We presume the evils ': of ice chopping by the axe were suftici, i ently obvious last spring and since. and , an exchange has a warning against salt which in this case loses its quality as a preservative. Here it is: "It is not generally understood that salt will de. stroy a cement walk in shorter time than anything else known. The salt vats into the cement and destroys the original surface, leaving it rough and uneven. It is claimed by those in a, position to know that this is responsibl- for the poor condition of a great num 'lier of walks. Residents sprinkle salt on them in the winter to thaw the ice. In the spring they flnd the surface eaten 'away and blame the man who pntdown the wrlk. Fine sand will answer the purpose as well and leave the walk unimpaired. Mr. B. H.
