Raw silk at $500 per pound has ap-
parently no terrors for the people of
she United States or the manufactur-
ers who supplied them the $5o0,00o,-
600 worth of silk goods which they
consumed in 1917. lecture recently
delivered before a class in the educa-
tional department of the National City
Bank of New York showed that the
value of raw silk imported into the
Emitted States in the calendar year
1917 was double that of 1915 and far
exceeded that of any earlier year.
Never before has so much raw silk
been imported; never before has so
high price been paid for it. and
never before has SO great a value of
silk manufactures been brought in
from abroad.

BOOSTING GOOD ROADS.

The postoffice department on Mareh
Is increased the weight limit of par
eel post packages to seventy POUNDS
for delivery within the first, second
and third zones, and to fifty pounds
for delivery in all other zones. This
is intended particularly to enable the
producer to ship larger quantities of
farm produce direct to consumers.
That part of the country which has
the best roads will derive the greatest
benefit from the new arrangement.
The department also is establishing
inter-city motor truck routes. with the
primary object of providing farmers
with a means for making direct ship
ments of produce to the cities. These
routes range from SO to 125 miles in
length and will have daily service. 1t
is intended that an uninterrupted
chain of them shall extend from Port
land, Me-, to New Orleans.
These star" routes have already
been surveyed, and the postoffice de-
partment has advertised for bids for
the operation of motor trucks over
them.
Two other chains have been
planned, one extending from Lynch
burg, Va, to Hagerstown. Md, Pitts
burg, Columbus, and Indianapolis. and
the other from Charleston, w. Va, to
Columbus, O., Cincinnati, Louisville.
Chattanooga and Atlanta. The total
length of these three chains is upward
of 1000 miles.
Where bids are considered excess
siveIy high, the government will buy
and operate it's own trucks. 1t is now
operating government-owned trucks
on the following routes:
Washington, D. c., to Leonardstown.
Nd, 54 miles; Washington to Balti-
more; Baltimore to Philadelphia, 10
miles; Baltimore to Gettysburg. So
miles; Annapolis to Solomons, Md, Sc
miles
Trucks operating over these star
routes, which are routes over which
mail is not handled under railroad
contracts, will collect and deliver all
classes of postal matter, including par
eel post, at all postoffices along the
way. 1t is estimated by the fourth as
/ sistant postmaster general, who has
supervision of the star routes, that to
extend this system turnout the coun-
| try would require in the neighborhood
of 100. 900 trucks.
| Uncle Sam is becoming the great
est good road booster in the world
and every farmer and business man
should aid in the good work.

Leon.
Surrounded by its prosperous wheat
fields, the shabby little town of Leon
in northern Spain seems peacefully
Indifferent to its out-at-eibows ap

streets are not enlivened by the bristle

The humble dwellings of the Leon
csc lie in the very shadow of one of
Europe's most wonderful cathedraIs
made possible by their ancestors gem

The cathedral is the center from
which radiates the tranquility and
harmony felt turnout the town. Its
spires and towers of softly yellowed
stone rise in gracious welcome above
a mass of trees. A multitude of win
ooWs give promise of a bright, sunlit
interior. Carved columns and figures
frame the portals, and quaint gar
goyles glover from hooks in the cor

Inside the hall is vast and silent,
lighted by scores of stained glass win
