CAMELs AND OXEN IN WAR
Hump Backed Animals Especially Use
ful and Egypt Has 10000 IN Army
Service IN the Deserts.

Far the most interesting and Curl
Gus use to which an animal is sub
jected is the use of camels chosen
and trained because Of their strange
coloring and height, says a war cor
respondent. Small groups Of them
have been stationed among clumps Of
acacia trees with a spy mounted on
the animals neck. This is the safest
place q person could be, for the camel
or giraffe, standing with only his
head above the trees, looks precisely
like a bit of the foliage in the dis
lance.
Camels are especially good for
desert warfare, because they can go
without water so long and can easily
carry loads weighing from 400 to
500 pounds. In the last Afghan cam
lpaign the British lost over $4,000
lcamels and today in Egypt there are
10000 in army service. They are
especially used for transportation
purposes. Great numbers of oxen are
used in France today. They do not
lbalk at autos and seem to know no
fear from torpedoes.

HOW TO PREVENT ROAD DUST
Breaking Up Of Ridges Formed When
Roadbed Is Wet From Standing
Water Causes Trouble.

Dust In the road is largely caused
BY the breaking up Of the ridges
formed when the road bed is wet from
standing water. If the roadbed is
kept well crowned and smooth water
will run of. The surface will soften
up some In case Of long rain, but II
win not be nearly so bad as when
there are ruts which hold the water.
The wheels of each passing vehicle
make the rut a little deeper. The
best way to keep the roadbed smooth
is to run over 1t with the road drag
This should be done soon after II
rains. The soil is then soft so IL can
be easily scraped off and dropped into
any depressions. The harrow also
lays the soil down in layers. 1t sort
Of plasters it down, which makes a
harder surface than when the soil is
dumped onto the roadbed. The road
drag is the most effective dust proven
Ter except olling the roads.
