SAYS HIGHWAY WORK
 PROCEEDS RAPIDLY

Chas. B. Howard, of the Prescott the Verde valley and MoSollon moun- tains and reports the territorial high way work as progressing rapidly at severa! points, and the people very enthusiastic over it's construction. From Montezuma's well he rode over the completed portion to the plateau that has been finished for over seven miles and pronounces it an ideally constructed roadway similar to that from this city to the south, says the Journal Miner. From the summit to Flagstaff several teams are at work and it is stated that by November 18th fairly good route will be avail able to Flagstaff, the present plan be- ing only contemplating repairs. A large force is at work from Monte- Zuma's well toward Camp Verde, r. miles distant. which will be ready for autoists by December 18th at the latest. This portion of the road is somewhat rough at present, and until repaired at certain points, is diff cult for a machine to traverse The
 
 approaches to the big concrete bridge at Camp Verde are in bad condition, but it is stated a force of men will soon be dispatched to that point to remedy existing evils. From Prescott to Camp Verde through Copper Cam yon the road is in very good condi- ton, with the exception of that DOT ton lying east of Cienega and through the canyon. Mir. Howard states that with the route from the Verde valley to Flagstaff completed the benefits will be incalculable In addition to commercial advantages, the admirable summer climate with the fascinating scenery that will be presented to tourists will rebound to the benefit of the country in a man. ner that will attract hundreds.

MILE OF MODEL ROAD
EXPERIMENT IS TRIED IN BROOK.
INcs COUNTY.
Prof. n. C.. SoIberg, Professor Mechan.
icai Engineering, at State COL
Iege at 6rookings, Describes
and illustrates the Work.

Ever since the first settlement was
made in Brookings county, the ques-
ton of public highways across the low
lands known as the Sioux River fats,
nave been more or less of a serious
problem to deal with. Serious only
because it required a little more work
to make a good road there than the av-
erage farmer was willing to put on,
under the old system of road work.
Very frequently when a little work
was attempted, it was done without
any definite plans, and the roads were
left in worse condition after the work,
than they were before, hence, many
preferred no road work whatever.
Just west of the city of Brookings
on the direct line to Volga, the condi-
ton of the road has been a little worse
than in any other place in Brookings
county. This line of road, while it
should be the main line of travel, east
that it has practically been abandoned
for road purposes, and no substantial
efforts have Eel been put forth to
improve it. The main difficulty along
this line was due to the fact that the
land is so nearly level that in case Of
a flood, the water remained stationary
until it soaked into the ground, which
In wet seasons is a slow process. The
problem of drainage was solved about
our years ago, when the county COM
missioners put in a drainage ditch
leading to the river. This drainage
ditch is sufficiently large to carry the
flood water away ia a reasonably short

Commercial club decided to interest
itself in the movement for better
roads, by appointing a committee on
good roads, of which the writer vas
made chairman. The majority Of this
committee were members of the facul-
ty of the State college, and they made
application to the office of public roads
department of agriculture, Washing
ton, D. c., for the services of a road
expert to assist and direct the con-
struction of a mile of model road. In
this we were successful and secured
the services of Mr.. Geo. d. Marshall,
n of the most experienced of road
experts in the government service. 1t
was also agreed that if a model road
was to be built. in order to be of the

Caring for ConsumptIves.

There are now four special methods
by which consumptive workmen in
the United States are being cared for.
In such cities as Albany, Elmira and
Binghamton, N. Y, the unions sup
port a separate pavilion or hospital. In
cities like Hartford, New Britain and
South Manchester, Conn, the work
men contribute towards the mainte-
of a fund for the care of con
sumptives. The employers also con
tribute to these funds. There are also
two national sanatoria for the treat
ment of tuberculosis owned and oper-
ated by labor unions; one by the In
ternational Typographical union. and
the other by the Printing Freshmen
and Assistants union. In Massachu-
sets, Illinois and elsewhere large cor
porations and manufacturers have
agreed voluntarily to care for all their
c~onsumptive employees for a limited
length Of time.

where the conditions for a good road
were the most difficult. Hence, the
mile between sections and in Brook
ings township previously referred to
was selected. On account of a number
of small bitches and other obstruc-
lions along the road, it was impossible
to use any other kind Of machinery
for moving the dirt than ordinary
scrapers.
Figure one shows the cross-sec-
ton of the road bed where the work
was started. At this end no road work
had ever been attempted, and the cen
ter shows the old road as it appeared
in the prairie.
The first work consisted in cutting
al the weeds and grass, and raking it
away from the ground. The next work
consisted in stalking out the road bed.
The road proper was made twenty
(20) feet wide, with q ten-foot cut on
each side, making the roadway forty
(4O) feet from ditch to ditch. The first
blowing was made ten inches deep.
The sod and dirt was placed in the
road bed, the sod being rather tough,
a sod cutter loaded down with three
hundred pounds extra weight was
used, and the sod was all cut and pull
verified, and then dragged SO as to de-
stroy all vegetation, and remove all
Jumps from the road. After this was
finished, another blowing, but more
shallow, was lone and the dirt moved
IN as shown in figure 3. Finally the
road grader. and the split log drag
was used, and the road finished as
shown in Fig. 4.
The ditch on both sides of the road
was made as nearly uniform as posi-

derived from it will be put into prac.

has been clearly demonstrated by the
construction of this road. that If more
intelligence was put into road work
less money would be needed to make
a good road than has been the custom
under the old system Of road building.

the promotion of this road proposition,

that it was money and energy well ex.

of better roads, which in turn will
mean more pleasure and comfort for

One of the principal lessons derived

seer in South Dakota ought to know, Is
the remarkable improvement to be
gained by the complete cutting and
pulverizing of the sod, as well as the
small cost involved in doing it. BY
cutting and pulverizing the sod the
road packs ever from the beginning
and eliminates the formation of high
ridges and hollows, that are the curse
of every road bed.

the gentle slope to the sides, as shown

county ditch, which runs at right an
giles to the road on the west end Of
this mile.
When the road work was started
there were six culverts or small
bridges on this mile of road. The first
three from the east were removed, and
filled up, as the side bitches were low
enough to take care of the water. At
the west end is the county ditch, and a
short distance east of that a large
slough, which necessitated two fair
sized culverts, and still farther east a
smaller one. In as much as this was
to be a model road, it was thought best
to put in the culverts of modern ON
structiOn. Hence, it was decided to
put in two six-foot, and one three-foot
culvert Of reinforced concrete con-
struction with concrete bottom o.
floor over all. The detail plans Of
these culverts were prepared by the
writer and approved by Mr.. Marshall.
