method to be employed, staying here
for two days in order to see the work
started.
Instead of using the crushed rock
which was the original plan, on &C
count of the long delay in getting the
material, 1t was decided to use the
gravel which is found IL this county,
as the foundation for the street, thus
making this first street entirely out

of the asphalt binding. A layer Of
coarse stone is being placed on top Of
the macadam street and this is treated
with a liberal coating Of the asphalt
mixture. which in turn is covered with
a layer of coarse gravel, and then

of the asphalt is poured and another
layer of the gravel, the street being
again rolled with the heavy steam roll
