Address All Communications to COOS BAY DAILY TIMES Marshfleld Oregon NEW PROBLEM OP GOOD ROADS. The Office of Public Roads of the United States Department of Agri culture has recently been conducting a series of experiments to learn the extent of the damage done to the rock-surface thoroughfares by auto mobiles. The results prove that the modern fast moving motor car is the greatest menace to macadam roads that has ever made Its appearance. On some stretches of thoroughfare, especially in New England, where many broad and smooth roads have been constructed, the retrogression is not less than 4 0 per cent. If some plan is not speedily devised for over coming the bad effects of motor wear the money loss will be stupendous and the good work of many years will go for naught. Not only in America does this con dition prevail. The men of England, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium and other countries of the old world there hard-surfaced highways are ap preciated have also learned that the big, soft rubber tires of the auto mobile are doing almost incredible harm. France has officially taken cognizance of the condition and has called an International Congress to meet at Paris, October 11, to discuss plans for saving the roads. To many It may seem beyond be lief that a pneumatic rubber tire can work any injury to a road composed of bits of crushed flint rock; but this becomes plain when the theory of such roads is explained. The maca dam road, named after John Louden Macadam of Ayr, Scotland, who was for years highway surveyor of Bris tol, was first laid down by the emi nent French road engineer, Tresau- get of Limoges, who wisely foresaw that slowly-moving iron-tired wagons would crush dust particles from the stones of the road's sur faco; that those particles would be constantly sifted between the inter stices of the largo stones, that every passing wagon would crush them firmer Into all ruts and Inequalities; that rains would aid, and tho ulti mate result would be a smooth sur face, water-shedding highway. Thesauget planned wisely; Mac Adam came two decades lator, made a slight chango In the laying of the road foundation and gave to such thoroughfares his name. For a cen tury and a quarter the wisdom of tho road engineers of Limoges and Ayr was Justified. Then arose a condi tion they had nover conceived of a rast-moving vehicle running on brond, soft tires. Tho roads began to suffer at once for the following reasons: The rubber tires, being soft, creates no rock dust itself as does tho iron tiro of a wagon, and tho vory life of these roads demands a constant supply of that material. It is tho surface binder that keeps tho road smooth and cracks filled In; that maintains the evenness and binds the rubblo stones into ono im pervious mass. Every iron-tired wheol does its own small quota of good by acting ns n rock-dust maker and a miniaturo road roller. Tho auto, whirring along at dizzy speed, simply flattens its tires against tho ground and tho trnctlvo forco so ex erted hurls tho precious rock dust into tho air, wlionco it Is swept to Iho adjacent farms and lawns In blinding clouds. So pronounced has been tho moro dust nuisance in many portions of tho country that real estato has decreased in valuo to an appreciable oxtont, and fanners com plain that tho ovof-lncreaslng dust on their flohls, vlues nnd trees makes It Impossible for them to soil tholr harvests at as good prices as for merly. In tho struggle to ovorcomo tho conditions created, highway engin eers must do ono of two things With the Toast and Tea; , xsss. .SSLi WWWW-s sx GOOD EVENING. The doctor sees all the weak- i ness of mankind, the lawyer all X the wickedness, the theologian all the stupidity. SCHOPENHAUER. If Schopenhauer had lived in Coos County he might have ad ded to the above, that the poli tician hears all the lying of mankind. "Ensyvllle." I've traveled round this world a bit, an' I am goin' still; I'm tryln' hard to find a place that some call "Easyville." They tell me folks don't have to work, an care is never found. That all they do In "Easyville" is just to loaf around. They have enough to eat and wear, an' sleep just all they please, An' pick the choicest fruits of life right off the hangln' trees; Now, do you wonder I have tramped these years o'er dale an hill To find the everlastln.' joy an.' rest of "Easyville"? I ask my brother from the North, "How looks It over there? Hast ever looked on 'Easyville'? Hast seen it anywhere?" He shakes his head; my brother from the East an' West the same, An' yet they cast a hungry look whene'er