HEAT INFLUENCES CONCRETE
Discovery Made That Edges Curl Up
and Down in Response to Tenn
perature Changes.

That the edges Of concrete roads
curl up and down in response to
changes in temperature is the dscov-
cry recently made by the bureau of
public roads of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture in the course
of experiments at the departments
experimental farm at Arlington, Va.
Curling is caused by the unequal ex-
pansion and contraction Of the upper
and lower sides Of the concrete slab
under the influence of heat. 1t has
been observed during the middle of
the day when the surface of the road
becomes hot II expands more than the
cooler underside and causes the sides
to move downward At night when
the surface is cool the contraction
causes the edges to rise slightly. The
extreme movement may be as much as
one-tenth of an inch.
While the warping Of the concrete
is not in itself detrimental to the road,
it may lead to failure of the surface
under the wheels of vehicles which
travel over il when parts Of 1t are
not resting on the ground.

ROADS CONSTRUCTED IN 1921
Approximately $4,000 Miles Built Dur

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture)
Road building has recovered from
the setback received during the war,
and prospects are bright for the future.
Approximately $4,000 miles of road
were constructed during the present
season by the states in conjunction
with federal aid, according to the
bureau of public roads, United States
Department of Agriculture, and prob
ably an equal amount Independent of
federal aid. More miles of improved
road were built than during any other
year.
Costs of road grading and construc-
ton with local materials Is down prac-
tically to the 1914 level. Some reduc-
tions, also, have been made in freight
rates on road materials. The i'm
portance of this item Is shown by the
fact that in some cases 1t has been es-
timated that increased freight rates
have added 10 per cent to the cost of
road. Prices of manufactured road
materials tend downward the present
level is materially lower than that of
year ago.
With the new appropriation by con-
gress of $75,000,000, added impetus will
be given to new road construction.

Convenience Available in Various
Sizes; Can Be UnfoIded

Arrangement of Container Saves In.

No greater gardening convenience
has been devised In many years than
the paper flower pots now available
In various sizes which can be unfolded
away from the roots of the plant when
1t comes time to transplant. BY the
use Of these paper pots which are
fairly durable, plenty lasting enough
to raise seedlings to sufficient size, great
advantages can be secured in growing
such vegetables as peppers, egg plants
and cucumbers> and melons for an early
start. One or two seeds to a pot of
the two-inch size may be planted and
the stronger of the two seedlings re-
tanned to grow along.
For plants which cannot be trans
planted readily If the roots are dis
turbed In the operation these paper
pots are ideal. If cucumbers can be
given two or three weeks start by this
method, they are in much better shape

ART OF GROWING RADISHES
One Of the Earliest Products Of the
Home Garden Is One Of Easiest 3"
to Grow.

The radish patch usually is the first
to be planted by the majority of home
gardeners. The product in most in
stances Is the first to grace the fam
lily table. The United States Depart
ment of Agriculture tells how:
For the home garden, radish seed
should be sown I'm the open ground as
soon as the soil Is moderately warm.
Plant In drills IL to IS inches apart.
and as soon as the plants are up thin
them slightly In order to prevent
erowding. Radishes require to be
grown on a quick, rich soil, and some
Of the earlier sorts can be matured In
two or three weeks after planting. II
the radlshes grow slowly they will
have a pungent flavor and will not be
Ht for table use. For a constant sup
ply successive paintings should be
made every two weeks, as the roots
lose their crispness and delicate flavor
Il allowed to remain long I'm the open
ground. AS rule large percent
age of radish seed will grow, and 1t is'
sften possible by careful sowing to
avoid che necessity of thinning, the
arst radishes being pulled as soon as
hey are sufficient size for table use,
thus making room for those that will
nature later.
