I SECRETARY 8HAW ENERGETIC. New Head of Treaeury Department Sets a Hot Pace. Secretary Shaw Is the most Indus trious member of the President's cabi net, says the Washington correspond ent of the Erooklyu Kagle. Shortly after he succeeded Lynian J. dago, Mr. Shuw startled the treasury watchman by appearing at the department one morning promptly at 8 o'clock. The doors were unlocked by the wonder ing attendant, who thought that the secretary's home clock had slipped a cck or two. The next day Secretary Shaw turned up at the same hour, and he has kept y.-y the practice ever since. Few treas ury officials are able to maintain tho ppce sot by their chief. T:u latter's private secretary, Robert H. Arm rirong, comes nearer doing this than any of the others, and ho manages to j;et at his desk somewhere near 8 o'clock each morning. Only once he reported ahead of the secretary, how ever. The latter gets an early start. JIq rises at 0 o'clock every day, eata his breakfast at 7, and by the time the hands of the clock point to 8 he Is at the department. It Is safe to say that this 13 some thing that no other cabinet officer has done for more than a few days at a time. Ostrich Egg as Food. Cstrlch egg3 are only a twelfth the cost of hen ctfgs, that Is, so far as South Africa is concerned. Hen egg3 cost 75 cents a dozen.but ostrich epgs, each of which Is equivalent to 20 or 1'4 hen eggs, cost 10 cents. When re quired for use the housewife makes a s.T.all hole in tho top of the egg. The ipianttty required Is shaken out, and the shell containing the remainder Is corked up, as though it were a bottle. So treated, the contents of the egg keep quite a long time when caro is taken to place the corked shell in a tool place. The authorities have strictly prohib ited tho exportation of ostrich eggs, but the birds have been acclimatised j to South Africa. An American has . also founded an ostrich colony in the ton tli of Franre, at Nice. The results are that South Africa has dangerous j rivals in the field, and that ostrich ; rggs may soon figure on our breakfast ; tables.

The gain by underdiainage is Hint the surface of the water in the oil is lowered. The roots of cereals and grasses may penetrate as far as to the surface of the water, but never into it. li Is necessary to draw the water nil' to Mich a ilipili as will give the roeis of growing crops plenty of room to reach downward lor the nourishment that is myessaiy to their growth.

The growth of crops is iiuiekcned through the sum mer by the increased temperature of Ihe soil, which amounts to several de grees, and the injurious effects of early ftost are prevented in tlie same man ner. Crops are. therefore, jjivon an in creased period in which to make their growth ot at hast two weeks, which is a very important gain. lMviinage is the remedy for Wet soils. If the soil contains an excess of moisture the land remains cold t'.mil the extra quantity is gone. The drainage carries away ih' water from below and allows the warm air to etiier. When the soil become.-! warm the plain food is more readilv dissolved and the roots of plants become niiv active. A wet soil is always cold, even in summer. l--ci; taitluA llonn. j It will sometimes happen that the 10- ! turn in eggs from a yard of poultry Is , much less than ii should be. and won- j del is expressed that the hells don't lay I well.

To eiinmeraie th- phases of life that Would receive bcin-lils from heller highways would be to Unhide the ill l if list rf human avocations. Any attempt to ronlinr the bet tits of good roads to a particular class or , mi i n un ity must fail, because if a man does t-ot use the public road ill the ordinary ways of travel he docs reap the ad vantages accruing froui tbeiu in iln liirroa.-vil prosperity which has never failed to come to a section that has constructed permanent good roads. No other public inipi io i-tnoiit is so generally conceded to bring good to every inhabitant, and yet no other great put, lie work s-wns so thoroughly neglected or so poorly understood by a great mass of our intelligent cliizetis. Practically every State In the Fniott lias recently awakened to the fact that the prosperity of our growing country is to be along lines of productive and i commercial enterprise. A number of! these Stales are looking toward N'mMi Carolina for lessons in economic and practical road building. It is an kiiowlcil.cl fact that some of our counties hav. as good r.i.iils- as can tie found probably in the world while on the oilier baud, it i els,) a fact that a vety large majority of our comities have roads that are f iv.Uon: ly impassable nml as unsatisfactory as can be fiiund anywhere, our hope of salvation from this latter condition js tiiat the piiiille-spiritcd citizens are going to take tip this roads mailer in a methodical way an,! overcome the prejudice in the minds of s .line citizens wli.i think that a tax for building per manent roads is a costly . p,. inient.

The old labor system of voi king the pumic toads j not in keeping with advanced la. : hods In all oiher ib -partnirtits of modern life. A number of the counties ili .. in state have adopted liie plan of levying ! a small tax for road improvement pur 1 loses, to suppl-uncut the old labor requirement, and the results from this eoml, inatioii are of a highly saii-l'ic-tory nature. Kvery rotiniy in tl:,. State should at b-ist try il.is plan and see if it won't to sonic extent improve the rolldiiioli of tli-- public toads. In she South, the producer is ,-sp,.. chilly hampered 1 aus,. 1. cannot proiitably get his stuff to the g;oa! centres of trade and competition. A striking illustration of this disadvan tage to our North Carolina lann-rs is! seen ill the recent siaieinent from an authentic source to the off. ,-t that a' great many necessaries of life cm be brought from California inio our ,wn Sta:-- on the railroads and s..l, to our city population at less co-t than the same articles which must b" hauled Into the cities from points in the same county fifteen or twenty miles away! Tibs is because of tho fart that th railroads can haul prodiiro a tliois:n., Iiiil-'S on their Cilttl) lpi.MiS draper than our farmers can haul it twenty miles over our P.Alt IloAliS. Ami yet it is rather interesting to know that, the railroad companies are the most earnest advocates of improved public highways. Ordinarily we would think of them as opposed u, a pn,. of communication which would seem to compete with Ihein. P.ut they have realized the important fact that a grciter territory will be opriird 10 them; farmers ran proiitably haul their farm products from a much greater distance to tlie main line of the rail road and thus increase its trallic. while tli" general prosperity of the inhabit ants of the section will add to the value of prop --rty. promote educational facilities and n-ate a tendency to ward wider usefulness for every citizen whore this material advance un-tit is going on. Information on these subjects is being roiitimuilly i-ollectcd from every part of the world, and our Federal bivcriinieiit is making a study of the qi:e;iioii nf g imi roads from a sensible and a si i'-ntitii- point tit view, through the oifio.i of public Uoad Inquiries at Washingti.ii.
