rolled too solidly. Xo matter what may
be the appearance of the earth bottom
after the excavation is completed, it is
more than likely to contain many soft
spots, which can be brought to light very
quickly by the passage of a heavy roller.
If the material is very soft and mealy,
it may be liest to begin the process of
rolling with a moderately light roller,
and sometimes the rolling will be has
tened and nude more effective by sprin
kling the earth, though this cannot be
practiced in all kinds of soils.
In rolling the earth bottom it is gen
erally best to bein nt the sides of the
excavation and work toward the center ;
that is, l-s;in by rolliug along the
outer ed4 of the excavation from end to ,
end, and ou the secoud passage of the
roiler let it move along virallel with the

heavy steam roller over the earth foun-
dation after excavation has been made ;
for the macadam roadway. It will be
found that the passage of the roller over j
what appeared to be a well graded sur
face of compact ina.erial will develop a j
series of bumps, hole and undulations, i
utterly destroying tue nmrormity or tne
grade in places, and revealing many soft i
and wek places which are wholly unfit j
to sustain a permanent stone roadway ,
and the wagons which are topaasover Jt. j
These boles and hollows should of
course be filled with good, firm material
and the rolling process continued until
the roadbed becomes uniform in grade
and thoroughly compact. In soft soils
and in phices where a steam roller may
not be easily sustained or worked to ad
vantage, it is best to begin the rolling
with a light roller and one of large di-1
ameter, but the rolling should be com'
Dieted by the application of asneavy a
machine as possible and the surface made i
as solid and unyielding ai the nature of
the material will txrmif .
Use a steam roller if iKwsible. It can j
be purchaudof aLy weight, from 5 to j
20 tons, tuongh steam rollers having a
weight of from 10 to 20 tons are most i
commonly used. For all ordinary couu-!
try roau a roller of 10 to:.s m weight is j
about right. Good Roads.
A Tnl of tivilluUion.
Not simply comfort and convenience
in the daily intercourse of social life, but
economical considerations of vast impor
tance are involved in the question of im
proved roads throughout our country.
The most cursory study of statistics
showing the distance over the average
wagon road of our country through
which a load of wheat will pay its own
transporta'ion is a convincing object les
son to any mnn concerning the wealth
producing, labor saving, food cheapening
effect of eood roads. A farm 12 miles
from a railroad station in a district with i
gooa roaus is worxn more man one equal
ly good three miles removed from the
railroad where the roads are as bad as
they are in many farming districts where
the land is rich.
Civilization has been well defined as
the "aggregate manifestation of the mas
tery which mind has attained over mat
ter among a given people at a given i
time." This definition wiil bear careful
thought, and few physical tests more im
mediately indicate tiie degree of civiliza
tion which a community has reached
than does the condition of its streets and
roads. Merrill E. Gates, President Am
herst College.
Co-operative Roadniaking.
The system iu New Zealand of con
structing roads is by what are called co
operative contracts. In these a small
party of men, generally six in number,
is allotted a certain section or length of i
road; one of them is elected a "ganger" i
them with the government. The govern
ment engineer states a price for the por
tion of the work, and as this is done by
an unprejudiced officer it is generally
accepted without a murmur by the men.
The results usually have been very satis
factory. Progress payments are made
fortnightly for the benefit of the men's
families, and the whole umouut is paid
np in cash on the wo;': being passed by
the engineer. It is tins intention cf the
government to provide email farVia of
10 or 15 acres each for thw-e work
men in village si ttleiiu ntK ho that they
may be induced to make tin :r homes in
country districts and thus in some de
gree neutralize the centralizing tendency
of modern industrial ' life. Pall Mall

by the educators of the country U ex-
tremelv important, and some of our in-
1 stitntions of learning have already made
I special arrangement for stimulating
! the study of the road question and im
i parting proper instruction on the sub
ject of road building.
! The Massachusetts Institute of Tech
i nology may be cited as an example. It
I begun this work in 1SVH), and an instruct-
orship in this department is nowr filled
i by a competent engineer, while a large
! road library has been collected, road ma
j terials have been gathered for examina
I tion and apparatus has been devised for
! tests of these materials, and during the
i last two years some special instruction
i has been given totheBtudents by expert
! in special line of road building or high-
way engineering.
I It is coming to be understood that
I there is a science of road construction,
i and it may be hoped that the day is not
distant when the truth will be recog-

All this is encouraging and significant
in one direction. In the other, however,
not much progress is to be noted. The
legislature of this state last winter passed
a law permitting the board of supervi
sors of any county, by a majority vote.

highways as it might deem best for the
porpose( 0nUid9 of incorporated cities
and Tilagegi such roads thereafter to be
rolyirlT maiutuined at the expense of
. M g v -i
the county at large.
The rural counties have not been eager
j to avail themselves of the privileges thus
conferred. In fact, we believe that none
I of them has yet adopted the county sys
tem. Nevertheless the law was a step
in the right direction, and will undoubt
edly bear fruit. Certainly the system
of road majntenance that now prevails
is antiquated, and it results are most
unsatisfactory. Most country roads are
an abomination during a large part of
the year. Good roads will cost a good
deal at the start, bnt will pay largely in

A gncssfui application has been
it ftt,Wo,. cf the newlv invented
road concrete, some time ago described
the of Germany, and its use-
! fulness in various direction seems to be
assured. Curious enongh, shavings and
planing mill chips, either of common or
fancy woods, and which may be stained
before use if desired, are mixed with
cheese or rather, casein calcined mag
nesian limestone, glycerin, silicate ef
soda and a little linseed oil, and this
combination of substances is forced by
hydraulic pressure into molds, where it
is allowed sufficient time to harden.
When dry, the composition is strong and
solid and can be sawed, planed, polished
and varnished. Among its various pro
posed uses are ornamental panels and
wall surface coverings, etc. New York
