STATE AID FOR ROADS

Nearly every one OF the state legls-
latures is considering this winter de-
mands for more help for road build
ing. Ten years ago all the states to-
gether put up but 100000 for road
building, exclusive of local funds. In
1914 they spent s43,000,000. But as
four fifths OF this was done by six
eastern states and two Pacific coast
states, the problem is far from solved
nationally.
Many of our big problems always
come back to the cost OF living ques-
tons. Food has gone up in price, and
one reason why Is that il costs so
much TO haul 1t over bad roads TO
market.
Early efforts In the better roads
problem were along the line OF trunk
line highways. Costly stone roads
were laid out across the states TO con-
meet the great centers OF population.
These are joyous for the automobile
trippers. But they furnish but little
help TO the man who wants to haul
his potatoes or his corn to the rail-
road station. Also il takes so long
to secure the appropriations to build
them, that the lengths first laid out
may be worn out by the time the
whole system Is completed.
What is wanted today for the eco

SUBSTITUTES FOR WOOL

With a growing business in wool
manufacturing lines and more or less
uncertainty as to the future supply of
wool, the manufacturers must look
more carefully than ever before into
substitutes for wool.
Rags and waste that have been in
abundant supply heretofore have been
in unprecedented demand during the
past few months, and tons of these
wool substitutes have gone abroad,
while more tons have been used up
here in supplying uniform cloth and
blankets for the soldiers OF the coun-
tries at war.
Now some OF our leading goods pro-
ducers are beginning to give careful
attention TO the home situation, par
ticularly in lines of medium and low
grade cloths used by the masses. and
the outlook for raw material OF the
usual character Is far from promising
This situation has drawn more careful
attention TO the wool substitutes on
the market, and some tests recently
coming to our notice have good indica-
tons of solving the problem in sat
isfactory way. The use of one or two
OF the recognized substitutes gives a
cloth that has the look and feel that
I gets by all except the cloth experts,
and there is no especial danger of
wool famine shutting up our mills.
We have never taken kindly to sub
stitutes for wool in the past, but the
results Of the tests have been so re-
markedly good that we can not but
admit that as great good has been &C
complished as in some of the very inn
portant machinery inventions that
have been responsible for our wool
manufacturing industry reaching its
present important position in the in
dustries of this country.
England may continue her embargo
on wool indefinitely, and with our
home supply. wool substitutes and
what we get from South America we
can move along. and no man, woman
or child in the United States will go
cold for the want of warm covering
so long as the price is forthcoming

HoTBEDs AND COLD FRAMES

While many use furnace heated hot
beds, the hotbed most commonly con-
structed Is one that depends on the
fermenting OF stable manure for its
heat. This is very effective place
for starting seed, but has the disad-
vantage that the heat is always de-
clining, and if started very early will
often have to be supplemented by a
later bed when the first one becomes
merely a cold frame.
Plenty OF fresh, straw horse manure
is the first requisite. For a short hot
bed late in the season the amount need
not be so large as for the early bed
that is wanted to last longer. While
a temporary bottled can be made by
piling the manure on the surface and
setting a frame on il, the heat Of such
a bed is far less lasting than one
made in an excavation. For the best
results in an early hotbed l would
make an excavatiC~ six inches wider
each way than the frame to be used.
The usual directions are TO make
this pit two feet deep, but l have
found that bed that is expected to
hold heat a good while should be
deeper, say about four feet. Not that
the whole depth is to be filled with
manure. for twenty inches to two feet
is plenty for that But for a lasting

nomic salvation OF the American peo-
pie, is not boulevards for pleasure
riding. but fairly good roads leading
around through the back country so
that farmers can haul loads TO mar
ket, without having to cut them down
one half because Of mud, sand, and
dust.
The state OF Missouri has recently
agreed TO spend dollar for dollar with
any amounts that may be put up by
counties or by popular subscription.
IL is a good proposition for every 9TH
er state.
The city tax payer should assent
generously to such a law In every
state. Every improved back country
road means that one man in getting
produce to market can do the work of
two. and one horse the work Of
pair. If there is any more practical
method of reducing living costs. 1t

bed | want a lot OF oak leaves from
the forest well tramped down for two
feet, and II dry, we'll wetted. Then l
prepare the manure by piling and
turning It twice TO get the heat started
all through IL, and then tramp 1t down
evenly on top OF the oak leaves. The
idea is that the oak leaves, once start
ed TO heat, will hold a moderate heat
longer than manure. Spent tan bark
from a tannery will be still better.
The frame is then set on and bank
ed around with manure. Place five
inches of mellow rich soil in the
frame, set a thermometer in the earth,
and watch il while the heat rises and
begins TO decline a little. When the
temperature is below eighty-iive, de-
grees il will be safe to begin sowing
seed, and you will find that such a
hotbed will retain moderate heat
longer than one with simply the two
feet OF manure. For a spring hotbed
a foot OF manure is usually an abund-
ance.

THE ROAD
BY Emma A. Lem

By Emma a. Lente
only a ribbon OF country road, wind
ing over the hills.
Slipping down into valleys green, and
bridging over the rills.
Sandy in spots where the wheels sink
deep, and ffinty over the rise.
Bordered with trees and bushes and
vines, and daisies starry eyes.
Nobody knows where the road begins;
nobody knows where IL ends;
II is there for the tread OF the tiniest
feet; 1t Is one OF the oldest
OF friends;
The children pass on the way to
school. and linger along the
way
So many charms has the dear old
road-how can they help but
play?
Rain and shine and wind and dew, the
road takes all as it comes;
Along it's line like beads on a string
are thousand coy homes;
Birds are its lovers. and wildwood
things go slipping along its
edge,
And meadows and gardens and fields
OF grain lie stretching beyond
its hedge.
Just ribbon OF country road, winding
and narrow and long,
Trailing Ger hills, and through the
wales and woods that are jocund
with song;
And IL you have lived by that highway
side, wherever you later stray,
In your heart OF hearts will its mem
DRY dwell to your very latest
day.
