Our Public Roads.
WILMA, March 9TH, 1874

WILMA, March 9TH, 1874.
Mr.. EDIToR: | see in your editorial depart
ment on the subject of Roads, some very excel
lent advice to oil interested; but in replacing the
earth and sand that have accumulated in the
side bitches from roads long used, think there
is great error of judgment on your part, for
the following reason: First, the lifeless earth
Is carried away in muddy water; second, by the
clouds of dust, leaving TO be carried to the ditch
es, the sand, by the water flowing over the road
carrying away the lighter particles in the shape
of muddy water. As evidence of the truth of
my remarks, witness the large amount of sand
taken from the bitches and flats on the roads,
for masons and plasterng purposes. In the alb
sence of gravel these deposits of sand are the
next best, US you say, TO make good roads.
have noticed that your stirring this matter
up has come good effect, as 1t brings out SUI
peryisor, and we the people are glad to hear that
we have q supervisor, and that he is living; yet
from his remarks in relation to his road scraper
and its use, would suppose that he, or the
scraper, must be very much out of good order.
think there have been supervisors in our county
that could turn the road scraper to very good ac
count, removing the earth from the bitches after
the pillow, Cfproperly plowed,) to the centres of
the road If he mas not room to work directly
acros the road with the scraper, let him go dag
onally, and still deposit the dirt in the centre
One-horse scrapers are of more account in the
bitches than larger ones, besides the man who
attends the scraper can drive his own team at
the same time, and will remove more earth in
q given time, than six hands, and be more like
ly to put it where most needed, and particularly
so if he has his supervisor present to attend to
his duties, and show the hands (if he know
where to put the dirt. The district supervisors
should take q ride over their district and see
whether the people have cause to complain
We would just now like to see the supervisor of
Bel Air district take view of the road from
the White House to Stockton, and from tie lat
ter place by way of Red School House on both
branches leading to the Hartford turnpike.
If he would take the trouble of this ride,
think he could AID would designate where he
would have the county money expended with
perhaps pretty liberal additional allowance
Come, Mr. Supervisor of the Third district, do
come! Don'tput it off until old blustery March
has dried up the mud on those two roads.

ments, all for minor offences.
