Shifting Sands Are Tied Down By
New Desert Highways In California

SACK AM KXTO. Cal.. fAF'i The
shifting srtn.ls of the desert, which
battled the motorist' transconti-;
nental Invasion of California, have
.W-en conquered.
flr-.ad highways, free of the
Kit ud y clouds hie honce swirled
and drifted over th'- roads or
whipptt1 l.eb-w to untiermine them,
now i nter the state through desert
regions over four routes.
Knirineer have olveti the prob
lem of "tinir down the desert."
Study rev ea 1 e d t h at o nj y dimes
below 3 feet in height moved with
rapidity, and new rads have been
built up to the level of the 30-foot
moving drifts. '
To keep the sjinl fills from whij- ;
pin out from under the new roads,
slopes are well oiled. To prevent '
washing out under conditions of
concentrated rainfall:! channels '
were dur to carry of fihe flood and '
bridges built to span the breaches.;
There is little rainfall in the;
desert for months, and a merciless'
sun beats down on the vast, arid
stretches .Rut what little rain there
Is comes all at once and stors are
often of such exceptional intensity
that the whole country flows with
water.
Pushing an improved hhihway
through the shifting sand hills was
a project conceived by K. Q. Sulli
van, district engineer of the divi
sion of highways, and the district
he administers contains the princi
pal desert roads of the state.
The old plank road which once
pushed for six miles over undula
ting hills still stands, a reminder
of the days when the continuous
services of a crew of men and 1
hea dof mules were needed to keep
it open. Kven then, during heavy
wind storms, it was closed at niuht
and occasionally in the day lime.
Highway construction in desert
regions is costly, although depen
dent on the locality and character
of the country. Sections paved in
the Imperial valley cost approxi
mately 1 4 9.000 a mile to grade, con
struct culverty, and surface with a
2u-foot pavement.

Insurance
The money you pay for auto insurance pro
tects your car from fire and theft, protects
you from financial loss when your car is
damaged in collision, protects you from ruin
ing judgments in case of damage to other
people's property and the most important of
all it protects you from extended law suits
if you should happen to injure some one.
This agency has a thorough understanding
of the proper auto insurance that you may
need. Come in let's talk it over today
tomorrow may be too late we will show you
the extravagance of going without adequate
protection.
And the money question is taken care of
by our liberal instalment plan. You can pay
while you ride.
