0avinos Effected Through Cash Pur.
ehasss and County Aid.

CALIFORNIA; state highway commits
sion has solved the problem Of pro
viding a $5O,OOOOOO system with the
$18,OO0,OOO 1t has, in the opinion or
Charles ID. Blaney. member Of the
board.
This has been accomplished for the
most part, Blaney says, by paying cash
for materials at saving OF from %
to As per cent Crushed rock has been
bought for ~ cents ton as against
$1.lO on time. and cement for from
$1.lS to $1.3O a barrel rs against from
81 90 to 81. 40
In this way. Blaney goes on to ex-
plain, lower bids are obtained from
contractors. for they do not have to tie
up from $4,000 to $4,000 in capital or
90 into debt for that amount.
Two million dollars Is the estimated
saving through this method.
Another $7.OO0!OOO saving is estimat
ed In having towns and cities con-
struct their own portions OF the nigh
ways and by getting counties to give
the rights Of way and build the
bridges.
A million more has been economical
by inducing the railroads to haul the
materials and machinery at half rates.
The railroads have been glad to make
this concession, Blaney says. because
they realize that good roads mean In
creased passenger and freight revenues
for them.
The I, 400 miles Of trunk highway or
the contemplated 270O miles are to be
constructed with concrete base. with
asphalt or asphaltic concrete surface
The cost will be about $500 a mile.
The /, 800 miles Of laterals are to be
constructed OF local materials or sim
ply we'll graded and drained, so that
when the people vote the $4,000 which
will be necessary all that Will be re
CURED will be to put on the surfacing
The grea test grade will be 8 per cent
Oregon and Washington have so mace
their highway plans as to form con
nection with the California system
which will give road from Canada
to- Mexico with the same maximum
grade
The California system will be com
pleted by the time the worlds ran
opens. The fees from automobile IL
censes will keep 1t In repair.

HOW TO BUILD GOOD ROADS.

There Is only one right solution
OF the road problem. and that
Is the construction OF permanent
roads. Every road built wholly
or in part with funds provided
by the state or federal govern
ment should have length of
life equal to the life OF the bonds
Issued to raise the money to
pay for them. The foundation.
bridges. culverts and retaining
walls at least should have such
durability. Otherwise future
generations will find themselves
doubly burdened in paying of
these old bonds and at the same
time raising money for the re-
building Of the roads.
The use Of bitumen or tar for
binder in place Of water in
creases the life Of the madacam
road and allays the dust nui-
sance. but does not provide a
real. permanent road because
such binders undergo chemical
changes and disintegrate in time.
The bituminOus road Is great
Improvement on the ordinary
water bound highway, however.
particularly for light traffic. The
first requirement of permanent
road is a foundation which will
. sustain heavy loads and which
will not be affected by frost and
water. All through roads be-
tween large centers of popula-
ton should be built strong
enough to sustain ordinary city
traffic. because intercity traffic
motor trucks and motor stages
. will be one Of the great develop
ments Of the next quarter CEN
. fury. especially at distances of
100 miles and less. Such traffic
: Is becoming an economic neces-
sity because OF freight conges-
: ton on the railroads and the re-
Quirements of long haul traffic.
: Concrete appears to be the
. best and cheapest foundation
; material. In fact, no other ma
. terial Is needed to make a good
! road.-Leslie's Weekly
The Grangeville globe. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho) 1907-1922, 1914-07-09


The next trip the drag should be start
Cd little nearer the middle. and the
last trip over the road the drag should
work close 10 the middle itself. Small
ridges Of earth will be thrown in the
horse track and, smeared by the round
side OF the log. smoothly over the road.
The smearing Of the earth by the drag
Is called pudding. aud it tends to
make the surface smooth and hard
and turn OF the water, especially after
the sun comes ont and dries it thor
oughly. The road is always dragged
after 1t has rained and not when 1t Is
dy' With good. strong pair of
aorses and well built drag one man
can drag about three or four miles Of 4
road day. This is the best possible
way to maintain good earth roads. In
every county some farmer along each
iour miles Of road should own a drag
anu drag the road when 1t rains. and
ne would find the road in good condi-
oon when he goes to market.
The necessity for dragging the road
comes about from the fact that water
says on the road surface. because it
