Roads may be divided into three
general classes, as regards construc-
tion--dirt roads, various kinds of
macadams, and pavements such as
brick, concrete, asphalt, etc.
When choosing the kind of mater
ial to be used, take into consideration
the amount of traffic measured in
tons, the size of the individual
roads, the kinds of vehicles used for
transportation purposes, the pro-
visions made for maintenance, the
cost of available materials, and the
amount of technical skill necessary in
using such materials
Some of the materials or combina-
tiOns of materials which might enter
into the construction of temporary
country roads in Missouri are earth,
shale, slate, ebert, gravel, and rock,
or sand mixed with clay or gumbo.
For heavy traffic on through routes
payements may be required, but
these are not ordinarily classed as
Country roads"
Some of the things which deter
mine the cost of clearing and grub
bing; amount and kind of material
to be excavated and amount of filling
to be done; amount of ditching for
surface drainage and tiling for sub
drainage; number and sizes of stream
crossings necessitating culverts or
bridges; cost of securing and placing
material.
The three principal divisions of
actual road making are location,
construction, and maintenance In
planning road it is necessary that
we take into consideration all three
of these steps, since proper location
affects the cost of construction and
may materially reduce the cost OF
maintnance.
Some of the things to be considered
in locating a road are easy grades,
good drainage, exposure to sunshine,
elimination of culverts and bridges by
avoiding unnecessary creek crossings,
directness and the number of farms
to be served in a given length of

Emmett, Kan. June 2S.-Jess VIII
lard was born on a farm five miles
from Emmett, Kan. December 20,
1851, the son of Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. B.
willard
This young Kansan, who at thirty
three years of age was destined to be-
come the pride of the white race and
enjoy the plaudits of the nation-aye,
of the world-never had the parental
guidance of a father. for he died two
months before Jess was born. 1t fol-
lows that Jess Wizards life as young
man was an uphill fight
Jess Willard attended the country
schools near Emmett but did not fol-
low school work very long. not so
much because of the lack of oppor-
tunity as from his dislike for books
and indoor life. He was a true lover
of the horse. the COW and the steer.
and of outdoor sports of all kinds.
His excessive love of the horse natur-
ally suggested the profession that
brought him in touch with horses. SO
he early took up with the horse trad
ing, which business he carried on quite
extensively. Subsequently. when he
grew to manhood. he built a livery
barn at Emmett and had personal
charge of it for three years.
During his residence in Emmett
Jess attracted no particular attention.
except because of his physical size, be-
ing quite above the average. He led
an uneventful life. and exercised his
strength and agility only as a matter
of defense.
He married Miss Hattie Evans in
1907, and to their union were born
three daughters and one son, the lat
ter named Jess Jr. About ten years
ago he, with his family, went to Okla
homa just about the time the Car
Morris White Hope boom was at its
highest. Jess sized up Morris and re-
marked to himself that if Morris could
whip Jack johnson he saw no reason
why he could not some day be cham
pion. This was the first time Jess
ever gave prize fighting a serious
thought
