BUTTON TRADE
 IS ENORMOUS

The Government demand for large quantities of buttons has Led Am sricsn manufacturers to attempt to purchase back the stocks of whole salers and jobbers of buttons at the Dl 'ce asked the cutting-up trade in order lo fill Government regulations promptly. The figures furnished by the Bureau of Foreign and Domes- tic Commerce show also that there has been a greater demand abroad for buttons made in this country. The exports of buttons and parts from the United States for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1917, amount ed to 1882, ,104, as compared with S1 902,55 in 1916, and 654,S72 in 1914.
 Buttons, especially the larger siz- es, 40 to 55 line, such as are used on overcoats, of metal, horn, or veg etahle ivory, are now much wanted. The demand has not only absorbed the American product but has appar- ently stimulated the import trade in buttons.

 Eggs are much cheaper ill the spring than they are later on in the year, ana spring eggs can easily be kept over uh- til the high price season by putting them down in water glass, which can be purchased ut drug stores for about % cents quart.
 A quart of water glass mixed with twelve quarts of water that has been boiled and then coOlel will be sufficient to preserve about fifteen dozen eggs. A stronger solution should be used for eggs that are to be held six to eight months or longer
 Stir the water glass and water mix ture until thoroughly mixed. Use q stone far that has been thoroughly cleaned The eggs ,shOuld also be clean ed. Cover the bottom of the jar with eggs stood up on end. the small end down. Pack the eggs Sn they will coV- ar the bottom.

GOOD ROADS ARE COSTLY.
But Bad Roads Are More Expensive In
 the Eona Run.

the Long Run.
 Highway engineering has become a highly developed art. and good road making materials are plentiful. Con- seQueutly there is absolutely no excuse for modern road to "go wrong" with. in its first four or i've seasons of use unless petty graft and local politics can be considered Rs sufficient excuses.
 It is not enough that the surface of the road be compUSed of the proper materials. These materials must rest on firm foundation which extends to sufficient depth below the surface to withstand the effect of the frozen ground on either side. Furthermore, the surface must be waterproof in or der to prevent the entrance of rain or melted snow. which when frozen will separate and disintcgrate the best laid foundation. Also the rnah surface and gutterS must be Su constructed that the highway will automatically drain itself of all water. TLiS serves the purpose uf automatic flushing uah accounts for the continuous clean swept appearance of the well designed and properly con. strurtrd roadway.
 4 properly constructed highway Is expensive. hut it Is nn asset too obvi- ouS for argument. Too often. however. the first cost represents the deciding factor in the selection uf Il certain type Of construction. and the upkcep cost Is overlooked, It is lhIS attitude on the part of the town ur ruunty taxpayers or road commissioners, coupled with graft and politics on the part of the contractor. which accounts for Ii large part of tue improved roads which need to be reconstructed each year.-H. w, | SlausOn in l.eSie'S.
