V, .TAR AND TEAR ON ROADS.

Is Wear and Tear Increased by Reason of Larger and Heavier Loads? The replies vary according to local'ty. In some of the trucking or farmgardening districts It Is stated ‘ The titimhor of baskets of track put on a market wagon In 'ore the improved roads was from 40 to CO; only in a few cases where the common roads uor.» heller than usual, did they carry 70 baskets. Since the improved roads new , w agons are constructed especially to carry truck suited to the new condition; they carry from 150 to ISO baskets, still using two horses draw them.” The wagons carrying manure formerly > rried from one to one and a half ti is as a two-horse load. Now the str ngth and weight of the wagon is increased, so that from four to five tons are drawn by two horses. This, of course, has call - ('d the wear and tea’- to increase, particularly where the old narrow ires are useil The Case with w'hich manure Is carted now and the largo amount which can be drawn with one Irani have stimulated truck raising and market gardening, and there is greater increase of this kind of teaming Under these circumstances it would not seem right to compare ttio cost of repairs of the road before it was Imprtived with the present cost of the repairs of the improved road for the purpose of proving that the impro- ed roads are a greater tax on the people than common roads.—Agricultural Bulletin.

smooi/rt SUPERSEDE PARENTS? TheBoston School Committee has appointed twenty-one women nurses to serve under a supervisor and to be in charge of all the pupils In the public schools, The physicians who for several years have Investigated all ca>'es of illness and seen to the iiuarantiulng of children exposed to contagion will be retained and will direct the nurses. The new scheme, is to cost $25,000 a year. Not content with this Innovation .1 Randolph Coolidge, one of the most prominent citizens of Boston, thinks the committee should revolutionize the present grammar-school s>stem. He would have the grammar schools relocated near the city’s pa:^j. the children kept at school all day, giving them traiL>po:*tation roni home to School and back again it public expense would eliminato home studies and have the play of the children supervised by the schoo, authorities. If government regulation of children is to be carried much further parents will bo left to pay the bilU for their children's food and clothing while strangers will ‘‘bring up'’ the youngsters for them.

FILIPINO STUDENTS ABROAD. The Philippine Review is a bimonthly magazine published in Berkeley, Cal., and edited, we infer, entirely by Filipino students. In a late issue the magazine prints the names of more than 3 00 Filllplno young women as well as young men, now studying in this country and abroad. About 76 per cent, of the number are scattered throughout the Unted States; about 40 are in England and about 25 in Japan. Austria, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Belgium and Switzerland have from one to four each. Some are obtaining a general education and others are specializing. There are students of law, of medicine, commerce, agriculture, engineering electricity and art. The Islands are represented in agricultural schools aijii in State normal schools, in high schools, large universities, small State universities and in colleges. There are Filipino students in the Harvard medical and Yale law schools, in Cornell, Berkeley, Georgetown, Boston Technology in the universities of Chicaga; Pennsylvania, Ohio and a number of others. The list of institutions in which there is at least one Filipino is too long for Inclusion in full. At no one place Is there any very considerable attendance. The plan of scattering is excellent. Were all to go to one place or to a limited number of places the Inevitable tendency would be the formation of school colonies of Filipinos. As it is the student from the Philippines must associate with American students and that should benefit both. The education of Filipino youths In lands of more advanced civilization is now a continuous performance. That is,_ as some return from their studies to take their places in the affairs of their own land others go out to ‘acquire the same larger world. The number thus equipped and to be equipped for their work in the world during the next ten or twenty years is considerable. It should and doubtless will form an active force of great usefulness in the solution of our problem in the Far East. It would be well If they wore numbered by thousands instead of by hundreds.

BETTER FIRE PROTECTION IN FACTORIES. The attempt to revise the Building Cotie has so far been notable chieily because of open charges that certain concerns through revision were planning to secure the exclusive use of their materials. But the passage by the Legislature of the Wagner bill, which creates a commission to investigate the conditions tinder which manufacturing Is carried on in cities, with especial regard to fire danger to the operators, really marks a forward step. The measure was urged by the Committee on Safety and other civic bodies, including labor organizations. It adds nothing in the way of immediate protection against fire, but it does give promise of a thorough Inquiry, with the assistance of competent experts, which should' result in better laws and permanent reforms throughout the State. In the present circumstances the best that seems attainable is the strictest possible enforcement of the old laws regarding provisions against fire. After the New York Slocum disaster the Federal Government was moved to greater vig,lance in the inspection of harbor craft. There are reasons for believing that Its watchfulness has been relaxed. After the repeated warnings it Was received there can be no conceivable excuse for responsible officials, in case of any negligence in enforcing such laws as exist with all possible rigor. —New York World.

LAKE OF SOLID SODA IN EAST AFRICA. Wonderful as have been the reports of the vast soda deposit at I/ake Magadl In East Africa, the tendency hitherto has been to deem the stories fantastic. Now, however, the mystery is cleared up by the report of an expedition which penetrated quite to the interior of Britain’s remote possession—as far, indeed, as fifteen miles from the frontier of German East Africa. The ascertained facts, according to the "Chemical News,” are more surprising than were the first reports. What, In the case of an ordinary lake, woultl be water consists at Magadl of a solid deposit of soda, with a hard surface looking like pink marble. During the wet season — which in this region is very slidrt —the surface is covered with a few inches of water. Imracdiateiy after the cessation of the rains the whole of the surface becomes dry with the exception of a margin about thirty yards wide. Even during the wet season the amount or water on the surface in no way renders impracticable the working of the deposit. For many years “Indians" from Niarobi, who use this soda for washing purposes and as snuff, have been removing it from the lake without regard to the season. ;
