H., the farm tractor has been successfully used In making and prepalrlng rouds, doing away with horses. A tractor, as shown In the picture, was used In conjunc-tion with the regulation road machine for rounding off the surface of the road and cleaning out gutters. It was found that the tractor not only easily does the work of six or eight horses, but better and In less time. Two men only are required as compared with four required with the former system. Besides, double the ground Is covered. When the tractor Is used with the road drag, one man, driving the trac-tor, can round up and smooth as much state road In half a day as one man with a pair of horses In one day and a half. The tractor hauls four to six 1 j Efficient Aid In Road Repairing. cartloads of gravel In the same time that a two-hors- e team requires for one load. Figured In dollars and cents, the tractor could easily do $24 worth of work at a cost of only $8, with an additional saving of from 25 to 50 per cent In time. Popular Science Month-ly. MLY ONE LASTING CONTRACT (;V. Nuptial Agreement Must Ba Written In Hearts and Temperament of Contracting Couple. A Western couple, each of whom had been married twice before and twice divorced, have sought to Insure the success of their third venture by a detailed written contract. It Is surely one of the most extraordinary pre-- nuptial agreements ever made. Re-- ! (nemberlng the rocks upon which their various matrimonial ships have been wrecked before, they have care- - fully charted them and mapped out the course around them. The con-tract specifically sets forth which one Shall build the fires, when the hus-- j band may bring guests home to meals, ( when the relatives of each shall visit them, and how the spending of money Is to be divided, how often the wife may attend clubs and social func-tions. . ' Thus the? have arranged, they think, for every possible contingency ' that may arise In the wedded life of ' two persons. ' Maybe they will find It so. But. It takes no pessimistic spirit to suspect that such a contract contains either j too much or too little, j The possible trouble of a marrlpd couple may be provided against by contract. But It must be a contract not of paper and writing, bat of the heart and the temperamenv. If the hearts be right, all the possi-ble troubles . of the pair may be ; summed up In a few words. But If j these be not right, no possible combin-ation of all the words In the diction-ary can even Indicate the possible troubles, i The marriage contract that means ' the most need say the least. "To love and cherish one another" here Is a contract that covers more ground ' . than can definitely be expressed In j all the words In the language. If that will not hold good under all contingencies, no other contract will. Christian Herald.

It is said by some of the dealers In white stones that many of our newly rich munition makers have been salting away dia monds, and they admit that they haven't seen such prosperous times since the famous Kohinoor was a dew drop. This flush of diamond buying Indicates the latest word In "caglness on the part of the possessors of the diamond price. And here Is the an. ewer: Investments In diamonds are not reckoned in tho tally of sources ot ' Income. That's one of the things the framers of the income law tax over. looked. Bonds, yes; automobiles, yes first and second mortgages, two yeses In the same place. But the money, spent In collecting sparklers does not have to be accounted for in the tabu-- 1 latlon of taxable values. DiamonJ money is easily convertible at any time, and it may even yield dividends on the upward trend of the diamond! mart Nation Has Responded Nobly But Still Greater Sacrifices Must Be Made " A - By CORA R1GBY Liberty and democracy ! These have been the underlying words, the basic principles, of the loans which the men, women and children of the country have been asked to mako to the United States government. The magnificent response t the appeal has been due not only to the fapt, that the loans were the safest investment in the world but rather because, in this form; the people could ehow their faith, could participate in the war which ia to end the slaughter of innocent noncombatanta and the ruthless destruction of homes and villages and the laying waste of fruitful lands. The government of the United States will go on asking its people to give its pennies, its dollars, its thousands and its millions until the v war is won, confident that every patriot will sacrifice in every' other direc--n toon that he may have a share in helping this great cause in these trying days. The people have no canse to blush for what they have done in the first nine months of the war. The