TO INSPECT PAvEMENTs.
Officials to Make a Trip to Sheboygar
Sunday to Make an Investigation.

A number of the officials of the city
including Mayor Head and several mem
bers of the common council are plan
ming to make trip to Sheboygan on
Sunday to look over concrete pavements
laid in that city. For some time an eff
fort has been made to secure a test of
concrete pavements in Kenosha but the
aldermen have been slow to include the
concrete pavement in the city specifca-
lions. A number of pavements of this
nature have been laid in Fond du Lac
and Sheboygan and several are under
construction at the latter city at this
time. The cement companies interested
in the promotion of the pavements of
this type have invited the aldermen to
take the trip of inspection. Property
owners on several of the streets of the
city have investigated the payements
and are favorable to them.

EXPERIMENT ON JOINTS.
State Highway Commission Lets Local
Commissioner Use Own Judgment.

County Highway Commissioners M. G..
Mcclellan is, in receipt of letter from
A. r. Hirst, engineer for the state high
way commission, which gives him a
chance to test several methods for lay
ing Joints in the concrete roads to be
constructed in this county and the state
will approve the method which best
suits the construction here. Engineer
Hirst has declined to change the mix to
be used in the Kenosha roads to the
mix used in Wayne County, Michigan,
as he declares in his letter that the
mix used by the commission is regarded
as better than that used on the Michi-
gan roads.
The work on the Lake Shore road is
now well under way. Work was started
on the grading of roads in the town
of Bristol on Friday and it is certain
that within week road work in all
parts of the county viii be well under
way.
