THE PRINCIPLES of highway con
I struction have been taught to
students of the Civil Engineer
ing apartment Of the State Col
lege for years. Four years ago,
however, the statewide interest in
good roads led to the establishing of
good roads laboratory at the college,
equipped with such machinery and ia
cilities as are necessary to train spe-
cialists in this profession At the pres
ent writing seven students are special
iNng in road constructien--these dis
tiuguished from the other students of
the civil engineering department, whe
are interested in other phase. Of en-
gineering.
On the college campus, roadway
has been reserved for an experiment
with some fiIteen different kinds of
road surface Tho roadway reaches
from the dairy building on the front
campus, out east to the college farm,
and will be surfaced with different
types of road material, put down in
sections, and all subjected to the same
amount Of wear Early reports win be
made as to the way in which the diff
ferent sections are holding up under
the traffic, which is heavy, including
automobiles, light Vehicles, and the
heavy loads occasiored BY the haulisg
of building material into the college
grounds, and the hauling Of crop prod
ucts.
Surfaces Are Varied
Among the surfaces to be used are,
brick with cement ground filler, brick
with bituminous filler, sheet asphalt,
sections of bituminous concrete con-
structed under different specifications,
concrete thinly topped with tar, bitum
inous macadam, and several different
kinds Of patented pavements.
The materials testing laboratory is
equipped with the machinery necessary
for determining the values of road
building material. With reference to
stone this includes resistance to wear,
hardness, toughness, cement values, and
30 on.
In the abrasion tests, the rock is
broken up in small pieces and put in
cylinders which are revolved slowly for
some time. The percentage Of the
"rock dust" which has been eroded
from the pieces of rock in the revolving
cylinder is then computed, and with
this as basis is calculated the resis
tance to wear of the particular stone.
Wide differences are found in differ
ent types of rock; and, what is still
more confusing, wide differences Of re-
sistance to abrasion are found in stone
of the same type, and of almost similar
appearance.
Machinery Is Needed.
q'he machinery necessary to deter
mias the cement vaules Of stone is in.
ciuded ie the equipment Of the good
roads laboratory, and consists of the
Dan machine, which prepares the stone
DUST the molding machine, in which
are made small brickettss Of the stone
dust; and the impact machine, in which
the brickettes are knocked to pieces.
The number Of blows required to knock
the brickettes to bits constitutes the
basis for determining Of the ccmenting
value Of the rock.
The cement value Of stone in read
surface is very important. For ex-

z. J Bridgmon had the best yield,
something better than 500 bushels
from 20 acres, which was better than
~ bushels per acre.
Brow nield & Teare will remodel
the elevator just a. soon AS the wheat
industry Is finished. They will pu, a
grain cleaner In tie top story, and a
new and much larger corn shelter on
the second floor, and feed grinder In
connection with the grain buying.
1t H. estimated that the elevator
will handle 100000 bushels OF whea,
before the close Of the season.
Had not the Ilessian fly infested the
wheat fields u that locality, the yield
would have been much larger, for
some Of the fields we're ploughed up
In the spring and replan'ed In corn.
Tie elevator at Bigelow handled
more wheat than both the large ele.
