SURFACED

| A c-inch lean mix concrete base

nous surface of out of state material.

tain favorable conditions.
On hot days the surface becomes
more or less gummy. Communicating
matter scattered upon its surface is
hard to remove, thus 1t can not be
kept sanitary.
Soft, plastic and pliable upon hot
days, small waves roll up before each
wheel Of a vehicle, necessarily requir-
ing greater tractive effort than that
required upon strictly HARD sur
face. Hence less miles to the gallon
Of gas and a heavier pull for the hor-
SEES.
Insomuch as tar, asphalt and oily
matter will not nix with water It is
reasonable to suppose that a surface
composed Of such material would be-
come slippery when wet or frosty.
The bituminous surfacing being
patented material upon which excess
i've royalty Is demanded is manufact
ured in foreign factory whose pay
rolls are not contributary to local in
terests. One reason for the small per-
centage laid by the State Highway
Commission. sis
U. s. Dept. Agriculture, Bulletin
1856, page 10 gives 5000. 90 per miles
as an estimated cost Of resurfacing
certain eastern roads with bltuminous
concrete and other similar materials.
The consensus of opinion from 20
Highway Commissions from as many
different states, given to The Utah
Manufacturer Association, Is to the
effect that q bituminous surface isl
not suitable to present highway traffic
The Main street of Amer
lean Fork is also the main State high
way.
The two inch bituminous surface

lean Fork, is secret patented mater
ial, owned by a foreign corporation
for which the people pay an excessive
royalty Upon every yard laid.

would a straight monolithlc struc-
