WOADS-
Help
Among the elements and forces of
nature there are several enemies of
good roads, but the greatest of them is
water. I t washes away the material
of the road. It soaks into the road and
softens it so that the wagon wheels cut
into the surface making ruts and holes.
It permeates and softens the foundation
so that the surface of the road sinks or
breaks up. In the winter the water
that is in the road freezes, expands,
and loosens and disintegrates the road
material.
The most important thing in the
building of rose la is to lessen or prevent
the ravages ot water; yet no feature of
the work is so neglected as this. Many
local road supervisors seem to give no
consideration to the question of drain
age, and the result is a regular mud
blockage during several weeks or
months of the year.
The following are a few simple rules
the observance of which would go far
toward bettering the roads of this coun
try:
First. The road should be so located
and constructed as to avoid steep
grades down which the water rushes
during heavy rains tearing up and
washing away the road material.
Second. The foundation of the road
should tie thoroughly drained by open
side ditches which w ill carry off the
water and where necessary tile drains
should be laid in the foundation itself.
Third.
The surface of the road
should be hard and smooth and have
suflicieot slope toward the sides to shed
the surface water.
Fourth. Ruts and holes on the sur
face of the finished road should be filled
as fast as made so that no water can lie
on the surface to be worked up into
mud.
These rules are simple and easy to
follow, and any one who gives any seri
ous thought to the matter can see the
wisdom of following them. Stilt they
are almost universady ignored as the
condition of our roads abundantly
proves.
What this country needs is a radical
change, a new era in road building.
The people have been moving in ruts
in more senses than one, and if each
local community is left to work out the
road problem alone, they w ill continue
to move in the same ruts, and every
year millions of dollars will be thrown
into the mud, to say nothing of the
losses resulting from the use of bad
roads. lectures on road improvement
seem to do very little good. Books and
bulletins on road building appear to
have very little effect.
What the local communities need is
practical object lessons and actual as
sistance, and these ran come only from
the state governments and the federal
government. I t is for this reason that
road reformers everywhere are turning
toward state and national aid as the
only soluton of the road problem.
The bad roads of the United States
are a blight, a curse, a disgrace and all
patriotic, progressive citizens should
make a grand united effort to wipe
them out and put our nation on a level
with the advanced nations of Kurope
in the matter of roads.
