for it will Hot be site to keep such

The followiug excellent method for

by the Virginia llxperiiuout Station:

be distinguished by their red roots
As soou as the plant has fruited tin
erowu aud roots take ou a daik color
It is not advisable to select many va
rieties. For a family garden two lirsi
eurlies, two medium and two late va
rieties are suilieient, and one of cud:

However, it is necessary to avoid so
lectiug varieties w ith imperfect bios
sonis. Due row of plants with per
feet tlowers will readily poliiuuc twi
or three rows on either side.
It is best to set strawberries iu tlx

Having given the plants good cul

plants, moisture is retained and the
berries kept clean by the mulch. The
mulch must be applied carefully, for

GOOD ROADS NOTE
Ihe MuLfj VhIup of Uouil Kods.
J 1 JHF. report of tho Maryland
I (ieologieal Survey for lH'.l'J
I auuouuees that the people of
6 that State huvo expended ovijr
$6,000,000 iu the last ten years ou their
common roads; most of the money has
been wasted iu continual repairing.
Many of the roads have uo natural
draiuuge. They are bad roads a part
or all of the time. The Survey has
made a careful estimate showing that
it costs tho people of Maryland $:(,-
diio.ooo a year more to do their haul
ing over poor highways than it would
cost if they were turned into lirst-rate
muds.
This estimate supplements the in
formation collected by the llepartmeiit
in Agriculture iu )vC, when it re
ceived data from over twelve liuudred
counties from all over the country aud
fouud that the average cost of hauling
a tou loud one mile was twenty-five
cents, while the average cost iu sii
Ftiropean countries that possess im
proved highways was almost exactly
one third as muc'ii. More than oue
factor enters into the cost of hauling,
but the mam reason why our farmers
tiuy three times as much per mile as
ICuropeau farmers pay is that they can
ianl, in uu average, only one tou over
,ioor dirt roads, while the Furopeuu
fanner hauls from three to four tons
it a load over line highways.
No one knows the total mileage o!J
our common roads, but their leugth in.
rNew York Slate is estimated at IT',J
Odd miles. The nmre important higli-j
way? of Massachusetts have a mileage
of JO.oOil miles. All "tiidents of high
way improvement agree that the co;-
diti.ui of most of the common roads in.
America is about that of the Luglisli
Toa ls, eurly i i this century, wheni
Ihey were so bad and toll rates so higii
that the question of improvement wa
forced upon the iiritish public, l'.ng
laud had uo railroads then, and if it
had not been for the wonderful de
velopment of our railroads the ques-'
tiou of highway improvement would
have come to the front lonur ago iu this
country. The people, however, are '
more and mole i .uprcssed every year
with the fact t'.u' road improvement ;

Fight on for wealth, old "Money Bags,"
your liver is drying up and bowels wear
ing out, some day you will cry aloud for
health, offering all your wealth, but you
will not get it because you neglected Nature
in your mad rush to get gold. No matter
what you do, or what ails you, to-day is
the day every day is the day to keep
watch of Nature's wants and help your
bowels act regularly CASCAREtS will
help Nature help you. Neglect means bile
in the blood, foul breath, and awful pains
in the back of the head with a loathing
and bad feeling for all that is good in life.
Don't cdre how rich or poor you are, you
can't bo well if you have bowel trouble,
yo . -ill be regular if you take CASCARETS-
get them tcxlay- CASCARETS
in metal box; cost JO cents; take one, eat
it like candy and it will vork gently while
you sleep. It cures; that means it strength
