The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1912-08-08
mond one of the finest stations on the
Eastern division.

Mr.. julius Kruttschhitt, director of
the Hartman lines, thinks he has
solved the problem of broken rails.
His engineers have found that the
base of regular 9O-pound rail tends
to become bowl-shaped in cold wealth
er, and the pounding of the wheels
causes surface fractures. BY broaden
ing the base of the rail and making it
heavier, the breaks are reduced to a
minimum. Experiments proved that
the rail with the heavier base gave
only two breakages to the 100 miles
in the winter months, as compared
with % breakages in the regular rail,
the same rate as during the summer
months, so that, so far as the Harri-
man lines are concerned, the rail prob
lem is solved.

board of supervisors will proceed to
issue same and confidently expect to
sell them at a good premium. The
bonds will run for forty years, though
it is probable they will be series bonds
of ten, twenty, thirty and forty years
bearing five per cent interest.
1t is the purpose of the supervisors
to expend two thousand dollars per
mile. If this will insure permanent
roads, but if it will not the amount per
mile will be Increased. Under the
present contract system the county is
paying $4,000 year for keeping the
roads in condition. With $15O,O0O in
five per cent bonds, the interest will
amount to only $500. Taking the
same amount each year for mainte-

$500 per year interest, $1,000 up-keen
