brought to the surface by the reced-
ing glacier and already drying in the
sun to be waited away in tiny par
ticles by the wind. Mr.. Witham dug
ice parts of countless grasshoppers
hole two feet deep into the mass of
frozen grasshoppers, reaching place
where the insects were whole, pre-
served just as they were when they
alighted in some cross-country flight,
probably ages before the first Nor
wegians landed on the coast of Green
land. Those who remember the
grasshopper invasion in 1875, when
mammoth cloud of insects that
blackened the sun swept like
scourge from Montana to Texas and
back again, will recollect that the
year of 1875 was unusually mild.
The theory that eggs of the grass
hoppers laid in the glacier before the
original horde was frozen might have
gained the surface, thawed and
hatched, Is held to be feasible. Ex-
periments have proven that grass
hopper eggs may remain frozen for
an indefinite time and still remain
fertile.

Come This Winter

There's welcome for the world
Where the valleys broad are eurled
Through the land Of endless Summer in
the West;
Where eternal sunbeams play
Mid the golden boughs that sway
As the zephyrs whisper songs you love
the best.
While the mountains rise snow

Meath a sky that's seldom frowned!

See the petals, ruby red,
Of the flaming rose a-waying in the

And by forest, stream or field
Not spot may be revealed
But the treasures of nature are laid

In this land Of oil and gold
Where the people, young and old,
Have a welcome for the pilgrims that
may fare.
And the yellow poppies dance
In the playful sunbeam's glance,
Whose golden glow it never fails to
lend;
While the blossoms of the trees
Throw their perfume to the breeze

The clay gravel banks along the recla-
nation bitches piled by the dredges
supply ideal material for graveling
our roads This mixture of clay, sand
and gravel packs from the very first
and does not deed underlying soil cut

Admixture Needed.
Coarse gravel, free from clay or
soil, will need an admixture of soil
from below to secure a hard, smooth
roadbed. Orchard avenue has now
been graveled two years. It's sue
cess from the start has been such as
to attract the attention of other
neighborhoods. This Fall the Lone
Star and Midway districts have been
graveled and other lines will soon be
completed to the extent of 13 miles
of graveled roads in this neighbor-
hood.
The Midway district, one and one
fourth miles, 400 rods, required 500
loads of gravel and 26 hours to apply.
The gravel was hauled from 80 to
200 rods. On December S, eight
shovelers and Is teams hauled 270
loads, covering 1876 rods of road at a
cost of 20% cents each and a rod
cost AIN cents, making the total
cost of one and one-fourth miles 1907
or s165.60 the mile.
On the Lone Star road the gravel
was hauled from three-fourths of a
mile to the length Of the graveled
road three miles. The number OF
loads was 1900 or $50 loads to the
mile, at total cost Of $776.99. Each
load cost 43 cents or $258.99 the
mile. To this must be added SO the
mile for work the next two months
with team and King drag smoothing
the surface.

As a tribute which the lavish land may
send
To keep the Storm Kings host,
OF which the northlands boast,
From the mellow cline where Sum-
mers never end.
And the hymn that labor sings
Is the chant of jay that springs
From the blessings Of a fat and preg-
nant soil;
For there's not dell nor plain
But yields up the Joyous grain
When awakened by the magic touch
of Toll;
Where the people wait to meet
With their outstretched hands to greet,
And a welcome that no snowy chill
may spoil.
And the roar of whirring steel
Bursts amid the crash and peal
In the factories that art has set alive;
And the deep and mighty ships
Gently glide into their slips.
With the cargoes of the nations, as
all strive
To send the finest wares
That the hand Of commerce bears
To the land where labor, love and
capital may thrive.
There's a welcome for the world
Where the valleys broad are curled
Through the land of endless Summer
in the West;
Where eternal sunbeams play
Mid the golden boughs that sway
AS the zephyrs whisper songs you love
the best,
While the mountains stand snow
crowned
Meath a sky that's seldom frowned-
Come, this Winter-you are welcome
with the rest!

The Problem of Graveled Roads

EVIDE EMILY Otto Rheinhardt,
Commissioner of the Nampa
- Highway District, Canyon Coun-
ty, Idaho, has solved the problem of
graveling the highways at. moderate
cost. Three years ago he decided to
gravel the districts share of the
boulevard between Nampa and Cald-
well. A half mile away, Indian Creek
runs parallel with this boulevard and
there an abundant supply of gravel
was procured. Fortunately the very
heavy traffic incident to hauling rails
and ties for the Interurban Electric
line track cut through the gravel,
mixing the underlying soil with the
superimposed gravel in suitable pro-
portions for cementing firm, smooth
roadbed. A per centage of clay or
volcanic ash soil mixed with gravel
makes hard, smooth roadbed not
likely to absorb rainfall. The re-
suit on the boulevard has been to Sc
cure very serviceable roadbed
highly commended by local and
United States engineers.
Under the inspiration of this sue
cessful roadbed a neighborhood lying
TO the west, called Orchard avenue,
decided to gravel on the following
plan: The farmers to donate the use
of teams and wagons with dump
boards.
Nampa Highway Methods.
The Nampa Highway district to
provide gravel, usually donated by
those who have it, pays the shovelers
and a man to help dump the loads
and also spread and smooth the
gravel on the roadbed, using for this
purpose a King drag. The freshly
graveled roadbed should be smoothed
with King drag or other implement
weekly for two months or until set
tied and cemented with the underly-
ing soil. Four inches of gravel in
the middle of the roadbed with two
inches on the sides soil in such pro-
portions as to shed rain and form a
smooth solid bed. Heavy traffic cuts
through the gravel in wet weather
until enough underlying soil has been
mixed and cemented with the gravel
TO shed rain and create solid road
bed.
A moderate percentage of play soil
