BUILDING SWAM? ROADS.
Horatio 8. Earls Talis of Methods Thsl
have Been Tried.
To say Just bow boat to build a good
road or even a fulr road over en-amp
ground Is something that no Kane road
builder will attempt to do. The main
reason v. by Is that there are seldom
tiro swamps alike, and so what has
worked In one place would be worth
less In another place. About the only

One man had been drawing gravel
for years. Each year It sank, and the
road was no better than before. Be
drew cobblestones iu- tbe whiter time
and threw tbcm Into the ditches along
side of tbe road. Iu tbe spring they
sank. Next winter be did the same
thing. In the apring they sank some,
but not out of sight. The result was
be bad two walls on either aide of bis
road, so tfiat the muck could not ooze
to tbe side, and there has been no
sinking of bis road since. -
A proiuineut railroad engineer says
that generally It la best not to break
tbe aod acroee a swamp, but to haul
on the earth to build up your turnpike,
first making a mat of trees and placing
your earth on top of this mat The
trees should be from one and one-half
Inches to three Inches In diameter. He
aays be built a railroad grade In this
way across a swamp wbicb was bo
soft tbat be could run a pole down
thirty feet by band, and tbe grade baa
stayed up without any trouble for over
ten years.
Another man. Instead of building a
corduroy road, took the logs and drove
them down endwlee beside tbe road,
oslng logs sixteen feet long. He drove
them with a band pue driver made out
of an elm butt with three handles, so
that three men could use It These
log. kept tbe muck from ooalng to tbe
aide and proved very satisfactory.
Where you bare a soft spot In your
road It can often be Improved by put
ting a layer of swale grass or rye
atrmw or bay over It and then potting
year gravel on top of that. Tbe hay
or strew la not . water canter and will
generally bold up tb. grade until tbe
gravel ha. a chance to pack, after
which then will be no further trouble.
Sweet ef Automobiles on Roads.
At a meeting of tbe Los Angeles
board of supervisors and tba highway
commleslon G. B. Squires, who
turned recently from Europe, told of
the building and maintenance of
roads there. Contrary to general be
lief, he said, affairs nave not yet
reached the stage ot perfection abroad.
although tbey are far In advance of
the United States. Fast autos, b. said,
are bad for good roads, snd slow autos
are good for bad roada.

Roads For Automoblllsts.
It appears to have occurred to many
that separate roads for automobiles to
travel over la tbe solution of tb. great
problem caused by reckless motorists.
The question Is one which la now re
ceiving a good deal of attention, and
numerous projects for the establish
ment of motor speedways have been
projected or talked about says Good
Roada Magntlue. The emperor of Ger
many, who Is an enthusiastic automo
blust, bas taken up the question and
aa an experiment la having two roads
built through his estates. These road
ways are twenty-three miles long aad
thirty -six feet broad snd are construct
ed with cement. They are used exclu
sively by automobiles and are intended
as an experiment. The auccesa or tail
or, of thla experiment will be noted
with much interest In tbe tfnlted
States.
- Country Auto Mail Servioe.
In tbe counties of northeastern Ohio
and the level portions of Pennsylvauta
north of Pittsburg a movement Is ou
foot for tbe establishment of a rural
automobile mail service. Fojrly good
roada and tbe absence of many steep
hills make an automobile by far the
quickest method of transportation. It
Is claimed that In addition to tbe
greater rapidity of the service, the first
oost of the machine, will be mora than
offset by tbe greatly reduced number
of carriers needed. , .

This cost of hauling Is a heavy tax
