Curtin will begin work at once, and
will have the reservoir and canal com
pleted by May, 1910. The entire
system is to be modern in every re-
spect. Two or three companies of
surveyors are already at work in the
valley mapping the land and laying
out the roads. Several hundred acres
of this land has already been sold at
$500 per acre and will be SET out to
high grade commercial orchards in
the spring of 1910.
What this work will mean to the
Silt-Antlers district cannot be over
estimated Thousands of acres of
fine sagebrush land. the best fruit
soil in the world, will soon be grow
ing the big red apple"
The Silt-Antlers district lies in the
famous Upper Grand valley and is
traversed by the two great trans
continental railways. the Denver &
Rio Grande and Colorado Midland
and probably has the largest number
of acres of red sagebrush soil in one
body of any one tract on the western
slope.
Directly across the river from this
district is the Divide creek and Mann
creek tracts, with upwards of 80, 600
acres of fine sagebrush soil. These
tracts are largely under water and
cultivation now, while plans are be-
ing prosecuted to bring every acre
under water. All of the land in both
districts is of the very best and will
grow in abundance any crop, and is
peculiarly immune from late and
early frosts, so that any kind of fruit
can be grown without the use of the
smudge pot.

TOP SOIL ROAD, ATHENS, GA.
(From Good Roads Magazine, New York;
pose. 1t was observed in Clark county
that where the top soil consisted of
mixture of sand, gravel and clay
the sand and gravel had been drawn
toward the surface and Incorporated
with the clay during cultivation.
The road is located and graded in
the same manner as for gravel or
macadam. The foundation is then
shaped with road machine and
slightly crowned in the center after
which a layer of suitable top soil is
spread to width of about sixteen
feet and q depth Of about ten inches
in the center and three or four inches
at the sides. The next step is to open
up the side bitches with road ma
chine. The earth from the bitches is
thrown up against the bed of top soil
as shoulder.
The road machine is then used to
level off the surface and to give it the
proper slope from the center to the
side bitches. The road is now thrown
open to traffic and soon packs down
into hard, dry surface. If rainy
weather occurs during the spreading
of the material or soon after so much
the better. Wet weather and heavy
traffic assist in the mixing and pud-
ding process. After this process has
continued until the surface soil is thor
oughly mixed the road is dressed and
AI l;.rl, \ Il
This treatment is continued until the
surface is well hardened and all soft
or uneven spots are removed.
To get the best top soil along any
particular road hand samples are TAX
en- and examined before the work is
begun. Samples of uniform size are
selected and the percentage of gravel,
sand and clay ascertained by washing
out the clay and sitting out the sand.
The sample which appears to have
about the right proportion of sand,
gravel and clay is selected. From 10
to % per cent of clay appears to be
sufficient for binding material.
Aside from the grading. these top
soil roads cost from $3.50 to $500 per
mile. The road shown in the photo
graph was so bad the winter before
1t was improved that the traffic was
forced into the adjacent woods and
cotton fields to avoid the deep ruts
and mudholes. Although the road had
just passed through hard winter and
had been subjected to much heavy
hauling. the photograph shows that
now it Is not only free from ruts and
mudholes. but thHt it is hard and

THE CASE OF GUERRE THE TOP SOIL ROAD.
Details of Method Which Origi-
mated In Clark County, Ga.
MATERIAL IN FIELDS TAKEN.

Soil Used Must Have Enough Sand or
Gravel and Clay to Resist Action of
Traffic and Weather Cost From
$3.50 to $500 Per Mile.
ton which was recently evolved in
Clark county, Ga. is called the top
soil method. because 1t consists of
building the road out of the surface
soil from the adjacent fields. In some
respects it is like the sand-clay meth
cd, while in others it is similar to the
gravel road. So far as the writer is
aware. Clark county, Ga, enjoys the
distinction of having originated this
method. The details were worked out
by Professor G. NJ. Strain of Georgia
university and Clark county's com
missioner of deeds.
The success of this method depends
largely upon the soil used Just any
soil will not do. 1t must have enough
sand or gravel in 1t to resist the action
of the traffic and weather and enough
clay to bind the particles together. IT
is we'll known that. although clay has
high cementing value. 1t will not
make good road if used alone on ac-
count of the fact that when it is wet
it absorbs moisture and softens. 1t
is also well known that round, water
worn gravel or sand which is clean
and free from clay will not produce a
satisfactory road surface because nei-
ther will bind. but if clay. gravel and
sand are mixed together in certain
proportions they have been found to
produce surface which will be both
hard and smooth the year round.
If these materials can be found al.
ready mixed the trouble and expense
of mixing can be avoided. 1t is com
mon practice throughout the United
States TO use bank gravel for road sur
facing which has little clay in it.
but Clark county is the first l be-
lieve, to skin the top soil from the
adjacent fields and use it for this pur-
