Why this Bank does not
exclude Small Accounts
Every one with an income needs
the assistance of a bank in order to
administer it. ,
People who begin to bank in a
small way often develop into clients
whose transactions are large.
It is most difficult to carry for
ward one's enterprise if he handles
his funds in actual cash.
When this large, strong bank ex
tends its facilities to the small de
positor it helps build two successes
its own, and the depositor's.
Call and open an account, even if
it must have a modest beginning.

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.
