Far from habitation, on hillside
Ia the moors Of Derbyshire, England,
Hes dreadful chasm in the rock. The
,clasm is of no great width, but has q
sheer descent to q tremendous depth.
This Is the bottomless pit Of aEldoD
Hole" regarded for centuries as IN.
fathomable. The gap is surrounded
by. a low stone wall, and projecting
letlee, at one end enables the adven-
tuF1ys Investigator to peer down into
the gloomy depths. For ages the chasn
was regarded as q terrible place, pop
ulhrly supposed TO lead directly to in
fernal regions, A gruesome story re-
hates that 800 years ago a man was
lowered into the cleft to depth Of
500 feet. When the unfortunate fell
low was hauled up again he was raw
ing maniac, and died eight days later.
For centuries the place was regarded
with superstitions awe and no real at
tempt was made to find the bottom
until about 17OO, when one writer
stated that half mile of rope had
failed to reach 1t. AS the whole dis
trict is honeycombed with holes ana
crcvices, it is probable that the chasm
Of .sFldon Hole leads to q maze Of

Oil prospects around Kelvin, Mont,

considerable exploratory work has
been going on for several months,

as Mr.. Jester says that speculation in
oil leases is one of the chief occupa-
tions of many in that section, options
being secured on land at prices that
look large when the value Of the land
from farming standpoint is consid-
cred. He says that a noted geologist
familiar with oil regions of other
sections, is authority for the state
.ment that somewhere in the Kelvin
locality is great reservoir of, oil,

GATHER EGGS or SEA FOWL
Indians On the West Coast Of Wash
ington Take Desperate Risks
Robbine Murres' Nests.

The sea fowl known as the murre
arrives off the west coast Of Washing
ton early,in the spring, finds slit II
the rockcliffs or q. convenient ledge
where, with no nesting material, tile
eggs are laid. Egg gatherers, mostly
Indians, climb the cliffs daily, taking
out one fresh egg from each nest. The
climbers maintain their positions on
the almost perpendicular rocks by chip
ping out hand and foot holds from the
cliffs. These are used year after
year. A bag hung from the neck and
extending down the back contains the
egg harvest. 49,. ~~r ~s
The egg of this sea fowl, the Detroit
News states, has excellent nourishing
qualities for invallds. and contains an
abnormal amount of white albumen.
Though the murre subsists on fish, the
flavor of the egg Is not dissimilar to
that Of the domestic hen. A curious
feature in cooking is that the albumen
docs not become solicited and Of an
opaque whiteness, as does that of the
chicken egg, but retains its jellyltke
character and is light blue in color.
In size the eggs are approximately
that Of the goose. .'.@-s''A '''-.F. r's -..'

COMPILING COST or PAVING
Figures Secured by Bureau Of Public
Roads Cover 6s,000,0 900 Yards n
T.: 553 Of Work. ~ '%s5

Average costs per square yard Of va
rious types of paving for country
roads have been compiled by the bu-
reau of public roads, United States
Department of Agriculture The fig
ures cover 6s, OOO, 600 square yards of
paving constructed with federal aid
in all parts of the United States dur
ing the period Of 1918-21. The costs
per square yard IRE as follows: Sand
clay, 10 cents; gravel, a46 cents plain
and surface-treated macadam, 95
cents bituminous macadam, $210; b.
luminous concrete, $3.50; plain cement
concrete, $2.57; Acknowledgement
concrete, $2.T4; and brick, $4.1O.
These figures cover only the cost OF
the paving; they do not include tile
cost Of grading, and officials point out
that 1t must not be assumed that roads
of the several types can be construct
ed in any locality at these figures. For
example. the cost Of bituminous con-
crete varied from $1.7O In. the New
England states to $s.1s in the group
Of states including Kentucky. Tennes-
see, Mississippi and Alabama. In one
group of states the cost of brick
dropped to $40. Costs Of construct

FEDERAL HELP sTRENGT HEHs
Much More Accomplished Tor Country

prepared By the United States Department
OF Agriculture.l
Federal aid has cone a great deal
more for the country than simply to
provide funds for road construction,
according to the bureau Of public roads
of the United States Department Of
Agriculture. One Of the most far
reaching results has been its influence
In placing the greater part of the high
way work Of the country in the hands
of experienced engineers Of state high
way departments.
i In 1915, prior tn the federal-aid act,
70 per cent Of the road work was done
by agencies other than state high
way departments, most Of it by county
officials. Such system was bound to
be wasteful. Overhead costs were
high, engineers were not always en-
plOyed, systems to serve the best In
5terests of the state as whole were
not developed, and the opportunities
for corruption were greater. f#
