PERFECTED AND ROADS TO BE
BUILT FOR PERHsNENcY.

ance Of building good roads 4 meet

BY 3 F. Crist, attended by about 25

eral short talks made, and it was
agreed that they take the advice Of the
ex-state commissioner Of highways,
that was 10 have permanent organi-
zation with a president. vice presi-
dent. secretary. and treasurer, com
mittee on membership, and an advise
" committee. who would first desig-
nate the roads that they thought most
important 10 the community, and they
and this organization, when complet-
ed, would cooperate with the county
road officials. They heartily endorsed
the idea advanced by the ex-commis-
sioner OF highways Of keeping books
as to the cost and maintenance of
the road. etc. They would first have
the county engineer make plans, speci-
fcations and profiles, and the estimat-
ed cost. and then the road be built by
volunteers or by contract. This organi-
zation viii assist the county road Of
fcials in getting at the exact cost and
the maintenance of each mile Of road
built.

To Keep Milk From CurdIIna.

An important particular in which
cows milk differs from mothers milk
for feeding infants is that the former
Is likely to curdle. Some children fed
on cows milk are apt to suffer from
the formation Of large, tough curds. II
citrate OF soda is added to milk in the
proportion of half a dram OF soda to
pint of milk no curds will be formed.
Given in this proportion, citrate OF
soda is said to be entirely harmless
and is often Sound very useful in feed
ing infants. The addition Of barley
water or any other thin cereal cruel
has much the same effect

The Science OF Diet.

People of a nervous disposition need
a nourishing. nerve-biilding diet. Eggs
served in various ways, milk. cereals,
etc. should form a standard part OF
the diet Be careful of lavish use OF
tomatoes, red meats. Supply your
table with quantities of fruit and fresh
vegetables, and serve bran bread or
biscuits frequently. Should you have
a tendency to obesity, be careful to
avoid an excess of starch and sweets.
Consult your physician about any
especial tendency that you know your
family or any member OF 1t to possess.
and, guided by his advice. eliminate
such foods as might be harmful. In
families where there is no special in
disposition or hereditary tendency to
be considered. let common sense
guide you. read up on dietetics and
keep your table free from unhealth-
full combinations and indigestible
foods. You will find the study an in
teresting one. but beware of fads. A
diet must be varied to be wholesome,
and il is better to use spices and
condiments in moderation than to let
your table lack favor from overzeal
in leaving out everything that is not
pre- eminently Wholesome.

LET CITIZENS
HAVE ALL THE
WATER NEEDED
KEEP WATER THE MAINS NOV
ING AND DRAIN STAND PIPE,
MIGHT HELP THE TASTE AND
SMELL OF CITY WATER.

A suggestion was offered this morn
ing that might do a lot toward solving
the water problem that is now veXing
the citizens OF the city not from
lack of the water supply, but the
taste and smell that one is compelled
to stand while shaking their thirst if
any there be who use water for such
purposes
The water when taken directly from
the city lake is not very bad, accord
ing to a statement of several who were
there Yesterday The water constantly
circulated by the wind become aerat-
ed. but one man who has kept in close
touch with the situation, states that
the fault is with the mains of the
city and the stand pipe that have
been filling with sediment for some
time and should be flushed repeatedly.
He suggested that the city water de-
partment take the meter readings of
all citizens who use city water for
the last month. and make the same
charge for their water supply for next
month but to let them have all the
water they want to sprinkle lawns,
water gardens and keep down dust in
roads about their premises, this would
increase the amount of water used by
many thousands of gallons daily, and
this together with repeated flushings
of the mains, he says, will cure the
existing evil.
As matters are at present time, the
water is bad. but an analysis has
proven It to be free from germs and
not at all dangerous to health. The
suggestion made above may be given
attention by the city commissioners
at the meeting tomorrow night
