UnSightly black lines, sometimes

No particular advantage over other

For several weeks a section of road

BUILD FEDERAL-AJD BRIDGES
Nearly Fifty Miles Constructed in IS
States During Period of 4 Years
and Months.

More than $S,525,0OO has been ex-
pended by the federal government,
through the bureau of public roads
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, toward the building of bridges
on federal-aid roads and highways in
30 states during the 4 years and 4
months ending November last. That
period dates back to the inception Of
the federal-aid road work as at pres.
ent supervised.
Placed end to end, these bridges,
each of which has been constructed In
connection with the road work, would
total Ala miles. Their estimated to-
tai cost is placed by the department at
SIC, 235, 200.f3. 1t will thus be seen
that approximately AZ per cent of the
total was contributed by the federal
government, The location of some of
the chief projects and their total cost
was as follows; Georgia, $2.950, 474.59
New Jersey, $5,10S, 400. rs; North Da.

GRAVEL FOR ROAD BUILDING
Simple, Portable Apparatus Devised
to Test lts. Suitability
for Highways.

To aid the bureau of public roads
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, In giving particular attention to
the use Of local material for road
construction wherever possible. sam
pie portable apparatus has been de-
vised for testing gravel to determine
its suitability for concrete The de-
vice consists of two steel balls ar
ranged so that piece of gravel can
be placed on top of one of the balls
and the other ball allowed to fall
from different heights and strike the
gravel. The height of fall required to
break the gravel is an indication of
Its suitability to withstand the blows
of traffic.
Heretofore there has been no salts
factory test of gravel as there has
been for stone. with the result that
In some instances more costly mate
rial has been used when a suitable
gravel was available close at hand.
Along this line the bureau is conduct
Ing wear tests on concrete made OF
many different materials to determine
just how far 1t is safe to go when the
quality Of material is doubtful.

width of automobiles. At an average
speed Of 30 miles an hour 1t Is unreal
sonable to expect the driver of an
automobile to drive with the wheels
closer than " feet to the edge of the
pavement, says the bureau. For trucks
at an average speed Of 10 miles an
hour, this distance should not be less
than ~ feet on account of the great
width Of the rear wheel. Three feet
seems to be a minimum safe clearance
between bodies. Inasmuch as a GER
tain amount Of truck traffic is to be
expected on all main country roads,
the minimum width of surface should
be Is feet to provide these clearances
when an automobile meets truck
Where the frequency with which
trucks pass each other becomes a big
factor, as In the neighbOrhood of large
cities, the minimum width of pavement
should be 20 feet to provide a clear
ance of 3A feet and a safe distance of
wheels from edge of pavement.
