How One Kansas Community
Learned a Lesson.
THE EXPERIMENT A SUCCESS.
Government Expert Shewed What a
Composition of Sand and Gumbo
Would Do Whin Property Handled.
Many Bmtfitt Realized.
TntU recently the farmers aoutb of
Dodge City. Kan, were put to all aorta
of Inconvenience fretting to town with
their crop for tunrket In that aection
of Kord county la as good wheat land
probably as en be found In the state
The owners of these lands are tor the
most part Geriuaua, and their success
Id raising large crops was proverbial.
But they had one particular legitimate
complaint. That was the condition of
the road between their farms and
Dodge City.
For about two and one-half miles
the main county thoroughfare passed
through the saud bills. This sand
MM rood was about the worst to be
found In that section. There were
places In which the wheels sank Into
the sand halfway to the bubs, while
the remainder of the distance was
most difficult of passage. In the
places where tbe sand was deepest an
empty wagon drawn by two horses
bad bard work getting through. There
was only one time when this road was
in a fairly good coudltlon. and that
was directly after a bard rain. It
would then pack Itself bard. But this
good condition would last only day
or two, and as rains are Dot overfre
qucnt in this part of tbe state the sand
bills road was bad nearly the year
around. The citizens of Dodge City
realized that they were confronting a
serious problem, for many of the farm
ers were threatening to move away.
They appealed to Representative Ed
ward II. Madison, who became inter
ested, lie went to the good roads bu
reau of the department of agriculture
in Washington and asked that a roads
expert be sent to Ford county. The
request was iinnediately granted. V.
L. Spoon was sent to Dodge City.
After looking over tbe saud bills be
made this reassuring statement:
"Your people can have as good roads
as anywhere In the" country and with
as little espouse as anywhere. I'll
show you bow to build 1U0 yards of
good road through tbe worst sand, and
with that lessou you cau continue It"
In the low ulaces in tbe sand bills
Mr. Spoon found close to tbe proposed
road a gumbo-like soil which he mixed
with 73' per cent of sand. With this
mixture he constructed a road that
after a hard winter and almost con
stant travel is still like a race traek.
Tbe proposed road was first lined
center stakes and side stakes set at tbe
required distances. The roadbed sur
face was plowed, disorganizing every
part of it. The harrow was then used,
separating turf and grass from the
sand. Tbe grading aud leveling fol
lowed, making easy grades where re
quired. Tbe road plow was again
used, this time outside tbe stakes.
Three furrows were thrown to tbe
stakes, making a brace to bold tbe
clay in the roadbed. On top of the
clay bottom In the road trench were
spread sand and gumbo, care being
taken that do grass or roots were left
in it. Tbe mixture of sand and gum
bo was slanted so as to shed the wa
ter. Time bardeus tbe gumbo land
mixture.
This 100 yards of experiment waked
up tbe farmers and tbe city folk of
Dodge. Immediately two aud one-balf
miles additional road were coustruct
ed. For nine months the road bas
stood the test, and the farmers in oth
er parts of the county are building
similar roads.
"What benefit bas been derived from
this road Improvement?" was asked
W. J. Fitzgerald, lieutenant governor,
a large merchant In Dodge City.
"That's ' bard to answer," be said,
"because the bene6ts have been so
many and varied. The town people
have bad an increase in business, and
tbe farmers have made more on their
produce because of the ease in which
they get their stuff to market. But,
above all, the farms south of town,
whose owners bad to depend upon tbe
old road, have Increased in value 25
per cenf. This Is not an estimate, but
founded upon the transfers actually
made since the new road was built.
Our people, who a year ago were de
spondeDt and saw no remedy for the
bad road conditions, are now enthusi
astic good roads builders."
How to Avoid Making Ruts.
Serious damage soon results from
the common practice of driving In the
track made by preceding vehicles,
especially with heavy loads on narrow
tires. Ruts would scarcely, if ever, ap
pear on a well constructed road If
drivers would vary their track even
only a few inches. It would be no
ticed that, no matter how deep the
rut, It will disappear when a sharp
turn occurs as the horses vary their
course around a corner and traffic
spreads out over tbe full width of tbe
road. This Is one of the principal
causes of deterioration of a macadam
road and could easily be remedied with
a little care on the part of the drivers.
Bad Highway Building.
A road engineer puts It this way:
"There ought to be a law to stop fools
building highways. This Idea that tbe
outer edge of a highway sod, dirt and
atone, all should be thrown into the
center of the road ought to entitle the
people who do it to D'xiety days in
Jail."

