brake invention.

Empty Titles.

The emperor Of Austria, it has been

OF Antwerp. If all European soyer
eigns could make good their minor
territorial titles there would, indeed
be a reconstruction Of the man. The
king OF Italy, for instance, is officially
styled king of Sardinia, France, Spain
and England, of Italy and Jerusalem
of Greece and Alexandria, of Hamburg
and Sicily, Master of the Deep, King
OF the Earth. The king of Spain also
claims to be king of Jerusalem, king
OF Galicia Ga title shared with the EN-.
peror of Austria), and, in addition
king of Gibraltar, of the West Indies

rid Of it. Why, at great expense to
the county and the township, invest in
a road grader, and then spoil the road
by putting all the rubbish into the
middle of it?
We don't believe we shall ever have
good roads in Iowa until the farmer il
given charge of half the road along
his line, and the owner of the adjoin-
ing farm the other half, and is then
persuaded to drag his half after every
rain, assuming in the first place that
1t has been drained and graded This
will give us the best of roads when
they are good. 1t will not give us
good roads all the year around. There
is time Of the year when dirt roads
will poach up. That cannot be helped
but the better they are graded and
the better they are dragged at the
proper time. the better they will be-
come, and the less they will poach.
When on the good roads train, near
ly ten years ago, we tried to appeal
to farmers to keep their roads dragged
whether they were paid for it or not,
for love of their farms and their com.
munity. They should be paid for it,
provided the work is properly done,
either by remission Of taxes or actual
cash; but if not, pride of their farm
should induce them to dras it.

The Bridal Trousseau.

The old idea of providing brides
With a score or more of gowns, wraps
and hats has quite gone by. Even the
fashionable trousseau of today con
tains no more than a dozen gowns, if
as many. Styles change so fast that
by fall the gowns for the June we'd
ding, necessarily made some weeks be
fore the ceremony, begin to look odd.
Some authority has declared that the
best dressed woman in Paris buys no
more than three new toilets each year,
but the opinion may be ventured that
she is altering her last years supply
most of the time. The vast assort-
nlents Of lingerie have also dwindled.
