AdTaatascs 0f Tkcae Roads to th Farmer, What Good Hlshwara . Woald Do For America. , The question of good roads Is para mount to every other now before the American people. It appeals to all tlssses and to all interests. Its proper solution will be of more benefit to the great masses of people than the build ing of the Panama canal. It will do more to extend the trade and commerce of the country. It will add more to the happiness, intelligence and prosper ity of the people and will contribute more than anything else to their social elevation and moral strength. The amount of time saved in domestic com merce over and above that now expend ed in passing over the execrable high ways of the country will go far to edu cate the people of the United States. The internal commerce of this country Is probably equal to the entire interna tional commerce of the world. Our for eign commerce in 1002 amounted to $2, 285,040,850. The agricultural products made nearly 63 per cent of the whole. or. considerably more than all other products combined. Nearly all this vast amount has to pass over public roads to reach railway stations or a market There are some things in the old world from which we should draw In struction and wisdom. France has the best roads on earth, divided into four classes: First, national; second, depart mental; third, military, and, fourth, communal. . The national roads are built and kept up by the national treas ury. : The departmental roads are a charge upon the departments through which they pass. The military roads are usually kept up by the government, but sometimes the government is aided In this work by the department through which the roads pass. The communal roads, like our civil district' and town ship roads, are kept up" by the com munes, but even these receive assist ance from the government when they pass through thinly populated regions. The national roads are paved like a street and have an average width of fifty-two and a half feet The depart mental roads are thirty-nine feet wide. Land the other roads vary in width. riot less than $7,000,000 Is annually ex pended by the French government in making new roads and repairing old ones. - The maintenance of roads In England Is vested by parliament in turnpike trusts and highway boards empowered to lew local rates on all property. The revenue raised Tor repairing' and build Ins roads is over $15,000,000 a year. This is equivalent to over 40 cents an acre, or over $250 a square mile, for an the territory in England and Wales. If the same amount was levied by the United States in proportion to area, ex cluding Alaska and our new posses sions, it would amount to about $77,- 300.000. . . Among the many great advantages of these good roads in France and Eng land is one that has not Been mention ed in any discussion of the road ques tion. A French farmer rarely carries nis produce to market when he can work In the 'field. The time selected for doing this work Is bad rainy days or very cold days, when no work can be done on the farm. At such a time the little covered wagon is filled with nmriiuw. The farmer is able to draw three or four times as much to market as a farmer can In Iowa or xennesaee. t w heen estimated that It requires ten days' hauling on an average for each farmer in the United States to .rr hts nroduce to market The twelfth census reported 5,739,756 farms In th- United States, tne bubok t persons over ten years of age engaged In agriculture at 10,438,219. On the supposition thst it takes ten days a year to deliver the produce of each i m.rkPt it will be seen that in the aggregate there are over 5T,000,000 days consumed in aeuvenujt u ace of th farm to the railroad or to market If this work is all done at a m. whn other work can be done on the farm and when the teams snd men t,.iM ha hiT st other work it will cost $114,000,000 annually to deliver the crops to market, allowing a for man and team. , But this 1 not alL Th lncT tonnage that msy be drawn over good road with the-same team a compar ed th th tonnage carried over bad roads will shorten the time now re Vj, h work and wUl make an- h-r mat saving. v Bo It may b set . fa that irood roads will immn sum la delivering i market There are many Important benefit that need only be Zoned here-for toUneeMT. tog th wear snd tear of wagons, th injury to teams, tb losses of Urn V tag t and returning ommJVi nUcet, pleasure each on experience gover-- WHO DflU onn, uw - . .. .

