Hi SOHROF ROADS Forty-seven Kinds In a Mile Near Ithaca, N. Y. BUILT IN 100 YARD SECTIONS Work of the Department of Agricul ture and Cornell University Design ed to Give Data on Highway Con struction. Forty-seven different sorts of road to the mile seems a pretty- large order, but tbnt Is the sort of construction that the road office of the department of agriculture has been undertaking in New York state. It is a large piece of work and promises to give some of the most valuable comparative data on roadmnking that have ever been ac cumulated in the United States. The work is to be done in conjunc tion with Cornell university and will be on a stretch of well traveled high way outside of Ithaca. The materials for the construction have all been ac--cumulated, and the work has attract ed much attention. The road will be divided into sections of 100 yards each, and each of these will be built of dif ferent material and in a different man ner. The road office made plans for the construction of telford and mac adam sections, and these will be given a top dressing of almost every con ceivable sort of rond binder. The roads will be coated with asphalt, dif ferent sorts of tar, light and heavy -oils and such other binders as have been brought to the attention of the department from various sections of the world. There will be roads constructed of sing, granite and various sorts of rock, and these will be combined with dif ferent sorts of top dressings tending to form a good chemical combination for preserving the surface from wear. It is expected that the road will be finished before the . coming of cold weather, and the first report on its USINO THK ROAD HOLIER ON A MACADAM SECTION. tFrom Good Roads Magazine, New Tork.J wearing qualities will be made early next spring. From that time on there will- be periodical Inspections and re . ports, so that the department will know Just how the various sections are standing up to the work. All of the sections will be kept In as perfect repair as possible, and a record will ibe made of the cost of the work, so as to give not only the original cost ot building, but the annual cost of upkeep. The cost will be calculated for the various materials used, both with and without including the transportation charges, so that it will be for any community to tell Just what a certain sort of road ought to cost in its own vicinity. The department has so far deckled on the sort of roads to be built on About 4,200 feet of the experimental stretch, and the whole work probably will cover about a mile. One of the essential features of the periodical reports that will be made will be how the different sections withstand different sorts of traffic. It lias beeu found that some of the best ro;ids where iron tired vehicles ami borses are used ore the poorest In withstanding the scouring effect of rubber automobile tires. One great object of the various sorts of binders o be experimented with is to find something that will make a perma nently dustless highway and one that will not be disintegrated by motor traffic. The experiments of the road office with what it terms palliative" dressings bave been quite wide la the past season and tolerably satisfac tory. The stretch of road laid in the Agricultural department grounds and treated with wood pulp sulphite llq nor baa stood up quite well, but It is found that It will require about two dressings per year to keep the road in good condition. As the liquor now costs more than light oil for road dressing it seems not to be an econom ical material to use. - What the Purchase of an Auto Did. A farmer In western Kansas bought a $3,000 automobile recently. After be cot It borne be found a stretch of road mile long in his neighborhood too randy for bis machine., So be simply took bis farm hands and teams and boat a mile of macadam road through that land. - (as & r - WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY To Be Observed In Schuols of the County Tuesday, February 2 Program of Suggestive Exercises Prepared by the State Department of Education let ter from County Superintendent. For the first time, perhaps, thi State Department of Education has taken the responsibility of recom mending that all teachers m the rural schools should observe Wash ington's birthday with appropriate extrcisee. In ordr to supply the necessary program of exercises, Mr. A. J. Barwick, chief cUrk in the De partment of Education, has prepared a new pamphlet on Washington. In this pamphlet appears patriotic selections, orations on Washington, flag drills, quotations about Wash ington and Damerons national and state songs. Altogether it is one of the neatest booklets ever issued iroin the State office, and will fill a long- felt need. The County Superintend ent. in recommending that all teach era observe the day with some kind of appropriate exercises based upon the suggestions of the State super intendent, has addressed tne ronow ing letter to the teachers of the county: To the Teachers of Randolph County : Under separate cover I am send iog you Educational Bulletin XIII. For a long time we have been want ing some suitable exercises for Wash ington's Birthday. Our wants have been supplied since Mr. rsarwicK nas prepared this pamphlet of appropri ate exercises. You will find, upon examination, that it contiias sug gestive progress, and also material for the exercises. You cannot do better than look this pamphlet through at once and see for yourself just what it contains. When you have done thie, decide that you and your Bchool are going to celebrate Washington s Uirrnaay in some way. It may not be best for you to follow the exact plan sug- gtsted by the pamphlet, out you en formulate a plan of your own by re ferring to this program. &. simple afternoon exercise lasting an hour or two hours will assist greatly in giving new life to your school. It is a well known tact mai pa rents do not visit schools enough This will give you an opportunity to invite them to visit your school and inspect the work. In this way you will give inspiration to tt e cnuaren and also interest the parents. Yo are not conhued to alternoon program. Perhaps you can have an exercise at night. 1 know of one teacher who is going to have the ex erciaes at night. She expects to have a box party when the exercises are over. v ith the money proceed ing from the sale of the boxes she expects to purchasa a large bell for the school house, and some pictures for the walls. It may be that some other teacher can uft'orJ to follow this suggestion. If you are iu doubt about what you want to do and how to uo it, write me fcr suggestions, I cannot answer all your suggestions, nor can I give definite plans to every school, but I shall be glad to help you in any way I can. Let me know what you are going to do about observing the birthday of the "Founder of our Republic." Yours truly, E. J. Coltrane, County Superintendent of Schools. WORTHY OF CONFIDENCE.
