Scraps of soap should never be wasted,
but be carefully collected and put away.
When wanted for washing fannels, etc,
they can be cut in small pieces and
boiled to jelly. Afterwards dilute
with raiEwater, and this will make a
beautiful lather. Small pieces of toilet
soap should be collected and kept by
themselves. Then melt them up again

and streets. A study has been made Of
the different rocks in various localities and
the information thus obtained will be
steadily added to by the department. A
machine for testing paving bricks is to
arrive shortly from Philadelphia factory
and tests will be made Of all samples Of
brick submitted by cities or towns for
street payements. Absorption tests to de-
termine the amount of water taken up by
paving brick will be made, and another
machine will be manufactured shortly TO
determine the transverse strength.
The first official work of the depar tment
in testing paving brick will be made
shortly for Baltimore city upon its brick
and macadam material.
ROADS OF THE STATE.
The examination of Maryland roads was
made by Mr.. A. n. Johnson highway ex-
pert, who has inspected about $500 miles
of county roads in considerable detail.
Something less than half of the main roads
at present are either shell, gravel or stone,
the remainder being simply the soil of the
locality where they are found. To the
north and west of Baltimore are found
trap rocks, which make the most lasting
roads. About Hagerstown and Frederick
are found the limestone roads, which
make a smooth surface, but become dusty
Roads stoned with uartz rocks are gener-
ally rough, and hard rock does not macada-
mize well with light travelling.
The southern counties, during the last
few years, have improved many of their
roads-Prince Georges and Charles coun-
ties especially. In all these southern
counties is found in abundance a gravel
that cannot be eXcelled as a road material.
About one-quaIter of the roads on the
Eastern shore are made Of sandy soil, the
remainder being clay and sandy clay.
Nearly every county is amply provided
with good natural road metals, with the
exception of some of the Eastern Shore
counties.
The Highway Division is supported by
the State, and no charge is made for its
services. The money at hand for making
surveys and estimates is limited, but
every effort will be made to comply with
all reasonable requests, either from County
Commissioners or other persons wishing to
improve public roads.

PLANS FOR

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Of
FERS AID TO COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS.
Test of Highway Materials Those For
Surfacing ana Paving of County Roads
and City Streets Scientifically Treated.

The Highway Division OF the Maryland
Geological Survey is actively at work I'M
der the direction of Professor Clark, the
State geologist, and DR.. II. T. Reid; the
chief of the Highway Division, in organi2.
ing its work for the coming season.
An important volume was prepared dur
ing the past year and laid before the mem
hers of the last Legislature, in which the
advantages of good roads and the means
NJ obtaining them were clearly set forth
This report has attracted the wide atten-
t;on Of highway experts throughout the
country and extended reviews have ap-
noared in the public press and in scientific
journals both III this country and abroad
OFFER TO COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
The Geological Survey sent last week
to the Boards of County Commissioners Of
the various counties a letter in which it
calls the attention Of the boards to the
opportunities which are open to them to
secure the aid of the Maryland Geological
Survey in preparing plans for highway
construction and improvement. Two sets
of forms are forwarded to the board, the
first for a preliminary examination, on
which rough estimate of the cost of the
proper improvement of the road can be
made. A second form is also inclosed for
a detailed survey. This is to be made by
frpp Df
the counties after the County Commission
ers have decided to undertake the improve
ment on the basis Of the estimate Furnished
in the preliminary examination.
The letter also calls attention to the
facilities which the survey has for making
tests of the different materials in use for
the surfacing and paving of the roads and
streets both of the counties and cities OF
the State
INFORMATION AT HAND.
The Highway Division Of the survey is
Athe present time in possession OF large
mount of information regarding the high
@y conditions of Maryland, and it is
ANXIOUS to place itself in touch with those
ohtals of the State who have the highway
mav,rs in charge and feels that it is IN
position to be OF great value to the counties
in theludicious expenditure OF the cou nty
funds, II simply desires to act in an
advisory capacity when called upon by
the county authorities.
Other letters will be sent to the loca
press and to farmers organizations through
out the State, and it is hoped through
these means to arouse the intelligent in
terest Of those people of the State who arr
most interested in good roads in securing
an Improvement in the present methods o.
highway construction.
