by the incb.
t. n. Vaa Kttm. PuBLISHIB,
Under the new road law enlarging
thn Dowera of road supervisor and
the requirement of a cash tax, then
Is no reason why, If proper official-
are eleoted, the county should not
have good roads, or at least great
improvement in them. Money Jndi-
oiously Bent and work intelligently
done mi show benefloial results
The practice of patohlng roads or
ranking the repairs in a temporary
way is not profitable, because not
Iiciii.Hiient . Whatever is done should
bo we'll and substantially finished.
One great uWrlmeiit to making roads
good is allowing water to stand on,
ami c.n hills allowing it to run down
over the road. Water must be kepi
out of the road or the work will not
be permanent. On the level, or
where Dearly so, roadsshooldba well
roandtd and on grades or bill good
tide d'.tcht a must be provided, and in
the end tile or cement drain plpef
are most economical where water Is
to be carried across a road.
This Is a kind of between hay and
grass period for newspapers. Nut
much news, cold weat her keeps foils
from traveling and the editor has a
scratching time.
If people in the county would fur
nlsb items relating to their neighbor
hood, births, deaths and marriages,
and home happenings they wonld be
greatly enjoyed. There is no bettei
school for young people than putting
on paper news items. It gives them
r manner of writing, develops ingen
ulty in forming sentences and niaket
them exact in thinking. We would
welcome correspondence from any
sooroe, which is reliable and would
be pleased to have a number from
different parts of the county on our
list. We invite boys and girls to so
cept the offer.
Prof. H & Graves who is well
known here, and recently visited in

is a moot excellent appointment. No
other man in the country could have
been selected who Is more competent
both by experience and ability to fill
tbe position. Mr, Pinchot had high
Ideals in carrying out bis work and

Torpedo Governed from Shore.
A submerged, torpedo propelled i
controlled by .wireless electri'
transmitted by. the wireless met.
Is the work of Carl Abrnhanirnn
fir i Diego, Cal. The fnventlon ft-
Tie. The propelling force Is man'
'ated on the same principle as
wireless telegraph. Electricity
transmitted from aerial wires o
shore to aerials supported bv v
floats and connected with the t'-'o c
ler wheel of the torpedo, which is sub
merged. A current powerful enough
o pend a sixteen-foot torpedo through
'v9 water at a speed of thirty-two
1 - ilea an hour . can be transmitted.
Control of the device is secured by
":apnets set on each side of the pro
. filed and connected with the steer-
ng gear. These magnets are of dlf-'-rent
degrees of sensitiveness and
ne susceptible to varying degrees of
Mf.ver in electric currents. The steer-
- is thus made possible by a varla-
.'on in tbe amount of power sent to

Bide by side grow the soap tree and
the tallow tree. The soap tree yields
a product from which is manufactur
ed tbe purest article of soap that Is
pouslble to be made. Indeed, the pulp
of the berry Is a natural soap and
will make a lather almost like the
manufactured article. The soap ber
ry tree is now creating widespread In
terest, and the berries are being Im
ported from Algiers and China.
It will pay to plant the trees and
'nok after their cultivation. The pro
'net of the tallow tree also enters
nto the making of soap, and the two
ogether make - a nice combination,
r.d their cultivation should be looked
ft it by those in new industries, ha

cry line oil, and when the virtue
f the tallow tree are fully known It
nay also yield a fine and protltable

Flowers Without Foliage.
One of tbe most extraordinary flow

which reverses the order of nature by
blooming In midsummer without any

This extaordinary plant has fra

naturalist witnessed Its operations co

He saw a cassowary come down to
the water's edge and stand for so.ne
minutes apparently watching the wa
ter carefully. It then stepped Into the
liver where It was about three feet
deep, and partially squatting down,
spread Its wings out, submerging
them, the feathers being spread and
ruffled.
The bird remained motionless, and
kept its eyes closed as If In sleep. It
remained In this position for a qunr

Its wings and straightening its fe utt

It shook Itself several times, wae e
upon a quantity of small flshet fe,l

feathers. These the bird loomed ute

The fishes had evidently mit-'rca
