Cost of Olling Roads.

A recently published report of the
Boston park commission is interest
ing. In 1905 twelve miles of road
were treated with oil to keep down
the dust, and the result was so salts
factory that in 1907 the whole extent
OF, more than forty miles was treated
in this way. Mr.. Putnam, the engi-
neer, has carefully calculated the
cost, and he says that the annual
cost of sprinkling a thirty-foot road
way was $489 a mile, whereas the
cost of oiling the same roadway thir-
ty feet wide was 1915. In addition
to laying the dust the %asphaltum in
the oil had a binding effect on the
surface of the road, and very mater
tally lessened the cost for repairs.
The oil is put on in an emulsion in
which fifteen gallons of water is
mixed with 100 gallons Of crude oil,
the whole being agitated to the prop
er point Of emulsion. and then $50
gallons mixed with $50 gallons OF
water and sprinkled on the roads.
The plan has given the very best of
satisfaction in Boston, and might be
tried elsewhere with CORRESPONDENCE

Practical Road Making.

One Of the most popular and prof
table courses given by the University
extension Division of the University
Of Wisconsin is that in highway con-
struction. The purpose OF this course
is to give highway officials, ana OLD
ers who have the responsibility OF
building and maintaining public
roads in the State, an opportunity TO
acquire a thorough and up-to-date
knowledge of the best material and
best methods to be employed IN their
work. Heretofore many OF the OIL
cials charged with road construction
and road maintenance have been
obliged to depend largely upon the
experience of the people IN their OWL
town. These practices and expert
ences are naturally limited. The 10
cal knowledge has not been broad n
complete enough, and enormous sums
of public money have been wasted.
While this course was not given
until January, 1908, the results have
already become apparent In many
parts of the State in the better use OF
the money given for highway con-
struction. Citizens and public OIL
Gals of Wisconsin who have charge
of the work of making roads in the
State are taught without fee, and are
charged only the bare cost OF the ma
terials which are used in co%rrespon-
dence, amounting to but seventy-flve
cents. The course consists OF sixteen
lessons.
After discussing the primary con-
sideration Of proper road location.
road building is taken up. Under this
head are considered three elements
which enter into the making OF a road
foundation, drainage and surface.
These three things are very thor
oughly studied. Road maintenance
is also very carefully studied. A
searching study is made of the vari-
ou7 kinds of road machinery-po1nts
Of efficiency and economy in general
as we'll as the merits and dement's
Of any particular machine. When
one consideres the enormous sum OF
money that has been wasted in Wis
| consin In the building of roads and
| the other wastages which have re.
suited from bad roads. it seems diff.
| cult to estimate the value of this d.
rect and practical method Of aiding
the people Of the State. 1t is but an
| other illustration, however, of the di.
rect and efficient ways in which the
university is endeavoring to help the
people of the State, upon whom it has

bers of the Post and the Department
of the Potomac declare they are going
to lose no opportunity to boost Col. Nc

Col. McElroy has been for % years
the editor of the organ of the Grand

"He is Past Senior Vice Commander

Col. McElroy was first a member of

"One of the more notable achieve

The other Washington papers refer
to the unanimous Endorsements that
Comrade McElroy is receiving from the

Wartime WOnen.

Polly Smith, Joplin, Mo-. says that
she sent her sweetheart into the army,
as her father would not consent to their
marriage then. She put in her time
caring for the sick in Hospital No. 2, at
Danville. She picked lint, rolled band
ages, read to the sick and wrote their
letters. Her sweetheart came back
once to see her, and she was very proud
of the Captains straps that he had
earned, Alas! this was their last inter-
view, for he was killed at Nashville
Her only brother was an officer on the
staff of Gen. Thomas. She was wild
with grief. and did not have the COM
fort of bearing her lovers name. After
her fathers death and when she was
then 40 years old she married o veteran,
and spent all she had in caring for him.
He lived Is years, when she was again
alone and got IS q month pension. She
lived alone three years, and married
again to better herself. but did not do
so. for her husband was only spared a
few months. Now she is old, alone and
destitute. but she hopes that the Gov
ernment will pass q law which will do
Justice to such women as she.
