STATE ALREADY PROvID-
ING ROAD MAINTENANCE

II is one thing to build road in
Lincoln County and another thing to
maintain it. That this fact is being
realized fully by the State Highway
Commission in planning the Newport.
Corvallis road is positively proven in
the plans for the rocking of the road
from Corvallis to Newpor. and the
7 2-10 mile Tum Tum section Here
are some figures taken from the pro.
posals for state highway construction
Iof the Corvallis-Newport highway.
These bids will be received by the
Highway Commission on May 26th
1921. AS both sections are practically
the same length the quantities are
identical. The bid quantities on the
lNewport-TOledo surfacing are as tol.
lows, quantity being in cubic yards:
Item NO. Item Quantity
I27-Broken stone surfacing 10000 yds
i2S-Broken stone for main
tenance 1850 yds
On page 6 of the specifications ap-
pears the following:
Broken Stone for Maintenance
Under this item, the contractor will be
required to construct piles of main
tenance materials. These piles shall
be placed at intervals of approx
mately seven cubic yards OF material
each. Each pie shall be composed OF
material fully meeting the specifica.
tions for either the top course or the
base course Of the surfacing as may
be ordered by the engineer"
Remember that, according to a let
ter from The Highway Commission as
earlier published in the Leader, after
April 1st, the State takes over and
maintains all cooperative county.
state highways. Therefore, it must be
clear TO all that the maintenance on
this road is being paid for by the
Highway Commission. Think of it
piles OF rock, seven cubic yards of
rock every 200 feet along the road
Certainly these quantities will fill
lot Of ruts ard fiji them ~ the right
lime, that Is, when first mada.

FRED HORNlNG SAYS CON-
MISSION HAS RIGHT IDEA

In discussing the plans and specifi.
cations for rocking the Newport-To-
ledo section Of the highway, Fred
Horning thinks that the plan Of using
fne-size rock, as provided by the High
way Commission, will be the real way
to build road.
According to the specifications, all
broken stone shall be crushed to a
minimum size of one and one-half
inches, at least 1870 and not more
than 800 shall be retained on q one.
fourth inch screen, and shall be well
graded from coarse to fine. These
material are put down in two layers,
the coarse frs and finished with the
fine. The road is to be eight inches
thick and twelve feet wide. This
means that we will not always run in
the same track and form a rut, and
furthermore, with the abundant main
tenance material provided, 1t will be
an easy proposition to throw in a
little additional surfacing and drag
the roads to smooth it up in the win
ter time.

Every community in the Uniteo
States is talking about good roads
and will have to provide them sooner
or later, Why not Now?
Good Roads mean Progress, for
they are not Just routes of travel but
rather arteries of commerce, they are
of more Importance to Lincoln County
than railroads.
During the railway strike of 1919
in England it was their good roads
that saved the interior communities
from actual starvation, If we mad
railway strike where would Lincoln
County be from November to May
with our present road system.
A Good road is always bargain
whatever we put into them will re.
turn with compound interest.
We may pay more for roads than
we think We ought, but we shall pay
less than they are worth to the people.
Our definition, "of what is a good
road" A good road is one which Is
always ready and safe for all kinds
of traffic and that means a macadam
road, kept ready for all time, at State
expense.
Everything you eat, wear, use, buy,
SELL or play with, has to be hauled
over a road at some stage Of produc-
tion or distribution. Bad roads
throttle distribution. Good roads
facilitate distribution and add to the
social life of any community. A
progressive community must have
good roads. A common sense study
OF the proposed road plan adopted by
the Highway Commission for Lin.
coin will prove to you that at last we
are on the right track to secure good
roads.
