PLAN BIG MEETING.

The Stationary Engineers associa- tion of this city are planning a big initiation meeting to be held on No-- vember 3Oth, the club rooms, 119 Broad street. Frederick Felderan of New York, the national vice president of the organization, and aJmes T. Taylor, also of New York, national treasurer, have been invited and will no doubt accept.
 At recent meeting of the organ- ization it was voted that the local body would support the national body in its fight against the Engineers BiIl' which will come before the House during the next session. It is claimed that the purpose of the bill is to substitute the name "engine- man. for ''engineer'' and thus make void the Engineers license regu1a- tions which are most important.

It Is the season when the rural
dweller in nearly any part of the Uni

he has devoted no other labor.
Trapping Looks Easy.
Wildanimal trapping looks easy to
most farm boys until they have tried
and failed. Success demands knowl-
edge of the animals and their habits
The red fox, for instance, must be
caught by wiles as cunning as his own.
Traps and the ground where they are
set must be free from human scents
Steel traps are cleaned by boiling with
pungent twigs or by burying or leaving
in running water for day or two, af-
ter which they should be handled only
with leather or waXed cotton gloves
Breeding grounds, hunting grounds and
peculiar habits of the animals should
be well studied beforehand. Traps are
sometimes set In springs that do not
generally freeze over. A little island
is built up some time before the trap
is set. A No. or No. 3 steel trap is
imbedded in the soil with a piece Of
moss covering the pan. A bit Of faint
ed meat, preferably game, is used for
bait.
In making land set, shallow hole
is made to conceal the trap and the
stake and chain which hold it. The
earth removed should be placed on
cloth, and all that is not used should
be carried away. The trap Is covered
with dry earth, free from anything
which would clog the jaws.
Foxes often follow paths or trails,

HlMALAYAS IN SECOND PLACE
Exploration in Tibet Have Revealed
Existence of More Massive
Mountain Range.

Among the greatest results achieved
by the Hedin explorations in Tibet
was the discovery Of a continuous
mountain chain, 1900 miles long,
stretching east and west, and which,
taken as a whole, is the most massive
range on the crust Of the earth. Its
average height above sea level is
greater than that of the Himalayas,
and although it's peaks are from 1900
to 5000 feet lower than Mount Ever
est, its passes average 1900 feet high
er than those Of the Himalayas.
The eastern and western parts of
this range were known before, but the
central and highest part, in Bongba,
was unexplored previous to Doctor
Hedin's visit. He crossed ten passes
in the range.

FARM EQUIPMENT ESSENTIAL
Successful Management 'of Crops De-

Of Implements.

The successful management Of q
modern farm largely depends upon
the efficiency Of the equipment with
which the work is performed. special
lists Of the United States Department
Of Agriculture point out.
The equipment Of the average farm
can be divided into about three more
or less distinct classes, as follows:
First and most important, are the
buildings, fences, implements, machin-
cry, wagons and all appliances used in
the more important farming opera
tons; second, utensils and machinery
used in connection with the dairy, gar
den tools, butchering outfit, and the
numerous small things for general use
about the place; third, the tools, ma
terials, and facilities for keeping the
first two classes Of equipment in good
working order.
In order to secure the greatest eff
cheney, all implements and machinery
should be properly housed when not
in actual service, so as to be in good
working condition when required for
use.

GIVE CHICKENS EARLY FEED
Excellent Plan to Have Some Grain
Scattered in Litter Ready for
Their Breakfast.

II there is reasonable amount Of
litter on the floor and the house Is rat
proof, it is a practical plan to feed 80
that there will be some grain left in
the litter overnight. This will be an
inducement to the hens to get to work
as soon as it is daylight That's one
practical and inexpensive method of
prolonging the day. AS rule, hens
like to go to the perches rather early
in the evening on cold days, but they
will be down at dawn if they know
that they will find something to eat.
See to it that some grain is there in
the litter ready for them. This is an
easier and pleasanter method than
getting around to do the feeding be-
fore daylight. If the hens loaf on the
perches until broad daylight one of
two things Is wrong: Either the
house is too dark or the hens are over
fed. Either condition is readily cor
rected and it will be dollars in your
pocket to do so.

