How to Prepare Red=BE'
In a recent arti'1 on 'Things to Be
Remeailtd in Building Good
noads," W. E. Barnes pertinently
says that "too many people seem to
think that anything that is to be cov
ered up does not need attention-that
is, done simply becanze tcme 'enineer
has said that i= thoula be so. The
autho'ities seem to doubt whether it
pays to put so much mone.y out of
sight. What they want iS to spread
out the money S3 it will all be in sight
of th eir tonstituents, so that when the
'day of re-election comes they can
point to a great deal apparently done
with little n'oney." This is doubtless
one reason why it is so difficult to get
roads properly drained.
He then goes on to consider what
preprrations are necessary foi' pert
maneut country toads beforb they re
'ceire the t.toie or other material, and
bffers the following suggestions:
"The first thing to be done is to
employ some competent man to run
levels over the entire length of the
road intended for improvement, and
taking levels at the sides frequently
'enough to find drainage at every
available place along the line of the
proposed road. Then a careftllf
drawn profile should be made; after
which the grade liue 'of the road
should be carefully studied and drawn
on the prdfile. If the ground will ad
init of it without too much expense,
long stretches of the same rate of
grade should be avoided, as it is too
hard on the muscles of the draft ani
mals when hauling a heavy load. as it
admits of a constant and severe strain
on them, as can b'! easily seen by the
trembling of the muscles After a pull
ever these grades. A frequent change
in the grades allows some rest on the
various parts of the muscles.
"Complete specifications should be
written, telling in a general, as well
as a special, way what is to be done
and how to do it. These specifications
should be accompanied by any de
tailed drawing that may be necessary,
such as a plan and cross section, etc.,

competent, experienced and practical
civil engineer, and not by some pre

"In excavating for the road-bed
care shluld be exercise.1 not to plough
too deep er t, one side of the outer

tLessn' From Experience.
In a recent article Professor WK R.
Hoag makes a comparisola of the
needs of railways and highways. The;
points which they have in common are
discussed, and t-h:e fact is brought ont
that "each ihas. or should ha'e~ a
roadway which will contribut3 most
to the safety and economy of its busi
ness." He sums up the matter in six
points, showing what system the rail-j
ways employ, as follows:

The population of the islands is e'
timated at from eight to ten millions.
Excluding foreigners for the moment,
we find the natives divided into some.
thing like two huidred tribes, cl
- with its p4ciliar dialect tund Cistoms.
With the single exceptioin of the Ne
gritos, these tribes are of Malay ex
traction. The Negritos are a race o1
dwarfish blacks, confined at present tc
a few of the loftiest i:ountain ranges.
They are commonly believed to be the
aborigines of the islands. They are
a puny, sickly race, and are rapid.
ly becoming extinct.
The tribes of Mtalay origin vary in
their development froni a state of ab
soliite savagery to civilization.
Extreme poverty is the rule among
the divilized natives, and its cause is
sound ii the heavy burden of taxation
imposed upon them by .their Spanish
masters: Every person over eighteen
years of age is required to procure
annually a credula personal, or docu
ment of identification, the charge fu
which varies from $1.50 to S25, ac
cording to the means of the applicant.
Should these sums seem iiisiguificant
it must be remembered that the aver
age native has little or no opportuiity
to work for hire; that if .e does suc
ceed in securing employment his wages
are often not more than five cents per
day and that he is usually unable to
dispose of his far"i pro<hict' for cash,
being ciompelled to' exbhige tnem for
othei~ bonimnodities. In additiou to
this persodzal-tax. there is a tax oa c> -
toanut trees; d tax on beasts of bur

a tax for keepiug a shop, a tax ou
~iills'oil presses, i tax on weights
ard niedsures; s tai ofi cock tighting,
Kha sdi ori to 'The end of 'the chapter.
At every turn the 'poor native linds
himself face to -face with the dire nie
cessity of paying tributo; and he fre
quently spends hie life ifi an ineffect
ual effort to meet' the obligations thus
imposed.
Delinquent taxpayers are' treated
with the utmost' severity. The first
step is usually to strip them to the
waist, tie them to a bench or post, and
beat them unmercifully. Women are
subjected to, this treatments Should
none of these methods prove effective
deportation follows, with confiscation
of property and the leaving of women
and children to shift for themselves.
I once saw forty-four men deported
from Siquijor because they owed taxes
varying in amount from two to forty
dollars. I was infornied that they
would be allowed to return to
theii families, -if they 'could find
them, after working out the amount
of their several debt.s. The wages
allowed them were to be six cents 'per
day. Board was tobe furnished the~m
at a cost of five cents per day, and
they were to clothe- and shelter them
selves! In other words, their sen
tence amounted to deportation

The practice of the economies in th
fruit-raising sections of the West ha
developed a new article of exnert. Un
til recently the orchard owners and th
evaporator managers did not think o
utilizing the cores and the parings o
apples. They occasionally sold them t
the jelly-makers or fed them to th
hogs, but more generally allowed then
to accumulate as refuse in great heaps
which slowly fermented and decayed
This year, in many places, the paring
and the cores are being saved. The,
are spread out In the hot sun and dried
aftei' which they are packed in largi
sacks and bld for iiyers, who gathe
them up and send aivay in car lott

and cores in these large qluantities 1:

of t'he orchards ot the Missotyl valle;
