Several weeka u^n the ?]t partnif iit of agriculture bc^au itn first tJtpcrnueut in roadbuildiug ut Is'iw Brunswick, N. J., under tbu direction of E. B. Harrison, spccial agent of iho office of load inquiry. The model road taiu? considered it tho first of several which the government is to baild at the various experiment stations throughout the country. The government furnishes a rock crusher, screen, engine to drive steam roller, spreading wagon and road grading machine and two. skilled operators. Tho city fumiahee the material, carta and laborers. The road will be of macadam pattern. An inferior grade of traprock is found In abundance near New Brunswick and this is being used in the substructure of the read. The superstructure ia obtained from tbe traprock deposits in tbe neighborhood of Plainfield and the Oranges. Tho model pavement will have a depth of about nino inches and the foundation be made of small, wedge shaped, broken stones of as nearly tbe same dimensions as possible. Tbe roadbed will be prepared by thoroughly rolling with ft steam roller weighing about ten tons. Every hole will be carefully filled with the same material that composes the rest of tbe roadbed, and tbe finished cross section will be formed by two in flrt fn *t fmm thtt g*.auca ui uuu tw? m w ides, uniting at the center, with the apex slightly rounded. Four inches of crushed atone will be opreod on the carefully prepared roadbed to form tbe foundation of tbe substructure. Tbe largest of these stones will be crushed ao fine as to bo able to easily pa*s through a two inch ring, and tho email* eat will be about half an inch in diameter. This foundation will then be sprinkled, makiug .he stone as wet as possible without softening tbe roadbed, and the roller passed over it a few timea until the atooe is only slightly disturbed by tbe teams returning with tbe empty carta. Tbe first foundation is not made deeper tban four inchea, bccause it baa been found tbat a greater thickness causes tbe stones to "elbow" together, wearing off their sharp corners, making the "bonding;" which is tbe great desideratum, a very slow process, if not aa impossibility. When tbe first foundation has been thoroughly sprinkled, a second coat of inrilar stone three inches in thickness will be applied. After tbe stoiio bus been well" bonded" to this extent it will gain be sprinkled, and while very wet ft thin coating of traprock screenings wil' be most carefully spread over tbe surface, just thick enough to fill the email spaces between tbe stones. Tbe size of tbe stones of this last applica* tion, which is called in the parlanco of roadbuilding tbe "binder," will be from balf an inch in dinmeter to tbe finest dust. When tbe work has reached this stage, it will be left untouched in the dry state as long as practicable to harden and bind. The application of water and tho passage of vehicles will be prevented as long as practicable. As the work progresses Mr. E. B. Harrison, who is directing the work for the department of agriculture, will deliver lectures explaining the process of laying the road. Rutgers college students in the agricultural department and farmers will be invited to attend the lectures and witness the work. General Grant Favored Good Roads. Nearly 20 years ago General Grant, in enumeratiug necetaary lines of pnblio improvements, named the publio schools and highwnys. Once, when he and General Sheridan were in a reminiscout mood, the old commander said to "Little Phil," speaking of tlielatter's fnmnm ride to the battle of Cedar Creek: "Sheridan, if that battle had taken place alter a prolonged rain and there bad not been a good pike from Winchester, you would never have been promoted to the head of the United States army. You would not have reached the battlefield to cheer your men, and there would have been a great defeat for the Union forces instead of a great victory. That would have left Meade and Thomas a long distance ahead of you in the line of promotion." ?New York Tribune. Keep the Boad Dry. F. A. Dunham, who has been prominently identified with the farfamed system of modern highways of New Jersey, at a meeting of the Connecticut Valley Higbwuy association, stated that poor material well put together can be made to produce better results than first class material carelessly put together. Nothing is more fatal to durability than the drainage of the roadbed, and more particularly the subdrainage, which is often neglected. A macadam road cannot bo left to itself after a completion, but needs constant supervision. Both Hard and Eaajr. Good roads are ubout the easiest thing in tho world to make, once undertaken, bat a boat the hardest tiling there la to get officials to take hold of.?Parkersburg (W. Va.) Sentinel. WbHl Tracks. According to tho statement of the president of the .Missouri Good Roads association, the people of that state spent $490,000 daring 1896 for road improvement, while it cost them jost $600,000 for roads supervisors. In other words, it cost tho state $1,090,000 daring the year for $490,000 worth of road improvement. In France there are i4,000 miles of j first class roads built by the government, and about an equal number of ! miles have been built by the different! deportments, as well as thousands of miles built by smaller divibious.

Then he dug out the center of a nicely baked loaf of cake and was found in the middle of the dining room table with the ugar bowl between his legs and most of the contents in his stomach. He has already cost $100 in doctor'* bills, and I feel that I am right in attributing my few gray hairs to the misery I endured walking the floor with him at night during the first year of his life. *"? abup iIaha #a nav mo fnp ITUttl MC V,VI MWM*- w r-/ ?v that?

If yoa consult the usually accepted authorities on the speed of birds in their flight, you are likely to be misled by an exaggeration of from 100 to 300 per cent. This is because figures hare been gireo ? i ? and verv annerfi OH UCUIIUIJ, l)f|Kaiuu? ___ , cial observation. Bat recently American, English and French observers hare been comparing notes and are practically greed, after most careful calculation, on the speed of the best known birds. They started with the carrier pigeon and hare made him a base of comparison. He baa heretofore been credited with 110 miles an hour, bat it is now agreed that be is entitled to 50. A quite recent loug distance, curefully conducted test of KTJ miles, from the Shetland islands to London, showed that the most rapid pigeons made 37 miles an hour. On shortei- distances none made mora than 50 miles. Because frigate birds bare been seen far from land and hare been supposed not to fly by night or to rest on the water they hare been credited with a speed of from 150 to 200 miles an hour. If they did fly at that speed, they would hare to overcome an atmospheric pressure of from 112 to 130 pounds to the square foot of flying surface. There is no certainty that they fly more rapidly than a passenger pigeon or that they do not fly at night or do not sleep on the water. The swallow, that is indeed a rapid flier, ban been credited with ISO miles an hour, but ho must be cut down to 05 miles, and the marten is five miles behind him, though authorities have placed him ten riles ahead. The teal duck la brought down from 140 to SO miles an hour. The mallard is five miles slower and flies the same as the canvasback, while both of these are five miles on hour ahead of the wild goose and eider duck. The pheasant makes 38 miles an hour, which is three miles ahead of the prsiris chicken and quail, though the latter appedrs to fly much faster on account of his temporary burst of ipeed that seldom exceeds 200 fevt. The crow flies 25 miles an hour. Small birds appear to fly more rapidly than the largo ones snd have deceived many observers. The bumming bird does .not fly as fast as many awkward appearing. very much larger, slow flopping birds.?Chicago Times-Herald. ?????? % A Proud Father. * nf tli?
