HUCKLEBERRY FINN The DEBUNKER 6—THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE________________________ June 11, 1951 By John Harley Furbay, Ph.D. _,The popular belief that eggs which are washed will spoil sooner than those which are not washed . has no basis whatever in fact.

'<>»• We Can Hardly expect the reader to know the answer to this question, when experts themselves admit they don’t know. As the Bu reau of Public Roads says: “What load repeated in what frequency on a slab of a given dimension will rup ture the slab has not been deter mined.” , Translated Into Easier Terms this means there’s no way of telling how much of a traffic load a highway can bear if the road is built right. r mediterra nean WATERS- (FHTNC)— Geno ese orphan with loaded Iray strad- dies water-tight compartment coaming of USS Pittsburgh. Occasion was good will mission sponsored by that Ship which is operating with the Sixth Fleet. (Official U. S. Navy Photograph 209001) On Airports, runways built with a 6’1 inch concrete surface success fully withstand week after week, year after year, the pounding of planes of more than 100.000 pounds landing every hour. Yet highways built with far thicker surfaces are ruled incapable of handling such loads in most of the 43 States. We Do Know that axle loads of more than 100,000 pounds have trav eled every day on well-made, well- drained roads without causing any signs of disintegration. Yet, Strangely enough, despite the fact that no one knows how much weight a road can carry without bieaking down, various states place arbitrary limitations on allowable gross weights for vehicles. For Instance, Kentucky says the limit should be 42,000 pounds, while Michigan declares it might well be 120.000 pounds. And the roads in all our states are very similar! rCOOD HEALTH----- - HOw DOES GOOD Mr. and Mrs. George E.
