Missouri will sell about three and

OF this number, st. Louis will sell
about a million and Kansas City
about seven hundred thousand.
These cities received their supply
direct from the headquarters of the
National Association for the Pre-
vention of tuberculosis in New
York City. About two million seals
will be sent out through this Office
of which number about one and a
half million have already been sent.

tuberculosis. The campaign brings

tical and cooperative relation to
the welfare of a community. 1t

have received letters from 2SO
newspapers over the state offering
me the use of their columns. Such
aid is invaluable. Over nine hun
dred schools in the state are selling
these SEALS"
The seals are sent to the princi-
pals of all the schools of the state
and in turn are distributed among
the children to be sold. Usually
each pupil is given ten seals.
Eighty per cent of the money re-
ceived from a community reverts
back to that community by carry
ing the fight against tuberculosis
there. If the community has no
systematic method for carrying on
the work a visiting nurse is en-
ployed. In cities like st. Louis and
Kansas City, where the city has ta-
ken up the fight, the funds raised
are used to build open-air schools
and for the maintenance of night
camps.
Missouri, while not long in the
crusade, is the most progressive

Fear is felt that the

Quoted for the relief of the Belgians

4 GRAVEL ROADS.

d At the beginning OF the present
year there We're approximately .124 900
miles Of gravel roads in this coun-
try, SO the, gravel road can not be
called an experiment. In fact it is
rapidly growing in popularity, on ac-
count Of its many excellent qualities
and comparatively low cost as com
pared with other hard surfaced roads.
Gravel is far preferable to clay. It
does not turn into mud in wet wealth
er nor into dustin dry weather.
Not until the last few years have
the public authorities OF the Middle
West recognized the value Of gravel
in highway construction, and even
now there is lack of general infor'
nation on the subj All gravel is
not suitable for road surfaces.
IA Three important qualities are es
|sential to a good grade: OF road build
ing gravel. These y are hardness,
toughness and cementing power. sy
1t. is generally believed that many
Of the gravel beds of Delaware coun
ty contain a consid erable quantity Of
iron ore, and if that be true it is
quite probable that gravel Of thai
character is unexcelled for y. road
cons truction purposes. gG$.z' =. .@tt.,
Il In view of the fact that the Board
Of Supervisors of, this county, the
Manchester City Council and prob
ably; the councils Of other towns in
the county have commenced the use
Of gravel in road construction, might
it not be well to have laboratory .' ex'
aminations made Of samples OF the
county's gravel deposits by some sons
competent expert and have ibis op1n
ion publishe ed? It is probable thaa'
the state authorities, if requested,
would do this work without expense
to our local officials. .

us there iron ore in the red SAND
Of this county? We quote the 1oi-

vey Of Delaware township which may
help in answering this question::
"A body Of bog ore, limonite, un-
derlies ilowan drift in u some low
meadow land in the south halt "
the southeast quarter OF section one
Delaware township. Il Similar ore was
encountered in digging surface Wells
in adjacent parts OF section II. Inc
area within which this ore is known
to exist is about 100 acres -
'.The iron ore is quite impure, pc.
ing mixed with SAND and pebbles. In
thickness the bed varies from few
inches to six feet, as reported by
persons who had made test pits TO
determine the question. A small gull
" is in process Of excavation by
head-water erosion, in the lowest
part of the meadow; an1s at the head
Of the excavation the ore is natural
ly exposed. At this point the bed
is thin and the ore occurs in large
flakes and irregular masses separat-
ed one from the other by ferrugln-
Gus sand anG clay. The iron rests
on blue clay of Kansan age. The
everything Iowan drift varies from one
to more than six feet in thickness"

In 1897, Samuel Calvin, State Geol-
ogist, made a geological survey of

Survey. This report states, that

The following is an extract from
Professor Calvin's report: ~, 4
''The pit near Earlville,t on the
land OF Mr.. NJ. v. Newcomb, has
furnished more material for use on

year are impossible for loaded teams

has been used for ballast on the line
