Of the other types. The use Of the
road In wet and softened condition
is what causes the trouble. Under the
conditions where the earth road Ia q

struction and maintenance Is less than
that Of any other type. In dry weather

satisfactory to travel upon than any
other road. With neglected mainte-
nance, however, no other type Of road
can go to pieces and become impass-
able 80 quickly as an earth road. nor.
on the other hand, can any other type
be brought to satisfactory condition
for travel 30 quickly and 80 cheaply
after having been impossible From
these peculiar features 1t VIII be noted
that practically the entire problem
with earth roads Is their proper drain
