160 acre tracts The requirements of the law are practically the same re garding residence improvements and cultivation These lands are going fast if you want a homestead close to the railroad you should act now CROPS AND RAIN FALL Visitors to the Omaha Corn Show will remem ber the magnificent display of arm products from Weston county Wyoming grown on exactly the same kind of land that can now be taken in 320 acre home steads The Mondell Act includes lands that receive from 16 to 21 inches of rain fall annualiy and you only need to see the crops grown ty the farmers already located there to be convinced These homesteads can be taken along the Burl ingtons new line now building in Wyoming I personally conduct excursions the first and third Tuesdays of each month to these lands and am

comparatively small cost Pro tracted rainy weather may prevail or regular gully washers may come but the roads treated by the new proc ess will keep hard and smooth even though mud is knee deep in the ditches and in the tields A prominent oil coin puny asserts ii lias solved the prob lem The general manager of the fuel oil department of that company in New York city stales that for several years his company lias been making tests to perfect an oil which would serve the same purpose on the earth roads in the country and slnall towns as rhe asphalt road oil does ou the macadamized boulevards In April the company placed on the market the standard m icnda mixed asphalt binder oil for earth roads Tests have been made in dincient parts of the United States and the general manager says It has been thoroughly demonstrated to be a complete success To show his confidence ill the oil arrangements have been completed to build a small section of road at Independence Mo The process of making good roads with this new brand of road oil is very simple First the road must be plow ed thoroughly and then run over sev eral times with a harrow after which it should be rounded with u grader and dragged to make it hard After this it -is ready for the road oil The cost of this process is far less than the rock or macadamized roads of course said the manager It will cost from SHOO to a mile to thor oughly oil an earth road the first time The cost after that is far less each year to keep it oiled It Is expected that this new process will revolutionize road building We receive thousands of letters from all parts of the country asking for com plete details The demand has been so strong it has been necessary to have printed matter prepared ou the sub- ject The good roads movement is spreading rapidly It is one of the most striking evidences of continued and substantial prosperity Good roads enhance the value of property and the pleasure of living in the community CONCRETE BLOCKS FOR ROADS Only the Wheel Track Is Paved Re ducing Cost of Construction Orlando H H Dickson of Jackson ville Fla one of the most active champions of good roads in Duval county for many years has received word from his attorney at Washington that a patent has been allowed on his concrete block for constructing roads The authorities at the patent office at method was they thought in conflict with other similar roads that had been patented but Mr Dickson employed a first class attorney who fought the matter through to a successful issue The road as patented consists of heavy concrete blocks in shape uot un like common T rails laid on their sides except that they are much larger and only three or four feet in length They have a mortise on one end and a tenon on the reverse end and so are locked together making them a con tinuous road but easily repaired if broken as one block can be taken out and another one inserted in a few moments time The groove is large enough to easily carry an automobile tire and such a road can be built with a double track at less cost than ordi nary first class countrv roads cost for concrete work who assure him that a machine can be constructed to turn out several hundred blocks in a day at small cost for labor A short piece of the road Is now in use be tween Jacksonville and Apoka and has been tested enough to prove its com plete adaptability as a Hrst class road for farm vehicles or automobiles Crushed Coral For Roads fiPtiera vailos Garcia Wlez minis ter from Cuba to the United States who has been traveling in the west to promote reciprocity sentiment says that Cuba boasts of more than liUU miles of the most excellent macadam roads in the world We used crushed coral in our roads in Cuba said he and there is uo better medium for road building known It is practically impervious to watpr and when rolled smooth pre serves for many years its continuity Our government has expended in 0000U0 in the past three years in this kind of improvement and will con tinue until we have a perfect system of roads Good Roads Would Help Everybody rPlm rrrwwl rvirlc Tiinrunimif iu -in Fire In East KcCooK Last Friday Fire destroyed n barn coal
