ROAD REPAIRING.Some Points on Putting a -Highway

In Good Condition.Holes and ruts should never be filled

with stone, brick or coarse gravel, saysa writer in Good Roads Magazine. Thehard material will not wear uniformlywith the rest of the road, but will pro-duce bumps and ridges and usually re-sult in making two holes, each largerthan the original. Any saucerlike de-pressions or ruts should be filled.withearth like that of the roadbed.

It is a bad practice to cut a gutterfrom a hole to drain it to the side ofthe road. Filling it is the proper course,whether the hole Is dry or containsmud. The holes most requiring atten-tion are found at the end of bridgesand along the sides of small woodenbox culverts.The side ditches should be examined

in the fall to see that they are freefrom dead weeds. and grass, and latein the winter they should be examinedagain to see that they are not cloggedwith cornstalks, brush, etc., washed infrom the fields. The mouths of cul-verts should also be cleared of rub-bish and the outlet of tile drainsshould be opened. Attention to sideditches prevents overflow and washingof the roadbed and will also preventformation of ponds at the roadside andthe consequent saturation of the road-bed.Roads should have plenty of light

and air. Of course a shady road is verynice on a hot day, but such a road can-

not be kept in good condition, sinceshade is nearly sure tc :-ause mud-holes. Therefore the road officialsshould use all possible diplomacy tohave trees adjoining the road, particu-larly.those on the south side, trimmedwith reference to the needs of theroads.

AMERICAN ROADS.Uncle Sam's Canals and His Poor

Highways.We are appropriating millions of

money for building canals and rail-roads, yet 95 per cent of all the mate-rial that passes over our canals andrailroads must in the first instancepass over primary roads-namely, the

highways, says E. A. Bond, New Yorkstate engineer. In connection with our

canals we are doing an immense work.We are still appropriating money andmaking them efficient. Our railroadcorporations are expending huge for-tunes in reducing grades and makingtheir roads straight and smooth.Steamboat companies are expendinggreat sums in enlarging the capacityof their ships and increasing theirspeed.What does all r +his avail if we who

are to be the wsst benefited do notundertake some sensible system on a

business basis for building and main-taining in a wise manner the common

roads of the country?When this has been done, and when

that good time comes (and it is as sure

to come as tomorrow's sun is to rise),then will our boys be willing to stay on

the farm and our daughters be willingto become farmers' wives. The isola-tion of farm life will then have passedaway and Instead of our boys andgirls leaving the farm to go Into thecrowded cities more will be willing togo from cities to the farms. Then wewill have free mail delivery and thetelephone, and we will be the happyand contented people that the Al-mighty intended we should be when hegave us this rich and beautiful herit-age. ________

The Naming of Roads.The naming of the roads, says theGrand Rapids Herald, is somethingthat should have been attended to longago. Every main road and every cross-road in the county ought to have itsolicial title, just as do the streets andavenues In the city. The roads are alllaid out on the map, but they are un-named, and to attempt to address afarmer at his home residence exceptperhaps in the most general way is im-possible, The board of supervisorsmight well appoint a committee or com-mission to name the roads In the coun-ty, and in selecting names it would bewell to honor the sturdy pioneers whosettled In the neighborhood throughwhich the road passes. With the roadsnamed a farmer could be as easily ad-dressed by his- street and number ascan those who dwell in cities.

Good Roads In the Philippines.If General Bell continues the goodwork he has begun, the Filipinos willsoon have better roads than are usualin this country. During the past yearunder his direction fifty miles of mac-adamized road in one straight stretchhave been constructed, connecting OA-lanbas and Batangas, at a cost ofabot $2,250 per mile in our money.The farms within a mile of this roadhave doubled In value since Its con-struction.

GAVE UP DER POSITION.

Rather Than Make Up Booker T. Wash- aIngton's Bed at an Indlanapois a

Bichest Mai in the World.

Thelfortune of an extremely richman is alway~ an interesting sub-ject of speculation, when if comesto considering the fortune of therichest man in the world, every-body is interested in it, probablymore in a spirit of curiosity thananything else. It is usually thecase that when a fortune passed$1,000,000 it is apt to be magnifiedin the p.ublic mind. One milliondollars is a sum so enormous thatit is difficult for the average mindto grasp its sigifificance, hence,generally speaking, ten millionsexpressed in figures are no more

impressive than one million. Thatis why. so many nillioiiaire?, afterdeath, are fonnd to have left es-

tates smaller than they were cred-ited with possessing during life.

It is probable that, in like man.ner, the wealth of John D. Rocke-feller has been estimated at toohigh a figure; still, the fact re-

mains that by calculating from thesize of the dividends he receivesfrom the corporations in which heis interested it is possible to arrive

at an approximately correct esti-mate of his fortune. A businessman closely associated with. Mr.Rockefeller and said to be in a po-sition to know, is quoted in theNew York correspondence of thePhiladelphia Press as asserting thatMr. Rockefeller is now by far therichest man in the world, worthmore than twice as nrer -a.

other American citizen. His Stand-ard Oil stock, at the market rates,is.worth $500A00,000, from whichalone for several years he has re-

ceived dividends of $40,000,000 peranium, or a little less than $1,000,-000 a week. Besides. this he aus

other sources of income that bringhim about $36,000,000 a year, so

that his total income from allsources is not less than $75,000,000a year, as it has been for severalyears, and there is no suggestionof a check to the enormous infbw.That is to say, Mr. Rockefeller's

income~for a single year is morethan the enormous fortune left byWilliam H. Vanderbilt to his sons.

In ten years Mr. Rockefeller'swealth will be nearly $1,000,000from his annnal income alone.

when I got to that part which said,"They come-they come-theGreek-the Greek!" I put on mar-

ial agony ar.d elevated my voiceadd shook the floor. I thought ofall this the other day when I readabout the strikers in Atlanta goingto Mr. Byrd's publishing houseand trying to seduce his non-unionprinters to leave him. His part-ner, Tom Lyon, showed fight andsed some css words and drovethem off, and they had him arrest-ed and the recorder fined him forlisturbing the public tranquility,>ut if I had been the recorder Iiould have excused Tom.This thing has come home to me

t last, for Mr. Byrd is printing aook for me and I cant get a -copy,ond am fighting mad about it.[he striking interlopers get all his>rmter~s away, but two or threeascals hung around the back doornd all that Tonm could do was towatch them and exclaim, "They~ome-they come-the Greek-theareek."

The first edition hastil been. sold and the second is inhe press and has been delayedmnd enfllated and barricaded andaralyzed by these contemptibletrikers, and if there ever was a jus-ifable excuse for using cuss wordsiman ought to be hired to stand

t the back door and cuss 'em byhe day as fast as they came. I've2o patience with these strikers and:oss with their leaders. One ofmy boys has just est'ablished a

elephone plant in Houston, Tex.,and had about forty girls employedt good wages, when suddenlysome interlopers came and madethem all strike and he hired othersto take their places and the inter-lopers went round-to all his pat-ons and tried to get up a boycott,but failed. The rich Mr. Hunt-ington is the chief owner and hetelegraphed my boy to whip thatfight regard less of expense and heas whipped it. Last year at Day-on, Ohio, a big nlearted rich manstablished a cash register plantnd had two hundred girls employ-d and he care] for them just likehey were his children and had>ath rooms on every floor and hot~nd cold water, and mirrors andoap and towels, so that they could1athe and clean up before theywent home and the girls were con-ented and happy, for all this waso part of the contract, but some
