GOOD ROADS IN NEW ZEALAND
Concrete Declared Mort Satisfactory
In Land Of Heavy RaIns--cheaper
In Long Run.

The New Zealand authorities, both
local and national, are carefully study
ing the subject of good roads, realiz-
ing that this Is the best way to open
up the hinterland of the dominion. The
roads of the country, In the main, are
not in very good condition. There are
some good stone roads, about the larg-
er centers, but few of them extend out
more than % or 30 miles. Their up
keep has been found very expensive,
especially in the northern part Of the
country, since the rainfall Is heavy
and washouts are numerous because
the stone used Is soft and grinds up
rapidly, the Scientific American states.
OF late much has been said In re-
gard to the construction Of concrete
highways, and 1t is thought that this
will be far cheaper In the long run
than the stone roads as they are now
constructed, for the reason that the
upkeep will be so very greatly reduced.
1t is estimated that mile Of 12-foot
concrete road four inches thick could
be built in New Zealand for $1,000
more than a mile of ordinary stone
road, on which there would be a saving
in upkeep for the first five years of at
least $1,000, while at the end Of ten
years there would be saving Of ST.
600 or $4,000.

Dear Bud:-Was very glad to hear
from you and to know all the folks
are well. You asked me to tell you
all | could about the war. Well as
Sherman says, "War is H |
have been firing a locomotive engine
nearly ever sinre l have been here.
We are near the firing line and it is
very exciting at times, and at others
you can't hardly tell there is a war
and you were in the good old U. S. A.
We are very blue about now. Snow
is 10 inches deep and very cold and
it is so near Christmas. You don't
konw how much I would give to spend
Christmas at home with you. We
were the first Americans under shell
fire, but none of us were hurt. We
have gotten 50 used to it that we
pay it much attention now and
we feel about as safe as if we were
at home. I suppose you all got a lot
of dope about twelve of us engineers
being killed in the trenches didn't
you? Well that was all a mistake.
None of us were killed. Wish you
would hand this letter to Mr.. Kincan-
non and let him publish it as it might
relieve some good mother who has a
son over here and has not heard from
him. We often get papers from the
y. S. A. and they report things lots
worse than they really are. We don't
think it will be so awful long until
this war will close and we will be back
home, however, we can't tell. Give
my best regards to everybody and
write as often as you can. Hope
Stanley has gotten all right and back
at home.
AS ever,
