BEST ROADS IN WORLD.
United States Rapidly Pushing to the
Front as a Road Builder.

Front as a Road Builder.
The United States, through state and
federal aid, is approaching an era of
road building which within the next
ten years, it is predicted. will give to
this country the best system of high
ways in the world. Progress has been
flow because of opposition In some
states by the farmers to loans and the
fear on the part of the voters that the
system would fall into the hands Of
politicians. Most of the states have
built improved highways by bond is
sues. Where this system has been en-
ployed the greatest progress has been
made.
| The problem Of road transportation
is one of the chief questions before this
country, says J. E. Pennypacker. chief
of the division Of road economics of
the department of agriculture. 1t costs
! the farmer % cents a ton a mile to
haul his product to the railroad or the
consumer, where the roads are unim-
proved. More than 350,000,000 tons are
the bill for hauling is $65OOOO,OOO. The
! cost per ton mile for hauling on hard
surfaced roads does not exceed 10
cents.
The automobilist is paying largely for
the building Of the good roads. There
are 10000 automobilists registered in
the United States VINO pay a total OF
more than S13,0OO00O annually in regis
| tration fees. Forty-two states have es-
tablished highway departments for ed
ucational or administrative work, and
Of these thirty have made appropria-
lions in aid of road construction or
maintenance. In all S20S,0OO,00O had
been appropriated from state funds be-
tween 1891 and Jan. l, 1915, for con-
struction, maintenance, administration
and educational road work, and a to-
tai of about $1,000 miles of improved
roads Is the result These roads were
built for the most part as joint state
and local undertaking, so that a large
local outlay not included in the state
total was involved.
Accounting u lue latest figures re-
ceived by the department Of agricul-
ture Pennsylvania has built more than
1000 miles of road at a cost of more
than $2O,000,O00. New York has ex-
pended $SOOOO,0OO. Massachusetts and
Connecticut have raised their funds for
road building by bonds and the apply
ing of the automobile license fees for
that purpose.
Under average cond; ions m" cadam
roads can be built III southern states at
from $4,000 to $4,000 a mile, gravel
roads at from $1,000 to $1,000 a mile
and sand clay ard tonsoil roads at
from $500 to $500 2 m'le IN Now
England and the other eastern states
T9caIaw T00G~ cost from $4,000 to
$4,000 mile, gravel roads $1,000 to
$4,000 ard hituminors macadam from
$4,000 TO $1,000.
The average cost of state highways
constructed in Ohio in 1913 was $S,3S3.
In California the first 800 miles of the
state system of highways cost $S,143
a mile

GOVERNMENT AID
FOR GOOD ROADS
Ways In Which Department Of
Agriculture Offers Help.
ADVICE TO COMMUNITIES.
Lecturers Will Be Sent With Lantern
Slides to Give information on Road
improvement; Also the Department
of Agriculture Stands Ready to Give
Advice and Superintendence.

Prepared by United States department
of agricultural
Communities interested in the i'm
prOvement of roads are recommended
by the United States department of
agriculture to apply for lecturer on
the subject Lecturers will be sent at
the governments expense wherever
there Is reason to believe that audi
ences will be large enough to make the
expenditure of time and money worth
while. Whenever possible it is, of
course. desirable for a number of COM
muntieS i'll the same vicinity to make
arrangements for lectures at the same
time, since in this way the travelling
expenses for each stop made by the
lecturer are materially reduced.
The number of lecturers ut the dis
posal Of the department is limited, and
1t is not always possible therefore to
comply with every request. When a
lecturer cannot be sent. however the
department will loan q set of suitable
lantern slides to any responsible local
association or individual who will pay
the express charges. The only require
ment is that the sides be made of ac-
tive and practical use in the cOmmuni-
ty and that they be returned in good
condition in INnety DAYS In addition
a brief outline of n lecture to accom-
pany tine slides Will be forwarded on
request.
In addition to this educational work
the department is always ready to re-
SpOnd to requests for practical assist
ance which may take the form of spc-
cial advice and inspection. supermtend-
ence of county roads, road surveys,
experimental road work, bridge work
or the development Of Il model system
Of highways fer a county. TO obtain
such assistance local authorities should
secure blank form from the office of
public roads on which to make appIi-
cations. Requests from corporate vii
lagos or cities cannot be met, however
Bridge work is one branch of road
building in which the department may
be of particular service to local author
tiles. Typical designs have been pre-
pared, and copies OF these can be fur
nished ON request. y few minor altera-
tons would probably make such Il de-
sign suitable for special conditions, or
an engineer may be assigned to inspect
the site and offer suggestions. In some
cases designs by bridge companies have
been reviewed by the department for
the benefit of local officials.
Road materials are also being contin-
ually tested by the department and the
information thus obtained is available
for any community in doubt as to the
kind of road they purpose to build
Similar tests can also be secured on
dust layers, such as road oils and tars.
and the department will furnish to
any one instructions as to selection and
shipment of samples. The tests are
made free of charge when they are de
sired in connection with public i'm
provements.

GRAVEL ROADS IN IOWA.
Have Proved Satisfactory, as Is Exem-
pIified by Greene County Highways.

