Points on Road Construction.

That famous roadbuilder, John LOU
den MacAdam, who was instrumental
in improving so many Of the highways
Of England and Scotland had very
sound ideas on the formation of a
solid roadbed. He defined a road as
an artificial flooring, forming strong,
smooth, solid surface, capable of car.
rying the greatest weight, over which
carriages may pass without meeting
any impeachment. He asserted that
the following principles are true and
acted thereon in all his work:
It is the native soil that generally
supports the weight of traffic. While
the soil is in dry state it will carry
any weight without sinking; that this
native soil must be rendered quite dry

At the sugar bowl, Carrie fell Imply

by thorough draining from all
underwater and that a covering i'm.
penetrable to rain must then be
placed over it to preserve it in dry
state; that the thickness of this COW
ering should only be enough to make
it impervious without reference to it's
own power of carrying weight. This
covering must be made of clean, dry
stone, broken into small fragments,
each not exceeding six ounces in
weight, or about the size of a pigeons
egg, which must be prepared and laid
so as to unite by it's own angles into
firm, compact impenetrable body.
To do this care must be taken to ex-
clude from the stone earth, clay, sand,
chalk or other matter that will hold
or conduct water. A road built on this
plan, compacted by travel, perfectly
excludes water, and therefore cannot
be affected by frost. The thickness
Of the layer of stone should never be
less than seven inches nor more than
ten inches, and the surface should be
made nearly fiat, never having a great
er slope from the center towards the
sides than at the rate of one inch for
each five feet, which will readily carry

While some of the principles advo-
Gated by MacAdam are not strictly
adhered to in the best modern con.
