The many recent successful flights of airshipsâ€"â€"- of which Count Zeppelin's journey of 850 miles is the latestâ€"have a tendency to create a feeling of more or less discontent with present-day methods of locomotion, the best of which seem slow and toilsome, compared with the anticipated delights of aerial navi- gation. Still, it must necessarily be many years yet before anybody but a very favored few can aiford to strike the country road 01f his list of necessities, and this being the case, the improve- ment of the roads of the country is not only worth considering, but is of great importance. The loss by poor roads has become so well recognized that it is not any longer disputed, and municipalities everywhere now are studying only how to get good roads. Prof. Campbell, who is probably the most reliable authority on the subject, in a recent address em- phasized the importance of drainage ill road construction, from which it would appear that drainage is not' always given the attention it should have. Prof. Campbell says: “ I have figured the principles for good road building down to three. The first is drainage, the second is drainage, and the third is drainage. That is all there is to it. As long as the water re- mains in the road foundation it is use- less to try to build a road over it. The three principles work as follows: Place tile properly so as to drain foundation ; then give the road a crown so as to shed the water to gutters which lead to catch basins, thus disposing of it quickly; and then place impermeable material over the surface so hard as not to absorb wa- ter, but shed it. If these principles are not carried out, any kind of permanent surface will be destroyed. On each side of the road place a tile drain in a narrow trench four feet deep, and cover with stone, gravel, sand or other porous ma- terial. Next you should crown your road. This requires proper machinery ; but un- less you have a man who properly'un- dcrstands the machines, you are better off without them.” ' Village Council. 7 Fenclon Falls, June lst, 1909.

Vcrulam Council. The Verulanl Council met at the Town Hall, Bobcaygeon, on Tuesday, the Reeve, E. Tiers,'Esq., in the Chair, and all members present. The Council first met as a Court of Revision, Mr. John Mitchell, on motion of Messrs. Brooks and Green, acting as Chairman. The Dunsford and the Burnt River Telephone Companies appealed, on the ground that they were under 25 miles and party lines. On motion of Messrs. Tiers and Green the Dunsford Co'y was reduced to 11 miles and at $200 for main line between Dunsford Central Oliice and Bob- caygeon. On motion of Messrs. Tiers and Brooks the easement of Burnt River Co’y was written off. A few changes were made of owners, tenants, sons, etc. and the Court adjour- ned till the 29th. In regular session the Reeve took the Chair. Mr. Mcllmoyle wished to cut wood ofl side line between 25 and 26 Con 10, and on motion of Brooks and Mitchell it was _ referred to Div Commissioner. A petition was presented asking for a survey between concessions 4 and 5 across lots 1 and 2, and on motion of Lewis and Green, the Clerk was instruc- ted to obtain copy of the field notes of original survey, and ask Messrs Parker and English to attend next meeting of the Council. Mr. English complained of having a heifer calf worried and killed by dogs, and the complaint was duly fyled.‘ Claims were made for compensation by Thos. Thurston on one sheep and one lamb, and by Joseph Curtis on three lambs, killed by dogs unknown, the form- er valued at $13 and the latter at $10.

Messrs» Tiers and Green, deputcd to inspect the cement bridges and culverts in Mariposa, reported being fully con- vinced of the economic value of such structures. On motion of Messrs. Issac Lewis and Geo. Brooks, the Reeve and Mr. Green were commissioned to rebuild the Mar- tin creek bridge. On motion of Brooks and Green it was decided to purchase a small wheel scraper and two iron scoop barrows. The Clerk reported that on the 11th inst. in company with John MuDonnell Chas. Fail-balm and Geo. Smith 0. L. S. be had attended at the side line between lots 9 and 10 Con. 19 to ascertain whethâ€" er the pine post shown on field notes and used by Jas. Dickson O. L. S. in his survey in Dec. 1908 was a centre post as declared by Chas. Fairbairn or the cor- ner post of lot No. 9. They had taken pieces of post preserved and upon settâ€" ing up the letter ‘R’ showed on the North side andwest side and on the south side although very indistinct the marks were still visible showing N IX. which Mr; Smith accepted as proving beyond a doubt that the pine post was the corner post of lot No 9. and not the centre of side line. It was accordinglyresolved, on motion of Green and Lewis, that the Clerk be instructed to write John McDonnell a notice to remove his fence off side line 9 and 10 con 19 forthwith, and in case it is not done, then the Com. be instructed to'have him remove same at Mr. McDon- nel’s expense. - -' The Clerk reported on the return of -W.
