KANSAS HAS A ROAD PLAN

Kansas is to allow one day out
Of every three of the sentence Of
every prisoner who labors faithfully
and cheerfully upon the public
roads. Road work is TO be organ
lied at once, and the plan has the
enthusiastic support Of J. X. Cod
ding, the warden, who in former
years did much to better the con-
dition Of Kansas prisoners and who
has just been reappointed to Office
by Governor Capper.
Warden Codding is a firm believ-
er in the opportunity afforded the
convict in road work, and he was
instrumental in securing the passage
Of the bill providing for the extra
good time allowance for road work.
He has written to the National
Committee on Prisons that the
proposition is to furnish twenty-fi five
men and one of the penitentiary
officers to superintend the work and
establish the road camps.
The municipality for which the
work is done is to pay the StaIe
81 per day per prisoner. About
fifty cents per day will be used in
feeding and caring for the prisoner
and the other fifty cents will be
paid the prisoner or his family. |
The wage, together with the time
off for good conduct, is an evidence
that Kansas is to organize the
road work in way by which it
can hope to secure the cooperation
Of the prisoners toward making it
q success.
The Kansas plan seems to have
much promise in it. The problem
Of getting effective service from
prisoners on the roads gradually is
being worked out. Since Kentucky
is to enter upon the experiment
hereafter it is of interest to know
what other States are doing. Facts
compiled for the Good Roads Year
Book show conclusively that the
are being employed to adj
vantage on the public highways in
1 number of States. All the States
ire not operating on the same
plan, but most of them are getting
rood results and are adding mater
ally to their road mileage at less
.ost than they could build in any
'ther way.

Right now is a mighty good time
to overhaul that farm machinery,
and polish it, and oil it, and get il
to running smoothly and without a
hitch or a break. The smoother
and easier it works the more divi-

summers work.

The average person looks upon
advice about breathing with derision
They say they know how "a
breathe, they say the same about
eating, and yet thousands are dig
ging their graves with their teeth.
They know less about what they
eat than anything else. A farmer
usually is the worst fed animal on
the farm. He eats and satisfies his
hunger, but he does not get the
food value that he might from
properly selected food. When i'll
ness comes he has no reserve
strength left to fight the battle.
Il is the same with breathing
The ordinary shallow breather
soon loses breath if he runs a
block or climbs a fight Of stairs.
He has no reserve supply for
emergency. There is no room in
his chest; it has contracted to suit
the limited amount Of air he has
been able to get along with.
To breathe properly, one must
breathe through the nose. If it
seems impossible to get enough air
through the nose passage, a physi-
clan should be consulted and the
defect corrected.
Stand before an open window
when you arise in the morning and
breathe deeply at least twenty
times. If you feel sore and tired
it is proof that you need the ex-
ercise. The ribs that should swing
out to give room for the expansion
Of the lungs are weak, not accus-
toned to work. To remedy this,
keep on breathing deeply. Soon it
will become pleasant.
Half the WEAKNESS of the body |
S due to fatigue poison, which
has collected and should have been
thrown out by deep breathing A
wise teacher when she sees her
class growing tired and listless,
will throw open the windows and
put the children through Gales
henic exercise. With their lungs
lied with fresh air and the poison
eliminated from their bodies, they
will return to work with renewed
mercy. When consumption finds a
weak, shallow breather, its work is
asy. 1t is no use to have your
ooms filed with. fresh air if you
10 not use it.
If our men wish to take part in
he preparedness of our nation
hey must become deep breathers.
