Difficulty of Selection
The above generalization are of neces-

ties have very wide ranges of character
1t consequently happens in many cases.
particularly where there is a number OF
rocks to choose from, that the difficulty
of making the best selection is great,
and this difficulty is constantly increasing
with the rapidly growing facilities OF
transportation and the increased range oi
choice which this permits. On account al
their desirable road properties some rocks
are now shipped several hundred miles
for use. There are but two way: IL
which the value of a rock road ma
terial can be accurately determined. one
way. and beyond all doubt the surest. j.
to build sample roads OF all the rocks
available i'm a locality. to measure tii.
traffic and wear to which they are sub
Jected. and keep an accurate account Of
the cost both of construction and annual
repairs for each. BY this method actual
results are obtained, but it has grave and
obvious disadvantages. 1t is very oostl5
especially so when the results are mega
tive), and it requires so great lapse o
time before results are obtained that il
cannot be considered a practical method
when macadam roads first being
built in a locality. Further than this.
results thus obtained are not applicable
to other roads and materials. Such a
method while excellent in its results. can
only be adopted by communities which
can afford the necessary time and money.
and is entirely Inadequate for general
use.
The other method is to make laboratory
tests of the physical properties of avail
able rocks in a locality, study the con-
ditions obtaining on the particular road
that is to be built, and then select the
material that best suits the conditions
This method has the advantages of giving
speedy results and of being inexpensive
and as far as the results of laboratory
tests have been compared with the re-
suits of actual practice they have been
found to agree.

trap rock has gained much favor with
road builders is because a large ma oritN

traps stand such traffic better than

A record is made Of the traffic every
thirteenth day throughout the year. and
an average taken to determine its mean
amount. Some such general method of
classifying traffic i'm units is desirable.
as it permits the traffic of road to be
expressed in one number.
Importance of Traffic Record.
Before this French method can be APP
piled to the traffic of our country ii will
be necessary to modify considerably the
mode of rating. This, however, is a mat
ter which can be studied and properly
adjusted by the office of public road in
quiries. 1t is most important to obtain a
record of the average number Of horses
and vehicles and kind of vehicles that
pass over an earth road in a day before
the macadam road is built. The small
cost of such a record is triffing when
compared with the cost of a macadam
road GrCm $1,000 to $1,000 per mile for
a fifteen-foot road, in view of the fact
that an error in the selection of material
may cost d much larger sum of money.
After q record of the traffic iS obtained,
if the road is to be built of crushed rock
for the first time, an allowance for an
at least to 10 or II per cent had best be
made. for the improved road generally
brings traffic from adjoining roads.
Material Suited to Traffic.
To simplify the matter somewhat. the
different classes of traffic to which roads
are subjected may be divided into five
groups, which may be called city, urban,
suburban, highway and country road
traffic. respectively. City traffic is
traffic so great that no macadam road
can Withstand if, and is such exists
on the business streets OF large cities.
For such a traffic stone and wood blocks.
asphalt, brick some such material are
necessary. Urban traffic is such as eX-
lists on city streets which are not SUBJ
jected to continuous heavy teaming, but
which have to withstand a very heavy
wear and need the hardest and toughest
macadam rock. Suburban traffic is such
