Cotton Holds Wrinkles
-Wool Holds Style
You dont care what your clothes are
made of all you want is the result
If somebody could invent a way to
make more lasting and more stylish
clothes out of part cotton than out of
pure wool you would prefer the cotton

are that part cotton clothes hold
vjrinhles and keep shabby while
clothes of pure wool hold style and
keep shapely

OIL MADE EARTH ROADS
New Product Which Will Keep Dirt
Highways Hard and Smooth
Now it Is possible to iniike smooth
boulevards out of rough country roads
at a comparatively smiill cost Pro
tracted rainy weather may prevail or
regular gully washers may come
but the roads t rented by the new proc
ess will keep hard and smooth even
though mud is knee deep in the ditches
and In the fields A prominent oil com
pany asserts It has solved the prob
lem The general malinger of the fuel
oil department of that company in
New York city states that for several
years his company lias been making
tests to perfect mi oil which would
serve the same purpose on the earth
roads in the country and small towns
as the nsphnlt rond oil does on the
macadamized boulevards In April the
company placed on the market the
standard macuda mixed nsphnlt hinder
oil for earth roads Tests have been
made in different parts of the United
States and the general manager says
it has been thoroughly demonstrated
to be a complete success To show his
contidence in 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 a 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 to a mile to thor
oughly oil an earth rond the tirst 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 ail
parts of the country asking for com
plete details The demand has been
so strong it has been necessary to have
printed matter prepared on 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 otlice at
first refused him a patent because the
method was they thought in conflict
with other similar roads that had been
patented but Mr Dickson employed a
tirst class attorney who fought the
matter through to a successful issue
The road as patented consists of
heavy concrete blocks in shape not 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 togetner making tuera a con
tinuous road but easily repaired if
broken as one block can be taken out
and another one inserted iu 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 country roads cost
Mr Dickson is In correspondence with
several manufacturers of machinery
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 uow in use be
tween Jacksonville and Apoka and has
been tested enough to prove its com
plete adaptability as a first class road
for farm vehicles or automobiles
Crushed Coral For Roads
General Carlos Garcia Velez 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 loOU
miles of the most excellent macadam
roads In the world
We used crushed coral in our roads
in Cuba said he and there is no
better medium for road building
known It is practically impervious
to water and when rolled smooth pre
serves for many years its continuity
Our government has expended 15
000000 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
The good roads movement is an
economic movement a thing that
somewhere and at some time touches
the pocket nerve of every producer
and every consumer in the land a fac
tor as indispensable as navigable in
land waterways to the fundamental
settlement of all freight rate questions
A real and stable macadam highroad
between Denver Kansas City and Chi
cago for instance would be of more
benefit to the economic development of
Colorado than forty successful appeals
to the interstate commerce commission
Good Road Campaign
The chamber of commerce of
Wichita Falls Tex has engaged in a
campaign of education on good roads
subjects It is sending out speak
ers with stereopticon exhibits to lec
ture in county schoolhouses on the
advantages of improved roads and to
secure signatures to a petition to the
county commissioners to call an elec
tion to vote on a 100000 bond Issue
for the construction of good roads in
the precinct or district
