worse. to waste money in work Of
this sort with the use OF bad material.
In building culvprt the road
builder must observe three funda-
mental requirements g,
|. The first, requirement. is that, the
culvert must be SO placed that it will
drain across the road, and under the
r";ld, Of course, all the water that is
ecltvercd to it by, the side ditch along
The road. II this be not done. the
earth along tile road and about tho
end of the cutrert Milf be wet and
Soggy the most Of tie year and the
culrcrt opening will require almost
constant repairs. ). Repairing n high
Way cMlvcrt is relatively more, ex-
r"nsixc than similar work in a town
because OF the waste Of time OF the
worEihcn in going to and from Tie
point at which the work must bt done.
In placing Tie clilvert care must also
be taken thnt'it' will not be !cl0iSp,
by brush and leaves, and this duty
must bcidisrllargcd by the road super
visor, and: will be, If he is worth his
salt.
3 The second and very important
requirement in the building Of Il cul-
vert is that Its ends must be protected
by some kind Of Il wall or facing car
ricd down to firm foundations II
this he done, it will be found that the
end OF the cuiyert will not be ,iider-
cut by the water AMI will nor be
broken, frost will not in,i,lre il, the
surrounding or superintendent earth
will not slide down into the ditch in
front of the opening. and. with the
further necessary work of Keeping the
feeding bitches clear, The cillvrrt will
be able to take care of all the water
alongside the road. =
3. The third requirement is that the
culrrrt must be made 50 strong that
il Will not become broken and SO tight
that it Will not leak. These ends. can,

Ierminqd, by the ,relatiye cost Of the
several materials at the locality
where the cdl3crt Is to Be built and
by the distance from the top of the
culvert to tile Surface of the road.