CARE OF ROADS.
After Good Ones Are Constructed They
Should Be Cared For Regularly.
The good road era bas beguu Id
many stales, and already tbe steam
roller, the piles of crushed rock along
the roadside and the digging out of tbe
original roadway ant familiar sighta
In many of the eastern states. The
roads built are generally of approved
macadam construction, which, com-
am tutrfiVf atrtll of white lih-
'.--- I"... i
boo running through the green fields
and hills of the rural sections.
These roads are perfectly built and
as soon as completed the farmers aud
other raicwcrs couteutedly sit back
aud exclaim, 'Those roads are now
good for a generation or more with
out trouble." This la a serious error
and one being made lu many states.
That it Is an error Is borne out by tbe
dust cloud raised by a passing car
traveling at twenty miles per hour or
perhaps faster.
Many fall to realise that whenever
dust Is raised a road Is being destroy
ed. This Is particularly the case on i
smooth macadam surfaces, where them j
is nothing to bold tbe dust on the road
and where every cross wiud blows off
any loose material.
As soon as roads are built arrange
ments should be made to keep them
in repair. With roads it Is esseutially
"a stitch in time saves nine." Some
dust preveutive should be used Imme
diately macadam roads are completed
in order to prevent dust.
Oil tar and many special prepare- j
tions are now on tbe market, and the
1

I From Good Roads Magazine. New York.),
communities should be educated to
look upon these additions as a legit
imate part of the road maintenance.
California has its oiled roads over
which motoring is a pleasure to the
motorist and not a dust path to the
citizen who happens to be on tbe road
the same day or who bas tbe misfor
tune to reside aluug a well traveled
highway. I
Massachusetts bas proved that road
treatments are a success aud more ,
economical than continuous applica
tions of water, and in England dust
preventing Is always considered a part
of tbe road problem.
WOMEN BUILD ROADS.
Start Campaign For Better Highways
In Virginia, and Intereet Is Spreading,
Women of the country sections in :
many parts of tbe state of Virginia
have taken up the work of road build
ing, in Fairfax county as well as in
other counties this bas been reported.
Miss Edith Thompson of Fairfax :
couuly, a pretty young woman, accom- j
panied by her young sister and her t
mother, recently reported that they ,
bad built three miles of good roads '
single handed while their men worked '
on the farm. Other women in the
state, becoming interested in the cam
paign for better roads, are following
this example.
Oiling a Kansas Road. '
Some time ago a mile of country
road south of Sedan, Kan., was oiled
under tbe direction of the Sedun Com
mercial club. Fifty dollars was paid
for this, aDd It was all raised by pub
lic subscription. Tbe oil bad to be
hauled so far that the cost of hauling
was almost equal to tbe price of tbe
oil. Nevertheless the total cost of
dragging the road and of soaking it in
oil was only $50.
The road was oiled In May and Is
yet in almost as good condition as It
was when finished, it is well round
ed up, with good drainage, nud the oil
bas made It solid, something like as
phalt pavement. The road is the talk
of the farmers. They will go a mile
or two out of their way Just to use it
in driving into Sedan.
Tribute to Road Drag's Value.
Walter Shoemaker, rural free deliv
ery carrier In Drumore, Lancaster
county. Pa., wrote to the Lancaster
(Pa.) Automobile club about the split
log road drag as follows:
"I drive on a piece of road on which
tbe drag has been used, and 1 can see
that It Is the best road I have on my
entire mall route. I tbluk the split
log drag Is Just the thing to make
good roads. Rural free delivery car
riers want good roads Just as well as
the farmers want good roads and Just
as well as tbe automobile men want
good roads, and we want to help the
farmers all we can."
Add to the Value of Land.
Good roads add value to every acre.
They practically bring the country
and city together, so that the present
crowded, unwholesome conditions may
be avoided, and change the dreary
j country life by easy visits to the city.

