COUNTY ROADS
GET S16,153
Gas Tax Provides Record State
Aid Total Despite Drop in
Road, Bridge Revenues.

MinneSota'S 81 counties this week
were awarded a total of $7,25OOOO for
local highway improvements, the largest
sum ever alIocated by the State Board
of Allotment for county aid and state
aid local roads in the history of the
state.
The allotmentS to counties, made from
state one mill road and bridge tax funds
and the counties one-third share of
state-collected gasoline taxes, was
S687 $50 larger than last years record
breaking total, despite the fact that
revenues available from the road and
bridge tax were $l2,750 lower. This in
crease in the total of county aid was
due to returns from additional one-cent
gasoline tax, which provided the coun-
ties with 100000 more than they re-
received for highways in 1887.
Road and bridge fund revenues for
this year provided $1,250O00 to the
total allotments, and gasoline tax rev.
enues an even 100000 as compared to
$5,300,O00 for 1887.
st. Louis county will receive $216, 153
for its share, under the division of funds
made by the Board of Allotment, con-
sisting of State Treasurer C. A. Halver-
son, State Auditor Stafford King, and
State Highway Commissioner N. w.
ElSberg. The board, at its previous
meeting in March had allotted
S4,37,17171 of this years state highway
revenues to pay bonds and interest.
The gas tax allotment for st. Louis
County is $4,000. The one mill tax
gives S36,153.
The increased county allotments this
year are expected to be used in part
by more than so per cent of the counties
to match the S580,0O0 federal aid for
secondary roads that, for the second
annum, is available to the counties on
a dollar-for-dollar matching basis.

Diamond Is Found
In Can of Cream

Luverne-Everyone has heard OF a
diamond in the rough" but rarely does
one hear of a diamond in can OF
cream. However, that is just where one
was found last week. Robert Erickson,
who is employed at the local creamery,
found the diamond in a cream can
while going about his usual duties
The stone had evidently slipped off the
owners finger while he was doing
chores. Chances are that the owner
after missing the stone, has hunted high
and low for it and may even be harbor-
ing the belief that there is thief
around him. Mr.. Erickson announced
the owner can recover his stone by
identifying it and satisfying his curl
osity as to how the diamond came to be
in the cream can.

Sunshine Hard on Paint
Says u. S. Laboratory.

Strong sunshine is usually a major
factor in the deterioration of paint,
hence those parts of the house or other
buildings, frequently the south side, that
receive direct sunlight determine the
durability of paint jobs, according to
government paint experts at the u. S.
Forest Products Laboratory, Madison,
Wisconsin The durability of white
paint and paints of light colorS may be
somewhat longer than or years on
heavily shaded houses and somewhat
shorter in climates that combine sun
shine with long periods of either ex-
tremely high or extremely low humidity.
The nature of the wood painted like
wise has bearing on durability. The
cedars, redwood, cypress, and the true
white pines, in grades practically free
from knots, can be expected to hold
white paint and paints of light color
intact for 4 or years under normal
conditions. Edge-grain boards having
narrow annual growth rings and of light
weight in ponderosa pine, the spruceS,
and the hemlocks hold paint intact
nearly as long as the woods just men
tened but the flat-grained boards that
have wide annual rings or are very
heavy lead to early breakup of paint
coatings.
Strong, heavy softwoods, such as
Douglas fir and southern yellow pine,
ordinarily cannot be relied upon to hold
white and light colored paint intact be-
yond three or four years but by printing
them with exterior aluminium paint be-
fore the first white paint is applied the
of the coating can be raised
more nearly to that of the softwoods of
lighter weight.
Where more than 4 or 5 years may
elapse between repaintings, dark colored
paints of great durability are particu-
larry suitable. Experience has shown
that many paint jobs have been I'M
because of changing the
kind of paint each time the house is
reprinted. 1t will be advantageous to
the home owner if he keeps record OF
the composition of the paint used when
and continues to use the
same kind of paint each time he ap-
plies a new coating.

Assembling the right accessory colors
is not the easiest of tasks but let's see
| if today We can't work out simple
accessory chart to be used with a few
of the seasons basic suit and frock
colorS.
There is a decided feeling for gray
this spring so let's use it as our first
basic color. Wear gray with touches of
purple and pink with lavender cast.
This season it is smart to wear gray
with yellow and copper tones. Straw
berry shades and hyacinth blue are
also good colorS to combine with gray.
With navy blue frocks or suits, lighter
shades of blue are smartest. Other
colors that are pleasing when worn with
navy are pale yellows, dusty rose, pot
terry and desert pink.
With brown for basic color let us
use yellows, green blues, desert pink
or beige. Bright green's as well as
with brown.
Many woman IS choosing a deep
strawberry shade for her spring dress
or suit so let us consider what colors
would look best used as accent notes.
A lush combination with strawberry is
a soft shell pink and a dusty pink. If
it is suit, use the dusty pink for the
blouse, hat and gloves. Use the pale
pink for necklace and bracelet. Other
colorS that look we'll with strawberry
are powder blues, or so pale yellows
and turquoise.
Black of course never looks smarter
than when worn with crisp white
touches. However, this year it is a
strong vogue to accent your black suit
or coat with pastel touches such as
light blue gloves and matching bag or
soft pink blouse or jewelry.
Beige looks well worn with black,
copper tones, navy blue, some light
blues, purple, raspberry tones and
greens.
1t is exceedingly stylish to select two

Sterilization by Silver

Successful commercial advantage
has been taken of the discovery
made more than 40 years ago that
water in contact with clean copper
or silver becomes sterilized without
any destruction of the salts which
take place in distillation. 1t is known
as the katadyne process. The silver
is introduced into the water by the
immersion of plates through which
is passed very feeble current Of
electricity, and this is said to effec-
lively kill the bacteria, The cost Of
the current for treating a hundred
weight of water amounts to a few
cents. The greatest expense is the
silver, but it is consumed in small
quantities.

