Savings Effected Through Cash Pur
chases and County Aid.
1 California's state highway commls
: slon has solved the problem of pro
i riding a $00,000,000 system with the
i $18,000,000 it has, In the opinion of
! Charles D. Blauey. a member of tho
I board.
This has been accomplished for the
most part. Blimey soys, by paying cosh
for materials at a saving of from 25
to 45 per cent. Crushed rock has been
bought for 45 ceuts a ton as against
$1.10 on time, and cemeut for from
$1.18 to $1.30 a barrel as against from
$l.JO to $2.4(.
In this way. Blauey goes ou to ex
plain, lower bids are obtained from
contractors, for they do not have) to tie
up from $30,000 to $50,000 In capital or
go into deht for that Mtnouut.
Two million dollars is the estimated
soring through this method.
Another $7,000,000 sarins Is estlmat
ed In baring towns and cities con
struct their own tortious of the high
ways Hnd by getting counties to give
the rights of way and build the
bridges.
A million more has been economized
by Inducing the railroads to haul the
materials and machinery at half rates.
Tim railroads have been glad to make
this concession, Blaney says, because
they realize that good roads mean in
creased passenger and freight revenues
for them.
The 1.400 miles of trunk highway of
the contemplated 2.700 miles are to be
constructed with a concrete base, with
asphalt or asphaltlc concrete surface
The cost will be about $S00 a mile.
The 1,300 miles of laterals are to be
f,,.wti-in-tnl of local materials or Blm

i Oregon and Washington have so made
their highway iiluns us to form a con

which will give a roud from Canada
to Mexico with the same maximum
grade.
The California system will be com
pleted by the time the world's fair
opens. The fee9 from automobile li
censes will keep it In repair.
OHIO AS A ROADMAKER.
The State Will Expend $7,000,000 In
Good Roads.
Ohio will expend $7,000,000 for good
roads this year. This will exceed all
the money It has put In good roads
since the enactment of the stuta aid
law for that purpose eight or more
years ago. Beginning this year, Ohio
will step to the front In state roud con
struction. The Hite law making a half
mill levy on the grand duplicate of the
state Is largely responsible for this.
Highway Commissioner Marker estb
mates that between $4,000,000 nnd $5.
000,000 will be raised by this and oth
er laws of the state. Added to this
will be something like $3,000,000
which will be raised by the counties,
all of which will he for good roads.
Eighty-five counties have petitioned
the state highway department for a
total of more than 7.000 Improved
highways. Sixty-one counties have
asked for all they can get under the
road building act Commissioner Mark
er says that the department will be
knt husv for several years building
the improved highways petitioned for. .
BEST TIME FOR
ROAD DRAGGING
Is Directly Alter a Rain, Says
an Expert.
: KEEPING A ROAD SMOOTH,
The Bttt Way to Drag Is to Begin at
the Side Ditch and Go Up One Side
of the Highway and Then Down the
Other In Slanting Direction.
The iK-st results from road dragging
coino when the roads are dragged ill
rectly after n rain, says an expert In
the American Agriculturist. The sur
face of the road Is leveled, thu holes
and ruts are tilled up uud the earth Is
puddled. A crust forms when the top
dries out. uuiklng the road much more
lasting than It would bo If dragged at
any other time.
To keep a road smooth and crowned
the best method Is to drag with tin
ordinary wood road drag, mr.de easily
with two hahes of a log which lias
lcen split. This log should be aUnit
six or eight inches In thickness and
six to eight feet long. The l.alves are
set three feet apart with tho Mtnooth
surfaces forward and upright. They
are fastened together with braces set
In holes bored through the log.
If they are not heavy enough a
board can be placed oh top, uud the
driver stands upon 1L This will weight
It dowu sufficiently. In some cases It
has been found desirable to attach a
piece of metal along the lower edge of
the forward piece of the drag. This
cuts tho surface of the ground belter
and dos more efficient work.
The road drag should move forward
so that It slants across the road In
such u way that u small amount of
earth will slide past the smooth face
of the log toward the middle of the
road, thus forming the crown. In this
way the edge of the drag smooths out
the ruts and fills up the holes.
The best way to drag Is to beglu at
the side ditch and go up oue side of
the road and then down ou the other.
DHAGOIMJ AT H1DK l)II U OF HO AD
The next trip the drag should he start
ed a little nearer the middle, and the
Just trip over the road the drag should
work close to the middle Itself. Small
ridges of earth will be thrown iu the
horse track and smeared bv the round
side of the log smoothly over the road.
The smearing of the earth by the drag
Is called puddling, and it tends to
make the surface smooth and hard
and turn off the water, especially after
the sun comes out aud dries it thor

A statement given out today by
State KiiKliiei r Lewis, to whom Ihe
citizen of New I'llie Creek IrOC I p
pcalcil Indicates that the "f'liusta
Valley project In Callfori.il. wh!ch
is planning to divert wi.t"r from
Klamath Itlv.r in Oregon. mv l"d
It Impnitslh'" to secure ft per-iil". e.nttl
Cnlllornla becomes more Lbeiiil to
wards Oregon."
"Approprlators In California i;l.iliil
all the waters of I'lne Creel-, and
are depriving the Incorporated town
of New I'lue Creek, Oregon, of a
municipal water supply," said Mr.
Lewis. "This town 1h located nar
the interstate boundary line south of
Lakeview, and has a complete system
of water mains Installed, securing
Its water supply from across the
state line. One third of the water
running Into the stream originates
In Oregon above the town's Intake,
and the entire stream Hows Into
Oregon below this Intake.
"I have repeatedly called attention
to an unfair law adopted by Califor
nia. March n. 1911. making it unlaw
ful to conduct water from that dute
IntS' any other stale for use therein.
I have pointed out tho serious situa
tion of settlers In Lksrc'.'.s valley on
Lost river, whose water supply Is
now being adjudicated by the state
water board, but the waters of which
stream are entirely controlled by the
Cnlted Stales through tho slriic
Hot) of the Clear Lake reservoir. Just
over the line in California. The re
gulating works are beyond tho juris
diction ol the Oregon olh-lalH In
case of shortage, and the adjudica
tion proceedings may be of no valui
In case of arbitrary action T the
government olilclals.
To retaliate, Oregon has enacted
a law authorizing the state engineer
to Tl ny applications for the inversion
or water in Oregon for use In other
states, if under the laws of such
state water cannot lawfully he divert
ed for use In Oregon. The Shasta
valley project In California, which I
planning to divert water from Klam
ath river In Oregon, may find It Im
possible to secure a permit until Cal
Iforn'a becomes mi re liberal toward
Oregon."
To overcome these Interstate dif
ficulties Mr. Lewis ha sutrgi'sted the
enactment of a national water law
by the American Society of Civil K.n
glneirs. I ntll such a law Is et acted, tburM
Is no remedy except through the slow
expensive and antlouatcd method of
'i.fiti.rtifnen t hv lnlunrtlon.' " ald
