evening Grain Letter.

Chicago. oct. ls Wheat: The
opening was steady after which the
market advanced about u per bushel,
easing later. The volume of trading
was rather lighter than yesterday with
more or less profit taking on the
strong spots. There was some new
buying today on reports Of poor re-
turns OF spring wheat. both In this
country and in Canada. The MIN
neapolis market did not show mueh
strength although there was some good
buying there. While the market mas
held the advance of the past two days
very we'll as are inclined to feel that
Kome reaction is due. Foreign mar
kets do not respond proportionabiy,
neither do buyers of cash wheats fol-
low the advance, as far as our own
market is concerned.

BURRELL TALKED
ON CITY PAVING
EXPERT or THE GOVERNMENT
DISCUSSES CITY AND TELLS or
NEW METHODS or RRick-t4E
coMMENps FIRST AVENUE JOB
THE DOORWAY.

In talking with q representative OF
The Forum today b. H. Burrell, the
government expert highway engineer
who is In the city, discussed some OF
the paving questions that are now
confronting Fargo.
The government official spoke very
highly of the modern brick paving,
none of which has ever been laid in
Fargo. According to his information
the new brick paving Ia filed with less
champfer around the edges and be-
tween the bricks is placed cement
grout.
Under the new method OF brick
paving. there is an expansion joint
placed in the brick. This expansion
Joint is made OF pitch and is placed at
about every 100 feet along the paving.
There should also be an expansion
joint left on the side OF the paving,
next to the gutter.
I'm all the brick paving that has
come under my observation none of
the new method brick paving has fall
ed where there has been the right
kind and quantity Of expansion joints
placed in the paving job. When fill

smooth. the vehicles make very little
noise in passing over 1t. The grout
so fills the cracks that the paving will
not chip readily. the cement and the
paving brick wearing down ut tho
same time"
When asked what he thought Of the
job Of paving now being done on First
avenue he stated that 1t was very
good one. and commended the work
manship on it very highly. Regard
ing the placing of cement base along
the street car tracks where the paving
is to be done Mr.. Burrell stated that
1t was not necessary. However. he
suggested that steel ties should be
placed in position, where the concrete
paving base was being useE.
What do you think of the DOORWAY
pavement" asked The Forum man.
II would not care to say anything
about 1t. have not seen 1t, and can
not say anything regarding it."
Mr.. BurrelI will be the chief speaker
at the good roads meeting to be held
this evening at the commercial club.
He has announced that he Will devote
a good part Of his lecture TO paving

prove to be of interest to every citi-
