meaning that the distance from the
peak down to the plate must be half
the width Of the building. This steep
roof is necessary to accommodate the
corn conveyor and distributing spout
which is hung directly from the raft
ers. For this reason care must be
used not to have any cross ties higher
up on the rafters than shown in the
drawing. The studs are two by six
inches set "a inches on centers. The
braces A, b and c are all two by six
inches placed four feet on centers.
The rafters are two by six inches set
"a inches on centers; the stills, if crib
sets on piers, should be six by six
inches or six by eight inches square.
A tie rod one-half or ive-eighths
inches in diameter should be placed
across the building ten feet apart, as
shown. The guide boards are for dis
tributing the corn evenly in the crib,
but should not be nailed in place un-
til the conveyor is installed, as in the
distributing spouts in the various ma
chimes, the spout is SO arranged that
the center studs forming the driveway
may be extended up above the plate

MATERIALS FOR GOOD ROADS
Cannot Be Given Definitely Be-
cause Of Variations.

The exact proportions of sand and
clay for making the best sand-clay
road cannot be stated, as the proper
tons vary with the character of the
sand, according to its sharpness, per-
centage Of foreign material and size
of grains. Approximately, there is in
a sand-clay road about eighty per
cent. sand and twenty per cent. clay.
One simple means of determining the
theoretical amount of pure clay that
should be added to any sand that Is to
be used In the construction of a sand
clay road Is to fill a glass tumbler
brimfull with the sand that is to be
used and then fill a similar tumbler
with water: pour the water carefully
onto the sand until the water comes
flush with the surface, which will
that all the voids between the
grains of sand are now filled with wa
ter. The amount of water that has
been poured into the tumbler contain
ing the sand will represent the pro-
portion Of volume OF clay that is nee
essary to add to that particular sand
to hll all the voids with clay.
Having determined the source of
supply Of the best materials for ma
king a sand-clay road, the next ques-
ton is the mixing Of the materials.
and this varies with the character of
the subsoil, whether this is a sand
upon which clay is to be added or clay
upon which sand is to be added. 1t
will be found that 1t is much easier
to make a sand-clay road where the
subsoil is clay.
