STATE ROAD WORK BEGUN.
Section About 1000 Feet Long On, Put
ney Road Is Selected-About $4,000
To Be Expended There.

Road Commissioner A. A. Wallace and
a force of men have begun expending
the state highway money available in
Brattleboro this year and are putting in
q stretch of state highway on the Put
ney road
The section selected is about 1000
feet long, beginning at the Gilfeather
place and running southerly. The road
has been plowed up for a part of the dis
tance,
There is available for state work this
year $1,000, and it is figured that this
job will cost about $4,000, leaving about
$500 to be expended in some other place,
but the commissioner may find that this
job will cost more than was planned, de-
pending on the condition of the soil
About a dozen men and two teams are
employed and it is expected that the
work will take about a month.
The surface of the present road for n
depth of about eight inches is good grav-
ell, and this is being used for gravel road
work near the Mckinney and Goodall
places. Under this surface the soil is
mixture of gravel and clay and is not
suitable for pure gravel work, but it
may be used in widening roads outside
the main travelled part.
1t is the commissioner Is plan to dig
down about two feet and fiji with coarse
gravel and sand Long stones set on
end are, part. of the usual material in
building state roads, but in this par
ticular section the state highway depart
ment thinks the coarse gravel and sand
will be all right. If it is found that
this does not afford sufficient drainage
some side drains will be put in to take
care of the water
There is now no piece of state road
on the Putney road between the village
and town line and this is one of three
sections between here and Bellows Falls
that need fixing up to make good run
ming surface between the two villages.
Mr., Wallace is employing several high
school boys on the roads this summer.
They are distributed among workmen of
experience, are doing mems work, re-
receiving men s pay and are giving gem
eral satisfaction, and incidentally tho
work is giving the boys good experience.