A Oaod Roada Traia Tear Thirty foar States. Under the management of the Na tional Good Roads association another good roads train left St. Louis recent ly, and after several stops In Missouri points In Kansas. Indian Territory, Oklahoma and Texas will be visited, and then, operating over other lines, the train will make a tour of other states. Before the tour ends thirty four states will be visited. The last good roads special train was run over the Frisco railway last fail and made twenty-eight stops In less than two months and congregated 62,000 people. The present good roads special train will travel over 4,000 miles and con duct a crusade of political and eco nomic education for the farmer, show ing him how to organize his forces and secure feasible road legislation. Each locality where conventions are held will be expected to contribute to the expense of the undertaking, and after the proper enthusiasm has been arous ed a local good roads association will be formed and every member will be OOOD BOADS TBATJf AT HOLLA, Ma asked to sign a petition to bis repre sentative in the state general assembly in behalf of good roads legislation. The National Good Roads association now has an enrolled membership of over 300,000, and before the end of the present year this membership will bare been increased to more than 500,000. President Moore, In speaking of the work In the good roads campaign of 1905, says: "We shall have, beside ourselves, representatives of the United States government and distinguished engi neers. We shall appear before the leg islatures of the various states and try to impress upon them the gravity of the Issue. Ninety-five per cent of th farm products of the United States go over a farm road before they get to the railroad, the store or the fac tory, and yet we pay less attention to our roads than to anything else. Gen eral Miles spent $1,000,000 for good roads In Porto Rico, and we paid the bill and clapped our hands. . The gov ernment spent mere than $4,000,000 for good roads In the Philippines, and again we applauded and sometimes drove through swamps hub deep In mud to get the papers telling ns now well our possessions oversea were do ing. We spend $50,000,000 a year on the rural free dolivery and, nothing on the roads the carrier must have be fore he can deliver the mall. "Labette county, iff., spends $24,000 a year and has not a mile of good road. Other counties spend more than that and have not a mile of good road., So It goes all over the country. The re sult Is that In the great wheat belt and In the great cotton states the farmer cannot get his prodnce to market for about five months in the year." Doa'ti For Road BaUdara. Don't scatter the work over many sections of road. Don't leave borders of side gutters and road ditches with sides so abrupt that they will slide in to obstruct the water flow. Don't attempt to build road founda tion by covering op stones that ar not properly packed, broken and chinked. Don't use for surfacing gravel and stones mixed or cover up in th road bed unbroken stones. There I no place In road foundatipn or surfacing for unbroken stones, either single or In groups. They ar a nuisance and will make trouble. Don't delay your road work until too late for It to be thoroughly compacted and well finished. Don't build cheap, temporary (ton culverts. - Don't lay tile culvert in the soft ground. Don't delay sending your claim rly for settlement . , Don't expect your claim wIB b al lowed unless tb work shown cor responds to tbe spedflcstions and meets the requirement of this letter.

THE EGG IN HISTORY. It la Sarraaaded Mr atoar Aaeteat Laereada aa Battels. Like many another term Is Chris tian nomenclature, the word "Easter" Is derived from pagaa source. Tb Saxon goddes of light Estra, waa honored with an annual festival at th vernal equinox. The Jewish Passover wss also regulated by th March moon. and th resurrection of Jeso occurred at this season. In later centuries th great Christian festival cam to bear the pagan nam Easter and to be cele brated at a time coincident with the Jewish feast. ; ' Sine remotest times the egg has symbolised re-creeUoo. Persian tradi tion has It that the world was batched from an egg at the season which cor responds to tb vernal equinox, for which reason eggs are still given for New Tear's presents by th Persians. Tb druid said that tb sun, great egg, hatched from Itself tbe earth and other planets. By the Chinese tt Is believed that th world waa formed of two part of a great egg. From the yolk man .came form. He then waved hi hand, and the upper half of th shell went up ward and became the concave heavens; the lower half merseo, making th convex earth, and the whit albumen became tbe sees. When Chrlatlanlty took over various of tbe Saxon rite th Paschal egg of the Jewe were vested with a. new sig nificance namely, th resurrection of Christ They were colored red In mem ory of the blood shed for man' redemptions-Chicago New. , EAQLE8 IN REAL tfFE. hr tse Bees t Uy ae Beses Ateat,.

How much water doee a milk cow need daily 1 Tbe size and yield of th cow are tbe main thing that deter mine this. Tbe larger cow and the lar ger ylelder need more water than th. smaller cow and the smaller ylelder, ees J. L. Van Doren In New York Farmer, Ordinarily the small cow drinks from six to eight gallons of water In twenty-four hours, snd tbe large cow drinks from seven to nine gallons. There Is no fixed measure, as no two cows, sven of the same breed or of the aame weight or on tbe aame rations of tbe same feed and yielding practically tbe aame quantity of milk of the mm quality, will drink exactly the same quantity of water. , I have one amall cow that seems to be satisfied with five gallons of water day, while another one of ber weight take seven gallons. A neighbor has a largo Holsteln-Frleslan cow that drinks over ton gallons a day and an other quite as large that take only eight and a half gallons. My experience I that tb younger nrs requlr more water and that there la a decrease each year in the water taken aa the cow grows older. In some cssee even this does not bold good. A cow out of sorts will drink more or lees aa she Is chilly or fever ish. Indigestion, pasturage, changes In ra tion, Irregularity In feeding and milk ing and the amount of exercise are fac tors thst Influence the drinking of the milk cow. The charseter of the food much Influence. Dry food call for more water. Succulent food car ries Its own wator largely. The cow aa pasture needs less and drink less water than the cow on dry feed. In providing a supply of wator for a hard it I well to furnish the wator and let tb cow measure their drink for themselves. Then they will get the. proper amount at tbe proper time. Banning water and individual drinking vessels la tb stalls will solve tb prob lem of water aad drinking perfectly.
