A serious drawback to the rapid sd-
vancemeu: of road improvement in our
farming districts is the application of
unnecessarily expensive methods, the
result of copying without taking into
consideration the relation of methods to
requirements. writes G. A. Roullier in
The Independent. Without such consid-
oration successful economy is uncertain.
Success may be attained, but at 1111 ex-
cess of cost that is never known because
the community is seldom in position
to realize how equally satisfactory a
condition could have been obtained at a
much smaller outlay. A tendency to err
reasonably on the anti! side is to be com-
mended, but to cverstep that bound will
be disastrous fr'om a financial stand-
point aud will probably be fatal to fur-
ther road improvement in that locality.
The thickness of a 1011de being ren-
eonably ample to bear the traffic. the
condition of the road surface becomes
independent of that thickness. An er-

Whether a road should be being:
plain macadum or built with an art
cinl foundation is not to be decided u -
on haphazard.
Where the soil is clayey. or where
permanent subsoildrainago, if necessary,
cannot be permanently assured, n11 urti-
fioiai foundation of some kind is impor-'
tant. If this foundation is adequate and
well built, it will in itself support the
track, and consequently needs a macad-
am top dressing, not to increase the
strength, but only to furnish a smooth
traveling surface. '
Four inches of well -compaeted muc-
adum stone have been found to give satis-
factory rosults on heavily traveled roads,
allowing ample room for wear before
rats formed and called for redressing.
‘Any addition to that thickness, except
where uniform wear was to be expect-
Hd, would have added to the expense
without adding to the period of fairness
of the road. Batting Would have accur-
red as soon in the heavier dusting as in
the lighter one; the excess would only
have permitted rats to become deeper,
and consequently more offensive, before
cutting through to the foundation.
The foundation itself need be only
thick enough to carry the trulilo. Excess
there is wasteful, although the material.
as a rule, is of a coarse and inexpensive
character; .A foundation being always
bulky, however light we may make it,
the cost of transportation becomes a
serious item, especially if the material
must be brought from a distance. U11-
der such conditions it is better to reduce
the thickness to a safe minimum and
to exact better workmanship than is
usually bestowed 011 the average founda-
:ion.
Rondheds of plain nmcadam only four
inches thick and without artificial foun-
dation, bu: built on good, dry subsoil,
have given excellent results even under
heavy trufllc accidentally divm'ted over
them for quite awhile. From this it
will be soon that extremely heavy con-
situation is not always a necessity, and,
although such thin roadbeds are not to,
be recommended for 11min traffic roads,
yet the experience above referred to i11-
dlcatcs that. with but slight increase in
thickness, roudbeds of that type will an-
swcr every purpose in many localities.
In thoselocalitics where roadbuilding
material is not readily obtainable and
where. through the freight charges,
the most economically built roads must
of necessity be expensive it becomes im-
perative to reduce the bulk to a mini-
mum.
It should be carefully determined
whether 11 foundation is absolutely noc-
essury or not. If it is. it should be made
as light as possible, but of the very best
quality as to material and workmanship.
It. on the other hand, it can be dis-
pensed with, it will be necessary to deter-

but less bulky macadem will be neces~
