DRAINING ROADS BY
BLASTS OF DYNAMITE
Missouri State Highway De-
partment Eliminating Mud
holes in Country Roads.

The Missouri State Highway depart
nient has recently issued bulletin
pointing out the advantages under
certain conditions of employing dy-
Mantle to improve the drainage Of wet
places on country roads. The depart
ment protests against throwing rocks
into soft mud holes, because the re-
suit of doing this Is usually to produce
a mud hole at each end of the place
where the rock is dumped If water
is in q roadbed, it must he drained
away; dumping rock into the mud
merely increases the area which is
wet by the water in the soil. The
Missouri department points out that
in many cases the water is retained by
a bed of clay or hardpan resting on a
stratum Of gravel or other material
through which the water can tricklo
readily. All that 1t is necessary TO do
to draw away the water from the
roadbed is to give 1t an opportunity of
passing through the impervious layer
into the gravel below. 1t iE therefore
recommended that holes he dug In the
clay and i charge of dynamite placed
in the bottom Of each. BY exploding
the dynamite a well will be formed a.
each hole through which, the water in
the roa1bcd will be drained into the
Gravel. This work should be done
30 that Il is certain the dynamite will
clear away a hole reaching down into
the stratum through which the water
will pass away. After the hole has
been completed, il should he filled
with coarse stone or gravel in order
that the dirt will not seal 1t and de-
stroy its usefulness.

HISTORY OF AUTO
BEGUN IN 1900
First Horseless Carrier Oper-
ated by Series of Springs
and Cords.
EARLY INVENTIONS FAILURES
Motors Were of Little Prac-
tical Use Until Gas En-
gines Were Adopted.

Ernest Saut, the celebrated French
journalist, who has made the history
of the automobile a study, writes that
as early as the thirteenth century, a
Partisan carriage maker worked upon
what he styled the horseiess carrier"
Tho he was not successful, his ideas
were eagerly seized upon by noted
scientists OF the day and much study
was devoted to what proved "A fruitless
search into the mechanical arts for
machinery that would drive vehicle
n certain distance by a series Of
springs and cords wound up like the
works of a clock.
1t was Roger Bacon who believed
in his day that a horseless vehicle
was a possibility and he predicted
such "A thing. He had no hopes of
seeing his prediction proved, telling
that science was not far advanced
enough for the undertaking of build
ing n horse!ess carriage.
In the middle of the seventeenth
century Jean Haustch, a mechanic OF
Nuremberg, invented small vehicle
of very light and frail construction
that he succeeded in propelling by
the aid of springs wound up by metal
cords, over very smooth, level roads
at the speed of two miles an hour.
The propelling power had to be
wound up every quarter of a mile.
The great amount of work involved,
compared to the little speed attained,
caused the inventor to abandon his
work after he had built but two or
three of the cars.
Gui Patin, about the same time,
worked for months on a vehicle that
he would take from Paris to Fon-
tainebleau within few hours and he
gave a wonderful exhibition of his in
VentiOn in the streets of Paris to q
very enthusiastic audience. He was
able to 60 three miles an hour, 1e-
verse his mechanism, back, turn and
even ascend an inclined road. This
machine was worked by springs.
He was, however, unsuccessful in
demonstrating to the scientists of his
day that his horseless vehicle pos
sessed any advantage over one drawn
by a horse, except that it did not re-
quire help. After a while the poor in
ventor was pronounced an illusionist,
and he fled from France a heart
broken and financially ruined man,
having expended all his fortune in
his invention
Dream OF Inventors.
The horseless vehicle continued to
be the inventors dream for many
years after Haustch's and Patin's un-
successful labors. In 1880 Blanch, an
inventor and investigator in aerosta-
tics, brought out n really good horse
less vehicle. His ear was propelled
by mechanism turned by hand;

NIT that, but-the great trouble with
the average automobile driver is, that
he stretches fifteen minutes into thlr-
ty, hustles through a once-over shave,

his car which has stood all night in

all it's worth thinking that he'll get
1t warmed up quickly and be on his

That's all right as far as it goes;
but. this same average man never
stops to think of the damage that
can be done by racing his engine in an
attempt TO heat 1t quickly Here are
couple Of facts that he ought 10
keep before him every morning when
he steps on the starter button:
First--When n motor stands all
night, the oil of course runs off the
cylinder walls and bearings, down in
to the crank case. Consequently it's
going to take few minutes to prop
erly lubricate these parts.
Second-The best way to warm
motor is to let t run slowly fer three
or four minutes. BY doing that you
give the oil chance to work up on to
the cylinder walls, pistons and bear
lngs.

Bate. I'VE will find there will be II
