EXPERIMENTS IN GOOD ROADS
Present Efforts May Lead to Discov-
cry of Binding Material That
Is Quite Essential.

The efforts to obtain a durable bin
der for road material are not without
value, becauce they clearly show what
to avoid, and may, by the slow pro-
cess of elimination, lead to the dis
covery of the binding material that is
so essential to road making at the
present time.
There is nothing yet known in this
country, nor yet in France, where

Is under constant, scientific super
vision, tina, will withstand the double
effect OF horsedrawn vehicles and
pneumatic-tired motor cars. But if
there is any combination that will
meet these requirements, it is certain
to be brought to light some day, and

to require less scientific and less cost

are not so dusty as the macadam

heavy traffic and the wear and tear

Gravel roads are also said to be
gaining in favor in Pennsylvania, but
the difficulty is to find gravel depos-
it's large enough to meet the require
ments of extensive road building and
repairing. Where good gravel can be
had the contention is that the state
can get better results by using it than
by spending much more money for
macadam. Be that as it may, those
whose memories go back beyond the
time of improved road building in this
state remember that the roads were
always fairly good in districts where
gravel was abundant and was freely
used.

urged to put UP nesting boxes where
the birds may make their homes and
rear their young. In summer these
little feathered neighbors need human
protection to shield their young from
the attacks of cats.
Are you going to join the ranks Of
the bird protectors of this land? If
you are now is the time to show your
loyalty to your feathered friends.
Make some nesting houses and get
them up at once. The song birds are
here and they are beginning to look
for places to build their homes. 1t
isn't difficult to make nesting boxes.
Once the birds have discovered them
they will begin to collect material
with which to line them and make
them soft and "comfey" for their fam
lilies.
Any small wooden box may be con-
verted into house like the one shown
in the illustration. Use thin, smooth
boards for the roof. Notice the board
