The happiest man in tho land today,
says an exchange, is tho successful
farmer. lo sits contentedly tinder
Ills own vino and fig tree, undisturbed
by the maddonlng noises of the great
city. Hanks fall, railroads go Into tho
hands of tho rcoelvers, booming towns
collarno, all business stagnates. iJut
tho wlso farmer oan snap his flngors at
all these things, lie Is monarch of all
hp surveys on hln broad ncros And
the honesty of his boys and tho purity
of his glrlB is guarded against tempta
tion and In them ho Is giving tho conn-,
try Its beet womanhood and manhood.
The farmer Is to bo onyiod and If ho is
not conteuted with his lot ho Is lacking
In wisdom.
Tho Standard Oil company, through
Its agent, the Continental Oil com
pany, Is lovying a heavy tax upon,
iov Moxlcn consumer of coal oil. Of

The advnntnges to bo derived from
good stone rends nro so manifold that
nil other materials should be discarded
where tough ropd stone is available for
their cotistroctlon and maintenance.
Unt it la greater oovttomy to uho earth
or gravel thnn to go to tho expense of
macadamising roads with too soft, toq
brltlloor rotten uiaUrlul. Many use
this because It Is easily prepared. A
road should never bo sarfnead with
enythlng short of ;rap rock or serpen
tine, inferior material limy often be
used with Impunity for tho ilrst layer,
or foundation, but even this should be
selected with groat care.
The ovlls rofinllltig from improper
construction of stone roads are oven
greater than those from tho uso of im
proper inntorlaL Macadam never in
tended that a hotnrogeneous conglomera
tion of stone and mud should bo called
it macadam imA. Neither did ho In
tend that the name should bo applied
to roads constructed of largo nud email
stones mixed together and sproad upon
tho surface. The surface of a road bnllt
In this manner is constantly disturbed
by the larger stones, which work to tho
surface and which aro knocked hither
and thither by the wheals of vehfcles
and the feet of animals, Hiich methods
of oonstractiou cannot bo too severely
condemned.
The first course of foundation of tho
uyioadam road can bo mado of tho
ooursost stones from tho crnshor, pro
vided that they nro of uniform also and
that eaeh stone shall weigh not over
nix ounces and will pass through a 2j
Inch ring. Where the road Is to, bo
eight Inchos thick this foundation
should bo four Inches after rolling. If
tho road Is to be of greater thicknesi
than olght inches, the foundation
shonld bo composod of two courses
separately rolled.
After having tborongbly. rolled- this
foundation apply enough ground stono
or ooarso sand to All tho Interstice.
This should be wotted and thoroughly
rolled until 11 hard and uniform surfaco
is obtained.
Upon this foundation tho surface
moterltU should be placed, wottod and
thoroughly rolled. Tho stones of which
thla enrfoce material Is compoisd
should bo If poiudblo crushed to a also
of one Inch In diameter; but if that Is
not porislble they should nover bo Inr-
Sin- iu diameter than IK inehna,
round stone scroonlngs should then, bo
spread upon tho surface wetted and
rolled as before, until a hard smooth
surface is the result

Before tho advent of stone roads the
leading highways, not graveled, were
almost a bed of sand, and teams carried
40 or 00 baskets of produce to Philadel

shipped prodnoo mainly by railways
and boats as being the cheaper method.
The farmers now cart to market
Instead uf sending by boat nnd return
with from three to iive tons of manure,
