It wiih the road that made Mis- aouri, aay» the World Today.

The Boone* and their companion* were the only white men in the territory west o f St. Charles. Th ey boiled the apring water in huge iron kettle», and the erode aalt which formed the reaidue they floated in hollow log* down the Miaaouri river to lie »old at the French village o f St. I,ouis. lieer had come to the aalt apring* to lick the aalt. Th e place in west ern pioneer »lang wa* a “ lick” and liecuuac the Boone» there manufac tured »alt the locality wa» named Boon'» Lick. The Boone» apelled their name indifferently with or without the final “ e.” Two year* later a «ettlemcnt o f Kngliah »peaking men and women wit* made near Boon's Lick, and shortly afterward the town o f Old Franklin, twelve miles distant, upon the Miaaouri river, was founded. Then arose the necessity for a high way between Old Fninklin and St. liiinis und St. Charles, the largo cit ies o f the new west, each with sev eral thousand inhabitant*. The Boon’» Lick road was the result. It was not much o f a road as roads go now. It was not macad amized or paved or graveled. In deed, it was little lietter in its early days tlian a mere “ trace” or hint of the road's direction. The two Boones, with surveying parties, ran n line that followed the ridge or watershed between the Missouri ju n l Mississippi rivers. The »mailer stream* » e r e forded. On the large river» were primitive ferryboats, hollow log canoe* locked together. There were no bridge*. Th e signposts were the blazea or mark» cut in the foreat trees along the roadway. The road machinery consisted of a ride, an ax and a grubbing hoe.

Madame said very well, she would try venison stew with noodles. “ W hy," said the tnan, “ you hate noodles.” “ I know," she sighed, “ but I would rather eat something I hate than to make that waiter hate me I expect to eat here again, often. Maybe he will wait on me. I can’t afford to make him hate me. But he would hate me if I should de cline venison stew with noodles. That is the way o f waiters. They always hate people who refuse dish es they recommend, and every chance they get they take revenge.” — New York Press. - OREGON Tree Pulling and Land Cleaing R E D M O N D , ORE.
