CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTEN.
ANcE OF HIGHWAYS

An article of q series of articles au-
thorized by the state highway COM
mission, written by N. o. Monseurd,
member OF commission.
A short time ago there was written
and published an article by Chairman
Issenhuth on the Value of Good Roads.
This article was well received and
has resulted In much good. A great
many Of the counties of the state
have made heavy levies to be expend-
ed in constructing more and better
highways. Much has been said and
written on the many advantages OF
good roads and better highways; 1t
has been shown In many ways how
good, substantial highways will in
crease the price Of land! how the cost
OF moving crops can be greatly reduc-
ed, and how better highways will help
develop our schools and churches, and
in fact serve as a great agent In the
general development Of our state.
In considering this great highway
problem there are two distinct prob
lems that confront us: First the
problem of construction of highways;
and secondly the problem of mainten-
ance,-and the purpose of this article
will be to consider some of the essen.
tial features relative to the two prob
lens mentioned.
When we are to consider the con-
~struction OF highways we have refer
ence In this article to the so-called
dirt roads; not macadam roads, MOI
concrete roads. The two last men,
toned are ideal roads, but South Da-
kota Is as yet not ready for anything
quite SO elaborate; but 1t is well to
keep this class Of roads in mind, as
by properly constructing substantial
dirt roads" we are laying the foun-
dation to the great future highways,
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1913-12-04

OF the road; all low places should be
filed to the required grade before US
ing the road grader. If there are
sharp hills, they should also be cut
from the top and the dirt carried to
the low places. If the road work is
done when the grass Is long, or If
there is hay or grass in the road bed,
it should be cut, or burned of, other
wise 1t will clog the grader and leave
the road full of lunches. The grader
can then be put to work without any
blowing, and be kept to work until the
road is completed. 1t has been demon
strated by long experience that a trac-
ton engine is the most economical
and most satisfactory for motive
power, as 1t serves dual purposes; first
it can pull two graders at one time,
and next, it serves al a road roller,
packing the loose dirt as it is rolled
out of the bitches; and when the
road bed is completed after a heavy
traction engine it will hold its shape
bettes, and last longer without being
regarded than the road made with
horses. As before stated the roadbed
at the bottom should be at least 80
feet wide, and when completed it will
leave a finished driveway twenty to
t~wenty-four feet wide; and the road
should be crowned with a we'll rounded
crown not more than IL inches in the
center, and not less than 8 inches. 1t is
better in constructing a new road to
raise the crow a trifle higher than 1t
should be when well packed; as the
dirt has a tendency to work back to
the bitches. The grader should be
kept at work until the road has a well
rounded crown; and IL there are dips
which the grader can not fill they
should be filled with scrapers and al
low the INIT to become packed with
the wheels of the engine. After the
grading has been completed the road
should be surfaced with a King road
drag, until it is perfectly smooth and
even. When this is done 1t will shed
water like a roof, and If proper drain
age facilities have been provided all
the water will be carried away from
the road and 1t will dry in a few hours
after a heavy rain. It matters not
how well a road looks after newly
made If it is left loose; or full of little
dips and holes, the first rain will soak
the roadbed so it will take a week for
it to dry, and one or two vehicles pass
ing over it in this cond ton will leave
1t almost impossible after 1t does dry
up. II the road bed Is we'll packed
and properly drained, and we'll finish
ed, 1t should be just as safe and salts
factory to travel I'VE as an old road;
1t should be Just as good as a new
piece Of machinery; or a new house;
in other words 1t should be better than
the old road. It should be kept in
mind that our highways should be

constructed with the idea that they
are to carry, and stand up under the
heavy loads Of farm produce, as well
as safe for pleasure traffic.
After the road has been completed
1t represents a lot of hard work, and
a lot of hard cash; it is therefore i'm,
p~ortant that it should be well pre-,
served, that the time and money ex-
pended shall not be thrown away. The
best and most effective method Of pre-
serving dirt roads, Is to be very lib.
eral with the use of the King Road
Drag, after each and every rain for
several months after it's construction.
The King Road Drag, in sipte OF its
being simple will work wonders. 1t
matters not so much If 1t is the split
log drag, or If 1t is made of planks,
or the modern steel drag. They are
all cheap, and can be had for a few
dollars each; and one man with three
Or four ordinary horses can drag
thoroughly several miles of road, in a
day. The drag draws all the loose dirt
towards the center and keeps the
crown in good shape, it keeps the
bitches Clean. it prevents the grass
from growing, which Is always a men,
ace to roads, it fills all the ruts and
little holes so that they do not become
water puddles; in fact the little simple
King Road Drag will do more to pre-
serve and maintain a piece OF dirt
road than any other piece Of ma
chinery made, and at much less e
pense.
Next year will be one that will be
marked by 'ts road construction. We
expect to see more real, good roads
built during the year 1914 than have
been built for many years in the past.
Let the funds which have been levied
for this great work go just as far as
possible; let every county make as
many miles as possible of roads from
the funds available, and make just as
good and substantial roads as can be
made from South Dakota dirt; and
let there be more miles OF roads built
with the same amount Of expenditures
than have been built in the past. Have
every road-bed and grade correctly
located, so that no work or material
shall be wasted; and let this Great
Good Roads Movement be one Of the
agents to make South Dakota one OF
the best and most attractive states in
the Union.

which in time will be constructed Of
macadam and concrete.
In constructing a highway, the first
thing to do Is identical with construct
ing a building; that is to decide on
the location Of the road. Many thous-
ands OF dollars worth of work has
been expended on highways without
knowing for certain as to it being
properly located, and perhaps getting
the highway off the line SO that 1t has
become necessary to abandon 1t with
the result Of a total loss Of the entire
cost Of the road, or grade. Therefore
the first essential thing to do Is to as
certain the exact and correct location
OF the section line. so that when the
road is once constructed, that 1t can
be left in its original location. After
the section line has been located, then
decide on the width Of the road
thirty feet from ditch to ditch is a very
convenient width, this will leave room
enough for good sized bitches and will
leave a roadway from 20 to "a feet
wide. After having decided on the
width of the road stakes should be
set on the outside lines every 100
yards or SO, on both sides of the road
to be constructed. Where the DAD
follows the section line 1t should by
all means be straight and true, az a
straight road is better to construct,
better to travel and will be much bet
ter to keep up than one full of curves.
At certain places where there are I'M
usually steep hills 1t will be advisable
to curve the road to avoid an unneces-
sary heavy grade; and In such cases
care must be exercised not to make
any sharp or abrupt turns or curves
that will make travelling dangerous,
or hazardous in any way. Safety for
the travelling public should be con-
sidered as well in constructing public
highways, as 1t Is in constructing rail-
why's.
After the proposed road bed has
been staked out and Is properly locat-
ed, all stones, roots, and trees in the
roadway should be removed. These
can be utilized for filing low places;
and all low places should be provided
with adequate drainage so as not to
allow water to stand along the sides
