STATE TO MAINTAIN ROADS
Amount Exceeding $1eo,ooo, 900 Ex-
pended Annually for Construction
and Care Of Highways.

The realization has become quite
general that, in order to render maxi
mum service, state highway depart
ments should be given some measure
of control over the construction and
maintenance of local roads. For this
class of roads an amount exceeding
SIG, 100000 is expended annually. with
comparatively little result to show in
the form of improved road mileage for
this great outlay. The state of Iowa
has met this situation by placing all
the road work in the state under the
direction of the state highway depart
ment.
Traffic is increasing 50 rapidly as to
cause excessive wear upon the roads,
especially in the vicinity Of congested
centers of population. This results
in a heavy annual maintenance cost.
averaging. in the large Eastern states
not less than $3.50 per mile per annum.
Many experiments have been made
In the effort to devise types Of road
which can be maintained at relatively
low cost. Thus far. aside from the
cheaper forms of construction, the
states are depending upon the various
forms Of bituminous macadam. con-
crete and vitriaed brick road.

BEAUTY OF OUR STATE ROADS

Of Maryland Court.

The decision of the court of appeals
sustaining the validity of the law
which confers upon the state board of
forestry regulative power and author
fly in the matter of planting or cutting
and pruning trees along the state high
ways. is Of potential importance in
connection with the latest proposal
to improve the side lines of the state
roads by the planting of forest or fruit
trees. The state road law apparently.

such a scheme of improvement, says

commission, there is clause in the
law that opens the way for such
plan Of Identification.
The state forestry board would per-
haps be the agency through which
such a plan could be best realized.
The activities of the annual arbor
days have not been largely resultful in
the matter of roadside tree planting.
Such a scheme can only be brought
to realization through systematic and
persistently maintained effort. But
the idea is a good one and should be
brought to realization even though it
is necessary for the state to invest
some money in the undertaking. Moth
ing would more conduce to the beau

The first and last commandment in
earth road maintenance is to keep the
road well drained. To insure good
drainage the bitches should be kept
open, all distractions removed and
smooth crown maintained. Side
bitches of ample capacity should be
maintained with sufficient fall to dis
pose of surface water. These bitches
In most places can be constructed and
repaired with a road machine. The
road machine or grader may in gen.
eral be used effectively for this work.
The machine should be used when the
soil is damp so that it will pack and
bake into a hard crust.
All vegetable matter, such as sods
and weeds, should be kept out of the
road, as they make spongy surface
which retains moisture. Clods are
also Objectionable for they soon turn
to dust or mud. Bowlders or loose
stones are equally Objectionable il a
smooth surface is to be obtained.
A split-log drag or some similar de-
vice lS very uSe1ul In MAINTAINING the
surface after suitable bitches and
cross-sections have once been con-
structed. This drag can also be
used to advantage on most gravel
roads as well as on earth road. The
principle involved in dragging is that
clays and most heavy soils will puddle
IL worked when wet and set very hard
when dry. The little attention that
the earth road needs must be given
promptly, therefore. and at the prop
er time II the best results are to be
obtained.
In dragging roads only a small
amount of earth is moved, Just enough
to fill the ruts and depressions with
thin layer Of plastic clay or earth
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1916-05-05

which packs very hard so that the
next rain, instead of finding ruts and
depressions in which to collect, runs
of, leaving the surface but little af-
fected.
Using the Drag.
The drag should be light and should
be drawn over the road at an angle OF
about As degrees. The driver should
ride on the drag and should not drive
faster than q walk. One or two round
trips. the first straddling the wheel
tracks. is usually sufficient to fill the
ruts and smooth the surface. II neces-
sary. the road should be dragged after
every bad spef of weather. when the
soil is in proper condition to puddle
well and still not adhere to the drag.
II the road is very bad it may be
dragged when very wet and again
when it begins to dry out. A few trips
over the road will give the operator
an idea as to the best time to drag.
Drag at all seasons but do not drag
dry road.
The side slope or crown of an
earth road should be about one inch
to the foot. II the crown becomes too
high it may be reduced by dragging
toward the ditch instead of from it.
II the drag cuts too much, the hitch
should be shortened and the driver
should c,ap&e his position on the drag.
II 1t 10 necessary to protect the face
of the drag with q strip of iron. IT

A great amount Of cleaning up was
accomplished during last week, and
1T ia noticeable that the good work
did not cease with the end of clean
up week. Some unoocupied property
seems to be in the worst condition at
this time, and 1t Is probable that
the village authorities will have to
look after the cleaning UP of these
places. The village ordinances pro-
vide ample authority for DUNG such
work and taxing the expense against
the property. The example of neigh
bors ls the very greatest inducement
for a man to clean up and beautify
his premises, and this will prove
doubly so when theme is some assur-
ance that Ii our neighborhng property
owner does not look after such work,
the village authorities will do 1t for
him.
