denly dispelled. The Offering was sung
AT the familiar words:
"Let your light 80 shine before men,

"Lay not up for yourselves treasures

The President went to his pocketbook,

WE are in receipt of Farm Bulletin
No. So issued from the U. S. Department
Of Agriculture. 1t treats Of good roads
for farmers and contains some valuable
information on road construction. Mr..
Maurice o. Eldridge Assistant Director,
Once of Road Inquiry, is the author.
He says:
can essential feature OF good road is
good drainage and the principles OF good:
drainage remain substantially the same
whether the road be constructed of
earth, gravel, shell, stones or asphalt.
The first demand for good drainage is to
attend to the shape of road surface
This must be crowned" or rounded up
toward the center, 30 that there may be
a fall from the center to the sides, thus
compelling the water to flow rapidly
from the surface into the cutters which
should be constructed on one or both
sides and from there in turn be dis
charged into larger or more open chan
mails. Furthermore, it is necessary that
no water be allowed to flow across a
roadway; culverts, tile, stone, or box
drains should be provided for that pur-
pose"
When it is known that %, 900 tons OF
water fall on each mile of road every
year it will readily be seen, how import
ant the matter Of drainage is in the con-
struction Of good permanent roads. We
will say for our supervisor Mr.. Boiler
that he has this idea we'll in hand and is
working along these lines and 80 far as
we are. able to judge is doing excellent
work.
