BOOM IN MATERIAL TESTING
Increase in Facilities Has Grown Rap idly in Past Few Years in
 Different States.

The great boom in highway build ing which has come since the federal aid act of 1916 has led to an increase in the facilities for testing highway materials. The bureau of public roads of the United States Department of Agriculture keeps in touch with all laboratories which test material for federal-aid roads and reports that the number has grown from scattered few in 1916 to at least one in every state with two exceptions. They are distributed as follows: State highway department laboratories 20, university laboratories 27, and commercial labor atories 21, a total of 6S.
 Conditions have become such that 1t is practically a necessity for each state to have means of quick testing in order not to delay work. In pass ing on materials the laboratories are governed by the idea that roads must be constructed with materials close at hand wherever possible and give as- surance for the use of such material where it is suitable.

 Two pretty dresses designed for the young girl, are shown here and even the amateur dressmaker will under take them with confidence. That per ennial favorite, blue and white dotted swiss, Is cut on the simplest lines for one of them, with a straight skirt and plain bodice. But there is nothing commonplace about it. A square neck, large patch pockets, elbow sleeves and scalloped edges, with white organdie trimming, give it flavor of originality and the design turns out to be very pretty. The collar and tiny chemisette are of eyelet-embroidered organdie

GOOD 
LIGHT.EDGED ROADS PARABLE
Some Sections of Bates Experimental Road Break Under Traffic of
 Light Trucks.

(Prepared by the Upited States Department
 of Agriculture.)
 Some of the lighter sections of the Bates experimental road failed under the traffic of light trucks driven along the edge of the surfaces on the first day of the test. The road, which was especially constructed for the expert ments now being conducted by the state highway department of Illinois in cooperation with the bureau of public roads, United States Depart ment of Agriculture, is two miles long and consists of numerous sections of different types of construction
 On March 30, the day the road was opened for the tests, 12 trucks with bodies removed to make a load of 2,50O pounds on each rear wheel were started on trips, which will continue with increasing loads until the suit ability of each type is determined. The trucks were driven so that the outside wheels were on the edge of the pay ing, and almost immediately some of the sections began to fall. This was expected, as the sections were of light design and intended to demonstrate the futility of such construction.
 The road will be subjected to a num- Der of tests under the destructive pounding of the trucks, and it is ex- pected that much valuable informa-

fish. With fish, as with many other foods, certain ideas, many of them false, have gained circulation. One is that fish and milk or any milk or cream dishes, such as ice cream, or milk as drink. should never be taken with crabs, oysters or lobster. When these combinations have been found to disagree with a person, such food mixtures should be avoided. but there is no reason why the average person may not combine the two. provided the fish or lobster is not served with an acid sauce.
 In buying salmon the steaks are al- ways the most expensive, though there is almost no waste. The red or Chinook salmon is considered best; then the pink and club salmon, all good, but varies as to flavor as well as price. The practical housewife will use the cheaper grades for all made dishes. as the nutriment is the same The more of this grade demanded will tend to lower the price of the red, which is now selling at high figure.

 Next to salmon and tuna comes the sardine in popularity. The sardine Is not found in American waters-that is the true sardine. Millions of cans are imported from Spain, Portugal and Scandinavian countries. There are. however, certain small fish caught in large quantities off the coast of Maine, known as American sardines; they are good. and relatively cheap.

Back to the old-fashioned nightcap that ties beneath the chin. No matter what hairdressers say about ventilat- ing the hair at night, the newer night cap-which Is the older nightcap In glorified form-is winning favor. To be sure, 1t covers the hair closely. But, argues Its wearers. 1t Is made of muslins and crepe de chine and geor- gette so that 1t cannot possibly shut out the air. Moreover, 1t keeps curled locks in order; it conceals kid or pa- per curlers: and-well, 1t looks pretty.

Hydrostatic tests on single lengths of concrete pipes are now being made in California, without the use of false ends and tie-rods. The apparatus con. sists of two aluminium cylinders fitting one inside the other and each having Hanged ends with a space between the flanges for tubular gasket. These fianges fit tightly into the interior of the pipe under test, and water pres sure is supplied to the gaskets and the space between the outer aluminium cylinder and the interior of the pipe Up to now 150 pounds per square inch is the safe limit for the appara- tus. Improvements will raise this limit considerably. - Popular Mechanics Magazine.
