DRIVERS CAN IMPROVE ROADS
Wear to Surface Can Be Prevented
by Driving Over Middle and Other
Less Used Parts.

Drivers can prevent wear to the
surfaces of the roads and even i'm
prove their condition If instead of
driving in one track or on the edge
of the road they will drive over the
middle and other less used parts of
the road when traffic Permits. The
one thing that is fatal above all
things to road surfaces, whether dirt
or paved. is driving in tracks, which
subjects one small part of the road
surface to all the traffic and damage
that the whole road accommodates.
Traffic should be evenly distributed
over the entire surface of the road.
and a little thoughtfulness and care
In this respect on the part Of driv-
ers will do much to add to the per-
manence and excellence of our road
ways.

IRONING DRUDeERY REDUCED
Use Clean, Smooth Irons and Have

Comfortable Height.

Have a clean, well-padded board or
table set at comfortable height.
Use clean, smooth irons. Rubbing
them occasionally with wax or paraffin
will keep them In good condition.
Rusty or dirty irons should be secured
with sand soap or bath brick,
washed, wiped dry, heated, waxed and
rubbed smooth.
Have clothes evenly dampened and
smoothly and tightly rolled.
Iron fabrics with the lengthwise
thread, IL possible, and iron as large

materials look best If ironed thorough

Iron first the parts that dry out
quickly and that will hang off the

Repair bills for damaged roads

extensive experimental work. if motor
trucks were designed to carry more
of the loads put on them over the
front axle and less over the rear
wheels, as at present. In the average
heavy truck of today the body is near
ly balanced on the rear axle. When
the truck strikes an obstacle or an ir-
regularity in the highway, the damage
done to the road surface by the rear
wheels is much greater than it would
be if the load were distributed on both
axles.

GOVERNMENT AID FOR ROADS
Up to November I, s72,744,ooo Had
Been Expended, and 1921 1922, 1873
More Allotted.

Discussing progress in road con-
struction since enactment of the fed.
eral aid legislation four years ago,
Thomas II. Mcdonald. chief of the
bureau Of public roads, reported that
up to November I. 3,19O miles of first
class" highway had been completed.
AS its share OF the cost the federal
government had expended 72,744OOO
and allotted S121 ,322 1913 more. Other
results of national legislation, Mr.. Nc
Donald said, had been the. establish
ment of state highway departments in
five states and the reorganization Of
such departments in 20 other states.

be no impact, regardless Of the speed
or weight of load. Since such an ideal
condition is practically impossible. road
engineers recognize that all factors
which increase or reduce the impact
of load are of the utmost impor-
lance in planning highway construc-
ton and regulation.
The placing of the larger part of
the load on the rear axle Is only one Of
several factors which lead to high i'm
pact forces. In general, the in
creased speed of the truck will in
crease the impact, hence the necessity
for keeping the operating speed within
reasonable limits Roads kept as
smooth as possible by careful main
tenance will reduce the possibility OF
trucks exerting impact and pressure
forces upon the highway surface. Cush-
ion or pneumatic tires also reduce
impact and cause less damage to
the highways than those of hard
rubber. especially if the latter are not
Kept in good repair.
