At the Baptist Church Feb. 21st CLUB ESSENTIALSJF, ROADS Stato Highway Commissioner of Cal ifornia Gives Practical Direr, tions a to Requisites. According to Austin H. Fletcher, state highway engineer of Califor nia, the essentials of a modern rural highway are as fo'ljws: A readjustment of the road loca-l tions or rights of way so as to se cure proper alignment and to obviate the necessity for traveling around so many section corners. ' The elimination of all crossings of highways at grade with steam and electric railroads. Rights of way of uniform width,! preferably not less than 60 feet, I Maximum gradients in the moun tainous country a: 7 per cent and minimum radii on (he center lines of such roads of 50 feet, with all curves opened out as much, as possible by flattening slopes arid removing brush and such trees as interfere with the j vie A'. A clear si.;!it of at least 150 feet f houdd be secured wherever it is practicable. The construction of permanent culverts, gutters thd ditches wher ever they are needed to prevent wa ter from standing on the roadsides and on grades to prevent "gullying due to the water being carried too far in the gutters and thus accumu lating In volu.ne. The construction of bridges of a permanent character, preferably of reinforced concrete, such bridges to be at least 24 feet wide in the clear and so designed that they will carry 16-ton traction engines with a reas onable factor of safety. A minimum wid.h of roadway of 16 feet, which mav be traveled safe ly, such width to rpply only to those places in the mountains where there is so . much rock as to make a greater width prohibitive on account of its cost. An average width throughout the remainder of the state of 2 4' feet on embankments, or 22 feet in through cuts and 22 feet where the rond is part cut and part fill. A crown or cross chamber vary ing from one inch to the foot where no surfacing is applied fo lens than one-eighth of an inch where bitumi nous surfaces ?.re used, in all cases the crown to be t!;e least needed to cause the water to run quickly from the road into the gutters. Such type of surfacing as the needs of the locality varying from the graded"" road to the highest type of asphalt paving and varying in width from 15 to 24 feet. The erection of guard rails at dan gerous points on grades and on high embankments. In places guard banks of earth are preferable to the wooden fences because of their great er permanency. The proper trimming of slopes along the roadsides, both old and new, so as to prevent the unsightly gashes now so noticeable along the roads. Also the planting of suitable trees, indigenous to the locality, and properly caring for them. The placing of proper permanent monuments at the time of construc tion along the ronds to mark accur ately the limits of the right of way. Such monuments will be of inestima ble value to surveyors. Also the erection and maintenance of guide! boards marked to show places and distances accurately. 1 A proper system of maintenance for the upkeep of the roads after they are built, coupled with- ade quate appropriations of money. Such appropriations and such a system should be provided for even before a road is completed, since even if the wearing surface requires no ependi ture for some time a rather un usual condition the gutters, cul verts and slopes always v;H i:-.ed intention.
