Arguments in Favor of the

struct! n Process
The Water administration Is doing

struction of better jftrects. A short
ifpio ngo Mayor Writfru nnd a cfjnimit
te of aldermen nn) County Judge
Bfiott went to Portlnnlftm inspect" some
afreets' thnt arc being constructed on
a largo scnlo by what is known as the
bUhulitlc "process,, crushed rook and a
coating of bituminous material, Hint Is
tat more durable than asphalt, it is
claimed. 1 .
,W. L Arc,hembqnun practical strcot
pavement 'man, representing tho War
ren Construction Company, has been
Id tho city the past week interviewing
a' number of business men nnd city of
ficials in the interest of tho pnvement.
He made n very favorable impression
for his kind of street, nnd hopes to re
turn soon to our city nnd closo a con
tract. This pavement is now in use in
wore thnn SO cities, and scorns to stand
tho tos.t of heavy trafllc. and tho erosion
of time. It seems peculiarly adapted to
our kind of streets, and would utilize
all tho foundation work that has been
done. Tn nn oxtonde.l nrgumont boforo
tfio committco the following stntomontt
yhro brought out In rofcroneo to tho
foundnyan required for bituminous or
asphalt pavement:
I Tho eompetitiors of tho 'Wtullth
lCj" or "Wnrron Bituminous MiiQudnm
JJavcnicut," anddhvor to mako a point
agnins it by stating it Is not laid on
n concrete foundation. It is not laid
on o conorcto foundation. It is not
laid on hydraulic concrote, but is laid
m a base of crushed stono and bltunii
ndus cement, which is in actual use
ami sjlll in good Condition under pave
ments laid in tho city of Washington
30 years ago. Tho fact is that hydraul
ic concrote, in point of durability, is
an clement of weakness oMho ordlnnry'
sheet pavemont, for tho reason that it
docs no unite to tho surface and pro
vides a lino of separation between the
foundation nnd surface, tho tendency
of which is to cause the blanket to
fibrson, city cngiDeecofNorrIstown,
Pa,. ym .55,000 square yards of
Ifltuntlilc pUvcmcnt Is In use, under
date of February l, 1903, as follews:
"Last nionth A heavy load passed
over your pavomont on Airy street-a
flOfoot girder weighing 17 tons, wagon
84 tons, or a-total of lOyt tons; tires
3 inched wide, or nbonl 3250 pounds per
square inch, which speaks very wotyfor
vour pavemont.' 2 consldor no Bitu-
litliic pavomont to bo the best pave
ment laid today, and sincoroly wish
tho urometers overy buccoss. Tills
trusk with girder, drawn by 10 horse,
was photographed."
Another point. In tho shoot pave
ment laid on concreto foundations the
blanket surfaeo has so llttlo inherent
stability or strength that tho blanket,
whatever tho thicknoss may be,- does
not provido conditions insuring tno
full wear of tho thicknoss of tho pavo
mont. That is when the surface wears
down to say one inch in thickness, tho
material not being united to tho foun
dation, hnsa't sullleierjt strength to
withstand tho pressure yf trafllc, arid
breaks into holes. With an original
thickness of one and qno-hnlf inches,
therefore, tho life Of tBc pavomont it
represented by wonr of only about one
half inch. '
With a bituminous base, however, tho
surface nnd basq being untied, nnd the
surfaeo pressed into tho bnsc, tho en-
tiro thickness of surface will wear
evenly, and after worn to tho baso it
will still provido further wearing qual
ities. This is not a theory, but is well
borno out by tho oxpcrlpnco in Wash
ington with bituminous bnso 25 to 30
years old, nnd with concreto for a
shorter time, and in Buffalo where, on
Franklin street, tho bituminous bnsc
has been in use for 25 yours, nnd is still
in "bettor condition than sheet pave
ment on concrete baso laid loss than
10 yearn ago.
HOW IT STICKS.
Salem Has
Found It
Off.
Hard
to Shako
41 slip or "roll" 'on tho foundation
under tho rolling effect of trnlllo.
It Is a wry common thing to hco
hoot pavements which have rolled into
waves or billows, anil on examination,
to find that tho blanket has slipped on
.ho concrote to such an extent that the
upper surfaeo of tho concreto and the
lower surfaeo of tho sheot hnvo become
polished as smooth as glass. To ovor
como this a "binder" course of
fine stono nnd oil lull laijl between the
concreto baso and tho blanket surface
liss bceu used during the past few
years. Tho binder course only partial
ly overcomes the slipping nnd opous
new element of weaknoss. Tho Wild
er is more watertight than a basket
nnd provides a course between tho
foundation and the blanket surface
which oasily hqlds nny molsturo which
works into tho pavement from above or
below, nnd permits tho moisture- to bo
taken up by the smut-porous surface,
causing the same to rot.
Tho bituminous foundation of the
"Hltullthle" pavement provides a
rough surface of the twmo character as '
the "llitullthie" wearing wirfase, so

Some men are old at half
