THE PROPER BURNING OF FUEL
OIL.

AT present prices Of oil The method
and appliances adopted for burning fuel
oil becomes Of paramount importance, as
their effectiveness has an important
bearing on the cost of factory operation.
In Louisiana, where oil has been burned
in the sugar factories for about twenty
years, the proper appliances for the han
ding and combustion Of this fuel have
been carefully studied and year by year
greater effectiveness has been secured.
The Rogers Higgins Company Hibernia
Building, New Orleans. are among the
makers OF fuel oil burning equipment
who have grown up, as it were with fuel
oil development in Louisiana. and during
the past many years they have studied
the whole fuel oil burning question:, es-
pecially in its relation to sugar factory
practice. and they believe that their
Rogers Higgins burner. as now de-
signed, is extraordinarily effective, es-
p~ecially in sugar house work. They
have issued Circular 1922, which they
Waot 10 place in the hands OF sugar fac
tory owners, engineers and administra
tors in Cuba and all other countries where
the consumption of fuel oil is in vogue.
This circular gives some valuable data
on fuel oil burning, especially in sugar
factories, and should be asked for by ali
who bum fuel oil, no matter whether
they contemplate installing Rogers-Hig-
gins equipment or not. L0ui81anlQ Plan

ROAD :.
Bull DING
DRAINAGE FOR GOOD ROADS
Essential Feature of an improved
Hiohway-Another Requisite Is
Firm Foundation.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
An essential feature of an improved
road Is adequate drainage. Thorough
drainage is SO necessary that it Is
practically impossible to maintain sat
isfactory road unless it be given prop
er attention. Another prime require
ment wherever a hard surface road Is
to be constructed is firm and unyield-
ing foundation. AS the quality of the
soil has an important influence on the
proper method of drainage and the type
of foundation to be employed, much
care and study must be devoted to the
nature. type, and character of the
soils in the section through which 1t is
proposed to build road.
The most important primary soils
are classified as gravel, sand. and clay,
but often many of the secondary or
mixed soils. because of their more gen.
eral occurrence in connection with
bodybuilding operations, are equally
important. Such types as loan, mari,
gumbo. and hardpan are representa-
tive Of this order.
In the design of road the drainage
structures are planned to take care
of water under three general conditions
rain that falls on a road surface or
grade: rain that falls on contiguous
land and flows in accumulated volume
toward the road; and ground water
from any immediate source To meet
these conditions use is found for spe-
cial structures, including longitudinal
side bitches, usually parallel, or APP
proximately parallel to the center line;
intercepting bitches to accommodate
water whose approach so close to the
roadway as the side bitches is likely
to cause injury; lateral bitches or Gull
verts to conduct accumulated water
away from or under the road !;
and subdrains. In order to plan intel
iigently system of drainage for any
particular road, it is necessary to con-

slider not only the local character Of
the soil composing the roadbed. but
also the topography of the adjacent
land, the amount and rate of rainfall
and the availability of material suit
able for use in constructing drains.
Surface drainage systems for reads
consist of side bitches along the road.
paved cutters (Which are develop
ment Of side bitches and replace them)
open intercepting bitches constructed
to prevent water from reaching the
road, and lateral or relief bitches to
carry off the water which collects In
the side bitches or In the intercepting
bitches. Culverts and inclosed drains,
which are constructed for the purpose
of removing storm water from the side
bitches or cutters, are essentially
part of the surface drainage system,
and are not to be confused with sub
drains which serve an entirely differ
ent purpose.
Where the grade of road is so
steep that the ordinary earth side
bitches cannot be maintained satisfac-
torily at q reasonable cost, or where
earth side bitches would be insanitary
or appear unsightly, 1t is customary to
provide paved cutters for removing the
surplus water.
Drop inlets and catch basins are
used to conduct wafer from side ditch
es or cutters into underground drains
or culyerts. On country roads they are
used most frequently on side hill loca-
tons where the water collecting In the
upper side ditch or gutter can be re-
moved from the road at intervals by
means Of cuivert across to the low
er side. Drop inlets usually are sum
cient, and catch basins seldom are used
In country road work, except where IL
is especially desirable to prevent the
slit and other foreign material carried
BY the water from getting into the
underground Drainage structure.

HELPS FOR THE HOME NURSE

The home nurse in caring for a
patient with acute communicable
disease must consider The welfare
OF the family and the community
in ommon with the sick one. Ev-
cry precaution must be taken 10 pre-
vent the spread Of the disease. The
first step Is isolation of the patient
The patient should have "a room
90 herself, and no one should be al
lowed TO enter this sick room for
any reason whatever except those
caring for her The sick room
should be situated as far away from
the rest OF the family as possible
A bath room for the exclusive use
of the patient and the attendant is
highly desira BILE IL is also a good
plan 10 reserve the room adjoining
the patients room for use OF the at
tendant exclusively. As IL is impos-
siDle in "A great many homes to give
so much space each family must
make the best arrangements il can.
remembering always that while the
board of health usually enforces
more or less rigid rules concerning
the going and coming Of those who
live and work in the outside world
the making and enforceme Mt OF rules
in the home must be left nearly en-
tirely TO the good judgment and con-
science Of the home nurse.
In the beginning all unnecessary
articles should be removed from the
sick room. Leave nothing that can
not be either boiled. burned, scrub
bed or otherwise thoroughly clean
ed. In summer see that the win
