The Paving Question.
Record:

Is there not another solution of thii
problem, tina has not been publicl,
suggested-a good one, n a fal
cheaper one? l think so. 1t is the,plar
adopted in California for the suburbs
of large cities, for many business
streets, and for unnumbered miles OF
country roads. 1t has been tried there
for years, and gives most satisfactory
results, IT IS THE CRUDE OIL
PLAN. On a well built and nicely sur
faced road bed of similar soils to
ours, a heavy crude oil is sprayed, by
a common street sprinkler, in sever
al successive applications, with light
gravel spread on the oil, and at the
right time rolled.
Three Or four or five successive
treatments, using in all perhaps about
two inches of gravel in depth, inc
about two quarts of the Oil to the
square foot. This, well applied and
soaked into the soil will make about
a four inch statum of soil sand and
gravel, thoroughly permeated with
the heavy asphaltum like oil.
This composition makes a very du-
rable road bed. 1t looks and feels like
the present surface of Main Street
where the wagon travel has produced
a hard, sidney, elastic surface, which
day would be better than any brick
or macadam pavement. The California
pavement is very durable, is entire
ly impervious to water; is easy on
get muddy and never get dusty;
and will cost but a small fraction of
the amount that good macadam- or
brick pavements will cost.
| think this is a practical plan.
We have the gravel All the sand with
can buy the heavy oil needed laid
down here at about 81 cents a gal
lon.
Main Street is 80 feet wide, from
curb to curb. According to statements
made to me in California, n AZ gal
barrel of oil will treat one lineal
of Main Street. And this pave
makes as good a gutter as it
does street. This is n dollar and a
half, or seventy-five cents per front
foot, for the oil.
Let us say hat the gravel inc the
will cost as much more-this
is my guess only-scarcely ar esti-
we have a total cost of
A dollar and a half per front foot
for HI finished street, gutter and
ngs.
The numbered streets should be
the same way for one or two
blocks, or as far as business buildings
ire likely soon to be built. They are
)ut half the width. Beyond this, and
IN all residence streets a 20 foot
way in the center of each
street, will meet all needs. The space
outside of this, to the side walks,
should be set in bermuda grass, which
care of itself, keeps down
weeds, forbids 9th dust and mud,
md is a joy forever to the foot and
we. This residence street treatment
will cost somewhere around a half
lollar per front foot.
Imagine how our city would look
when finished up in this fashion.
md it cal be so cheaply done. No
more dust, no more e of street
tprinkling, no more mud, but a con-
tant gladness in looking at and walk
ng through and riding through our
'eautiful, clean, park-like, civilized
ity. Why, one could live a good chris
life in Roswell then. This is not
dream, but a practical possibility.
Why not do it?
Yours truly,
PARKER EARLE.

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
EXPLAINS ITS POSITION
SAYS COUNCIL DOES NOT UNDER.
STAND
Members Still Maintain Map Should
Be Presented With Applications
for Spur Tracks-Not Trying to
usurp Powers

The board of public works feels it
was unjustIy treated by the council
Monday when several councilmen
scored the board for Its recommends
tion on the spur track question.
Monday afternoon the board recon-
mended to the council that all appil-
cants for spur tracks be made to file
map, showing exactly where the
track was to run before a franchise
was granted. This the board explained
was to protect the interests of property
owners living on the street.
When the recommendation was read
it was insinuated that the board was
trying to secure control of the granting
Of spur tracks and thus exceeding the
authority granted 1t by the charter
eve made the mistake Of not explain
ing to the council the reason for the
request" said Mr.. Edwards of the
board of public works yesterday. "Our
sole aim was to prevent repetition OF
an action by the Santa Fe that oc-
Cured last week.
Some time ago we agreed to the
abandonment of a portion of Stephen
son avenue to revert to the Santa Fe,
in consideration of which the Santa Fe
agreed to give the city strip of land
to widen Merrick street. This was
agreeable to the property owners and
this was done. But week ago the
Santa Fe secured franchise from the
council to run a spur track on Mer-
rick street, on the very portion OF the
land that had been dedicated for
widening the street
'I do not believe there was any bad
faith on the part OF the Santa Fe but
1t brought a large number of property
owners before this board to protest.
The trouble seems to have been that
while one department made promises
to us another department, unaware
of these promises. secured the fran
chise on the street. 1 do not think
II was intended to take advantage Of
the city I'm any manner"
Next week the question, which was
again by the council and i'm the mean
time the board will explain the situa-
tion to the various members.
