Results Of Tests Made Near Harris.
burg, Pa, Of New Methods.
Important changes in the matter Of
state highways are likely
to be made as result of experiments
being conducted by the Pennsylvania
state highway department.. These were
begun two years ago. when it became
apparent that under the stress Of In
creasing automobile traffic the ordi-
nary standard macadam roads could
not be kept in first class condition
without expensive repairs.
The various experiments have been
made in the vicinity of Harrisburg. in
order to be frequently inspected. The
first was a piece of road built on what
is called the penetration system In
1908. Upon the usual foundation was
placed a layer of crushed stone. half
the thickness of that ordinarily used
in macadam construction. and into
the interstices was poured an a.
phaltic oil containing about so per
cent of asphalt The surface of the
road was then covered with dry stone
screenings and the mass rolled. Al
though subjected to heavy traffic for
over year, the road shows but little
evidence of wear and is nearly dustless.

old. so we've been told,

A farmer old, 50 we've been told.
With a team of horses strong
Drove down the road with q heavy load
While singing his merry song.
But his mirth in song was not SO long.
For his horses gave leap
AS he ran amuck in the mud he stuck
Clear up to his axles deep.
Bad roads did it!
And wheelman gay went out one day
For a joyful morning spin.
With the weather bright. his heart wae
light
AS he left the country inn.
But he went not far when he felt jar
Which started his troubles and cares.
He was laid up i'll. while the doctors bill
Came in with the one for repairs.
Bad roads did 1t!
In an automobile OF wood and steel
A millionaire prim and neat
Went out for ride by the rivers side
In style that was hard to beat:
But. alas. he found that the broken
ground
And the ruts and the holes so great
Had smashed a wheel OF his automobile
What he said we cannot relate.
Bad roads did it.
But we're glad to say there shines ray
OF hope that will right this wrong
When in every state they will iegislate
To help the good roads along.
So the man with his wheel or automobile
Will never again get blue.

Money Value Of . Hard Wagon Road
to the Farmer.

Money Value OF . Hard Wagon Hoad
to the Farmer.
The reduction of a cent or two tn
railroad rates or a similar increase Is Of
far less Importance to the farmer than
the condition of the wagon road on
which he hauls his produce to the rail-
road. If he must waste day going and
coming, if he must haul small load
for fear of getting stuck en- route. II
sometimes he cannot get through the
road at all, even though the market
price of his product be at that time
unusually high, what does slightly
lower or higher rate on the railroad
profit or harm him?
On the other hand, hard. level road
Is his good servant. He can make the
trip thereon quickly at almost any sea-
son of the year. He can haul large
load and so have to make the trip less
frequently. A good road means. there
fore. a practical reduction in the cost
Of getting his products to market. 1t
means more money for every bushel Of
wheat or potatoes or other crop. 1t
means a lower cost for all the supplies
he buys in town.-Minreapolis Journal.