A LINCOLN YARN.
Why Att Like.icd Himself to the Boy
Without Gingerbread.
A (-roup Lincoln's ironies were In
hi law ot.uv once KWuppliiK ex'rl
eii' es, spliiiitii yarns and comparing
notes on lite as tliey found It. They
drift, tl t tlie sulijevt of romance and
sentiment In lire, and the talk at last
veutcrvit on the bliss of kvemaking,
if courting" gills and feeling that
run made them full in love with you
by your suiH-rlor t harms. Finally
tome one of the party asked Lincoln
for bis persoual view s on the subject
A!h straightened out his lank and
ungainly frame, and a u.utzilcat smile
stole across his exceedingly homely
face.
"Vloiitlonwn," be drawled, "I reckon
I ain't fullyqualincd to discuss that
point with any great authority, lu
fact, gentlemen. It reminds me of the
story of the poor little couulry boy
who saw another aud more fortunate
boy eating a big piece of gingerbread,
lie begged and pleaded with the other
boy for at least one bite of the giuger
brettd. but all iu raiu. nud at last was
found sitting alone on a dry goods
box. following the departure of the
other boy aud the gingerbread, weep
ing bitterly.
" 'What's the matter, sonnyf asked
the niau who found him.
"TbereuKin the crying boy told of
bis melancholy experience lu so vain
ly begging for Just oue bite of tbe
other boy's gingerbread.
"l rerkou i like gingerbread bet
ter'n any other boy in all the world,"
be sob tied In conclusion, aud It cer
tainly do seem to me that I get less of
It than any other boy In all the world.'
"That, gentlemen," said Abe Lincoln,
"is about my position on this question
of the Joys of courting a girl aud feel
ing that you're so charming she Just
can't resist you. I love It better'n
any of yon, 1 reckon, aud 1 get less
of it"

Tact means th'j.!'.? about others.
It means considering wtiii others will
think Instead of considering only what
we tbluk ourselves, it means acting
in concert with others instead of act

unselfishness In action, and that Is why
It gains so much and wins so many
hearts.
A Fair Offer.
llow earnest some pf tha cheap New
York gamblers can become was shown
by a story told the other night by a
New York politician, who. in compa

bout in oue of the local boxing clubs.
It appears that one of the cheap
gamblers, who also dabbles In tbe

the train in Jersey City and tried to
stir up some betting enthusiasm by
confidentially telliug members of the
party that the "Kid" would win the
fight. Wheu he approached the poli
tician who told tbe story the latter
cast doubt on the "Kid's" fistic ability
upon that particular occasion.
"Why, the 'Kid' is sure to lick that
other guy. I'll bet you a gold watch
he does," confidently asserted the gam
bler. Tbe politician remained skeptical,
and tbe gambler-pickpocket exclaimed:
"Look here. I'll bet you a gold watch
the best one. on this train that the
'Kid' wins, aud you can come through
the cars with me now aud pick out
the watch."
Stories of Charles Lamb.
An old lady who was fond of her dis

by tbe length 'of her praises. "I speak
because I know him well." said she.
"Well. 1 don't-I don't. But d-n him

On auother occasion Lamb was in

crowded with children. Their noise

The Middle Splash.
"Joe Jnlwon, a very Ignorant and
pigheaded rhai. presented himself at
an English Tillage church with bis In

clergyman. "The following dialogue
then took 'place between Jobson and
tbe minister:
" "What name do you glTe this cblldT
" 'Peter Annuins Jobson.'
"'Auanlas! 1 refuse to christen the
child In that name. Do you know who
Ananias was?'
" 'I don't know who he was, and,
what's more, I don't care.'
" "Pnt Ananias was the greatest liar
In all Biblical history.'
" 'Well, that's nothing to me. My
baby ain't no liar, so what's the differ

because I like the sound of It."
"'1 won't do It. I will christen tbe

"And the minister was as good as bis

he sprinkled a little water on the In

" 'And I rub out that middle splash,'

When Mark Twain Biographed 8atan.
Mark Twain confesses In "Is Shake
speare Dead?" that he was once verj
much interested in Sutan. He argued
the whole proposition pretty ably .with
his Sunday school teacher, who finally
suggested thut little Samuel Clemens
should write Satan's biography. The
Idea and the scenario that accompa
nied it were a great shock to that
young Sunday school teacher. Ue told
(he sportive questioner that no one
who ventured to mock ot the real bi
ographers of Satan could ever hope to
enter afterward any respectable bouse.
"How true," says Mark Twain, "were
his words, and bow wise! How for
tunate It -would have been for me If
I had heeded them! But I was young
-I was but seven years of age and
vain, foolish and anxious to attract
attention. I wrote the biography and
have never been In a respectable bouse
since."
