ROAD MAKING.
WORK OF THE MARYLAND GEO.
LOGICAL SURVEY.

Cecil County Will Profit by the Expert
ments IL Good Road Making Now Going
On.-Improvement of Roads Through
out the State.
Not only in Cecil county has the construc-
tion OF good roads become subject OF in
tense interest," but generally throughout the
State and the laboratory Of the Maryland
Geological Survey is now busily engaged in
experimental tests on the various substances
OF this State which are recommended as hes t
adapted to serviceable road building These
tests, under the direction OF DR.. W. B. Clark
are being pushed in conjunction with the
work CT gathering and compiling information
relative to the general subject of road con-
struction in Maryland.
The survey has already received replies
from many of the counties In answer to the
interrogatories sent out in circular forms to
the boards OF commissioners Nearly all the
Eastern Shore counties have evinced live
interest in the projected undertaking, and
have punctually provided all the data re-
IucStcu ny III. OidCk au his corps.
The circular letters issued by the survey
were intended, when properly filed out by
the county commissioners, to form the basis
for future practical planning on the part OF
the expert corps. This planning is expected
to consist mainly OF an elaborate and sug-
gestive report, which, when submitted to the
next legislature, will be the tangible argu-
msnt to support some definite and substantial
action in the direction OF good road building.
This object Of the surveys present expert
Dlents 10 to determine for each OF the coun-
ties two important points. One is: What
material is best suited to the individual
county for road construction? The other is.
What material can each county use with the
bs-t results at the cheapest cost?
The Information forwarded to the survey
in accordance with the interrogatories sent
out will make possible an easy solution of
this double problem. In fact. that same in
formation will be the nucleus from which
will be elaborated the legislative report
That report will first deal with all the various
lines of road construction on general prin-
ciples, and will then take up the list of coun-
ties aud each of the characters OF material
and treat them specifically.
