Better Roads [||Treearer . QUALITIES OF BRICK ROADS | Bureau of Public Roads Making Tests of Various Types of Pavements With Motortrucks. The bureau of public roads is mak- ing a study of the relative wearing | qualities of different types of pave- ments and tests have been about com- pleted on a short section of pavement | containing 49 different types subjected | to the wear of ‘a special truck equipped with fiye large cast-iron disklike | wheels. The relative wearing quali- tles of hard as compared with soft brick are brought out very distinctly in this test.. The resistance to wear of various:kinds of stone block .sec- tions is also shown up to good ad- Vitrified Brick Used for Paving Roads. vantage. A chance {o compare grout and asphalt fillers for both brick and stone block is furnished by this investi- gation. Likewlise the relative wear- ing qualities of concrete when mixed with various kinds of coarse aggre- gates is indicated. The investigation of subgrade ma- terials, started a few months ago with the co-operation of the district en- gineers and state engineers, Is pro- ceeding at a very satisfactory rate. A number of samples have been re- ceived from various parts of the coun- try and laboratory analyses of many of these samples are partially com- pleted. The methods being used by the division of tests will shortly be published as a paper so that any other laboratories wishing to conduct similar investigations may have some guide as to the method .of procedure being followed by the bureau of pub- lic roads. oy The samples analyzed have been taken from parts of the roads that have failed very badly as well as from adjacent parts of the same roads that | have withstood heavy traffic success- | fully. 1t is hoped that py a compari- son of the laboratory résultz on these samples with the reported behavior of the road in service differences in the subgrade materials will become ap- parent so that we will be able to say | what physical . characteristics soile ; must possess to give them high bear | ing value. ! | BENEFITS FROM ROAD DRAGS | Projections Are Scraped Off Roadway | and Low Places Filled In, Thus Turning Water, | The graded road can be kept in the best condition with the least labor by using the road drag. The road drag gerapes oft the projections and fills up the low places, thus leaving no places for water to stand, which Is what causes the road bed to soften and be cut into ruts. A persistent wve of the road drag will keep the voad bed well crowned, smooth and Nard, and this will also result in the least dust, as the dust comes large- 1y from the grinding up of the ruts and rough places left by the horses’ feet.— | ixtension Division, North Dakota Ag- | ricultural College. PROPER LOCATION FOR ROAD | Among Other Things Consider Easy | Grades, Good Drainage and Elimi- | natlon of Culverts. | | ~ Some of the things to be considered | In locating a road are easy grades, | good drainage, exposure to sunshine, | elimination of culverts and bridges by avoiding unnecessary creek crossings, directness and the number of farms to be served for a given length of road. Whenever possible to avoid it, a good location should not be rejected merely Dbecause a certain roadway has been in use for some time. If the locatiof of a used road Is bad it should be changed if possible. In relocating roads aveid railroad crossings at grade. Increase in Kansas Roads. There will be a great increase in the number of hard surfaced roads In | Kansas in the next three years. | Roads Must Be Rebuilt. The roads of a few years ago, that were thought to be sufficient to meet {he traffic requirements, today with our modern system of transportation are giving away and must be rebuilt.

Parker Moon, who, for a full half century, has devoted his life and talents to Sunday school and or- {ganization work for the Society of | ¥'riends of Quakers. . He resides at 628 Howard avenue, Carthage, Mo. “Uncle Parker,” as he is more | familiarly known, came from fine old |rugged Quaker stocly, and there is not a better known or more highly re- spected citizen in that part of the state. In referring to his remarkable restoration to health by Tanlac, he said: “About five years ago I suffered a general breakdown. My lprincipal | trouble was nervous indigestion. My appetite was very poor and my food |seldom agreed with me, and I had to live on a very restricted diet.

Finally, I got so bad off I was not able to get around with any de- gree of comfort. I was also told I had heart trouble. “I had read about Tanlac and, as it had been very highly recommended to me, I decided to try it. I got a bottle and had taken only a few doses until I could notice a marked improvement in my condition. I no- ticed especially that I was, not troubled any more with sour stomach after eating, which was a great relief. “I kept on tal'ng Tanlac until L fully regaincd my health.
