Maine ttn tfni Expensive and Moat Substantial of Telford Hlghwaya. One of the least expensive and most substantial of tdlford roads In this country is safd to be the St. George highway. In Knox county, IL lb IS reel In width, thor oughly drained and cost only 50 centa jer foot, or .S2.640 per lineal mile. This low cost was pos.v.jblo becauso stones of suitable size ior the lower courses were beside the road, and grahite chips were bad for the mere hauling from tbe grcutheaps of quar ries close by the road. A description of this road says Its gutters carry away every drop of water. The lower course of tho bed Is of stones of varying sizes, none so big that a man coult^not alone handle each, and thoy wore so' placed as t? tend to bind themselves together, al though they were fitted together rath* er roughly. Smaller pieces were then fitted into the crevices of this lower layer. With long handled hammers men went over this and broke up any bits which were too large. On these were spread granite chlpa from the refuse heaps of the adjoining quarry^ ThlB ton dressing was com pacted with ? -roller drawn by horaea, and -an excellent road was the result Piping Gutter Abater. In many localities it is thecustom to extend to the center of the road driveways leading from adjacent landa to the road to meet Its center grade. This practice makes it necessary to I carry the gutter water undor the driveway in a pipe. Nearly always It is possible, bjc^regradlng such a drive way. to make it coincide with the gut ter grad*, so that the surface water will flow by without interruption. Thla should always be done when possible. Pipes with open ends laid Typical Cross Section of Macadam Roads. at. the gutter grader art- always unsat isfactory, since they fill up quickly with leaves and sard and with slush in winter time, and thus the surface water is forced out upon the macadam and roou gullL?a it. Waeq a pipe is required, a calyh basin should be built on tho u;Sper side of the drive way, the pipe should be laid to con j ncct with It, and carried sufficiently far unrtergronrd to dtatifaarfle properly Into the gutter below the driveway. i he Danger of Goc.ulicr . ,T;.n-,.r ttrnt cast Larrnr l.i -!.?1 that fcns wrecked one reptiMv .r.i-r r.n^thor nr.

Major Kennon Builds Famous Road with Aid of Band. *" Major L. W. V. Kennon, now com mandlng a battalion of the Tenth In fantry, U. S. A., in building the famous Benguct road through the mountains of Northern Luzon, Philippine Islands, accomplished a fear called humanly Impossible. It took music, money and a mongrel army of 4,000 men to do 4ti bqt B?ngu?t road stands to-day one of the remarkable highways of the world. Major Kennon's army of 4,000 road builders did not like to work; when they did it was with slow, slug gish movement. _ One dar Malar Kennon assembled his band, made up of men of all na tions, and ordered it to move quietly and secretly to a place where several -hundred Filipinos were engaged in drilling holes in the canyon walls, and play a favorite oriental air. In stantly the Filipinos caught the spirit of the music and began to beat thtir drills against the rock tn rhythm. The- band followed the Filipinos along the way and played wherever they worked. From laborers worth aboutlO cents a day they developed Into muslcai machines that worked to drum beats. Major Kennon Insist* that his band etwed the Phillppia* Government thousands of dollars.
