Fleshertou Moat Emporium How to Make Ba4l Roads Th.r* ii an ahaurd idea gaining ground bare and rlnewhere that bettsr roads would 'j« advintaijeou., and that th« pre.-ent method of bnildiUB and niaintainiog them are out of date. In every ag<» and m every country there haa been a claes of agitators, d igruntled, dUaatiefieJ, endeaTorini; to overthrow cxialiug conditionH. In Itussia there are Nibiliiia, wIk- rebel agaiunt tlie tvrauuy of iba Cyar ; Spain is at preaeat dUturbed by Cuban patriots ; in Canada there are road reformers. The lant me tioncd a'e turbulent, obnoxious and aim at a state of anarchy. Bad roads are in every way desirable. They kill lime. Varmera have too mucii time hanging on their hands. They don't know what to do with it all. Time is money. Faimiri have money, usunllv, tliat they can atlor^l to kill time. Tutv have time to burn. Uut tbey don't burn their mon^y â€" just time. We have enjoyed the benefits of bad roads 40 loot; tbai if tbey were convened into good roads we wiiulilu'r know bow to use tliera. Kvery farmer would be as uu- comtortable as a Fiji Wander in » new suit ot clotiies and a fur (.vereoat. How the}' Would perspire t in tue meaulima the horses perspiie. Bad roada kill horties and help to keep up the price. Good r.>ads encourage lust ilrivii.g, and would ttierefure encourage cruelty to horses, l-'ast driving is veij' immoral. •Vith good roads every farmer's nou would own a nice tup bcfjgy, and would be able to keen it clean loug eiiouob to drive Into town ; ami they i ouid w.tut to spend half tlicir tiiue iu toun. Bad loads keep them nt home. Ihey have to " stick to the farm " because tbo farm nicks to tliem. Tnese arc a few of the reasons why wu want bud roadd. But it does rot compltte tho list b} any means. There are many 01 her matters resp cting commerce, society and civilizuiioii, wnich we liuve not space 'o even auggeiit. Ot coarse, ii they have been applied, id principle, to other matters bosiiles roads, <ve would still be witnout the I'liuiing press and steam railway. We Hou.il l;e without reli); ous and educational iiistitutiins. There would be no p.ogr. ss, no civilization. The savages of Central Africi would Hi lid imnsiinaries to us. Kll 1 it iH ovidebt tuat we want bad roads, lu UMCing them the tirat point to observe is that water ahould be kept in the road aa moch as porsible. \)tt^ trenches along each Side of the wagou tra.k, but do not provide a tall or outlets, to carry wa'er out of the triucbes, otnerwise they will be drains. Tii*'M trenches should hold water and per- luit it to soak into the roadbed, keeping it soil. It the sun ace of ine road shoull by auy means get dry, the lires of the vehicles will easily break tUiou^h the crust and sink i iio ihu soft fouudalioD. The ilirt from thes<i treiiclie*, composed of sod aud clay, ahoiilu bu thrown into tl e centre of the road, so at to secure a goo.l di'pih ot mud. By keeping tbu roadway Hat on tho surface therx wiil be little danger 01 aulm^i uraiQHge to any extent by the greater height of the centre. The sod, too, will dec.'iy, mil is rteelleut to keep the road in a muddy coi dtliou. If gravel must be used on the road choose a ipiali y containing plenty of sand and ctay. This will rctalu moisture and will yield easily uiiiler the tratBc in wet wea- ther. There should be plenty 01 big stones to roll around under the feet of the horses and the wheels of the vehicles. A rotten culveit, standing a foot or so above the roa IS almost necessary for making a bad road ill us ideal slate. Tliey break the mouotfluy, carriages aud bor^e legs. A road-grader Is a good thing with whicli to nink- bad roads, although in the hnnds of an uuacrupulous person it inuy also bo ninployo.i in making gooil roails. Care hhuuld tie taken to olipose an operator who doe»n'l know bow to make a good road, and the chances are that he will bo succesa- fi<l in producing a bad one. Do not keep one man cousiantly employed on i:, but puss it aiound fur everyone sod anyone to iiy their hand on. It is just like a plow in iMh rtspect. Po not get an experienced man in the tirat inatnuoe, acil tee that no one gets auy experience. When iis'ng it on a gravel road always tmn the dirt and mid from tho shoulders of the read, and the ditolii's into tlia centre of the road. If gravel can l>e covered by this means let the maker ot luul roads wear a blisarul smile. lie has ci'onned his ellints with success. If the gravel road wai proTiously good it will lie ruined by this treatment. Use unrrow tirOH. Wide tires have a fiidiney to keep the surface smooth. Nar- row tirci cut into the road and are harder for the bor8?8 to pull, but the man who has the inlereat of bad rnads truly at heart must not hesitate. Iluuiles the horses have to no the puliiui.'. The driver can sit on top of the load aud ainoko. WhiU use are good roads anyway ? We must have lime to smoke. If these few principles are carefully fel- liiivtd out our roads will remain pretty mnoh as tbey are at present for a nmulier id yettr8.--Munic;iial World. Hand grenade*, the aimplest form of fire extinKuisher. can be inado at home cheaply and easily. And it U well to have at hand a simple contrivanco for exIinguishinK a small tire at its start. Take twenty pounds of common salt and ten pounds of m1 ammoniac (nitrate of ammonia, to be had of any drugi;ist), and dissolve in seven ijallons of water. Pro- cure quart bottles of thin Kla<i.<i, such as are ordinarily used Viy dru^gist-s. and fi 1 with this, corking tightly and sealinc, to prevent evaporation. In case of fire throw so as to break in or near the flame. If the tire is in such a place as to pre- vent the bottle from lireskin?, aa in wool or cotton, knock off the neck and scatter the content;). The breaking of tlio bot- tle liberates a certain amount of gas, and the heat of the fire genera' es more, thus working its own djslruction. Tirae Table aoisc; SOUTH.
