Expense of Worthless Repairs Waal fa Almost Every Instance BiUd Goaa Basil. Some months ago the people of Sac ramento county,. Cal- voted to issue bonds for road construction purposes; but, owing to a possible defect in the law, the matter it in the courts for adjudication. Not long after;" San Mateo county voted on. the same ques tion and decisively rejected it. It is said that this result indicate "that the people generally are not wiling to bond their credit for the purpose of constructing good roads." and that if improvements ,arte ;$o,'bie rnade in the highwayiMSO providing' means for it must be: found. In an exhaustive address on the sub ject, Engineer J. 11. Price," of the state highway commission, recently consid ered the matter in detail and showed what could be Accomplished if the money that is annually spent in worth less repairs should be devoted . to building permanent roads. In this re spect, California may be taken as a sample of nearly every, state, the same considerations applying to all. . "' Mr. Price found that every county spends from $30,000 to $50,000 in repairs each year; that for 11 years prior to 1895, the total wa $17,959,717.94. or a yearly average of $1,623,701; but, as there are other expenditures not in-. eluded in these figures, he considers the annual outlay to be $2,000,000. and there are no improvements in the roadt to show for it. If this outlay is continued for 40 years, the amount expended would reach $80,000,000, and this sum would pay for the construction of 1C.00C miles of good macadam, costing $5,00C. a mile. There are in the state about 44,000 miles of .roads, and to macadam ize one-quarter of them, or . , 11,000 - ., ROAD AT RIVERSIDE. CAI miles,- would satisfy the commercial needs of the state; hence; within 40 years, not only could this enormous amount of macadam be laid, , but enough money be left over to make the necessary repairs. Hard roads con structed in this manner would come slowly, but they would come in time; and it might prove that when .the people began to realize what they gained from . them, .they would find it worth while 'to issue bonds in order to hasten the improvements. -. ' The practice of erecting wooden bridges, culverts and drainways, Mr. Price finds as wasteful as present methods of road repair. On the basic of the expenditures of the last eight years, the outlay for the next 40 years would be $2,847,000, and this for . re pairs alone, and yet with this sum he says he can "build stone, concrete ox sewer-pipe drains and steel bridges where necessary on all the roads ' in each county named." , To illustrate this, "masonry can be constructed at a cost of from $6 to 18 per cubic yard; concrete for about the same. Sewer-pipe can be laid in place forfrom60 jeents to $1.75 per lineal foot, according to. the bore ol the pipe. A three-foot culvert with three foot walls will contaia .63 of a cubic yard perunning foot; a four-foot cul vert three feet high, .67 of a cubie yard; a five-foot culvert, four feet high,' 92 of a cubic yard, without, wings; a five-foot culvert, with five-foot side, wall's, 1.15 cubic yards. Then let a sulvert be 24 feet long, five feet high, with a span of five feet; it will cost, at 6 per yard, $165.60, containing 27.6 I a f rrT ' eubic yards of masonry. Ihe same span placed with lumber cannot be constructed for less than $100, and fre quently costs as much as the . stone structure. The wooden structure lasts from five to ten years,. while the con crete or masonry lasts forever." The erection of permanent struc tures will, "in the course of time, close this leak in the road funds of the state. It is a source ot expense that, in a period of 20 or 30 years, may be entire y obliterated if the proper course be pursued. This would give yon more money to put stone upon your roads. We had better start at the foundation and come up, rather than build from he top down to the foundation. And four foundations are not complete without permanent sub-stuctue8.,, L. A. W. Bulletin.
