11017 TO BUILD A
SAND-CLAY ROAD
Proper Drainage Must . Be First
Consideration.
SIDE DITCHES ARE GOOD.
Before the Combination of Sand and
Clay Has Bocome Thoroughly Dry It
Should Bj Dragged Every . Morning
to Smooth Out the Ruts Cars 8hould
Bo Taken to Keop Ditohes Clean. .
When a sand-clay road is built upon
clay subgrade proper drainage Is
one of the most essential things, for
unless the subgrade of the road is dry
and firm the surfacing of sand-clay is
sure to break through, says Professor
M. G. Homes of the University, of
South Cnrolina. Ordinarily side ditches,
which must be large enough to carry
off all of the water falling on the road,
will be sufficient .. .
These side ditches should be wide
and shallow rather than narrow and
deep, as thus they will not be hard
to keep open nor dangerous to travel.
They should be from four to five feet
wide and from one to orie and a half
feet deep, sloping three to one on the
side next to the road and down to one
on the outer side, and they should have
outlets as frequently as possible to
carry the water entirely away from
the road. When the subgrade is wet
or damp most of the time or is through
swampy land tile subdratns should be
laid In order to keep the foundation of
the road dry and firm. It must be
borne in mind that greater care must
be exercised to. keep the clay subgrade
dry and in the majority of cases of a
subgrade In snndy soli.
The roadbed should be graded true
to the lines and grades established by
the engineer. All spongy material,
vegetable matter, trees, roots and
stumps should be carefully removed
from the roadbed and the space thus
filled In with sound material, and the
surface of the roadbed should be dry
and. the sand and clay should be plow
ed and harrowed with a disk barrow
to a depth of four Inches until the
clay Is completely pulverized, and the
clay subgrade should be comparatively
dry or it will not pulverize. After this
has been done the roadbed should be
leveled up, and it will then be ready
for the sand.
The 'subgrade is now covered with
six to eight Inches of clean, sharp and
sound sand. When the clay already
7

BOAS WITH DBAIKAQE BTSTXU.
contains much sand the amoint of
sand stated above should be cut down
by that much. . The sand should be
spread evenly and be of a uniform
thickness. To get the best results the
road bed should be dry when the sand
is added, and especially should It be
dry when the sand and clay are mixed
aa it is very difficult to mix the sand
evenly with the clay when the latter
is wet and sticky.
The mixing Is now carried on with
a spike or spring tooth barrow until
the sand and clay are thoroughly in'
corpora ted and the mixture is brought
to a state of fine subdivision. The
roadway Is now shaped' up with road
machine. A spilt log drag may be
used. From now until the surface
becomes thoroughly consolidated the
greatest care should be exercised to
keep the surface smooth and proper
ly crowned, and for at least a week
the surface of the roadway should be
reshaped every morning with the road
machine, for if the roadway is worn
into rats at first It is a bard matter
to ever get smooth surface.
As soon as it has dried out sufficient
ly the surface should be smoothed
with the road machine and given the
proper crown. And lust before it be
comes entirely dry it should be rolled
until it becomes hard and ceases to
show the tracks of ordinary loaded
vehicles. The roller should weigh
from six to ten tons, never more, and
may be either horse power or a steam
roller. -
The side ditches should be given
general cleaning and repaired at least
once in the early spring and once in
the early fail. All trash and other ob
structions should be thrown out
the sides opposite from the roadway,
and all scoured places and holes in
the ditches should be filled up with
firmly packed rock and clay. ,

MANY COUNTIES STRIVING
; TO ELIMINATE RUTS
By Building Conorete Macadam Roads.
, A 8uecess In Michigan. ' .
Concrete macadam roads are being
built in many parts of the country in
an. attempt to secure roadways that
will not .loosen up under automobile
travel nor rut under heavy trucking.
Wayne county, Mich,, has built these
roads for the past two seasous and
now has nearly eight miles of two
course' concrete macadam roadways.
In these roads the bottom layer is a

limestone concrete of a one, two and
half and five mix, using first class
cement, sand and crushed limestone.
The top layer is a one, two and three
mix of the same materials, except
that crushed cobbles are substituted
for limestone. The concrete Is six
and one-balf inches compacted depth
and from fifteen to nineteen feet in
width.
EVERYBODY DRAG ROADS I
Plan Provides That All Tax Payers
Must Keep Highways Clesn.
A plan is on foot in some parts of
the country to have the whole commU'
nity see to it that the roads Are kept
in good condition.
The proposed plan provides that the
road authorities shall divide the roads
into short sections, according to the
number of poll tax payers, and assign
to each man the section nearest and
most convenient to him, who would
assume the responsibility of keeping
the same in ood- condiUoa y- wi
ing bis poll tax on it, not all at once,
but at Intervals, as needed. It is esti
mated that In no case would these
sections comprise" more than a half
mile of road- -' " -v
As soon as the frost Is out In the
spring and while the road Is yet some
what soft .and, plastic . these ; men
would go on (he road each of his own
section, dragging It thoroughly, using
homemade split log drag, scraping
down the ridges, filling the ruts and
holes and crowning and miwntblugthe
surface so that it would shed water.
Not more than two hours would be
required to do this, and it would be
done at a time when tt would least
InterJere with form work. Later In
the season, whenever there was a tend
ency to develop ruts or holes, each
would again apply the same treat
ment just following a rain.
A very important point may here be
noted, viz that by this plan the ronds
In any district, no matter how large,
even In an entire county, could all be
dragged and smoothed and put in good
condition within a few hours.
' Today the need for better
wagon roada is greater than at
any previous time In history.
The belief has been proved falla
cious that as railroad mileage
Inoreated the need for good
eountry roads would diminish.
The fact has been established
that the greater the railroad
mileage the greater the move,
men of freight on the eemmon
reads that act as feeders to the
railroads. It has been shown
that over bad roads In the
United States a team en the
worst hauling season is able te
transport on an average only
about 800 er 900 pounds, while
in France every good draft horse
Is sxpected to be able to draw

UP TO THE WOMEN TOO.
Improvement of Country Roads Should

That the movement for the improve

affects the men was the assertion of
Logan Waller Page, director of the
rnlted States office of public roads. In
