One Of the beneficial results OF the
American occupation Of Cuba has been
the establishment Of an adequate sys-
tenn Of roads and the beginning OF
construction. These roads are built
primarily for the marketing Of crops,
but they are used extensively by au-
tomoblles as well. They are made uni
formly thfrty-four feet wide. with six
teen feet Of macadam in the center.
The surface finishing is placed on a
foundation Of ten inches Of broken
rock, and they have no grades greater
than 6 per cent. Bridges are of steel,
culverts Of concrete. bitches are dug
IN the low places, and the roadway Is
generally elevated above the level OF
the contiguous land. The main road is
complete from Havana to San Girls
tobal and from Pinar del Rio to Es-
peranza. besides numerous short
branches.

made an exceedingly heavy load for
strong draft team. A good carriage team
required much urging to pull the carriage
faster than q walk
After the grading was completed and
the roadbed was well formed where Ills
were required the entire road, one-fourth
mile in length and thirty feet wide. was
plowed to a depth of about four and one
half inches and thoroughly pulverized
with a harrow ana disk. A disk. set
straight, was run before the oil sprin-
king tank to open small burrows, and a
harrow followed the Oil sprinkling tank to
thoroughly mix the soil and oil.
The oilng was done the first days OF
October. The oil was not heated. The
tank of 500 gallons would cover about
$500 square yards once The harrow fol-
lowed each application. When one gallon
to each square yard had been applied
the soil seemed nearly saturated to the
depth Of the blowing, four and one-half
inches. After narrowing the last time q
heavy float was used to smooth the sur
face. In q week the road was sufficiently
Arm to allow rolling twelve ton roller
was used, going over the road several
times until it seemed to be thoroughly
firm. After a week the road was used by
all kinds Of traffic. 1t was firm. but not
hard. A sharp shod horse left the calk
marks plainly outlined but did not tear
up the soil even when driven at quick
trot.
One reason for building the road In the
fall was to note the effect Of free2ing
weather. The road was not seriously af-
fected 1t seemed that the coating OF
oiled soil kept the underlying soil sutil-
ciently dry to prevent serious heaving by
frost.
MIR. Dickens ended the report by
saying that the road Is In good condi-
ton. Under his direction roads also
were built near the Agricultural col
lege in black loan; at Maple HILL In
the Mill creek valley, in soil known as
"gumbo;" at Garden City, in 'as bad
a stretch of road as can be found any
where" being Of sand, which absorbed
the oil In places to depth of sixteen
inches, and the race track at Man
haitian which was said to have been
improved so much that a widely
known trainer of horses, c. b. Mi
chael, terms it a first class training
track"
The cost of the roads varied from
500 to 81. 800 a mile, Mr.. Dickens re-
ported. The average cost of Il road
eighteen feet wide, three miles from
the railroad delivering the oil, is
placed by Mr.. Dickens at $500.
The oil used for roadmaking pur
poses cmbodies quantity Of asphalt.
The California oil is best for the pur-
pose. Texas oil ranks next, with Kan
sas third. The eastern oils have a
base largely parallin. They must be
treated and asphalt added to make
them useful in roadmaking.
With proper construction and the
use OF oil as IL binder for dirt and mac
adam roads the farmers virtually may
have asphalt roads past their homes.

road construction.-Kan City Star.

the oil. An area equal to 1.O10.06O
square yards was oiled. The cost OF
oiling per square yard was slightly
more than ! cent, representing the oil,
labor and supplies. The oil subdued
dust. Had the same area been sprin-
killed. with water to prevent dust the
cost would have been "a cents per
square yard Mr.. Dunn estimated
that the cost Of sprinkling the area
oiled last summer would have been
$16,2O732. The expense Of oiling
this area was $1O671.44. The direct
saving in using oil was $5,5SS.SS. or "a
per cent. The indirect belefit follow
ed in marked saving In the cost Of
maintaining the boulevards and the
uniform excellence of their condition.
Good roads naturally are rural
problem In the cities no progress can
be made unless the thorOughfares used
for business and pleasure are paved
and maintained In good condition.
Country towns are concerned as much
with good roads as are the farmers
who use them. In country towns bust
ness practically is ut a standstill In
rainy seasons Bad roads keep the
farmers at home. II the farmer had II
fit thoroughfare to the village he could
do his trading on days when he could
do no tasks in the fields. 1t is far
more desirable that the farmer should
| visit his nearest town in the rainy
season than at any other time. as the
commodities he has to sell command
the highest prices when rain keeps him
| at home.
The regents of the Kansas State Ag
ricultural college were among the first
of the governors of agricultural col
leges in the United States to realize
the vital concern which good roads are
to farmers. Not only was there the
feature of poor roads following rain
but there was the every day feature
of ruts, pools and poor roadbed gen
orally.
The college board of regents named
Albert Dickens to take charge Of eN
detrimental road work in Kansas. Mr.
Dickens selected fourth of Il mil,

ROADMAK|NG WITHHOLD
Method of Construction Valuable
For Dirt and MacaGam.
PRACTICALLY SELF HEALING.

Oiled Highways Are Not Only DustIess
Mudless and NoiseIess, but They Inn
provo With Use-OiI Makes Roads
Firm, but Not Hard.
In the opinion Of II. L. Smell, who
has made study of city and country
roads in twenty states in the last year,
more good roads will be built in Kan
sas during the next twelve months
than in any other state in the Union.
Mr.. Smell Investigated road conditions
for the Standard on company. The
big trust Is seeking market for Its
surplus Of oil left after the more val
liable products have been taken from
1t. The surplus oil is now sold chiefly
for fuel.
THE company expects to build Il
mile Of good road near the State Agri-
cultural college ut Manhattan, Kan.,"
Mr.. Smell said. I'VE expect to show
by the experiment that an oiled road,
whether built with earth or crushed
rock, is not only the most durable, but
in the end is the most economical.
"In every state there is annually
spent millions of dollars in building
new roads. In few cases is any con
siderable sum spent on the roads to
preserve them. Oiled roads are not
only dustless, mudless and noiseless,
but they are practically self healing
that is. they improve with use. The
dirt and oil roads give horses good
footing, while the tires of the vehicles
iron cut the hoof marks"
Experiments made on Kansas City
boulevar,ls and on roads in Jackson
county. which We're coated with oil,
have been watched by men and or
CARNATIONS interested in good roads.
The Use of oil on boulevards and roads
in Jackson county was among the ear
lier experiments in its use. Adopted
for use 10 prevent dust, it was found
that oil also is a preservative. In his
report to the board of park commits
