be sprinkled while the rolling is in
progress, but ii a roller and sprinkler
are not available the road should be
constructed If possible in the spring of
the year, as the successive rains will
cause the material to pack much better
than If the road were built in the dry
hot summer or early fall.
If the gravel is lacking in suitable
binding material and clay or loan Is
available a limited quantity of such
material may be spread over the sur
face. The clay should be used very
sparingly, however, as 1t absorbs wa
ter and causes the road to become soft
and muddy in wet weather and dusty
In dry weather. When the clay dries
1t contracts and causes the road to
crack. Clay is also affected by frost.
The same may be said of loan. The
best binder of all Is iron oxide, which
Is frequently found coating the pebbles.
Very satisfactory results may be OBJ
tanned by surfacing the gravel road
with a thin layer Of limestone or trap
rock screenings.
The split log drag or some similar
device may be used to good advantage
in maintaining the gravel road.
