Frightened by the small blaze which
he started while playing with matches,
the four year old son of Ellis Mcmillan,

himself. The family saw the flames
breaking out a few minutes later and
turned in an alarm at 3 p. m. yester-

but as there was no water available
and the fire was already far advanced
the chemicals had no effect on the blze.

must increase your payroll.
Now let us look at the land from
whence this food should come. In
1850 there were 4,385,897 acres being
titled. In 1900 there were only $780,
791, or an increase of little less than
100 per cent, and if we assume the
same proportion of increase in our
cultivated acreage as we have allowed
for increased population, or one-sev-
enth of the gain in the last so years,
only 1,155,O97 acres will have been
added to our farms in 1850, making a
total of 9,247,7 61 acres, which leaves
6,313,937 acres of land already taken
up by the farmers still undeveloped,
without ever developing an acre of the
land now lying waste in this state, or
in other words, if this increase con-
tinues, in 1850 there will still be 23,-
100000 acres which are not actually
under cultivation. If you are startled
by the enormous figure of $271 100000
worth of manufactured goods l have
estimated we shall produce in 1850,
thing what these 23,O0O,OOO acres still
lying idle could do if they produced
but $40 per acre that year. $230,000,-
900 would nearly equal the total
amount turned out by all of our great
factories, and to this must be added
the profit made by the several dealers,
who increased the farm prices at least
100 per cent, for 80 cent potatoes at
the farm usually cost the city man rs
cents per bushel. Allowing such fig
ure, the actual value of the crops
which might be produced annually on
these waste soils would be the as
founding amount of $3.50, 100000.
1t is certain that with the increase

the late spring and summer months.
At these times the eggs should be
gathered at least twice a day, placed
in a room or cellar where the temper
allure does not rise above 70 degrees
F., and marketed two or three times
a week.
Blood rings are caused by the de-
velopment of the embryo of fertile
egg and its subsequent death. 1t is
impossible to hatch an infertile egg
or cause a blood ring to form in one
1t is generally considered that eggs
become infertile from 7 to ID days
after the male bird is removed from
the flock. Repeated experiments have
shown that where fertile and infertile
eggs are kept under similar conditions
the fertile eggs spoiled much quicker,
due to the fact that they deteriorate
faster than infertile eggs in the ave-
rage summer temperature. Summer
heat has the same effect as the hen
or incubator on fertile eggs. Sell, kill
or confine the male bird as soon as the
Matching season is over.

The truth of this, like many other
rhyming prophecies, is very doubtful,
as years of constant observation have
proven. English records of the wea-
Their for 100 years back do not sub
stantiate this saying. 1t was found
that when it rained on this day, there
were on an average two and one-half
more day of rainfall during the period
covered by the prophecy. Neverthe-
less, some years found this season
very dry when it rained on st. Swith-
ms day and very wet when no rain
fell on this day.
The saying is probably based on the
fact that on an average this is the
hottest period of the year and fine
warm weather is probable for several
weeks. However, rain falling for sew
eral days about July 18th indicates
eAat the normal conditions have been
deranged by cyclonic disturbances and
so rainy or broken weather may pre-
vail for some time.

called Good Road bodies are only tenn
porary, being formed primarily for
the boosting of some particular route
where a chosen few have mercenary
interest in its construction. The writ
er has had the privilege of voicing the
subject of Good Roads to many audi
ences in the state of Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota,
Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina,
and Tennessee, aid in every single
meeting held, he found it to be decid-
eddy evident that it was not necessary
to try to enthuse his hearers along
the lines Of the difference between
bad roads and good roads, but the only
subject worthy of discussion (and the
only one upon which any good roads
advocate should be heard) is what
we intend to do about it." The gen.
eral citizenship of the United States
at the present time is vitality interest
ed in highway betterment, and natur-
ally great many new ideas are ad-
vanced relative to the best method to
pursue which will bring about sys-
TEN of good roads in every state in
the near future.
One of the crying needs of this
country, is for good roads. The es-
tablishment of good roads would, in a
measure, solve the question of the
high price of food and the steady in
crease of the cost of living.
The increased area of distribution
of the goods, wares, and merchandise
of our factories and stores demands a
new method and means of transporta-
ton. Good roads will extend the ra-
dius of service of the city merchant,
and jobber to much larger territory.
Good roads will keep the many mil
lions of dollars Of our citizens at
home, instead of being spent through
catalogue houses. Good roads will
bring renewed energy and thrift to
the merchant in every market center

Continued from last week.

