The Roads of the French.

Thorough construction, vigilant watch
ing and prompt repair are the secrets of
French success with roads. They are
OF three kinds-national, department
and township. The general rule in rural
districts is to sacrifice the straight line
in order to follow the valleys as much
as possible, rising by gentle grades
where this is required. Side drainage is
provided for, and the road of course is
highest in the middle, the sides s1oping
transversely about an inch to the yard.
Matchmaking is the rule of construc-
ton, except for the towns, and the layer
OF broken stones is usually placed direct
ly on the beaten ground, though some
times a layer of sand or stones inter
venes to help the drainage.
To the removal of old material, worn
and wasted by use, the French give
great attention. After their roads are
finished they are carefully rolled by the
compressor, which consists of one or
two heavy cylinders drawn by horses or
propelled by steam. For nearly half a
century the French engineers have gen
orally used on roadways built for
heavy traffic basaltic rock where it
can be had near by. It's cost is about
81 800 for the amount used on a mile Of
road, and MIR. LOOMS says that it is not
only far better but about 80 per cent
cheaper than the crushed granite for
merly so much employed.-New York
