HAS THIRD ROAD BILL
Faction in House to Present Another
Measure-kot Satisfied With Either
Pitt Johnston or Eiwood Measures
Retains Highway Commission Fea-
ture

Des Moines, March with the
converting of the Iowa legislature this
morning after a ten day recess brand
new phase Of the fight over road
legislation during the present gen
erai assembly began 30 develop.
1t will take the shape of third road
bill, representing the views OF some
members of the house who are not sat
listed with either the itt-Johnston bill
or the Elwood- Mackie substitute.
The bill will De presented By Rep
resentatiyes Larson Of Montgomery
county and Shortess of Tama county
and vii! be known either as the Lar
SON Shortess bill or the Shortess- Lar
son bill
The new bill contains some features
OF both the bills now before the house,
and some which are not contained in
either.
Retains Highway Commission.
It retains the highway commission.
with powers much the same as those
1t now has the provisions relating TO
same as those of the Eiwood Mackie
bill. Like the Elwood- Mackie bill. it
accepts federal aid, and provides that
state funds required to be raised 10
meet the provisions of the federal law
shall be taken from the motor vehicle
fund. or from the road and bridge funds
II the auto fund is insufficient. II is
provided that there must be no increase
in road taxation to meet the federal
aid provisions.
Representatives Larson, Shortess and
Langfitt have been at work on the new
bill for several days. and it will be
presented this morning.
When the road bills are considered
Friday, 1t is planned to offer the new
measure as q substitute during the de-
bate Its hackers believe that II will
prove more satisfactory than either of
the present bills to a majority OF the
house.
Bonds For Bridges Only.
The most important features of the
bill not contained in the present law
refer to the issuing Of bonds, and TO
the methods of doing emergency re-
pair work. New features are also in
troduced in regard to the county en-
gineer system. and district engineers
are abolished On the whole the bill
follows the E,lwood- Mackie substitute
more closely than il does the J0iiT:;t0;:
bill.
The Larson Shortess bill repeats the
present law under which county SUI
pervisors issue bonds for road and con-
structive work, and prohibits the issu-
ing Of bonds for road work except in
cases OF emergency or for work alrea dy
under construction or proposed before
the law becomes effective.
It provides, however that bridge
bonds may be issued by vote of the
people upon a petition of 10 per cent
of the voters, and the passage of the
bonding proposition at special cleo
ton This election is TO be pdTti,i pa q {
in only by voters residing outside the
limits of cities Of the first class. In
order to vote bonds the proposition
must have a majority both Of rural
voters, and Of those living inside the
incorporated limit Of cities, villages and
towns.

Of the disease which now bears his
name. Addison's disease, generally
caused by tuberculosis Of those little
organs which lie Just above the kid
news. is marked by extreme prostra-
ton, bloodlessness, marked bronzing
of the skin, and death. There may be
other symptoms but the weakness,
anaemia and skin pigmentation are
the most prominent.
The dogged determination which
marked Addison's attempt to track a

ruling spirit of goth century medcise.

LONG.LIVED DRY
CELLS OF NEW TYPE

A patent has been granted to two
Orange, N. j., inventors recently, per-
tanning to type of dry cell intended
to overcome the defects of an ordinary
cell due to the drying out of the cleo
trolyte and the deterioration of the
electrode even when on open circuit.
In this new cell gelatinus electrolyte
of caustic soda and starch is used,
and by this ingenious combination the
ordinary cause of trouble has been
largely eliminated, it is laimed. When
zinc and oxide-of-copper electrodes
for example, are employed it is said
that the efficiency of the cell is
greatly increased, being even greater
than wet battery employing similar
electrodes and an alkaline electrolyte

HOME GARDEN HINTS

Practically all truck crops do better
on a sandy soil than on one that is
sticky and heavy. Larger sized crops,
however, such as cabbage, tomatoes,
beans and peas, will do we'll, on heavy
soil provided it contains the necessary
vegetable matter.
The soil in most back yard gardens
is distinctly heavy. 1t will help the
soil greatly if the owner works into
it good amount of finely sifted coal
ashes free from all cinders. Coal
ashes are used largely for the physical
effect in breaking up compact, heavy
soil. Such ashes do not take the place
of fertilizer.
Plentiful use of well-rotted manure
is still more beneficial in breaking up
heavy soil because this improves the
texture and adds fertilizing material
Many garden soils are sour. Tc
offset acidity and also to improve the
physical properties of the soil the
garden specialists recommend the use
of lime. Burnt lime should be ap
piled at the rate of 1000 pounds to the
acre or slaked lime at the rate o1
about 1,10o pounds to the acre. A gar
den plot so by 100 feet is approximate
ly one-ninth of an acre.
To apply the lime, broadcast it ane
mix it freely with the surface soil b!
narrowing or raking. Lime should b.
applied before the crops are set ou
or planted and should not be applied
at the same time that fertilizer o.
manure is put on.
Manure will greatly improve land
If we'll rotted manure is not available
it may be advisable to use complete
chemical fertilizer. Apply at the rat
of 800 to 1000 pounds per acre I
mixture containing 2 to 4 per cen
nitrogen, 8 per cent phosphoric acid
and / to 2 per cent potash. The anna
teur gardener will find it easier t
use ready-mixed fertilizer, which ca
be obtained from any reliable dealer.
Sunlight Necessary for Garden
No amount of fertilizer, water an
cultivation will make up for the alb
sence of sunlight in a garden. HON
gardeners before attempting for tn
first time to use back yard or othe
space should consider carefully no,
many hours day any part of tn
yard is in shadow from buildings
fences or trees. At least five hour
of sunlight day is necessary for
successful garden. The more sunligh
they get the better it is for most vege
tables. For this reason it is bad prac
tice to put plants of low habit be
tween tall-grwing plants which wi
shade them for the greater part of tn
day AS rule, foliage crops such a
lettuce, spinach and kale do fairly we
in partial shade, but even these mus
have sunshine two or three hours
day. In laying out the garden, there
fore, use shadier parts for such plant
and reserve the sunny spaces for thos
which must have plenty of sunlight t
grow and fruit properly.
