the road is hard, smooth, dustless, and
without any ruts Or pockets, according
to Professor Gearhart.
Where there is a pocket in the road,
water will gather after every storm.
on works better on sandy soils than
on clay or heavy loans. Loan soils
may be helped by sprinkling a light
coating Of sand over the oiled surface.
After the first year 1t is better to ap-
ply from One-quarter to One-third OF
gallon Of oil to each square yard Of
surface In the spring and the same
amount again In the fall.
For laying the dust on city streets,
oiling may be as economical and more
satisfactory than water, particularly
II the soil is sandy. When city streets
are oiled 1t is best to cover the cross
walks with dust or dirt 30 that they
will not be covered with oil. When
the oiling process is finished the dust
or dirt may be swept away. Surface
oiled streets are not satisfactory II the
soil is clay or loan, for the oily dust
blows about and is carried into build
ings and upon walks.

The Germans have been attempting
offensive operations on the west front
during the days that news was with.
held. They made attacks against the
British troops in their newly won po-
sitions in the vicinity Of the Ypres-
Menin road and the Polygon wood.
Two separate onslaughts were made,
three hours apart, and both with huge
effects moving in wave formations.
Everywhere the attacks were re-
pulsed with heavy casualties, except
opposite the southeast corner OF the
Polygon road, where two British ad-
vanced posts were captured. Along
both sides OF the Meuse river
in the Verdun sector the French and
the Germans are engaged in another
terrific duel. Twice the Germans
launched infantry attacks in an effort
to capture positions, but on both oc-
casions they were stopped short by
the FreAch fire.

MOISTURE FOR ROAD MAKING
There 10 Certain Water Content at
Which Soil Packs Hsrd-Remove
All Grass and Weeds.

Road making is largely a matter Of
moisture control. When soil contains
too much water It becomes mud. and
when 1t has too little moisture 1t be-
comes dust. But there is a certain
moisture content at which soil packs
hard. And this is just about the
amount of moisture that a soil will
hold readily. This usually can be
maintained In a road that has good
drainage, that is well crowned so the
water will run Off when 1t rains and
that is free from grass and weeds.
These if allowed to grow, will soon
draw the moisture out Of the soil and
so remove the binding material.

Don't allow yourself to become
weak and rundown from womanly
troubles. Take Cardui. 1t should sure
ly help you, as it has so many thou
sands of other women in the past 10
years. Headache, backache, sidcache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, tired-out

bic. Other women get relief by taking
Cardui. Why not you? All druggists.

WHERE OILED HIGHWAYS PAY
Better on Sand Than on Clay or Loan
SolIs-oiI Sometimes More Sat
isfactory Than Water.

Oiled earth roads should not be re
garded as a permanent improvement
but are much better than common
earth roads, in the opinion of w. S.
Gearhart, professor of highway engi-
neering.
"Oiled roads do not require so much
dragging as ordinary earth roads"
said Professor Gearhart. "They she'd
water better and do not become so
dusty. Although oiled roads are not
so satisfactory as gravel roads, they
may be a help in developing good
roads sentiment"
The best results from oiling are to
be obtained by applying the oil when

TEACHING SOLDIERS TO SING
Soldiers At Fort shsfter Learn Words
and Airs Of Americas War Songs
From Movie Screen.

There Is one officer on Oahu, says
the Sunday Advertiser Of Honolulu, ac-l
cordIng to the Army and Navy Journal,
who Is firm believer In the value OF.
song as military asset to the soldier.
Col. James A. Irons, commanding the
Second United States infantry, believes
so thoroughly In the importance Of hav-
ing soldiers know the songs Of the ma
tion-partlcularIy the war songs-thst
he has provided a means Of teaching
the men Of his regiment just what the
war songs Of America are.
The method which Colonel Irons has
started at Fort Shafter is one which
should be used throughout the army.
IT consists Of having national and pa
triotic airs played by the orchestra
at the evening performances at the air
drome-Fort Skaters moving picture
theater-while the words are thrown
upon the screen where the men can
read them. In this way the soldiers
become acquainted with the words Of
the songs, and what is equally impor-
,tant, they become accustomed to sing
ing together. The soldiers are enthusi-
astic over the new plan and the sing
ing is worth going far TO hear. 1t IL
not impossible that, sometime within
the service of the men who are now
serving the second infantry, that regi-
ment may be called on to march from
Bordeaux to Berlin, and that the march
will be made easier and the spirit of
the men at the end of the hike win be
far better If 1t is made to the tune Of
"Annie Laurie"-the regimental am
them-sung by every man in the regi-
ment.
Cards have been issued from the
regimental press printing the words Of
"Annie Laurie" and the "Star Spangled
Banner" and the list Of 90 battles,
engagements and skirmishes in which
the Second infantry took part. The
first was in November, 1791, at Maui

CoNWcTS ON PUBLIC WORKS
Proportion on Road Improvement In.
creased From 1.3 Nearly to IS
Per Cent Since 1885.

The proportion of convicts employed
on public works instead of on lease or
contract has increased since 1885 from
83 to SO per cent and the proportion
on road work alone from 1.8 to nearly
IS per cent. according to a report by
the federal public roads office based
on a survey of many prisons. State
