WIRE MESH GOOD FOR ROADS
British Army in Egypt Used Chicken
Wire in Building Temporary
Routes In Sand.

The British army In Egypt has
used chicken-wire in the construction
of roads.
Loose sand was smoothed and lev
eled and then covered with chicken
wire. which was firmly pegged down.
The passage of troops or motor
transports seemed to affect the road
very little, while the passage OF ami
mal-drawn vehicles damaged the i'm
provised road badly. However, 1t was
possible to make repairs quickly and
the road was easily kept in good con-
dition
OF course this wire-mesh road was
purely temporary expedient for the
military. The old Romans still hold
the palm as the champion road-mak'
ers of the world. Many foundation
of the roads they made Is still In use
In Europe, the surface alone being
modern.

 And in this connection it would be well to give serious consideration the suggestion of J. C.

While there might be lack of information on the proper steps to take at this time it would that the Legislature. could with propriey and wisdom include shell fish in the scope of the work of the Alaska Territorial Fish Comma- sion.
