Condemns Wet Amendment
(By Associated Press

TOLEDO, O., Sept. 27-If the two
proposed amendments to the Ohio con-
stitution initiated by the vets are
adopted at the November election,
every child large enough to toddle to
a soft drink or drug store will be IN
danger of becoming confirmed
drunkard. says v A. Schneider. county
superintendent for the Anti-Saloon
League.
Mr. Schreiber, continuing. says:
"Cnderneath the camoufl;se of liber-
ality the vets are trying to legalize
345 per cent beer. The beer could
be sold anywhere at all hours. Laws
preventing sales to habituals and
sales to minors would not apply. II
would open saloon in every dry ham
let without a license. 1t is the most
daring and dastaTdly move ever con-
ceived by the liquor people"

Reproducing the Talmud.

5inally produced in the town of Will
ma, Russia. When this city was cap
stured by Germany the electrotypes Of
the Talmud, it is reported were used

In Hebrew would take years with an
ordinary outfit.
1t was found necessary that the
plates should be made by photo-engrav-
Ing, and this work is now being done

TELLS GOOD ROADS NEEDS
Farm and Fireside Explains Best
Plan for Oval surface-ShouId
BE Flat as Possible.

Everybody agrees that the surface
Of a road must be oval in its con-
tour" says Farm and Fireside, "but
not all understand that this oval
ought to be as fiat as the character
of the road material and the lay of
the land will permit. With brick or
concrete construction the oval may
be very fiat, because the traffic makes
no ruts to carry the water Iengthwise
of the road, nor does the pavement
soften and develop depressions when
kept In contact with water.
"But broken stone (waterbound
maca6am), being susceptible to pene-
tration by water. and subject to great
damage if frozen while soaked, must
be given higher oval; and for gravel
roads a still sleeper pitch is de-
manded.
HAs for earth roads, the steepness
must be governed by the combined
influence of a number of factors.
Perhaps the leading factor is the
quality Of the earth in. each particu-
lar case. And next might be placed
the presence or absence of 'seeps' or
'spouts'; while another of these vital
factors would be the longitudinal
pitch of the highway"

PATCHING OFTEN NEGLECTED
Two Ruts Caused to Form Where
There Was but One. Before
Work When Road Is Wet.

Patching is usually neglected or
done in such way as to cause two
ruts to form where there was but one
before. That is the invariable result
of filling a rut too full. This work
should always be done when the road
is wet, preferably when the water Is
still standing in every little hollow on
the road surface, so that the worfkmen
can just see where to place the new
gravel and about how much is needed.
Unless the rut is very large. one,
it Is always best to shovel the gravel
from the wagon into it, rather than to
raise sideboard and attempt to dump
part of the load.
