President Prepares to Attend
Iheater, but Snow Interferes

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.-President
Wilson prepared to go to a theater last
night for the first time since his ILL
ness, but was prevented at the last mo-
ment by downfall of snow.
Those in close touch with the Presi-
dent say his condition has so improved
that he can go out for the evening, and
It is expected that, having once made
his plans to resume his former prac-
tice of almost weekly attendance at a
vaudeville theater, he will find occa-
sion to resume this custom when the
weather permits.

SENTIMENT FOR GOOD ROADS Governors Of Twenty-Five Western States Petition for Increased An.
 nua Appropriation.

If the passage of the Townsend bill depended on the support from Western states the measure calling for a na- tional system Of highways would be come law by aH overwhelming major ity. says a representative of a large rubber concern.
 At Salt Lake City recently governors of % states signed a petition, which will be forwarded to congress, to increase. Immensely the annual appropriation for road-building, to be expended dur ing the next five years.
 While the Townsend bill asks for S425,000,0 900, their petition calls for billion dollars. The Western gover- nors not only iadorse the bill as men, but as governors of their respective states. This action reflects plainly what the West thinks of the necessity of highways and furnishes an infiu- ence which cannot be overlooked. The West has gone on record as being will ing to stand it's share of the cost of a system of nationally administered roads, and the share will be a big one.

MOTOR TRUCKS ON HIGHWAYS
Series of Impacts Being Conducted as Arlington to Determine impact
 on Roads.

Preparsd by the United States Depart
 ment of Agrieulture.)
 To determine the destructive effect of heavily loaded auto trucks on high ways and streets, and to meet the de- mand for data on the design of road surfaces and foundations to withstand such heavy traffic, a series of experi- ments is being conducted by the bu- reau of public roads at the Arlington experiment farm to determine the im- pact of auto trucks on roads.
 The most striking single develop nent in the highway field in 1918 was the tremendous increase in motor. truck traffic. Five years ago heavy a4oter trucks were few in number and limited practically entirely to the paved streets of larger cities. These vehicles now comprise probably 4 to per cent of the grand total of all motor vehicles and are to be found wherever traffic conditions permit profitable use. But very few roads were designed to carry any large vol. ume of this class of traffic. Conse- quentiy, the cost of adequate main. tenanee was increased greatly during the year. In many places the damage due to the incessant pounding of these fast and heavy vehicles was so great a8 to require complete reconstruction

RURAL ROADS NOT IMPROVED
Not More Than one-Fourth of Per Cent of Nations Roads Suitable
 for Motor Traffic.

Official figures show that there are in the United States approximately g. 5000a0 miles of rural roads of which 12 per cent are elassed as improved. Road engineers, however, estimate that no more than one-fourth of 1 per cent of the nations roads are suitable for motortruck traffic. More than 6,000,- 900 motor vehicles are now using the highways, and of this number about 100000 are trucks varying from less than ton capacity to vehicles capa- hle of hauling five to seventeen loads.
 The most conspicuous example of anything approaching the efficiency of a national thoroughfare in the United States is the Lincoln highway. Or ganlzed as private enterprise six years ago, to stimulate good-road building, the officers of the association have raised several million dollars by private subscription and have stimu- lated the improvement of many sec tions of the highway by the states and counties through which 1t passes.

DUMB HERO ON CASUALTY LIST
Old Red Cross Army Mule the Only Animal That Was Accorded the
 Distinction.

Dumb animals fought, bled and died Tor the United States, writes J. W. RiXey Smith in the Home Sector, and only one lonely army mule, attached to the Twenty-seventh division for duty, was honored with a place on the casualty list
 The ex-soldier's magazine says: Many men of the Twenty-seyenth di- vision will never forget the old Red Cross mule who, so far as is known. accounted for the only casualty accred- ited to our animals in the war. Many time the old wornout beast faithful ly piled his way right up to the front lines with chewing gum and chocolate and cigarettes. Once, in some manner. he went too far, found himself in the thick of the fighting, got himself prop erly excited and-there are witnesses to attest it-kicked s Boche into oblivion. And the luck that had been with him stuck, for he came safely back to the American lines.

Dressed Beef.

It Is reported that Sir Francis Web ster Is wealthy manufacturer of kemp goods in Scotland and the own CT of stock range in Texas on which thousands of cattle range, clad, during the winter at least, In garments other than their own hide and hair.
 Sir Francis cows, 1t appears, wear suits of hemp cloth made in his own factory which protect them from cold and snow, make them less susceptible to tuberculosis and irerease their daily yield of milk.
 Each COW, 1t is said, has two suits a week. They are not elaborate affairs, by any means-simply overall blank cts that it loosely There are 1000 cows in his dairy farm and they use 2,000 hemp blankets week.
 That, of course, means added ex- pense, but the yield of milk during the cold weather is about 2 per cent larger than from COWS not thus pror tected.

ChIna's Coal.

The best Chinese coal is quite
 as good SIS the best coal of the United
 States; and the various fields of mer- chantable coai are probably as great in extent as all the rest of the coal coal fields in the world, 50 far as they are known. Anthracite of excellent quality Is mined in four provinces. The largest field now worked is in Shansi, and the famous mines of Ping Ting produce an abundance of it. In this district coal and iron are almost within a stones throw of each other.

TRUCKS AND COUNTRY ROADS
Noticeable That Highways Have Been Improved Along All Motor
 Vehicle Routes.

Tn and around all communities on motor truck routes 1t is noticeable that all roads have been improved to en- able motor trucks to maintain consist ent speed as well as to decrease depre- ciation. Thus the motor truck not only makes communities independent of any one particular line of trans portation, but serves the interests of that community efficiently and econom- ically. These improved roads increase realty values along the routes, ere ating a higher standard of public i'm provement and flaming into life a com. munity pride that is reflected in the prosperity of that community.

MINE CLOSES
WHEN PIPE
Line FREEZES

W. H. Williams, superintendent
of the Olympus Mining & Milling
company, which has been opening
up its property at the old camp Of
Freiberg, in Nye county, passed
through Ely during the week for
Utah, where he will spend the win
ter says the Ely Record. Mr.. Will
liams states that owing to the freez'
ing of the water which is conveyed
to the camp by pipe line the man
agament thought 1t good business
policy to close until warmer weather,
which usually arrives IN that sec
ton during the month Of February
or March. The compressor plant
was Installed some time ago and has
been working very satisfactorily un-
til the pipe line froze up. A con-
siderable amount of development
work has been done during the pres
ent year. and two well-defined fis'
sure veins have been discovered,
both of which show large tonnage
of good milling ore as we'll as con
siderable high grade One of these
veins is four feet in width and the
other seven. The adit tunnel through
which these veins are being devel-
oped has been driven a distance OF
more than 800 feet 1t is expected
that the tunnel will soon cut the
main vein for which 1t is being
driven. which is expected to open up
a sufficient body of ore to Justify
the erection OF a milling plant. The
property is making remarkably
good showing and when warm
weather comes development work
will be rushed with all possible
speed.
