EARTH ROADS.

For earth roads, there is little to be
said. They should be tolerated only in
a country where there is absolutely
nothing but earth of which to make
them. Yet with earth alone passable
road can be made and maintained, if
thoroughly rolled and drained and the
surface kept in proper condition.
Whenever the subgrade soil is found
unsuitable, it should be removed and
replaced with good material rolled to a
bearing. On the prepared subgrade
the earth should be spread, narrowed il
necessary, and rolled 10 bearing.
When the earth is brought up to the
final height it is again narrowed, then
trimmed by means of road Jewelers. or
road machines, and ultimately rolled to
hard and smooth surface. The finish
ing touches to the road surface should
be given by the heaviest roller at hand.
Before the earth road is open to traffic
the side bitches should be cleaned an6
left with the drain thing in good work
ing order.

as much as he can on we'll made earth
road, while on hard and smooth stone
road he can pull four times as much.
Consequently, where we have good
gravel roads, instead Of earth ones, it is
possible to make one horse do the work
of two, while on stone roads one horse
will do the work Of four. After a road
has been properly located. graded and
drained, the important qualities OF
hardness and smoothness should by al
means be secured. The various sur
faces for good country roads will bt
considered in the following order: earth
gravel and stone.

GRAVEL ROADS.

GRAVEL ROADS.
Where good packing gravel is easily
obtained, satisfactory road can be
made by covering the prepared surface
for a greater or less depth with this ma
teriai. Blue gravel or hardpan and
clean bank gravel when properly mixed
and placed, gives surface almost like
concrete in hardness
Rounded or water worn gravel should
never be used for the surfacing of roads,
IA such gravel remains loose and shift
ing, like materials In shaken seive.
For the wearing surface gravel should
be comparatively clean. hard, angular
and tough. Such gravel is easily con
solidated, and will not readily pulverize
into dust and mud.
The foundation for stone and gravel
roadsare too often neglected. 1t is well
to remember that without a durable
foundation there is no durable road.
The cross section of the foundation
should conform to that of the finished
road. and ehould be so thoroughly rolled
that wagons passing over it make no
perceptible impression. A layer Of
gravel not less than inches nor more
than 6 inches in thickness should then
be spread on, sprinkled thoroughly, and
Next, spread another layer of the best
gravel available over the the surface To
depth of not exceeding 4 inches. 1t is
again sprinkled and rolled until the de.
sired hardness and smoothness are OBJ.

most important piece of machinery con,

ing of roads, and it is we'll to remember
that It cannot be used to often, espec
tally in the spring, when the frosts and
rains are 80 destructive.
STONE ROADS.
The advantages to be derived from
good stone roads are so manifold tina
all other material should be discarded
where tough road stone is available TO
the construction and maintenance Blu
it is greater economy to use earth 0
gravel than to go to the expense o
macadamizing roads with too soft, to
brittle or rotten material. The evil
resulting from improper construction
of stone roads are even greater tina
those from the use of improper mater
ials John L, Macadam never intende
that heterogeneous conglomeratio
of stone and mud should be called
macadam road. Neither did he inten
that the same should be applied I
roads constructed of large and sma
stones mixed together and spread upo
the surface The surface of roa
built in this manner is constantly di
turbed by the larger stones, whic
work to the surface and are knocke
hither and thither by the wheels of v,
hicles and the feet of animals.
PROPER CONSTRUCTION OF ROADS.
Broken-stone roads may be divide
into two classes-macadam and telfort
The principal difference between thes
two constructions is as to the prophet