I speak the name. O "Easyville," so I am told, lays jest beyond the chain Of mountains called "Ambition," "Push," an' "Toil" an' "Stress" an' "Strain"; An I have looked these many years, an I am lookln' still, An' mebbe when I git to God He'll show me "Easyville." Cry and the world laughs at you; fail and it gives you a groan. There must be some good in some men in Marshfleld for the Lord never made anything just to pass away the time. There are some people In Marsh field who would never smile if it were not for other people's bad luck. Insincerity isn't always so blame worthy. Sometimes it is more im portant for us to keep our friends "Sonny," said Uncle Eben, "did you ever watch one o' dls here little tugboats come snortln' along takin' kyah of a great big ocean steamer?" "Yas indeed," answered Sunny Jim. "An' did you ever see one er dese motor boats pick up a great big scow an' drag It thru the bay?" "Lot's o' times." "Well, sonny, dom's all to remind you dat no matter how big or im portant an' stylish you gits, dar aln no tellln' when you may need help f'um somebody dat don' seem to cut no figure wuf mentlonln'." "Does the razor hurt you, sir?" in quired the Coos Day barber anxious ly. "Can't say," replied the victim, "but my face does." And a roadsurfacing material which makes no dust and needs no dust to maintain Its Integrity, or discover a method of controlling the dust on tho roads already laid. No dust proof road surface material cheap enough for use in country districts has been found, and tho experiments now proceeding are therefore along tho second line tho controlling of the dust by various methods of spraying and by tho use of binder materials. In some sections, espe cially through tho great fruit belts of California, splendid success in dust suppression has been attained by spraying tho earth roads with oils possessing asphaltlc bases. In other portions of tho country tho wise use of coal tar preparations has aided to n great extent, and drenching with calcium chlorldo has shown that tho dust can bo kept at a minimum. Those methods, however, are not solution of tho vnst problem of road maintenance and dust suppression. They aro merely palliatives nnd whllo they aro being advocated In such sections of the country ns will bo Immediately benefited, tho bigger problom of discovering nn nbsoluto nntldoto for tho action of tho auto mobllo Is occupying tho attention of scientists on both sides of tho Atlan tic. Tho solution of that problem may bo given at tho congross at Pnrls In tho fall, or It may bo dis covered before possibly on this side of tho western ocoan; ; possibly In tho lands whoro good roads were known when America was In Its swaddling clothes. than for them to know Just what we think of them.

Where propriety closes a woman's eyes and ears to so many things which Bhe Is dying to know about, is it any wonder that her intuition Is superiorly developed? 'STRAWBERRY EDITH Delicious Dish Invented by Escofller, the Famous Chef. Now that strawberries are In the market and will soon be plentiful some of the ambitious Coos Bay cooks may be interested in the very latest mode of serving the delicious dish. The Times Is not advised If all the ingredients are obtainable In the local markets but It might be worth trying. That Curacoa-Klrsch-Maraschlno sounds suspiciously like the ingredients of a Mllllcoma cock tail instead of an innocent dish of straw berries- But here Is. the story and the recipe as sent to me by an eastern correspondent: Before sailing from New York for Europe Maltre Escoffier, the famous chef who invented many dishes that made Emperor William forget the charms of beer and sausage and who knows how o cook eggs in 1G8 dif ferent ways, left as a token of his appreciation his latest invention In the gastronomlcal line. The day he was to sail he placed before James B. Regan of the Knickerbocker hotel, whose guest he had been for a week, a dish of which strawberries was the foundation. Regan wanted more, but there was no more. It was the )nly sample of the new dish, and Maltre Escoffier had tried It on Re gan to see If it was worthy of leav ing as a souvenir. He said it was "the strawberry Edith" and some thing entirely new. It was offered to the guests of the Knickerbocker that night and made a great hit at 85 cents a dish. The demand for the recipe was so great that Mr. Regan made It public. Here it is: "Fresh strawberries rolled in va nilla sugar, flavored with curacao-kirsch-maraschino dished in Melba dish, covered with whipped cream, flavored with vanilla sugar and violet leaves crushed."
