GOVERNMENT III II.IS HIGHWAY or MOLASSES, t h-mii tincnt of Agriculture plans Cnitm Roadway for In DuMy Districts Molasses, Oil, Lime water mid Rook I'orin Combina tion To Sine 1'nrmcrs Thousand In Hauling Costs Ring Louis' Itoml of Sugar. Washington, Sept. 17. To gratify tho whim of n king's mistress Louis XIV of France built a 12-milo road of sugar to give his favorite a sleigh i Mo in Mimmrr time. To save American farmers thous and, of dollars in hauling costs and make a dust proof road, the depart ment of agriculture is now complet ing experiments and testing what the future will know as tho "candy" road. "Candy" in more ways than one this new road is termed. Officials believe it will be of great benefit to the communities adopting it. And, moreover, the ' principal material of Its manufacture Is molasses. In all flights of fancy It is proba ble that nobody except a scientist would go so far afield In research as to adopt molasses as a road building material, but that Is exactly what has been done here, and Assistant Chem-l--t Prevost Hubbard of Director I'age's scientific corps, Is leveling a half mile stretch of road near New ton, and In a few days will be in ac tive supervision of the laying of tho first molasses road of history. The molasses used Is the almost U'clt ss by-product of the great cane sugar refineries of the south, and the Ik et susar refineries of the west and southwest. It Is sicklshty sweet, in;-r!y ns black and as thick as tar. and almost -us powerful as a binder. Having always been a wate product, It can be bought at a lower price than eoal tar and In greater iiantitles. When the quantity ond the sticky consistency of this material was called to the attention of Director Page, a number of months ago, he conceived the Idea that It might aid In solving the always difficult problem of dusty roads. He sent for a supply for lab oratory experiments and detailed Mr. j Ilu'ii'uard to conduct them. The mo lasses was blended with oils and lime water; was mixed with rook dust, with earth and with sand and tried out under heat and under water. It behaved so Well and held out such Pioniises for Idea! roads that the practical test of a real road was. re cently decided upon.

That Is only one of the th'ngs that disgusts Seufert, how ever. He does not relish Master Fish Warden McAllister's action In con fiscating his fish Monday, and fur tin r he has no burning love for the (renn fishing law as enacted by the voters of the state following the eff'its of the up-river and down river fishermen respectively, to se cure monopolies of that Industry last spring. Seufert's bill of complaint Is set forth In a letter to the Chronicle and says in part: "f perfectly willing to fight out the muddle of fish laws that the vot- ers of this mate have saddled upon those engaged In the fishing business, an If we may not operate our busl-j ness on this side of the river In a de-! cent way we will remove It to a de-1 cent state to opera'e It In. Oregon, has been well classed the "fool of the universe" and while I have lived here for 30 years and attended to my own bus'ness, if I can not follow my busl ness of canning salmon here I can follow it elsewhere. "The people of this state have at tempted to destroy our plant, which has taken a lifetime to bring to Its present stage honorably, and under the laws of this state and all this time we have never been accused of breaking a fish law. We have saved neither time or expense to help pro tect the Industry and have at all times given what time It took to help ad vanre the canning Industry, to protect young fish for further supply."
