$50, 900, 900 Road Law is
Passed by Legislature.

The 100000, 900 road law has
passed the House and Senate,
and with the signature of the
governor, becomes operative.
The law, as finally passed, is
very good, and guarantees to
each county at least two good
gravel roads. Most everyone
expresses themselves as being
we'll pleased with the results,
and with the roads in prospect.
The conference committee bill
which was passed gives the first
recognition of trunk line roads.
Twenty.nine million of the 90
million bond fund is set aside
for 1900 miles of trunk roads
connecting the larger towns of
the state. The remaining 81 mil.
lion are to be used in construct.
ing the rural roads of gravel
(properly bound) costing not
less than $4,000 a miie.
The federal aid also is appor
toned in the same manner as
the state road fund.
The town to town designation
of the state system, insisted on
by the house, is retained in the
bill. But an important amend.
ment is added permitting the
highway comission to make any
change desired in the fifteen
hundred miles of trunk line
roads.
Under the apportionment
clause agreed on by the com init.
tee, which caused the 3.day dead. |
lock, one third of the bond money
is set aside for higher type
roads. In addition the higher
type roads are apportioned the
$4,000 mile guaranteed for the
gravel construction, making the
total for that purpose 90 million |
dollars. The remaining two
thirds is to be used in building |
the rural roads of gravel. or Its |
equivalent.
One important provision of the |
bill is establishing a patrol sys.
TEN to maintain the state roads. |
The house bill would permit only |
Sl2O a mile for maintenance.
The conference committee re.
moved the Limitation.
The bill gives the highway
commission power to regulate
the weight of loads hauled on
the state roads, and the speed
of vehicles.
The bill authorizes the issu.
ance of SlO,OOO,0O0 in bonds af
ter March. 1928, and 1000. 600
each year thereafter until the
entire amount has been issued.
They are to bear interest at the

their value.

A vegetable which, when dried, Is
above criticism even by the most crit
ical, is corn. Other kinds Of garden
products may or may not be liked by
many people, but dried corn Is the
equal If not the superior Of canned
corn and can be used for practically
as wide a variety of purposes. The
following directions for drying 1t are
those advised by the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture.
Any of the varieties of sweet corn
having qualities desirable for table use
will make a good dried product. Corn
intended for drying should be gath

glazing and hardening have begun and

for immediate table use. 1t should be
gathered OnrS as it can be prepared
for drying, as corn deteriorates rap
idly.
Careful Preparation Essential.
Husk the ears and trim with q
knife to remove any injuries. The
silk need not be removed, as 1t can
be readily separated from the corn
after drying. Place the ears in wire
baskets or w~ire-bOttom boxes and
plunge into boiling water for eight to

set. A little salt may be added to the

After cooking, remove corn from the

taking care that none of the cob is
removed with the kernels. The glumes
or the hull attachments at the tip Of

Sacred Bull of the Egyptians.

Apis, a sacred bull wOrshiped by
the ancient Egyptians, was kept in
the temple of Osiris at Memphis. The
bull selected possessed certain dis
tinguishing features. such as a black
hide and certain marks on the fore
head and back, and other marks. The
birthday of the bull Apis was cele-
brated every year. When he died he
was embalmed and buried in a spe-
cial part of the temple and his death
was followed by a period of public
mourning.
