Some Road Building Is Like Shovelling
 Gold Coin in Mire

Nobody would think of shovell1ng gold coins on the surface of the road and leaving them there to be worn out" said Sidney s. von Loesecke, Chief Engineer off the Department of Highways of the A. l.. A.. yet that is what is being done every year. Thousands of dollars are spent for road improvements each year, but after the improvement is made 1t is a common occurrence to leave the new road to the mercy of the traffic and the weather.
 .'It is true that to-day the import ance of maintenance is being recog- nized more than it was in the past, but there are still communities that believe that a road surface is per- manent and should never wear out.
 "In some localities the other ex- treme is reached. People do not ap- preciate the economic, advantage of a first class road, but they are willing to maintain their dirt roads. This is commonly done by taking any ma terial that may be on hand, such as sods, clay, loam or gravel, which con- tains so much vegetble matter, that the least rain will produce surface that is frequently mud to the depth of two feet or more. Of course, it must be realized that these materials are not s::itaEle. ..-,o much fine ma terial does not make a hard road sur face or even a temporary surface, if the weather is wet, and the money that is thrown on road in this way, if spend iatelligently,w would result in vast improvement over the present conditions.
 
 Sometimes, the foreman of gang building a road, is under the !mpres-
