With good binding or cementing
gravel satisfactory roads may be made
by surfacing the prepared earth sub
grade with one or two layers of this
material. The earth road is first
shaped with a road machine, and II
possible, rolled with an eight or ten
ton roller. The earth foundation
should be crowned but slightly. The
material is spread in one, two or three
layers to total depth OF from to IL
inches in the center and from four to
six inches at the sides. gradually d.
minishing in depth to feather edge
toward the side bitches. The depth
OF gravel will depend upon the traffic
and. to some extent, on the material
as well as the earth subgrade.
Some varieties of gravel must be
sprinkled and rolled before they will
consolidate, while others bind well un-
der ordinary traffic. Sometimes a good
practice is to apply the gravel in
wet weather, or to wet the gravel be
fore 1t is applied to the road. In some
cases a little clay or loan will hasten
the binding process. Care should be
taken, however, not to use too much
clay or loan, as these will soften in
wet weather An excess of clay makes
the road dusty In summer and muddy
In winter
If It becomes necessary to build the
road without roller or sprinkler, the
work should be done In the spring OF
he Aof he Inc hox
The traffic will pack the material
much better then than In the summer
or fall.
The width of the gravel road will
depend upon traffic conditions. II
should be surfaced to a width Of at
least IL feet, and IL possible, to width
of from IA to 16 feet. A narrow strip
of gravel will wear out much more
quickly than one which is a little
wider. II the road is surfaced to a
width Of 16 feet, then the center Of the
road should be from five to eight
inches higher than the outside edge
of the gravel. This Is sufficient for
drainage. II the crown is higher than
about an inch to the foot, the traffic
will be forced to the center Of the
road and cause 1t to wear more
quickly.
The cost of building gravel roads
varies greatly in different parts Of
the country. depending principally on
the distance materials are hauled and
the cost of labor and teams. So far
as can be ascertained, the average
cost of building $4,000 miles Of gravel
road in Indiana was $1473 per mile.
The average cost Of building 237 miles
of gravel road in New Jersey was
$2,425 per mile. The New Jersey
roads were surfaced to an average
width of 1873 feet and an average
depth Of "a inches. The average cost
Of building 70 miles in Connecticut
was 1874 per mile. The Connecticut
roads were surfaced to an average
width of 1876 feet and to depth Of
S.3 inches.

a hand or power screen. Gravel roads
built of screened gravel are usually
superior to those built of unscreened
gravel, although there are exceptions
to this rule.
When the gravel is separated, the
coarse is used for the foundation, the
medium sized pieces for the wearing
course. and the fine gravel and dust
for the binder as In regular macadam
construction. II there is an excess OF
earth. sand. or clay, as. is often the
case, these can and should be removed
by screening.
An outfit consisting of gasoline
engine, hopper. elevator. revolving
screen and medium sized bins for three
sizes of gravel will cost in the neigh
borhood of $1,000. For a small addi-
tional outlay drum and cable may be
attached to the engine with which to
operate bucket conveyor to carry
the gravel from the pit to the hopper.
There are many different methods
of building gravel roads In use in va
rious parts OF the country Most Of
them. however. are built without meth
Cd or plan. Some fail because
the material is poor. but the majority
of the failures is due to the fact that
the material is not properly applied to
the road.
The following are the principal
causes OF failure. First; poor mate
rial: round water-worn gravel; too lit
tie binder or too much sand. earth
or clay. Second: unstable founda-

APPLYING LIME TO THE SOIL
Most Important Point to Be Observed
Is to Mix II ThoroughIy-Have
Particles Very Fine.

Some writer's recommend that upol

lime should be applied to the surface
before blowing, in order that 1t may
help to quickly decompose the organ.
ic matter.
The main objection to this practice,
writes r. d. Perry in Perdue Agri.
culturist. Is that the lime does not
become well Incorporated In the soil,
and since some OF ii is turned to the
bottom of the furrow and its tendency
at all times is to work downward. II
may be quickly carried not only away
from the surface soil. but also from
the reach of the plants
The practice Of lining such soils
Immediately after blowing and then
thoroughly narrowing has been at
tended by excellent results. A most
important point to be observed in ap-
plying lime of all kinds is to mix II
with the soil as thoroughly as pos
sible. the finer the particles the bette

A properly located and well-drained
earth foundation is the prerequisite of
good gravel road, says the ONCE Of
public roads, department Of agricul-
ture. II is a waste of material and
labor to apply gravel to the surface
Of a road which is full Of ruts and
holes. A smooth, solid foundation is
Just as necessary as in macadam con-
strnction.
There are SO many kinds Of gravel
that 1t is almost impossible to lay
down principles Of construction which
will hold good in all cases. A road
building gravel should bind well. The
qualities of hardness and toughness
are important, but not so important as
the cementing value. The angular
gravels with square, sharp fractures
are the best. Water-worn creek or
river gravel, which is round and clean,
will seldom produce a satisfactory
wearing surface. Such material may,
however be used for 9 foundation and
bonded with layer of suitable pit
gravel.
Two deposits of gravel are seldom
found which are exactly alike. When
there are several pits to choose from,
hand samples should be selected from
each and carefully examined and II
possible a test made to ascertain the
cementing value of each. BY separat-
ing the gravel, sand and clay a fair
idea Of the relative value Of each
may be ascertained. II there is still
any doubt as to which is the best. a
short stretch OF road of each sample
will indicate within a few months,
not only the cementing value, but also
the wearing quality Of each.
II the gravel varies in size from
very small pieces to large pieces,

cured by separating the gravel with

WASHING WON'T RID
HEAD OF DANDRUFF
Dissolve 1t, That Best Way

The only sure way TO get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing; use enough to moistep the scalp,
and rub 1t in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this to- might, and by morning
most, If not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy lus-
trous. glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
If you want to preserve your hair
do by adj means get rid Of dandruff,
for nothing destroys the hair more
quickly. 1t not only starves the hair
and makes II fall out, but 1t makes It
stringy, straggly, dull, dry, brittle and
lifeless, and everyone notices 1t. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug store.
It is inexpensive, and never fails to do
