UTAH ROCK ASPHALT
Quarter.mile of Roadway to
Be Laid in Five Com
binations.

Value of Native Material Can
Thus Be Determined by

COST IS TWO THOUSAND

AS an experiment calculated to test tho
practical values of Utah rock asphaI'
as a road building material. the county
commissioners. on advice of B. ii. Bur
reli senior road engineer in tho govern
ment service, have agreed to construct a
quarter OF "A mile OF roadway on State
street between Salt Lake and Murray

different combinations.
Mr.. Rurrell, who has been engaged io'
the past two weeks making obserVauohS
and surveys preliminary TO the roau
building campaign the county eNpccts
To begin. is favorably Impressed with
Ctaii rock asphalt. He believes however.
that practical tests should be made TO
determine the best method or using tne
material before IL is adopted for general
use county roads.
Fe proposed TO the county commission
crs yesterday that five tests be made on
the quarter OF q mile OF experimental
different combination, each contiguous TO
the other. The five stretches Viii have
the following general specifications:
Gravel base With rock asphalt fac
Ing; sing base with rock asphalt
facing; concrete base with rock as,

as soon as the reports arrive the plan
outlined 10 TIE commissioners Will be
undertaken. The road expert estimates
that the experiment Will cost about
$4,000 He believes II will be worth all
OF that as a good piece OF road as well
as affording O practical working knowl-
edge OF the use Of the native material
that would be invaluable.
Mr.. Burrell advised the commissioners
that in building the roadways through
