The growing demand for good roads in the South has provoked considerable d'scusslon as to the cheapest and most durable types of pavement. Statistics show that for hard surfaced roaus the nsphnltlc types are in great est general use. The popularity ot these types, especially those of tha sheet asphalt, the nsphaltic concreta and asphaltic macadam, is due to their long wealing qualities, resiliency against traffic impact, dustlessness, noisclessness^ cleanliness and low cost of upkeep. I5ric*Ic and concrete roads have also developed its have tha wooden block and granite block types. The most recent available figures give 42.11 per cent of the surfaced reads in the United Smtes as being of gravel, 25.22 per cent as macadam, 17.1G per cent sand-clay, 10.PS per rent asphalt and other bituminous materia^, 3.91 jPr cent concrete and 0.G2 per cent brick. The figures for tiie asphaltic ami brick types,?a total of 1H.S3 per cert show the extent to which city t.. pes of pavement have been adopted In the rural d'strlets. The types most favored in the ri .les not only for paved streets hut for Improved roads, included nut only tha asphnKic types but those of brick ami ma adnm. 11 rick is highly desirable but more costly than some typos. Macadam is a satisfactory type when combined with an asphalt binder which makes the road dust less and prevents ravelling. It costs hut little more than the i>M type of macadam since the cost of sprinkiit : with water is eliminated. s v?.oi.ntonfr Pimcndc ivj rmf gMVnt I.ut it forms an excellent foundation fur the resilient surfaces.
