SOME HINTS FOR BUILDERS
Great Care Should Be Taken in Selec- ton of the Most Substantial
 Roofing Material.

If you were without preparation or plan, rudely placed in wilderness, your first thought would be of food supply and your next of shelter, for these are the two most vital necessi- ties of mankind It is therefore natural that the best thought, and study are put upon these two essen tials.
 More forward steps have been past fifteen years, as regards comfort, service and architectural beauty than in the fifty years previous.
 Only in recent years has the hand ling of cement in building work been understood properly, and progress is still constantly being made with it. Modern hotels and office buildings are being equipped with sheet metal mouldings and steel veenered doors. Nearly every important change in building construction is away from the fire hazard of wood
 One of the most significant develop ments of recent years is the crushed slate surfaced asphalt shingle which is, on new construction and old, rapid ly supplanting the wooden article There are many reasons for this. The slate surfaced shingles add beauty to any building-in fact, there is really no comparison from an architectural standpoint Crushed slate of pleasing tints of red or green, is employed as a surfacing. The shingles are uniform ly eight inches wide and are exposed four inches to the weather No paint ing is necessary as the red or green crushed slate is natural and therefore cannot fade.
 The purchaser, however, should guard himself against buying a slate surfaced shingle that is not guaran- teed by a reliable and responsible manufacturer. There are so many kinds of roofing and shingles on the market today each claiming to be the best that it becomes necessary for the buyer to get some satisfactory assur- ance that the roofing or shingles are represented honestly.

BOY HAD USED HIS BRAINS
Certainly Window Was Broken, But Also It Had Been Repaired,

 Please, I've broken your window" 7" he said, and here's father to mend it."
 And sure enough, he was followed by a stolid-looking workman, who at once started to work, while the small boy took his hoop and ran off.
 "That'll be four bits, ma am" an nounced the glazier when the window was whole once more.
 -Four bits' gasped the woman. But your little boy broke 1.-the little fellow with the hoop. you know. You're his father, arnt you?"

Important Alaskan Product.

The potato is Alaskas most impor
 tant crop, and, according to a com merce report, it is most profitable one. Potatoes have been grown in commercial quantities at the Fair banks station for several years. The object of growing them there was to demonstrate that good potatoes could be grown in the interior, and the re- port says that the farmers ill the vicinity have taken the hint. Nearly all of them now devote considerable acreage to this vegetable. One farmer estimated his crop as high as fifty tons, which, at cents a pound or $50 ton, the lowest price at which pota- toes have been sold in Alaska up to the present time. would bring him $4,000. Hog raising has also been started at Fairbanks, the hogs being fed on the unmerchantable potatoes.

FRANCIS J. KEEPER HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED TO CONSTRUCT
 NINE MILES OF ROAD.
GRADES WILL BE REDUCED
Funds With Which the Construction Will Be Accomplished Are De- rived From National Forest
 Revenues.
HarrlSOn.-

Harr1SOn.-
 Francis J. Kiefer, supervisor of the Ozark national forest at Harrison, has just been authorized by the district forester at Washington to start imme diate construction of nine miles of road in that portion of the Ozark for est lying in Pope County. The road to be improved is to be joined through Dover to the 26-mile macadam high way from Russellville through Dover Scottsville and Hector, to be built by an improvement district for which $100,000 contract has already been let
 The nine-mile stretch which the forest service is now to build is a link in the highway planned from Rus seilville to Harrison and will extend from near Owen Ford on Big Piney creek to the J. M Newton place on the head of Moccasin creek. From there, as funds become available from year to year, the road will be extend ed to the crest of Freeman mountain, upon which road now extends north ward into Newton county, leading to Jasper, the county seat.
 The work of the forest service will be to reduce the grade of the present road from 15 per cent and 20 per cent to an average of per cent, provide ditches and culverts, and make a smooth firm earth surface. The work will be an example in the proper con- struction of good earth road.
 The funds with which the construc- tfon will be accompanied are derived from national forest revenues, coming mainly from the sale of mature tim Der that is removed to improve the stand by making room for the younger trees sn which to develop.
 The settlers are leading staunch support to the work of the forest serv- ice and will donate services literally in the construction and lend every possible aid in the good road move ment
