INSTRUMENT TO TEST SOILS
BY Means Of Modern Apparatus IL Ia
Possible to Obtain Most Valuable
Information.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
An instrument for testing soils on
which roads are to be built has been
devised by the bureau OF public roads
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture. 1t consists of a metal
disk resting on the soil and support
ing cylinder into which shot can be
poured. The apparatus is held In
position vertically by means of a
tripod, at the top OF which is mounted
a small dial that tells to one-thous-
andth Of an inch how far the disk
sinks into the soil as shot Is poured
into the cylinder. By means of the
instrument 1t Is possible to get in
formation as to how the soil will act
In wet weather.
The kind of soil beneath a road sur.
face has u great deal to do with how
1t will stand up under modern traffic,
and engineers look upon this as an i'm
portant consideration In determining
the kind of road TO be built. This Is
confirmed by number Of instances
where two sections Of the same road
have been built In exactly the same
manner and subjected to the same
traffic but on different types of soil.
One section has lasted well while the
other has broken up in q manner that
can only be explained by lack of
supporting power of the soil beneath
the road.
The bureau has for some time been
investigating this question along vari-
