He and another man came over tho old abandoned wagon road, which he says is the worst piece of a road it has ever been his misfortune to travel. They overtook an emigrant tein coming this way. The family had been out fiom Crescent City a long time, and still a very bad part of the road was yet before them. At a number of places they h id to take the wagon apart and carry it in pieces over steep precipices. It to.ok them tour days to make as many miles. At another point the family worked a vvholu day to res Jtpie ajijold dilapidated bridge over a stream with perpendicular banks. Mr. Bloom proposes to write up his exper ience from Crescent City to Waldo and at Waldo for his paper, the Call. Cement Pipe. Ell wood Smith & Co., are now in Jacksonville making cement pipe for conducting the water to any part of your premises. Tho mixed liquid sand and cement is shov elled in a funnel like machine, which is sues forth at tho bottom of the ma chine like a huge hollow sausage. Any length of pipe can thus be made, de pending upon the amount of cement mortar that may bo wished to be work ed up. The pipe will harden in one day, after which it will be impervious to water. The wheels of a loaded wagon havo been known to pass over this pipe without crushing it. A num ber of our citizens are introducing this pipe on their premises for irrigating and drainage purposes.

What will be done with Guiteau? What good smoking cigarettes do? What benefit drinking whiskey does? What kind of shoes do the angels wear? Why so few of our farmers beautify their residences?

Where you can find a handsomer set of records than those Kept ky Allie Klippel? W.hy the road overseers do not cut down the dagger cockle burs as requir ed bv law?
