to discharge that water In the quickest
possible time and In the smallest guam
titles. and when you have done this
you have then put into practice all the
science there is in connection with
road building.
ut is the earth foundation that car
ries the road and not the stone: not
the gravel, not the vitrified brick. The
gravel, stone. bricks, etc, nre simply
put there to resist the wear of the
traffic and TO shed the water from the
an undrained foundation and your
road falls, l don't care II you spend
$4,000 n mile on it. The frost will act
upon that foundation, and the whole
surface Is raised imperceptlbly. When
that frost goes out. especially In north
ern districts, the whole foundation Is
left hOneycOmbed, the surface Is sim
ply crust, and when heavy traffic
comes on the surface Is brok en-, the
road is cracked. 1t holds water, and
these ruts are churned deeper by every
passing team until the road becomes
almost impossible.
Keep the surface smooth. If you do
that and shed the water you have ac-
complished lot. II traffic is lnfre
Nuent during the rainy season an earth
surface can be kept in almost perfect
condition and make a very serviceablc
road. and possibly for quarter of Il
century to come for this country the
best road will be the ordinary earth
road properly cared for.
"You must have classification along
these lines. The earth road must be
made, and made good. Who Is to do
this work? The farmers OF the coun-
try will be satisfied to keep up the
earth roads. If you organize some
simple method by which they can use
these large grading wagons of such un-
questionable service now you have
laid the foundation. Where deeper and
better drainage Is required provide for
1t by deeper bitches and underdrain
age by the use of tile. Beyond this
you must go into the crushing of stone,
and on the principal roads you must so
into the classification of material ship
ped from other states. The farmers
can and will keep up the majority of
the earth roads. but It Is beyond the
capability of the farmers to keep up
the more important and expensive
roads. and II Is unfair and unjust to
ask them to do it,

HIGHWAY BUILDING.
SOME VALUABLE POINTS BY CANA
DA,S DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS.
The Importance of Good Drainage
In Road OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and
Frost Destroy Highways and Make
Them Iu,passable.

AT the late national and information
al good roads convention one of the
most valuable Of the many practical
rxldrcSscS was that of \. w. Campbell.
director If public works of Canada.
Mr.. Campbell is one Of the foremost
road builders of the day. and the fact
that he has had some twenty years of
practical experience carries weight
with his utterances. In discussing the
principles of roadmaking he places
emphasis above all other things on
drainage as of fundamental impor-
lance In fact, he makes drainage Gov
er nll three principles Of roadmaking.
Unless the foundation Is properly
drained the road Is useless. Dirt
roads, he believes, can be made good
by having n proper knowledge of the
way to construct and maintain them.
Mr.. Campbell said In part:
"The science of roadmaking Is the
subject allotted to me. To discuss this
question and 40 into the details Of
road construction and the scientific
treatment of these roads would take
up the rest Of the time Of this con-
vention for the balance Of the week.
But am not going into this subject
In detail. l am simply going to sum 1t
up in very few words and ask you to
make your deductions from that state
ment | think it was ut Buffalo that
a gentleman asked me the question,
What are the principles of roadmak-
mgr l said the principles Of road
making in Its simplest form-ycs, in Its
most complex form-are very briefly
stated. 1t matters not whether the
street lies out in n remote part of your
state or If the other end of 1t rests In
the central part of one Of the greatest
cities on the continent. These prin-
ciples must be considered and utilized
in the construction Of that road or
street IL you are going to make n sue
cess Of 1t. They are three in number
first, drainage; second, drainage; third,
drainage.
"Drnin the foundations. 1t is as use
less and as futile for you to attempt
to build good road without provid
ing n means of draining the fOundn-
ton as 1t Is to erect such building
as this on a weak foundation. You
must drain the foundation. Then shape
your road so as to shed the water from
the surface. Make your bitches along
the sides so as to discharge that way
through outlets into the common
course, and after you have done this
you must so preserve and maintain
that surface as to shed the water at
all seasons of the year from the center
into the bitches and see to 1t that these
bitches are kept free and open so as

CAVALRY HORSES.
English Military Method of Training
Them to Swim.

The most interesting and amusing Of
all the sights OF Aldershot, England, is
the big reservoir, or lake, where cav
airy horses from all parts of the world
are trained to swim with thorough
ness that rivals even the Italian system
of horse training.
1t Is well known. by the way, that
cavalry horses in the Italian army go
through almost as much training as
though they were intended for circus,
and the writer has often been amazed
to see patrician Roman officers riding
their fine chargers down steep flights
Of stone stairs and down especially
constructed precipices which look as
though they were especially invented
to encompass the destruction Of both
horse and rider.
Again, the writer witnessed the as
tonishing army maneuvers of the Ital-
ian troops in the river Arno at Flor
ence and also at Spezzia, the great
naval arsenal of Italy. The Count Of
Turin was seen leading his regiment
"out to sea-" the prince often dis
mounting and himself swimming with
one arm about his chargers neck.
The newly received horses at Alder
shot. however. coming as they do most
ly from inland regions, have deep
seated objection to the water, and as
their riders are for the most part scant-
lily clad indeed the struggles between
tutor and pupils are ludicrous in the
extreme. If it is found absolutely
impossible to coax the animals into
water deeper than their knees or girths
collnpsible boats are used and the re-
fractOry animal dragged by main force
beyond his depth, when he has to swim
for dear life.--H. G. Roberts in Har-
per's Weekly.

THE ROBIN.

He IL an Adaptive Bird, but He
Doesn't Mix Mortar.
The robin is a very adaptive bird GER
tainly. 1t adjusts itself readily to new
conditions, but it falls far short OF the
intelligence that Is often ascribed to it.
Thus there are persons who seem to
believe that when mud Is scarce the
robin will bring water in its beak to
the dust Of the road and so make the
mortar that it needs. This notion Is, of
course, absurd. How could the robin
know that water and dust will make
mud? This knowledge is the result OF
reflection and experiment and Is not
within the reach of an animal. More
than that, il the robin could find the
water he could certainly find the mud
somewhere have known them to use
a substitute for mud furnished by the
cows.
Another equally absurd claim for the
robin comes from a correspondent. A
robin had her nest in a tree under his
chamber window in such position
that he could see oil that happened in
the nest. He says that when the young
robins were nearly grown he saw the
mother bird take them, one by one, by
the mpe of the neck and hold them out
over the rim OF the nest to teach them
to use their wings! suppose ''our
modern school of nature study" would
accept this statement without question.
1t is such preposterous natural history
as this that furnishes the stock in trade
Of this SCHOOL" Some persons deceive
themselves in what they think they
see, and not n few, am convinced, are
deliberate falsifers.-John Burroughs
