Good Roads Investigations at Ames

Extensive work by Civil Engin-
eering Department graduates in de-
mand.
During the past year Messrs. A.
B. Chattin and E. Mcclure of the
Civil Engineering Department of
the Iowa State College at Ames have
been conducting Investigations of
Iowa roads to supply the lack of
definite data upon which to base
plans for road improvement. The
department will shortly issue a bull
letin giving the results and also
giving some general advice regard
ing the care of earth roads and the
construction of hard roads. In
three townships in different parts of
the state, house to house canvasses
have been made to ascertain the ex-
act amounts of various kinds of pro.
duce hauled to market, the cost of
hauling, and the amount of other
traffic. In Jefferson township, Ma
haska county, the average distance
to market was found to be GA miles,
the average number of tons hauled
to market per year per quarter Sec
ton was 1916, the average cost of
hauling one ton one mile was 2l.S
cents, and on the average each farm
er, in addition to hauling his pro-
duce to market, travelled 1190 miles
per year in trips to and from town
with light loads. With hard roads
the cost of hauling could be reduced
one half, and the financial value of
good roads for the light traff1c'would
also be large.
also made many tests of the force
10 1o 4. 4
kinds of roads and under different
conditions Of weather, the results of
which will be given in full in the
bulletin. The advantages of drain
age were shown by the fact that dur.
ing the muddy season this spring
the resistance on tile drained earth
road was only 125 to IA lbs. per ton,
while at the same time on undrained
roads it ran as high as ass to 593 lbs.
per ton.
A record of the prices of various
kinds of farm produce for a year
and the corresponding condition of
the roads has also been kept.
The Departments gives regular and
thorough instruction in Road En-
cheering each year to large class
of men, who will be available to
direct road work in Iowa. So far,
however, the demand for gradua tes
of the Civil Engineering Depart
ment to fill high salaried positions
in other lines has been greater than
the supply, and Iowa must offer
these men inducements to secure
them. Each year large number
of the undergraduates, even, secure
good positions at civil engineering
work for the summer. Already manv
offers have been made students for
the summer.
The road investigation work will
be greatly extended in the future,
and the cooperation of the U. S.
Department. Of agriculture has been
received for the construction OF a
section of model road at Ames.
