How to Build Good Roads
%. c. FORBES in Leglie's.J

lB. G. Forbes IN Leslieis.1 Z
Coleman du Pont has his own theory,
about roads and their upkeep. No man has
done more to arouse the American nation
to the necessity for good roads, both as q
peace and a war measure.
Il believe that more money will be spent
IN the next rs years in building roads than
has been spent in the last rs years III build
ing railroads" he declared. I have been
building good reads since | was 10, At that
lage / found it was cheaper, and o little eRs-
Ter on my temper to fill uD the holes In the
road than to be continually lifting wagons
out OF these holes.
Provision must be made for maintenance;
10 keep a road good it must be maintained.
This costs money! lot Of it. My plan to
provide for this at first and to keep down
road tax Zone Of the banes Of modern Ife),
Is to have the state, the county, the city or
whoever builds a road set apart Q width OF,
say, $50 feet permanently reserying SO feet
in the center for road PURPOSES, pipe line,
railways, telephone, etc. The building Of q
good road always advances the value Of the
adjacent land. Let the state, county or city
lease the remaining 200 feet, 100 feet on
each side, of the roadway and in q very
short time the income will far more than
maintain the road.
'As an example: About 1871, ! have been
told, Il Law was passed In New York state,
appropFlating $4,000 to build a stone
road from Canal street, New York City,

Opposes Breathing Fad
New Bedford Times.l

New Bedford Times.)
A widely known physician remarks that
there is nearly as much nonsense in the
deep breathing fad" as there Is in food
fads. Deep breathing really is beneficial,
but not in the way most persons suppose.
The common notion, ~ineuIcated by expon-
ents OF the big chest and fred blood COS
pei; is that the more air you take into your
lungs the more oxygen you get into the
blood, thereby giving the blood a brighter
red color and increasing the health of the
whole physical organism. The function of
the lungs. of course, is to burn up the I'm
~purities in the blood. and oxygen is the
chemical agent in that process. The impuri-
ties pass off as carbOnic acid gas. But the
|failacy. says this physician. consists in the
assumption that the lungs can be made to
do more work.
AS a matter Of fact, he says, the lungs do
their own chemical regulating, and use only
ae much oxygen as they see I'll, regardless
Of what their owner may do. zone cannot
increase the amount of oxygen in the blood
or decrease the amount Of carhonic acid one
bit BY deep breathing The lungs always
contain more oxygen than they can use, ev.
en- in the shsIlovest breathing--provided, OF
course, the air Is sufficiently pure.
The chief advantage ia deep breathing is
to help the circulation. The pressure Of air
in,lungs filled I'd their capacity drives some
Of the blood out Of the trunk into the limbs,
and warns the hands and feet il they are

The hoarse cry Of the Republican
central committee and the agonized
whisper of Whispering CLEARWATER
apprise the New Mexican that it
has refused to print the truth
about the failure of the First State
Bank Of Las Cruces.
Our frantic friends, like Mr..
lBursnm, who forgot his record as
a taxpayer in Socorro county, and
Mr.. Hubbell, who forgot he was
ever superintendent Of schools in
Bernalillo county, and Whispering
CLEARWATER, who forgot about his
Montezuma Trust company and
what he said about Hubbell and
Bursum four years ago--our fren-
zed friends have short memories.
The Santa Re New Mexican is
the only newspaper in New Mexico
which printed the truth and all the
truth about that bank fa~ilure-a
bank failure conspicuous by its
consequences under a Democratic
administration compared to the
numerous and disastrous results Of
political banking under Republican
regimes.
The Santa Fe New Mexican is
the only newspaper which printed
full and complete account of all
tile proceedings In connection with
that incident; the report Of the in
