II is expressing a true religious In

We take our place In the succession
OF those who have sought TO make the

OF man when we seek to study and
understand the social duty OF the
rural church. The true christian re-
ligion is essentially social--its tenets

Righteousness. the church must chal-
lenge and seek to reform that social
order in which moral life IL ex-
pressed. While cherishing ideals of

as II can touch. and in no way can

GOOD
ROADS
ELIMINATE ALL ROAD GRADES
No Team Should Be Required TO Pull
TO Its Maximum cspselty-In-
terestIna Comparisons
fnr W. c. PALMERO


The average cost OF hauling q ton
one mile on the ordinary country
roads is rs cents, while the average
price OF hauling one ton one mile on
the railroads IL u cent. In other
words. the cost " hauling 10 80 times
as much with team and wagon as with
steam. This has been accomplished
by a number OF factors. Some OF
these can be and must be considered
In making good roads, that Is, TO have
a good hard roadbed and to eliminate
grades. The railroads do not. as
rule, have q grade OF more than three
per cent. while some OF them have
adopted two per cent as the maximum
grade, Two per cent would mean a
rise OF two feet in q hundred feet.
This would not be considered much OF
a grade on the ordinary road, but this
Is the way II works out
A team can exert q pull on a short
distance OF one-half its weight, but
for ordinary work the load II can pull
should not be over onetenth the
weight OF the team, for instance a
team weighing 1900 pounds can exert
q pull Of 800 pounds when II is to con-
tinue the work for, say, ten hours.
For q small stretch II would be able
to exert a pull OF 1900 pounds. This,
however. is putting forth all the ener-
U OF which the horses are capable.
II has also been found that the pull
required to take q ton load over ordi-
nary roads ia 100 pounds supposing.
then, that the load is one ton and the
wagon weighs 1900 pounds. this would
make q total Of $500 pounds. At the
rate Of 100 pounds q ton the total pull
would be 2s4 pounds. or a little less
than the team is capable OF hauling.
In fact, II could very nicely handle
500 pounds more, which would bring
the pull up to 300 pounds, and make
the load $500 pounds. This. however.
IL for the level. As q grade Is ap-
preached this. Of course. viii be In
creased. A i've per cent grade would
increase the DRAFT OF the wagon and
load Of $500 pounds by 31b pounds.
bringing It up to $40 pounds, which is
almost twice what the team can han
die as q regular thing. II the grade
Is Increased to 20 per cent, or 20 feet
In 100 feet, the draft on this same
load would come to little over 1900
pounds, or the maximum that this
team could pull when exerting its ut
most power. Amy grade beyond this
would mean that the load would have
to be reduced, and in fact no team
should be required to have to pull to
its maximum capacity. From this II
Is evident that increasing the grade
increases the draft very fast and
hence grades should Be eliminated a.
far as II Is possible.
On a macadam road q team can pull
three times az much on the level az
on the good earth road. but the In
crease IN drsft FOR grade remains the
same as on the earth road. so that
grade would be more Objectionable on
a macadam road than on a poor road.
On the level a 3,000-pound team could
easily handle four tons, while the
maximum grade that It could pull up
with such a load would be . ten per
cent grade and even that is more than
should be expected from the team.