government has every reason for grati-tude. The big thing which flares instantly into view when the financial effort of 1917 is reviewed are the two Liberty loans, oversubscribed, not only willingly but joyously, and with the utmost enthusiasm. Splendid as have been the sacrifices and responses of the American people, they have yet to make greater sacrifices and to increase their gen-erosity. The wealthy must pay heavier taxes and lend more money to the government, and the wage earner and email salaried man must manage to give his proportion. The necessity for economy by everyone is making itself felt slowly but surely. Everyone must not only give up something that he really wants, but he must make that sacrifice count for the gov-ernment's efficiency in winning the war. RIGHT SYSTEM OF HIGHWAYS It Should Include Everything From Expensive Concrete to Minor Dirt Wagon Ways. What we need and In time will have Is a system of highways which will ramify from the largest cities fo the doorway of the humblest citizen vil-lager or farmer. Such a system of highways will include trunk lines with expensive concrete or brick surfaces for the very heavy traffic, Including trucks and automobiles. Less used bat important roads may be of waterbound macadam or gravel. Perhaps In cer-tain regions where stone and gravel are not at hand oiled roads may prove most economical and practical. Minor wagon ways must remain of native toll, built and maintained with the road drag. Meanwhile antagonism to road dragging breeds In a lack of in-formation or a narrowness which falls to comprehend the facts. D. Ward King. - Grease From Garbage. I The food administration's .figures chow the estimated grease production from garbage in the 29 cities in-es- tl-j gated to be 72,000,000 pounds, or enough to produce 10,000,000 pounds of nitroglycerin, enough for the powder charge of 16,000,000 American three-inc-h shells or French shells, and fatty acids In a sufficient quantity to manufacture about 200.-000,0- rakes of soap, weighing 12 ounces each. , . , It is further shown that the estl- -' mated fertilizer tankage produced in the 29 cities amounts to 150,000 tons, which contains about 9,000,000 pounds of nitrogen. 22,000,000 pounds of phos-phate of lime and 2,000,000 pounds of potash. These f chemicals are suffl-de- nt to renlace the nltrncon elements taken from the soil by 3,000,. 000 bushels of wheat. The estimated1-presen- t value of these quantities of grease and tankage, recovered from garbage, Is placed at $11,100,000. BENEFIT OF IMPROVED ROADS Make It Possible to Consolidate and Establish Graded School In Ru-ral Districts. (Prepared by the United States Depart inent of Agriculture.) That Improved roads would benefit our country-scho- ol system there would seem to be no doubt. Good roads make It possible to consolidate or centralize the schools and to establish graded schools in the rural districts. Such schools centrally located will accom-modate all of the children within a radius of four or five miles. In many communities having the advantage of Improved roads commodious buildings have been provided, more competent teachers employed, and modern facili-ties for teaching supplied at a, mini-mum cost Shackling the Temper. There is an a dupe somewhere to the effect that the fighter who loses his temper gladdens his enemy. The ex-perts of the prize ring will tell you this is a true saying. In further proof we have the Solomonic assurance that he who is slow to anger la better than the mighty. All of which means that anger Is weakening, and that the aian whs permits his temper to rule him om a destructive master. An Editor's Dilemma. I The editor of the Hartford Courant has added to his burden of cares by starting to worry over the question of dress. Man, he contends, wears too much, and calls upon some inventive genius to simplify masculine garb in order to save money and also time spent In Juggling buttons. Taking an Inventory of himself, the editor discovered that before going downtown he must put on one under-su- it two socks, two sock supporters, one shirt, a pair of trousers, a pair of suspenders or belt two shoes, a collar, a necktie, a vest, a coat and a hat 15 separate articles.

For the first time an experiment In temporary Improvement of deep sand roads by use of a carpet of straw, hay, or wire grass, sprinkled with tar or bituminous produce, will be tried on Wisconsin highways In the vicinity of Rla, Columbia county. It Is hoped to devise methods which will fit the road for travel at small expense, and It Is predicted that this straw carpet will last three, years where traffic Is not hesvy. Other experiments In resur-facing highways are to be tried on the Baraboo-Kllbour- n road.