Have Proved Satisfactory, as Is Exem-
pIified by Greene County Highways.
The question Of surfacing roads Is
being given more than the usual share
of attention this year throughout the
length and breadth of the corn belt
because of the impossible condition Of
highways in many localities, due to
the abnormal rainfall, says the Iowa
Homestead. Automobile owners are
literally up in arms over the present
system of roadmaking, and of course
in the corn belt these are numbered by
the hundreds of thousands at the pres
'ent time The number is being rapid
ly supplemented by farmers, who are
complaining of their inability to mar
ket produce under favorable conditions,
and, all in all, the agitation is direct.
Ing special attention to ways and
means of improving dirt roads in some
other fashion than that of dragging
them.
Because of the attention given to the
subject it Is interesting to turn to the
example of one county in Iowa, where
there are 100 miles of good gravel
roads. This system of roadmaking,
which has been in evidence in Greene
county for many years, has given to
that county a reputation which ex-
tends far beyond the boundary of the
state.
In the making of these roads a good
1n 80 rCt hrA Of
an eight inch coating of gravel is
placed in the center of the highway
1t requires approximately 2,200 yards
per mile of finished road, and most of
this has been put in place at cost of
70 cents per yard. This cost includes
the leveling of the gravel to width of
eight feet in the center of the road,
and in addition the amount mentioned
will make strip four inches deep,
four feet wide on each side of the
more heavily graveled strip. This
means that sixteen feet of the highway
Is surfaced in such way that it makes
firm roadbed, one that will stand all
reasonable traffic in all kinds Of
weather.
1 It is not herein intimated that the
example of Greene county can be fol-
lowed In every county. because of the
lack Of similar surfncing materials.
However, the experience thus far In
that county indicates that enthusiasm
for surfaced roads very rapidly
spreads. A ten mile strip will be grav-
cled this year. and, satisfactory as this
material has been, there is some senti-
ment being created in the country ia
torable TO the use of more permanent
material, such as concrete or brick.
I The supposed advantage of these ma
terials over that of gravel is that for a
series of years there will be no main
tenance cost, whereas in the case of
gravel there is more or less patching
and repairing work required every sea-
son.

THE CURING OF TOBACCO.
Importance of Artificial Heat anc
Proper Ventilation.

Importance of Artificial Heat ano
Proper Ventilation.
prepared by United States department OF
agricultural
1t is quite possible to dry the tobacco
leaf without curing it, and it is also
largely possible to cure the leaf with
out drying it. 1t is essential that too
rapid drying be avoided In order to
afford an opportunity for the curing
changes to take place.
The curing proceeds very slowly OF
Is stopped completely at temperatures
below 60 degrees F., while the drying
the barn is dry. In other words, the
leaf under these conditions is likely
to dry without curing. On the other
hand, curing proceeds very rapidly at
so degrees to 100 degrees F., while the
rate of drying can be controlled by
regulating the humidity in the barn.
The necessary conditions for good
curing are that the tobacco be placed
in the barn III sound condition, that
the temperature be kept sufficiently
high to allow the curing changes to
proceed normally and that the rate OF
drying be controlled by regulating the
humidity so as to avoid either too rapid
or too slow drying.
Pole sweat, or house burn, which is
so well known in those tobacco pre-
ducing sections where artificial heat is
not used in curing, is one Of the results
of too slow drying in the more adj
vanced stage Of curing. Pole sweat is
nothing more than the rotting or de-
caying of the leaf. The decay of the

ADAPTED FOR USE OF ARTI FICIAL HEAT.
leaf is due to miCro-Organisms OF
germs" which are active only at mod
crate temperatures and in the presence
of an abundance of moisture. There
will be little or no pole sweat so long
as the temperature remains below 60
degrees +. or the relative humidity is
less than 50 per cent. 1t can be easily
and completely controlled by the COM
bined use Of heat and ventilation.
The two most important reasons why
artificial heat should be used more or
less in curing practically all tobacc0s
are that a. this affords the only prac-
ticable means of preventing the decay
of leaf caused by excessive moisture
during wet weather and o. tobacco
does not cure properly at low tenn
peratureS, however favorable the
weather may be otherwise, fact of
special Importance in northern tobacco
districts. Where no heat is used it
frequently happens that even after the
curing is largely completed wet periods
Of weather bring the tobacco into such
moist condition that the color is great
ly darkened and the quality of the to-
bacco otherwise injured, while If cold
weather prevails during the curing the
leaf simply dries without otherwise de-
velOping the desired properties of cure
tobacco.
During the first stage of the curin.c,
in which the yellow color dovclor;,
the principal value OF the heat is to
! maintain favorable temperature in
the barn. and during this period great
care must be taken to avoid too rapid
drying. 1t is evident that the barn
must be reasonably tight 50 as to pre-
vent the rapid escape Of the heat and
moisture. On the other hand the barn
must have proper means of ventilation
during wet weather; otherwise the air
in the barn soon becomes saturated,
the drying will be checked, and there
! will be danger of pole sweat when the
second stage Of the curing is reached.
No heating system will give satisfac-
tory results in a barn which is not

cient capacity. \ little heat is fire.
quently worse than none. Small open
fires on the floor of the barn, prefer
ably in small shallow pits, have been
extensively used. The evident points
in favor of open fires as a source of
heat in curing are simplicity and cheap
ness. Where wood can be used this is
the cheapest method of applying heat.
Charcoal is generally preferred for cur
ing cigar tobacco, however, for the rea-
son that it burns with very little smoke.
A large number of small fires are bet
ter than a few larger fires, and they
should not be more than six OF eight
feet apart each way Small heaters are
occasionally used for burning charcoal.