ROAD :
BUILDING
CAUSE OF DAMAGE TO ROADS
Pernjcious Practice Of Overlooking
Small Trucks. With Marrow Tires
Is Responsible.

With the rapid increase In the num-
her of motortrucks operated over our
highways, it has been found that
MANY of what are called improved"
roads have failed to Withstand the adj
ditional traffic imposed by the new
form Of local freight transport. This
has given rise to new problems OK
road construction and maintenance,
and In some states has led to the en-
actment Of laws prohibiting the use
of the large capacity truck, on the
assumption that it is the heavy truck
that does most Of the damage to the
road. The first result Of this legisia-
ton has been to encourage the PERM
cious practice Of overlooking, under
which trucks designed to carry sate-
" a limited weight are forced to car
~ a large additional load. The tires
of the various sizes of truck are mace
of a sufficient width to prevent their
breaking or cutting the road surface
when loaded to their proper full ca
pacity, but when an overload is add
ed the tire width Is necessarily too
narrow. and the danger of injury 70
the road becomes manifest. The tire
width required for certain loads mas
been carefully worked out after many
years experience, and most states
have laws fixing the weight that is
borne by an inch of tire width. In all
standard types of truck the width OF
tire corresponds to the load that can
be safely carried, and truck manu-
facturers warn their customers against
CARRYING a greater weight than that for
which each size Of truck is designed.
The enactment of law prohibiting
the use of large capacity trucks leaves
the same tonnage Of freight to be
moved, and with the heavy truck
barred resort must be had to the
smaller sizes. This means In many
cases less economical and efficient
service, and prompts the manufacture
er or merchant to try to make up for
loss In load capacity by increasing the
size of the load. With this additional
load the gross weight on the tire ex-
ceeds the factor of safety, and there
by increases the danger of breaking
the road surface. 1t is self-evident
that a truck designed to carry two
tons with corresponding width OF tires,

practical value in the control of
chicken lice. Arsenic trioxid Is too
poisonous, barium fluorid, cloves, saba
dilla seeds and paradichlorobenzene
are too expensive, or not readily avail
able in large quantities; napthalene
is dangerous If applied too freely, and
barium tetrasulphid does not kill all
the lice. Sodium fluorid is the most
practical remedy given In this list.
The materials listed below were
found to be of no value against chick
en- lice in spite Of popular opinion re-
garding many Of them:
Angelica root, calcium carbonate,
calcium fluorid, calcium hydroxid, cal
cium oxid, calcium sulphate, colo

mitic lime, eucalyptus leaves, ferrous
oxid, flour, wheat, gypsum, helebore,
lime (air slaked), lime (water slaked)
magnesium carbonate, magnesium OK
Id, magnesium sillcate, orris root,
Quassia chips, road dust, silica, sodi-
TIM bicarbonate, vermilion, yellow
Ochre.
The fact that 20 different finely
powdered materials-7 organic and 10
inorganic-were found to be Of no
value shows the fallacy Of the old
idea that any fine powder is effective
against chicken lice if busted into the
feathers.

Overloaded Truck Increases Danger
Of Cutting Surface Of Improved
Roads,
must do more damage to the road
when it carries ton or SO more Of load
than it's tires were intended for.
A striking example Of the relation
Of overlooking to impact is given In
the preliminary report Of the United
States bureau Of public roads, In
which 1t is stated that three-ton
truck, with a load Of five tons, rum
ming at speed of Is miles per hour
over two-inch rut, had an impact OF
slightly over II tons, while 5k-ton
truck with load of 5h tons, under
the same conditions had an impact Of
only IL tons. The fact that the over
loaded truck had a heavier ''unsprung"
weight, that is, weight not sustained
by springs, accounted to some extent
for its greater impact, but there can
be no question that the overlooking
was material factor in causing the
greatly increased wheel pressure on
the road.
Against this danger truck owners
are constantly being warned by truck
manufacturers, who strongly advise
that no truck should be made to carry
greater load than the weight de-
fined by its classification. Some states
have enacted laws imposing fines for
truck overlooking, but 1t will proba-
bly, be found that enlightened self-in-
terest will prove to be the best check
on a practice that has been shown to
be dangerous both to truck owners
and drivers and the general public;
and a source of injury to our roads
that materially limits the benefits
from the motortruck as new agency
for local freight transport.
