Confronted by the task of building a
highway over a desert of constantly
shifting sands, which in a few years
might cover and render useless a road
bed of macadam or concrete, the Cali
fornia highway commission has intro
duced a type of paving whl^h is porta
ble, so that it can be easily moved to
conform to the changing topography
of the country. The Popular Mechanics
Magazine describes the paving, which
is made of plank, built In sections
twelve feet long and eight feet wide,
and hauled by wagons to the points
whei*e it is needed. This Unusual thor
oughfare extends six miles across a
portion of the desert lying between
Yuma, Arlz., and Holtville, Cal. The
plank sections are built on 4 by 6 inch
stringers. The units wfere bound to
gether by iron strips placed over rows
of s]>lkes, one on ^ther side and one
along the center of the road. Round
heated bolts running through the
planks and the stringers were used to
hold the strips down. Tlie latter, in
addition to Joining the units together,
keep the spikes from working out
Good Work In Texat.
It is conservatively estimated that

will go far beyond that during 1916,
it is estimated.
