East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1917-09-20

With storm skies over the caravan always,
and rain Storm ard snow storm whipping fore
and aft, that pilot car fought It's way over the
desert, the Rockies, and the Prairies.
It ploughed those four Goodrich Tires through
the slush and snow, the scattered rock and
frozen mud Of water guttered trails on
desert and mountain. Even in the fat lands,
those tires waded tarlke mud, sank into quag-
n1ires, and forded food-swollen streams.
The pictures here, reproductions of photo
graphs-the hub-rnired car ardWheels clOgged
with clay-tell what those tires endured.

Page after page of the rare old story,
The tale OF the lords Of the last from

Swift mustangs down the long course

especially where clay may be obtained
readily and only limited funds are
available for the improvement
Loan.
Loan Is a soil composed Of ciay Aad
sand, mixed with a considerable per-
centage Of finely divided vegetable mat
ter or humus. The quality of loan
from the standpoint Of road building
depends very largely upon the proper
tons in which sand and clay are pres
ent and on the character of these ma
terials. Loan that contains about 60
per cent Of moderately coarse sand and
from 20 to 30 per cent Of good cement
ing clay usually will make an excellent
road surface for light traffic. Material
Of this kind is drained easily and is
fairly stable, even when wet. Another
advantage Is that It will not become
very dusty under traffic in dry weather
and frequently will cement together
into a very hard, compact surface.
Roads surfaced with such material are
commonly called "topsolr" roads, be-
u the topsoil of cultivated fields
possesses the desired characteristics
more frequently than that to be OBJ
tanned from any other source.
Gravel.
Gravel is made up Of small rounded
particles Of stone, which occur in ma
ture and are sufficiently large to be
retained on a Observation-Disclosures
screen. Gravelly soils are distributed
widely in the United States, and vary
widely In quality. In general, when a
soil contains as much as 40 to 80 per
cent of gravel and sufficient clay or
other cementing material to bond the
gravel particles together, 1t proves a
very satisfactory material for con-
structlon of roads, because it is drained
easily and is very stable when com
pacted.
Mari is clay containing a relatively
large percentage of carbonate of lime.
1t grades into calcareous clay and ar
gillaceous limestone, and its value for
road building Is variable. In general
this material has few advantages Over
the best varieties Of ordinary clay for
use in constructing a road, unless the
percentage of lime carbonate Is suffi-
ciently high to give 1t, when compacted,
approximately the character of lime
stone. The best varieties of mari be-
come very hard and compact when
placed in a road surface, and in some
localities this material is used extern
sively for road surfaclng.
Gumbo.
Gumbo is essentially loan contain
ing a high percentage each of clay and
decayed vegetable matter and u very
low percentage of sand. Gumbo has Il
strong tendency to absorb and hold wa
ter, and therefore Is hard to drain. 1t
is harder to handle in u road surface
than clay, because the vegetable matter
is an added weakness, but if protected
from surface water by Il proper sys-
TEN Of drainage, it may be used to con-
struct a fair subgrade for supporting
some type of lmpervious road crust.
GumbO has n relatively high capillary
power, and for this reason its occur
renee in II rOadbed usually will necessi-
tate the use of subdrainage, even under
conditions favorable for surface drain
age.
