At an exhibition Of paintings a lady
and her daughter took much interest
in a picture which represented a sol.
der with hollow cheeks and staring
eyes. It was called "After the Attack
Of Lutzen."
"What is 'Lutzen,' Mary Amer" ask
ed Mrs. Crockett In a whisper.
Mary Anne admitted that she did not
know.
"Well, anyway" said Mrs. Crockett,
with conviction, 'it's a terrible disease.
I can see that easy enough without
anybody telling me-" Youths Com

prepared by office Of good roads. depart
ment Of agricultural
The cardinal essential In spring main
tenance Of earth roads, especially those
on heavy soils, is good drainage. So
long as the water can be kept from
penetrating deeply into these roads
they will remain at least fairly pass
able. To accomplish this on average
earth roads, however, is far from easy.
During the early part Of this season of
the year rains are often of long dura-
ton and tend to saturate the soil.
Water from melting SHOWS is perhaps
even more penetrating than long con-
tinued rains, while alternate freezing
and thawing of the wet surface tend
to increase the porosity of the soil and
permit even more ready access of wa
ter into the foundation.
The chief attention of the road man
must therefore be directed toward get
ting and keeping tho water away from
the road. So long as the foundation
can be kept dry, even heavy freeze
followed by rapid thaw will do little
or no real damage to the road surface.
A dry soil does not heave. The foun-
dation will thus still be solid, and
the road will be able to sustain the
traffic without serious rutting. On the
other hand, saturated soil expands
greatly on freezing and when 1t thaws