Now let us turn our faces to the
future, for the next so years, with
the vantage ground of Is years of act
ual accomplishment actually known.
Let us assume that instead of an in
crease of 700 per cent in our popula-
ton it increases but 100 per cent, and
there will be in 1850, 1851 ,978 men,
women and children residing in Mich
igan. Again, let us assume that the
value of manufactured goods, which
had increased during the last go years
$500 per cent, increases but one-fifth
of that amount in 1850, and there will
be produced $271 ,452, 900 worth of
Michigan products, and that is very
conservative figure, for one of our
Muskegon industries last month pro-
duced here, and in Detroit, 81 100000
worth of motors.
Such population, largely employed
as it must necessarily be in the pro-
duction of such an amount of goods,
must be fed, and it is we'll for the
manufacturers, railroads, bankers,
and merchants to consider at this
time where the food is to come from.
1t really makes but little difference
whether you add to your payroll an
increased amount because the price of
food has advanced, or whether you
contribute like amount to the pro-
duction of food that your employees
may live in comfort on a smaller sal
airy, because they can purchase the
necessary food at lower price, but
please remember that the scarcity of
food means an increased Cost in liv
ing, and with that increased cost you

Of the month of July air currents will
slow down and make it liable for
storm action to be slow and sluggish.
Nevertheless, it is expected that the
barometer will register readings much
lower than the normal for this time
of the year. Temperatures will be
above normal in most all sections of
the country during this week with
many extremes in various localities,
especially along the north Atlantic
coast and sections of the Great Lake
region.
Mild, wet weather is expected
throughout most of the lake region
about Sunday the 18th, after which
date until near the close of the week
rainfall will be light in most sections
of the continent with heavy local rains
in scattered sections. Fair, hot, sui
try days with a series of electrical
storms and heat lightning during the
evenings are expected to be especial
ly prominent during this week.
A brief respite from this heat wave
may reach the lake region and Ohio
valley about Saturday the 18th bring
ing temperature to about normal from
the lake region to the middle Atlantic
and New England states.
However, temperatures will be ris-
ing suddenly over Rocky mountain and
plain states as the end of the week
arrives. This will be due to storm
activities, such as falling barometer
and changing winds to a more south
ern quarter that are expected to APP
pear upon the western coast at this
time.

of the state. Farm products will be
marketed more easily throughout the
year. Sales of merchandise and col
lections will be distributed over a
larger period of time. Good roads
will mean good times to the mer-
chants. Bad roads keep trade away
from town or city.
In order to have prosperous state,
or nation, it is necessary that the
wage-earner, as well as the farmer
and business man be prosperous. No
other factor of our civilization con-
tributes more to the glory of the city
than good roads. They distribute the
necessities of life from the source of
production to the place of consump-
ton. Economy of transportation is
regarded by all as the chief factor in
the cost of living.
Good roads will bring to the man
with the dinner pail cheaper and bet
ter food products. Good roads will
give labor lift by placing millions Of
dollars in circulation among the toll
ers of the state. Good roads are a
stimulus not only to agriculture, but
also to industrial and commercial
growth.
The public educator of today rec
ognizes the fact that improved roads
are necessary to his success. To the
church and the school house, the ma
ton owes its life, liberty and happi-
ness. Raise the standard of both and
you increase the power for good in
our national existence.
The manufacturing industries Of
Michigan would receive an increased
business from the general stimulus of
agriculture, industry and commerce
that would result from the building of
great system of state roads. Many
millions of dollars are invested in al
lied industries that would receive both
direct and indirect benefits from the
expenditure of state funds for roads.
A prosperous state can only be kept
prosperous by its citizens investing in
internal improvements that will best
develop its natural resources.
Good roads are recognized as the
most potent agency for general pros
perity that is within the power of the
people to utilize.
During the last eleven years the
agricultural production alone has
reached an aggregate to exceed $780,
0O0, 100000, sum that staggers the
imagination, and when we realize that
the movement of either 1913 or 1914
crops cost agricultural interests of
the United States $137, 100000 more
than it ought to, is it little wonder
that every good, live civic and bust
ness organization in these United
States is awakening to the immensely
of the Good Roads project and lend
ing every support possible by coop
Grating with every good roads move
ment that is brought to their atten-
ton

The popular belief that birds under
ordinary circumstances find ocean
flight wearisome, and that after Ia
boring with tired wings across the
seemingly endless waste they sink ex-
hausted on reaching land, is disproven
by facts. 1t seems rather that the
powers of locomotion with which ma
ture has endowed many birds are so
wonderful that under normal condi-
tons they can easily cross the Gulf
of Mexico at its widest point and even
pass without pause over the low,
swampy coastal plain to the higher
territory beyond. SO little averse are
birds to an ocean flight that many fly
from eastern Texas to the Gulf coast
of southern Mexico though this 400
miles of water journey hardly short
ems the distance of travel by an hours
fight. Thus birds avoid the hot, tree
less plains and scant provender of
southern Texas by direct flight from
the moist, insect-teeming forests Of
northern Texas to a similar country
in southern Mexico.

influence whatever on the number of
eggs laid. Therefore, as soon as the

should be removed from the flock.
