HOW TOKEEP ROADS.
Perfect Drainage an important F
tor In Preserving High

All experience joins with comn n
sense IN repeating to us that be
only essential condition of a 81 ad
road granting a practical grade b is
drainage, underdrainage and s. y
face drainage, writes Colonel p.
W, McClung in Good Roads. 4 be
surface material is of secondary h
portance. If kept dry, our cob
mon clay makes an ideal roJt.
Above every other conslderatiorFs
the roadbed itself II should be
underdralned so Unat the water eau
not accumulate or remain under
meath. The inequalities of thesur
face, depressions and mudholes are
usually caused by water softenlng
the roadbed. In the spriug the
frost heaves and disintegratess the
road, because the earth below has
been saturated with water. With
thorough underdrainage fro s t
would not disturb the road. There
should be sufficient crown to ihe
road to carry the water at o2ce t9
the-dltches. Iha tiles for
drainage may be laid below The 6Sft
tom Of the bitches, with intakes at
proper distances and q free dis
charge at the first natural water
course. In this way roads will be
thoroughly drained, and the water
will run off without washing the
road sides.
With a properly constructed bed
Il good and durable road Is assured.
Even if no road metal is used, the
road will be excellent nlne months
Of the year and passable at all
times.
But a road to be good at all
times must have covering Of metal
Of some kind. In this part of the
work the same object ought to be
kept III yiew-namely, to get rid of
the water, to keep the road dry.
Broken stone, gravel and similar
materirl are not necessary for q
wearing surface. The clay beneath
will sustain any load put on 1t il it
can be kept dry. The only intelli-
gent purpose of using road metal
is to put a roof oyer the road. This
requires a sloop to discharge the
water directly, and Il close, COM
/ pact covering to prevent water from
sinking into the earth.
1t is not at all necessary to use a
great thickness of road metal.
Thousands of miles of the best coun-
try roads lasting indefinitely have
been made with but three, four and
five inches Of macadam. But the
foundation was properly construct
ed, smooth. compact and well drain
ed.
Indeed the road is the bet. ..SG0r
lighter coating Of road metal, be-
cause it will then retain some of the
elasticity of the undertaking clay,
so desirable for horses and vehicles.
If proper attention were given to
the drainage and construction Of
roadbeds much less metal would be
required, and very little expense
for repairs would be required. Our
roads would be smooth, durable and
elastic. The work of each year
would remain until the country, by
yearly additions, would have abol-
ished bad roads.