History of Coined Money
Dates to About 900 B. C.,

The selection of gold and silver for
the principal monetary purposes
was due to their adaptability. In adj
dition to their being desirable, OBJ
serves a writer in the Indianapolis
News, they possess the following
qualities demonstrated to be requi-
site to just and equitable medium
OF value: Relative scarcity, porta-
bility Containing large values in a
small bulk), durability, homogeneity
Cor uniformity, divisibility (capa-
BILE of being divided into small parts
and again united without apprecia-
BILE loss).
The use of the metals as money
by weight proved a cumbersome
process, and coming device was
introduced, probably by the Greeks
about 900 B. c. The bank check
came into use as means Of saving
the transfer Of coined money. The
bank note is an evolution of these
preceding forms, being a promise
of the bank to pay the specified
amount on demand. The Bank Of
Sweden is credited with having first
issued this form of money in 1858.
The scarcity Of gold and silver, the
need OF bills Of exchange and of a
money more convenient to carry,
and the issuance of government
credits forced on bankrupt nations
brought about the use Of paper mon
ey in European countries. Colonial
America early adopted this medium
Of exchange from the English.
Paper money in America first was
issued by Massachusetts, in 1890.
The object was not to supply any
supposed lack of a medium for
trade, but to satisfy the demands of
some clamorous soldiers. The first
issue of money under authority of
the Continental congress was dated
May 10, ITS, but not placed in cir
culation until the following August.

THE EASIEST WAY"

Every time hear Of young mother
who plans not to nurse her baby, feel
sorry for her, because doubt if she
knows what she's doing. OF course,
sometimes there is a very good reason
for feeding a baby by the bottle in
stead of at the breast, but these cases
are relatively few. What I'm thinking
of is the girl who thinks she'll save
herself time and trouble by artificial
feeding.
Since this mother is thinking mainly
of her side, rather than of the babys
let's take that first. 1t may sound
easy to let COW do the work of supply
ing baby's food, but there's so much
the cow doesn't do! All the boiling of
bottles, the careful preparation of the
formula, keeping the nipples sterile
these are real jobs, that take time
Bottle breakage is nuisance, too, not
to mention expense. It's hard to get
the hole in the nipple just right, too;
either the haby is getting too quick a
flow Of milk, it seems, and Stuffing him
self too fast for the best interests of his
digestion, or he's irritated by not getting
it fast enough, stops to cry, or gets an
intake of air bubbles that may make
more trouble later.
Then, if you have to travel, or if
you go on vacation, the problem OF
getting good fresh milk often becomes
acute. You man not be where you can
conveniently boil the milk and make up
a whole batch of bottles, SO you'll have
to go to the bother Of switching to
powdered milk.
OF course all this is assuming that
you found a suitable formula in the
first place. But it's not always easy
With some babies it's necessary to eX-
pertinent good deal before a mixture
is settled upon because on it baby is
happy, thriving and gaining.
But the real issue is-which babies
do best, breast-fed or bottlefed babies?
Many studies have been made, and they
invariably point to the babies that are
fed as nature intended as being health
Ter and freer from disease.
The diet of the mother while she is

Pinned Under Box
Boy Escapes Death,

housekeeping death by the pro-
verbal eyelash was the experience of
Richard Conrad, 212- year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Maynard Conrad, when
a heavy wooden box around which he
was playing toppled over, striking him
on the head and then pinning him, face
down, underneath. The youngSter was
discovered some minutes later when a
member of the family noticed one foot
sticking out from beneath the box.
When released from his prison, his
breathing had apparently ceased.
Prompt medical aid kept the spark Of
life burning but the boy remained I'M
conscious from nine o'clock Saturday
morning until Monday noon. He is re-
ported now as fully recovered from the
near-tragic experience.

Smallest of Deer Family

The Muntjac, or Chinese bark
ing deer, is. the smallest member
Of the deer family, says a writer
in the Los Angeles Times. Its stat
ure is no higher than that Of a
mediun-sized dog. They come in
two sizes. One is called a Chinese
barking deer, the other type grows
about six inches higher and has
some markings of white. IN inhabi-
tant of Southern and Eastern Asia,
these little reddish-brown creatures
scurry over the ground in a fright
ened fashion. the name was given
them by sportsmen of India because
of the sharp barking cry they give
when alarmed. Like their larger
brother the bucks have a small set
OF antlers, which when fully grown
have branches that curve inward
and downward at the tip.

money in that institution many years

claimed their money. It was believed
that the others would probably never be
located, but a third man was found
last week. The gentleman is j. G.
Richie of Stratford, Iowa, who when
located, was found under the care of
physicians with severe case of sinus
trouble. He had left a balance Of

Whether woman is feeding her baby
