OF Great Value In improving High
ways When Mixed With Lime.
Molasses mixed with lime and oil is
being experimental with by the United
States department of agriculture In
roadmaking, and this combination
promises to prove Of great value in
bettertng the highways In certain sec
tions of the country.
Last fall the experts of the United
States department of agriculture made
several experiments on the streets of
Newton, Mass. One that attracted no.
tice on the part of authorities on street
construction and no little ridicule was
what was dubbed the "molasses road"
The street commissioner selected q
difficult piece of road on Summit
street with steep grade and sharp
curve-just the spot for quick destruc-
tion of road by the automobile and
heavy traffic and an equally advanta-
geous place for observation of the eff
feet of the strong wind.
A preparation of molasses, lime and
oil was mixed with a small amount of
cement and spread on the surface hot.
The liquid In the mixture percolated to
the substratum Of rock and made a
surface of from two to three inches of
heavy binding material. That section
has passed the tests of winter, and to-
lay the surface is so hard that consid.
erable force is required to dent 1t with
plckax.
1t is not slippery. 1t gives firm
'ooting for horses, and automobiles do
lot skid. On this section of Summit
itreet are located fine residences and
large school for girls. and today,
With the windows open. no Irritating
PARTICLES Of dirt are driven into the
Iwellings.
ANY one who takes a look at Sum-
nit street is not likely to gibe at the
molasses road" 1t is said to be less
xpensive than street watering.

EXPERIMENTAL ROAD AT CLINTON, WIS.
LAYING TOP COURSE.
inches of the loose material had been
rolled to solid bed eight inches thick.
During the rolling process water was
sprinkled on the different layers Of
stone to help cement the stone togeth-
er and thereby make perfect surface
for traffic. When the road was COM
pleted as far as the coarser stone and
rolling were concerned layer of sift-
1ngs from the crusher was spread
evenly over the surface of the road
and alternately rolled and sprinkled
until no more could be worked into the
roadbed either by sprinkling or rolling.
The surface of the road reached that
point of perfection In building where
neither siftings nor water could be
forced into it. The finishing of the
earth shoulders, which are six feet
wide on each side of the stont drive
way, with just enough slant to carry
off all surface water and leave a good
earth road on either side made the
road complete and gives us a twenty
four foot road Of earth and stone.
