ELPA50 ROADS
BEST IN Texas
Adrian Pool Returns With
Praise and Ideas For
County Roads.

'EI Paso county has the best roads
in Texas. The best road near Hous-
ton is not as good as our worst road
in FL Paso county
This is what Adrian FOOL county
iudge-elect. thinks OF FL faSO county
reads He returned SUNDAY LIS-t IT oill
a u DAYS trip over the state on an
inspecrf0u of the roads and OF the
methods Of building ROADS he VISITED
Beaumont Galveston, Victoria, nous
ton and Austin and is convinced mat
the roads in eastern Texas do not
comnare with those Of his own county.
The next county judge brought back
samples of the road making mdleFl1l
which is used at victoria, Wnere ne
found the best roads in the state rms
is a mixture of fine gravel and TO
percent Of red clay for binder He
intends TO give this TO county com
missioner Seth OrndOrII ana ask MN
to try TO find something like II IN the
lower valley for the constr uClLou 'l
dirt road laterals TO the county road
system.
Learns How to Repair Roads.
Judge Pool says that he learned
method Of repairing roads lhal was
worth his trip TO east Texas At &c
tCria he saw two kinds Of repair work
and studied the results one road,
where the surface had Deen worn IN
bumps and holes was covered with FOUR
inches Of gravel The other piece Of
worn road was plOwed, narrowed and
covered with only two inches OF SraV-
eL This road was as good as new
after travel had been passing over II,
while the road that was only covered
with the gravel was soon as bad as il
was before being repaired
Il learned that II pays TO break M
a road and grade and rerOu it, the
next county judge says. That is what
I intend TO do 10 the road from Canu-
tillo across the river to the state line.
II is rough and needs working. The
road from Beaumont 10 Houston is a
fine shell road, but il does not COM
pare with our road from Anthony to
Fort Hancock The Galveston-HOus
ton road is not as good as the road
from FL Paso to Fort Hancock The
read from Houston, 25 miles out, IS
not as good as our worst county road.
although the roads 25 miles out Of
Galveston are fine. Victoria had the
best roads Of any place 1 visited They
have eight roads running into Vic
tcria- If we had our knowledge Of
road building and their material we
would have perfect roads which --ould
last for ten years without a break"
Three Pools County Judges.
While at Victoria, judge Pool met
his cousin, judge J. T. Pool, who is
county judge there. Another cousin.
Judge r. 3. Pool. is county judge at
