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.

SALMON FISHER TALKS
OF LEAVING OHEGOX
The Dalles, Sept. 17. F. A. Seufert
th fih king, doesn't like to be called
by that title. 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."

Spokane. Sejt, 16 Whether the
study of "pie" shall be added to the
high school curriculum Is the ques
tion which now faces the Spokane
school board. Mrs. J. W. Marshal has
appeared before that body and sug
gested that the aspects of pie, geo
metrical, physical, chemical and phy
siological were worthy of a place in
the study ride of any civilized system
of education Moreover, the lady
herself Is willing to Initiate the
youthful mind Into the penetralia of
tne great American dessert.
"Pie," snld Mrs. Marshall. "Is the
great American dessert. Nine out of
every 10 American families eat pie.
It Is a subject that appeals to every
man's stomach."
Mrs. Marshall has a new and orig
inal formula for making pie crust
which she desires to sell to the pub
lic schools to be used in the domestic
science deprtmeiit. After a short ora-
t!":i o:i pie.i In general and a disser
tation of the merits of her pie crust
in particular she submitted samples
of the product of her method of mak
ing the pastry. I
"Simply lovely," said Ir. W. H.
Allen, president of the board of direc
tors. "Madam, the board will con-1
sider your proposition and let you'
know later what action will be ta-j
kon.A What was left of the pie was;
laid on the table for consideration!
upon Mrs. Marshall's departure. !
