Mothers and fathers must realize
that every human being IL . distinct

traits and qualities: with something
distinctly his own which should make
him in some degree different from
everybody else. To great extent the
effect of school and home training has

GOOD
ROADS
MILEAGE OF CONCRETE ROADS
Growth In Popularity indicated BY
Rapid Increase In Recent Years
In United States.

The mileage Of concrete pavements
in the United States has increased
rapidly, and It is likely to continue
to increase. according to q new bulle-
tin of the United States department
of agriculture. This bulletin gives
the estimated amount Of concrete
pavement in the United States in 1914
a. 100000 square yards; in 1909 1t
was only $4,000 square yards.
The principal advantage Of concrete
pavements which have led to this in
crease in popularity are said to be:
1. Durability under ordinary trafnc
conditions.
2. A smooth, even surface Offering
little resistance.
3. Absence of dust and ease with
which 1t may be cleaned.
4. Comparatively small cost Of
maintenance until renewals are neces-
sary.
s. Availability az base for another
type Of surface II desirable.
6. Attractive appearance.
In commenting upon these advan-
tages the bulletin states that the dur
ability of concrete roads has not yet
been proved by actual practice. be-
cause there are no very old pave
ments a. yet In existence, but from
the condition of those which have un-
dergone several years service it
seems probable that they will be
found to wear well.
The disadvantages of concrete a.
q road surface are:
1. Its noise under horse trafic.
2. The wearing Of the necessary
Joints in the pavement, and the tend
ency to crack, with its consequent
rapid deterioration.
3. The difficulty Of repairs when
these become necessary.
In the past efforts have frequently
been made to overcome these objec-
tons to q certain degree by covering
the concrete pavement with bitumi-
nous wearing surface. At the present
time. the specialists In the department
hold that this cannot be economically
