Tho Farmer and the CITY Man.

Did you ever notice the differentia.
ton Of city and country boys? A city
boy of ten is thin and bony as n shad.
There is not an ounce of unnecessary
flesh on his body, and he appears to be
about ready to die. The country lad
of hat age, on the contrary, appears
plump and rosy, the picture of health.
Look at the boys twenty years later.
They have changed places. The city
man is plump and bubbling with
health and fat. while the once
plump country boy is a lank,
worn farmer, apparently half starved.
And he really is. Not that he
has not had plenty to eat every day.
for he has. lie has reveled in pork and
molasses, pancakes and vegetables, all
of the finest quality. but they have not
been taken properly. They nave been
SO proportional hal they were only so
much fodder, and he failed to extract
the n~ouriShment hat was in them. lie
has starved, though abundantly fed,
while the city boy, though perhaps often
hungry. has had the advantage of scicn-
tific cooking and has grown fat on a light
diet. At fifty the boys present still
more strongly marked contrast, and it
is all due to the way of feeding. Most
of the country people waste half their
food by not eating it properly. -Cincin

FARM AND GARDEN.
REPAIRING A ROAD.
A Task Which Is Almost rs Important rs
Its First Construction.

A Task Which Is Almost rs Important rs
Its First Construction.
The chief work of the architect and
the engineer is to devise means to de.
prive water of its power to destroy.
Notwithstanding this plain fact,
there are very few roads constructed
with reference to it. They are usually
constructed without underdrainage,
generally with a fiat surface, and often
with very imperfect bitches. The wa
ter lies on the surface, to soak the road
bed into the condition Of a sponge or a
mortar bed, to course along the road
way, scoring great cutters, AMI disin-
tegrating the road material. Often the
water from adjoining fields is allowed
to run into the road, so that the high
way becomes n drainage ditch for the
farms. Anyone who will observe our
best roads. after n heavy rain, will see
loose stones, drifted piles of road metal,
cutters in the middle of the road and
all the effects of a miniature food,
that has rushed along the surface, as
if the road had been constructed for a
water course.
In this way we eXpend millions of
dollars in road making and seldom
have 4 good road The work of each
season disappears before the next sum
mer, and the annually recurring round
of repairs begins afrcsh. For this
profligate waste there is no excuse. A
properly constructed roadbed is one of
the most durable works of man. There
is nothing about it to decay, and if the
effect of water is provided against. it
for ages. The we'll defined
earthwOrks scattered over southern
Ohio, the work of prehistoric races"
are Il proof of the indestructible char
of earth entertainments and
mounds when properly located. Even
our savage predecessors had sense
enough to guard their earthworks
against the action of water. Old Roman
constructed two thousand years
ago, are still travelled. The Romans
showed us how to construct good roads.
All experience joins with common
in repeating to us that the only
essential condition of 4 good road
granting a practical grade, is drain

ondary Importance. If kept dry our
common clay makes an ideal road. 1t
is choSHn for race courses because of
1T, excellent qualities. NJ one eve
heard If trying the extreme speed of
horses on maca,am, asphalt or granite
pavement. The less of these the bet
ter for our country roads, provided
they could be kept dry.
Above every other consideration is
the road bed itself. 1t should be under
drained SO that the water cannot aC-
cumulatc or remain underneath. The
inequalities in the surface, drpressions
and mud holes, are usually caused by
water ~softening the road bed. In the
spring the frost hcavcs and diSin-
tcgrates the road. because the earth
below has been soaked with water.
With thorough undcr,irainage frost
would not disturb the road. There
should be sufficient crown to the road
to carry the water at once Ia the
bitches. Better still. the tiles for un-
~derdrainage may be laid below the bot
tom of the bitches. with intakes at
proper distances, and Il free discharge
a. AAN AARA AZ NdAt IL u
this way our roads would he thorough
" drained. and the water would run
off without washing the ROAD sides.
The bitches might be made shallow, so
that there would be no upset" by
Teh!cleS getting out of the road.
The custom of using gravel and stone
of ali sizes except the right size. de
ieats the purpose for which Il covering
is intended. No gravel as large as a
hens egg should evc- be put on a road
1t should be screened and, If the larger
stones are uScJi, they should be crushed.
No stone should ba used larger than
two inches in its largest measurement.
Large gravel stones will never pace.
They work to the surface, make the
road dangerous To horses, and help to
destroy the surface. The same rule
applies to broken stone.
Macadam's rule: IF you put a stone
on the Dad that you can't put into
your mouth, won't pay you a shiI-
ling" is still sound.
The small stones form n compact
solid mass. If laid upon a well-made
foundation, they will wear as.long as
the solid stone.
IT is not at all necessary to use n
great thickness of road metal. Thou
sands of miles of the best country
roads. lasting indefinitely, have been
made with but three, four and five inches
of macadam. But the foundation was
properly constructed smooth, compact,
and well drained.
Indeed, the road is the better for a
lighter coating of road metal. because
it will then retain some of the elias
ITCHY of the underlying clay, So desir-
able for horses and vehicles.
If proper attention were given to the
drainage and construction of roadbcd,
much less metal would be required,
and very little expense for repairs
would be required. Our roads would
be smooth. durable ard elastic. The
work of each year would remain until
the country by yearly additions would
have abolished bad roads-CoL D. "
