or stone, with gravel next in favor,
says Indiana Farmers Guide. But
even such roads fall into disrepair, If
given no attention What is said to
be the worst stretch of highway In
IlinbS was once Il magnificent mac
adtim road Now it is almost impass-
able owing to the deep hollows and
ruts which it contains. Everyone gives
1t wide berth and 1t is "black listed"
in all automobile guides. Concrete
and brick paving also must have over
sight and repair.
Autoists have a saying that there
is NO better road than a dirt road
when it is dry. This is because, in
the case of a well-drained earth road
passing vehicles smooth out the ruts
left after rain and iron 1t into n
sufficiently level surface to permit Of
easy travelling. Here, again, 1t is n
case Of "workinT the roads," though
the work given is of an automatic
kind and rendered without thought OF
the service performed. However, it
sometimes takes a long time to smooth
out the roughness after a rain-espe-
cially If the soil is heavy clay. And
usually the same makeshift attention
is given the earth road that is the
too-frequent lot Of macadam and
gravel.
In some townships the dirt roads
are dragged at rather infrequent In
tervals and If rain comes right after
the dragging the effect of the latter
is largely nullified. The best dir
roads, year in and year out, are thos'
which are dragged whenever possible
at. all seasons of the year. Thu
should be done as soon after ever.
rain as possible but not when the nut
is In such condition that it will sticl
to the drag. 1t Is best to drag on
side of the road at time and forbi
travel upon It until 1t Is thorough
dry. AS general rule the softer tn
material of which road is compose
the more frequent attention 1t shout
receive. But let no one forget tina
good roads of whatever kind are po'
sible only at the price of constant owe
sight.

HapIess cIarlbers Encounter.

The sun was slowly sinking in the
usual place. Claribel Skippenhop, over
whose youthful head scarce thirty-sev-
en- summers had lightly flown, sat in
reguation-size hammock, idly swinging
her foot to the tune of Keep the
Home Liars Squirming," played on a
Hottentot bagpipe AZ miles away.
Suddenly thought seized her. She
tried to scream and break its hold. She
succeeded in both. Probably one and
fifteen eight millionths of cubic
second was allowed to elapse between
her scream and the time the thought
was covering at her feet.
"Avaunt" she cried. Don't you
know this Is my thoughtless day? Now,
doggone 1t, I'll have a headache"
Then she went back to swing her
foot and the hammock.

AMOUNT OF FOOD NEEDED
Committee of Experts Has Decided
Just What Must Be Supplied to
the Average Man.

AS a basis for calculating the amount
of food which must be provided for
the human system the interallied scien-
titic food commission has found that
an average man of l54 pounds working
eight hours a day requires food having
an energy value of $500 calories.
The commission consists of repre-
sentatiyes Of the United States, France,
Italy, Bel Gium and Great Britain. and
its purpose is To consider the food prob.
lem of the allies from scientific point
of view, and in agreement with the in
terallicd executives to make proposals
to the allied governments.
The commission agreed that in event
1t should become impossible to supply
$500 calories of food, reduction OF
10 per cent could be suffered for some
time without injury to health. The
minimum ration of fat for the aver
age man" was determined upon as two
and tve-eghths ounces day.
The commission recommended that
uniform average milling extraction O
81 per cent for wheat be adopted
throughout the allied countries, bu
this extraction may vary from 50 pc
cent in summer TO 80 per cent in win
ter.
The commission held sessions il
London, Paris and Rome.

RESULTS FROM GOOD ROADS
After improvement Price of Tiilable
Lands Show Big Increase-Chii-
dren Benefited.

After improving the main market
roAds in four counties in Virginia
and one each in New York, Alabama,
Florida and Mississippi during pc
rl0d of five years. a survey was made
of the work and its results. 1t was
found that the price of tillahle land
served by the roads increased from
one to three times the total cost of the
improvements. The total saving everv
year in hauling costs due To this i'm
provement in the roads amounts 10
SG27. 400 for traffic of about 3,500,-
GOO ton miles. The net saving on the
hauling, after dcducting the cost Of
interest and principal for the improve-
ments, averages 1l.6 cents per ton mile.
After the roads were better. the ov"r-
age attendance of children in the
lic schools was 76 per cent; bef"r
roads were improved it was &c
cont. Ten more children ont #
100 were enabled to get SCHOOLING

HERE'S ANOTHER FROG STORY

Confederate Tale Told by the

This is the time of the year when
fish stories are permissible, So the kali
ser's press agent cannot be blamed for
pulling that one about the frogs croak-
ing in such deafening fashion that
they enabled the Germans to bring up
their batteries without being discov-
cred by the allies. Hank Newman, who
invented the famous snapper" elixir,
partly hears out the statement made
by the Hun war correspondent He
knows all the habits of the Johnny
CrapaudS and he declares that they can
make some noise when they begin to
croak. II don't know anything about
those hloodthirSty frogs of the Chemin

Newman. "But down in Ozone Park,

JUST SIMPLE COMMON SENSE
Really Nothing to Be Alarmed About
When Speaker Uses Pretentious
Word "Psycholoey."

One way to get an audience nova
DAVIS Is to call the subject of ones
talk Psychology" A Harvard pro-
fessor recently amazed convention
of clothing manufacturers and deal
ers by delivering an address upon this
topic, i'm which he laid down several
principles about the effect of clothing
upon the wearer and the surprise OF
his hearers was due to the discovery
that what the learned man had dgni-
fed by long word was nothing more
than what more commonly passes for
common sense. A good many of the
things he said were already known to
them, If they had stopped to think.
When he placed them under the head
of psychology they sat up and took
notice, says the Oregonian.
He said for example, that the we'll
dressed man is 10 per cent more eff
cient than the poorly dressed man. lie
said that clothes that do not fit pre-
vent the wearer from doing his best.
! Cleanliness promotes self-reSpect. Self
respect is contagious, like confidence
The man who does not think well OF
himself Is unlikely to win the good
opinion of others. Comfortable cloth
ing made of good material well brush
ed, was the foundation of the super
structure, he said. He was talking tc
hard headed business men, and they
believed him, because their own expe
rience showed his statements to be
true.
