in point Of time" produced remarka-
BILE roads, particularly in France. The
system is now rapidly giving way to a
system OF periodical surfacing with
the use Of a steam roller, accompanied
by continuous small repairs or main
tenance.
Maintenance Of Ordinary Macadam
Roads.
Under the system Of periodical re-
surfacing at intervals Of six years and
more the continuous maintenance Of
an ordinary or water bound macadam
road must take care of small patch
ing and GIL up ruts and hollows. Ere
quently a new macadam road shows
some raveling, and il Is necessary to
remove the scattering, loose stones,
which are stacked for future use. The
primary object of macadam surface
maintenance under the periodic repair
system is, therefore, to prevent incipi-
ent ruts from becoming deeper, to fiji
up holes which hold water, to stop raw
cling and TO clean the road of organic
matter, mud and dust
It is necessary, in addition to the
maintenance OF the macadam surface
itself, to clean the cutters, catch ba-
sins and culverts which constitute the
drainage features OF the road, The
road shoulders must be kept pared and
free from weeds, and small gullies on
the shoulders and embankments must
be repaired before they become too
large. Guard rails must be repaired
and painted and the general neatness
Of the roadway preserved In Ale
gheny county, Pa, the road patrolman
also whitewashes culvert ends, sewer
heads, ETC., as protection to travel.
Surface Treatment.
The term surface treatment is used
to designate primarily that treatment
with bltuminous material which is APP
piled to a water bound or ordinary
macadam road or which is subsequent
ly applied to a macadam road con-
structed or resurfaced with bitumi-
nous material and which Is intended TO
supply a wearing coat to the road and
to prevent the formation of dust Els
sential distinguishing features of sur
face treatment are, then, the applica-
ton of course of screenings or bro
ken stone or equivalent "fines,' such
as clean small gravel or coarse, sharp
sand, and the use of heavier bltumi-
nous material.
The entire process of surface treat
ment has become fairly well defined
The principal operations are as fol-
lows:
Cleaning the old macadam road sur
face thoroughly with a mechanical

fine material or dust remains.
Restoring an even. smooth surface

ings and bituminous material In hol
lows aud ruts.
Covering the bltuminous material
with stone screenings from which the
dust has. been removed or with equiva-
lent material such as clean fine grav-
el or sharp. coarse sand.
Rolling with a light roller or. after a
sufficient interval. opening the road TO
travel without rolling.
There are a number Of notifications
and variations of the process of sur
face treatment, as outlined above. Tn"
object of such treatment is to supply
wearing coat more or less resilient
and to prevent the formation of dust,
the loss OF binding material and the
consequent disintegration of the road
surface.
Even the smallest amount of dust re
naming on an old macadam surface
when the bituminous coat is applied
may prevent the proper adhesion ana
cause subsequent taking or peeling
Care must be used, however, in sweep
ing not to disturb the larger stones In
the old surface. and for this reason
soft brooms may be used to complete
the sweeping. Machine sweepers are
being used In increasing numbers AMI
do their work more cheaply, but some
hand sweeping is usually needed for
a perfect job.

highway building which is intimately
associated with state aid and state
control. Tie evolution of present day
conditions is particularly important in
its bearing on highway repair and
maintenance.
1t Is now recognized that there is a
sharp distinction between the terms
repair and maintenance. as applied to
operations upon highways. When a
road of any type is completed the eff
feet Of travel and the elements tend to
destroy 1t. Those operations required
constantly to oppose the deterioration
of the road constitute general mainte-
nance. Without maintenance the road
after time is partially destroyed, and
operations then necessary to restore 1t
constitute repair. 1t is true that both
processes are often similar in kind and
may overlap. They differ In quantity
and in the order In which they are ap-
piled.
Maeadam Roads.
1t cannot be said that macadam
roads In this country have been prop
eriy maintained. Maintenance has
usually been strongly advocated and
little practiced. Maintenance and re-
pair have not been distinct operations.
They are just beginning to be carried
as separate accounts on public records.
Ordinary macadam roads have until
recently formed the highest class Of
improved country highways. Although

Of them are operated by n steam roller.
Their essential features are sufficient
strength and rigidity thoroughly to
break up the hardest surface. II is
desirable that the scarifier be light
enough to be removed from the road
without the use Of roller. Some
scarifiers are fitted with steering de
vices, and the breaking depth OF the
spikes can usually be regulated.

such roads are now in many instances
giving place to bituminous macadam
or other kinds of road, they still con-
stitute an important class OF roads, and
their repair and maintenance involve
the fundamental principles for all road
work.
When a road has worn more or less
out OF shape In section and is rutted
new stone is usually required to resur-
face IT, The first problem is TO de
termine how much stone will be need
ed. The average stone depth on the
road may be measured or calculated
by a known wear coefficient or by a
careful inspection OF the general road
surface. Accurate measurement OF the
stone remaining on the road cannot
be made by digging a few small holes
in the surface, because the subgrade
invariably works into the lower stone,
and also the lower stone layer pene-
trates the subgrade, A clean cut trench
halfway across the road section) with
careful mea surement win give good
determination,
The usual method of beginning re
pair is TO pick up an old road surface
with spikes set in the rear wheels OF
the roller and then tlnish the work Of
loosening by hand or by the use OF a
harrow or plow. The surface must

JONES HOUSE DIVIDED.
Mother OF .GeneraI' Wage Fight
Against Suffrage.

The spectacle of a mother opposing her
daughter in the pro and anti fight for
equal suffrage will he presented this
summer, when Mrs. oliver Livingston
Jones, of New York. will conduct
an automobile tour against suffrage in
an effort to counteract the suffrage sem
timent created by her daughter, Gen
eral' Rosalie Gardner Jones. who led
her little army of hikers from New York
to this city.
Mrs. Jones announced that the details
OF the auto tour were not yet complete.
but that the trip perhaps would be
made over the same route taken by the
general and her mixers.
One Of the bitterest of suffrage op-
pOnents. Mrs Jones Is unable to under
stand her daughters convictions. but
mother and daughter carefully refrain
from any debates on the subject. The
mother tried to dissuade the daughter
when the little general proposed the
New York to Washington hike. but she
was unsuccessful. When the army
reached their goal Friday the gen
erals" mother was the first to rush up
TO her fnging her arms around her
da lighter and kissing her.
Il am proud of what my little girl
has done" said Mrs. Jones to-day 1T
is wonderful But il does not alter my
on the suffrage question. !
am opposed to woman's suffrage and ex-
peCt that the tour this summer will win
back TO the anti faction most OF those
whom my daughter and her army con-
verted on their way to this city
