Fort Dodge, June 4.-Lou Gagnon, SUI
rerintendent of bridges on the NJ & St.
l.. road, will start to work today with d
force of fifteen men on a most unusual
Undertaking. For years the dirt cuts
thru which the road passes between this
city and Ohio, a distance of fifteen
miles, have been giving the company
trouble by caving and the grades have
washed out to more or less extent
With the coming of the spring rains each
season, causing the anagement great
deal of expense in keeping the track in
shape on this section of the road. The
usual method has been to rip-rap or wall
! up the worst places with old timbers or
stone grades, but this method has
/ proven Intellectual, as such repairs are
of a temporary nature and the work
has to be done frequently. The plan now
to be worked is to burn these places in
much the same way that brick are made,
thus converting the hllsides and grades
where necessary into a solid, flinty,
4 iava-like substance. This Will be ac-
II
some of them twelve feet deep and two
wide, at the bottom. widening enough a,
the top to insure against caving. Ole
bridge ti1nbers will then be cut and lait
4 crosswise of the ditcn near the bottom
4 another layer IS then to be put il
/ iengthwise, and so on until it is nearly
4 full, whenit will be covered over with {
! solid layer of earth. leaving an opening
4 At each end. Here and there between
4 the openings large pieces of tile are in
sorted, which viii act in the capacit,
of chlmneys. The fire will then b.
started and the earth for several fee
away viii become rcd hot, fusing to
gether into one solid piece of bake,
earth. This is no experiment, altho no
i, a common piece Of work. 1t has beel
: tried in a number of places with success
