ROLLING TAMPER.
Curious Machine For Preparing
Road For Oil.

Road For Oil.
A new and curious kind of roller or
trolling tamper" has been devised for
use with q type Of road invented and
used In California. This road has been
called. from the place where 1t origl-
mated. the Santa Monica system and Is
little more than an oiled road In which
the oil is caused to penetrate deeply IN
stead Of being merely spread over the
top. The top soil is loosened to
depth of several inches, so that the Oil
when applied may penetrate for quite
4 distance below the surface. The
earth thus oiled is then rolled and
thoroughly compacted and practically
forms an inferior kind Of asphalt paw
Ing.
From the circumference of a large
roller project q considerable number
of tamping points, and the erect OF
this Is to compact the soil from the
bottom upward, these points sinking
into the depth Of the loosened earth
and rising nearer and nearer to the
surface as the bottom layers become
contracted, until finally the tamping
point sinks but a little distance into
the surface OF the roadway, says the
Municipal Journal and Engineer. In
using this method of road construction
the earth is plowed to depth of about
six inches and Is properly surfaced
with a road machine, the clods or
Jumps having first been broken up
with a harrow or similar machine.
Asphaltic oil is then sprinkled over
the roadway, the endeavor being to
give about one gallon Of oil to each
square yard and the oil and earth are
then thoroughly mixed by cultlvator,
after which the roller tamping begins
This process Of oiling and tamping Is
repeated three times, until each square
yard has received about three gallons
Of oil, when the surface Is smoothed
down by the use Of an ordinary roller.
In the construction Of reservoir EN-
bankments in India the British engi
neers substituted for the roller, which
