TOOLS NEEDED IN
ROAD BUILDING
Cheap and Practical Machinery
Within Reach of All.
A GOVERNMENT REPORT.
Portable 8tono Cruthart Ara Invalu
able In Building Good Macadam
Roada Future Maintenance of High
ways Must Bo Mappod Out Boforo
Anything Elso la Don.
Iload building 1b now occupying tho
attention ot the people to a grcnter
degrco than ever before. Building by
tho old fushloned way is expensive.
Tools that rcduco tho cost are within
the reach of every county, and on this
subject a government report says:
"In addition to the Bbovels, picks
and other ordinary implements a con
siderable outlay for machinery Is nec
essary. In these days of high paid la
bor and short working hours one rare
ly hears In this country of macadam
atone being broken by baud.
Thero are many kinds of stone
crushers on tho murket. Except for
city uso and In cases where a largo
amount of macadam work Is done
every year within a comparatively
Hinull area, largo stationary plantB are
undesirable There are several klnda
of portable plantB which may bo
bought at prices ranging from $1,000
to $2,000 which are admirably adapt
ed for country use. These plants In
cludo tho stono crusher, cnglno nnd
boiler, portable bins, revolving screen
and an elevator to lift the atone after
It Is broken and to discharge it Into
the screen.
"The outfits are mounted on wheels
nnd mny be moved from place to place
at a comparatively smull cost. Dnder
ordlunry conditions from $f0 to $100
will pay the expense of shifting such
a plant from Its old location to a new
one several miles distant.
"Stone crushers nre variable In their
output They all need much repair
work from time to time on account of
tho severe usage to which they nre
subjected. With an outfit Buch as has
been mentioned from eighty to n hun
dred tons (sixty to eighty cubic yardsi
of broken stone per day may bo ex
pected If the plant Is kept In good
condition. Such nn output is usually
satisfactory, since n single steam road
roller will not often roll more than
this amount In a day. The crusher
will take Btones which measure up to
approximately 7 by 14 inches In cross
section; larger stones require mauling
before they can be placed in the re
ceiving orluce.
"In some places it may be found
more economical to have the stone
shipped In from some permanent crush
ing plant than to purchase a crushing
outfit, nnd It Is well to consider this
feature carefully. It should also be
stated that, whllo the first cost of the
road Is Important, the costs of future
maintenance must also be taken into
account. It is sometimes economical,
(vcu nt n greater initial cost, to im
port Btone from a distance if thereby
a more durable road may be had than
is possible by the use of local atone.
"The crusher should be set up as
nearly as practicable In tho center of
the section to be built; but, since much
water Is needed for tho boiler, for the
roller and for the watering cart, the
site Is often governed by tho location
of the water supply.
"If possible the crusher should be
set low enough bo that n platform
mny bo built at the level of the open
ing which receives the stone. This
platform should be BUlllclently strong
to bear the weight of the carts loaded
with Btone for the crusher. With this
arrangement the Inrge stones may be
dumped upon the platform and fed
Into the crusher without further lift
ing. "The workmen who set up the plant
should have had experience in thts
work. Much depends on the proper
nllgnment of the several parts, and
mnny petty annoyances In operation
will be uvolded if the work Is done
properly in the tlrst instance.
"The steam roud roller Is now used
to so great an extent that a discussion
of its advantages over the horse roller
Is unnecessary. Macadam roads mny,
of course, be built with rollers drawn
by horses. They may also be built
without any rolling except by tho
wheels of moving vehicles. But experi
ence has demonstrated that quicker
and better work enn bo done with tho
Bteum roller nnd usunlly at n less cost
A bo cnllcd ten ton roller is suUicient
ly heavy for country roads, ost of
tho culverts and many of the bridges
are too weak to sustain with safety the
heavier rollers. Thero are Beveral ex
cellent makes of such rollers, which
mny bo had nt prices ranging from $2,
BOO to $3,500.
"Since water Is nlwnyB needed In
rolling the maendam a watering enrt
or Bprlnklor should he provided. The
rond ofllchil ennnot often afford to wait
for rain. Most of theso cnr(s arc pro
vided with extremely broad tires, so
that tho cart assists In consolidating
tho stono instead of rutting It Many
communities nre provided with one or
moro wnterlng enrts, bo that It Is often
unnecessary to purchase a new one for
rond building.
"In macadam work, as In all other
construction work, there should bo a
competent foreman or aupeilntendent
In charge."
CARE OF ANTIQUE SILVER.
How to Handlo and PolUh Without
Making It Bright.
Do not give your silver n bright pol
ish, for the vogue now is to hnve an
tique Bilver for the toilet table as well
as for the dining tnblo.
You will have to do tho polishing
cleverly If you do uot want It to as
sume the brightness of newly manu
factured Bilver, so you must know
how to remove the discoloration with
out too much brilliancy appearing.
Do you know thut a bath In soapy
water that Is boiling hot is quite ns
effective as polish if a little ammonia
Is added to tho water?
After washing It Bhould be rinsed in
clear hot water, nnd ylu will find that
all spots will have vanished. Too high
a polish will not appear If wiped with
conrso dry. towelB as each piece
emerges from the both.
You should muke It a point never to
leave a lot of silver to dry by drain
ing, for some of the pleceB will partly
dry and the water collect on other
sections, thus losing the clenn look that
is supposed to be supplied by the
washing and quick drying necessary.
If sliver which is in constant use is
washed in this way It will not need
polishing more thnn onco n month at
the most, nnd then the polishing should
bo done discreetly, so that tho new np
penranco Is not given to it
In homes where gas is used as an
lllumlnant the silver discolors soon,
though if mantles are used on the Jets
it reduces this to some extent.
