The home newspaper is a socia and intellectual thing as well as a mernua oi pusiness. une can not serve the community better than by seeing that interesting items get to the editor. The ed itor is no mind reader, call him up and tell him. To do so is t he neighborly thing, the kind- hearted thing a courtesy not to the publisher alone but to every one in the district who might be interested in your little item. . 'If you can once get all your people in the way of voluntarily pouring these interesting scraps of news into the weekly paper you will add immensely to the general friendliness of the com munity. You will be helping to make your town the kind of a place where people want to stay and to which former residents want to come back. ' "So try to get ideas into the paper, write a uttie tor it once in awhile. Don't let the' editor do all the thinking for "the town. If you publish ideas ' you will start others to thinking and they raise by just so much the general level of intelligence. Encourage the home paper to be a business, social and intel lectual center of the community. It will richly repay..' Can by Herald. ' ' Garden Home Club House Burnt. Only a bare brick chimney re mains standing today where yes terday stood the Portland Hunt club's building at Garden Home. Fire razed the building last night, causing a loss of $5000 to the club. There is $2500 insur ance. Mrs. Ambrose M. Cronin, whose home is a short distance fro the club quarters, discov ered at 9:20 last night flames shooting from the kitchen. She called her husband and other members of the club, but the fire had gained such headway that it burned to the ground before a bucket brigade could get into action. The homes of Cronin, Dr. W. L. Wood and Fred A. Martin near the club house were in danger from the sparks swept in their direction by a strong north wind, but the occupants successfully prevented further damage. The fire is thought to have started from an overheated stove in the kitchen. It broke out shortly after Mrs. L. E. Ashoff had left for the night. Mrs. Ashoff is the caretaker and her personal loss included a piano, furniture and furnishings, which were not protected by insurance. The valuable trophies belonging to the elub are in a vault in Portland and the club lost only a few choice photographs and pic tures in addition to the principal Vincent Mazzoi jBeaverton Oregon For Sale. , Fresh Jersey cow.

The grand jury convened in special session yesterday to dis pose of the cases accumulated since that body took a recess from the first of the term. Sev eral persons are held in jail for investigation. 0?.J3 AFTER EACH RAH Ruts fthtmld to Kpt Filltrf MKjl tht Road Crowned With $lep Toward th 8id Ditch! pf Frm Thm feurtht to On Inoh t th Foot Kmp Sid Ditch CImk Water plus clay or ordinary earth, when mixed. Invariably fonus mud. On ordinary earth roods the nine and melting snow furnlaU the water and the passing traffic the mixing, ana tin reshlt Is muddy roads. Take away tbe water or prevent it from mixing with the clay or earth on .the road surf act' and little or no mud will result In other words, keep your road dry if you wish it to remain hard, smooth ami free from mud, Except in very sandy or arid region good drainage is the cardinal principle in the maintenance of earth and graves roads. Get the water away from tin road fl quickly and completely as po albie. "Water naturally seeks the low eat level. You cannot keep the watci from falling on the road, but you can assist Us natural inclination to get nay to a lower level. Keep tbe rut!) Ailed and-he rood crowned with 8 slope -toward tbe side ditches of from three-fourths to one inch to tbe foot, and the water will not collect on tlu road and soak in and be mixed to mud by passing traffic. Keep the side ditches clean and with frequent out lets to get the water away from tbe road entirely. Do tot let tbe culverts clog up or material accumulate In tbe ditches and hold back pools of water to Bonk into and soften the foundation of your road. Water is an enemy that will run away if you give it a chance Do not neglect to give it every chance. Like most other enemies, water Js not very destructive or dangerous un til it collects in force. Therefore get the water away from your road at ev ery available opportunity and before tt has time to collect In sufficient vol ume to be daugerous to tbe road, and do not invite certain disaster by nink Ing your culverts too small to care for the largest possible storm. Further more, build the culverts so that tl water will of necessity flpw through them and not find a way around or be Death them. Properly designed sub . stantial wing and end walls are tht , fortifications which protect the culver) from attack and destruction during se i vere storms. Do not build dry weatb , er culverts; build them with a view to caring for and protecting the road dur i Ing the worst possible storms. I Make your road dry, build tt hard and compact with a crown sufficient t shed water rapidjy to the side dltctipr, and with ample culverts and drains To keep your road dry maintain tbi drainage In good condition. Drag you roads after each rain. Dragging 1 1 11 , in the ruts, smooths the surface an;5 maintains the crown. On a road which has been properly dragged the rain Hilda no place to collect and soak tntd and soften tbe surface. Unless tbe rain is of long duration the surface b softened but very little. A.s soon ar the rain has ceased and the road sur face dried so that the clay Is not sticky, but while it is stilt plastic, drat; the road again. ' Any depression or ruts which have been formed during and after the rain are thus filled and the surface smoothed up and plastered over with a thin plaster of clay oi earth which packs and becomes very bard under passing traffic. Therefore In order to make and keep your road dry first provide for good druinage and then maintain the good drainage by systematic dragging after each rain Diligent attention to these points will In general inure an earth road fairly passable at alj times and very good most of tbe time-Southern Good Roads, Remarkable System of Concrete Roads, Wayne county, in Michigan, has the most remarkable system or concrete reads in the United States. Their con struction began about seven years ayo. The value of farm lands has in many Instances more than doubled. Farmers who formerly required four horses to transport their produce to town now use one horse. Where trip to market formerly occupied an entire day, or perhaps two, tbe Journey Is now made in a few hours. These roads radiate like the Bpokee of a wheel with Detroit as their center. The great department stores of the-city deliver merchandise over a wide area, going now into what were formerly remote rural districts. In brief, many of these farms, On so far as easy access to tbe city la con cerned, have become suburban proper ties. The average maintenance on con crete roads sixteen feet wide has been less than 930 per mile per year, and in the case of a concrete road built in Bellefontalne, O., more than twenty years ago, a road subject to constant use since that time, the average repair charges havo-been less than $25 per mile per year. .
