GOOD ROADS ELIMINATE ALL ROAD GRADES No Team Should Be Required to Pull to Ite Maximum Capacity-? In teresting Comparisons. (By W. Q,, The average coat of hauling a ton one mile on the ordluary country roads In 25 cents, while the average price of hauling one ton one inlle on the railroads la % cent. In other worda, the cost of hauling la 33 tlmea as much with team and wagon as with ateam. This has buen accomplished hy a number of factors. Home of theee can be and must be considered In making good roads, that Is, to have a good hurd roadbed and to eliminate grades. The railroads do not, as a rule, have a grade of mqre than three per cent, while some4 of them have adopted two per cent as the maximum grade. Two per cent would moan a rlae of two feet In a hundred feet. This would not be considered much of a grade on the ordinary road, but this la the way it worka out. A team can exert a pull on a short distance of one-half lta weight, but for ordinary work the load it can pull should not be over one-tenth the weight of the team, for Inatance a team weighing 3,000 pounds can exert a pull of 300 pounds when It la to con tinue the work for, say, ten houra. For a small stretch it would be able to exert a pull of ' 1,500 pounds. This, however, Is putting forth all the ener gy of which the horaea are capable. It has also been found that the pull required to take a ton load over ordi nary roads Is 160 pounds. Supposing, then, that th$ load Is one ton and the ; wagon weighs 1,800 pounds, this would make a total of 3,800 pounds. At the rate of 160 pounds a ton the total pull would be 264 pounds, or a little leas than the team Is capable of hauling. In fact, it could very nicely handle 500 pounds more, which would bring the pull up to 300 pounds, and make the load 2,600 pounds. Thle, however, la for the level. As a grade Is ap proached this, of course,* will be In creased. A five per cent grade would Increase the draft of the wagon and load of 3,300 pounds by 315 pounds, bringing it up to 579 pounds, which Is almost twice what the team can han dle as a regular thing. If the grade Is Increased to 20 per cent, or 20 feet In 100 feet,' the draft on this same load would come to a little over 1,500 pounds, or the maximum that this team could pull when exerting lta ut most power. Any grade beyond thle would mean that the load would have to be reduced, and In fact no team should be required to have to pull to Its maximum capacity. From this It Is evident that. Increasing the grade Increases the draft very fast and hence grades should be eliminated aa far aa It Is possible. On a macadam road a team can pull three times as much on the level aa on the good earth road, but the In creaae In draft for grade remain** the same as on the earth road, ao that a grade would be more objectionable on a macadam road than on a poor road. On the level a 8,000-pound team could easily handle four tona, while the maximum grade that It could pull* up with euch a load would be a ten per cent grade and even that la more than fhould be expected from the team. CURING THE CEMENT ROADS 8prlnkllng While Under Construction Should Bo Practically Continuous' on Hot Days. Sprinkling the wearing surface of concrete roads during the construc tion period must be practically con tinuous on hot days unless there Is some moisture retaining medium pres ent. Recent observations, according to Engineering Record, of a number of pieces of road construction, on which contractors new to the work were engaged, indicate that . the in spector is having his hands full'ln get ting the ''wetting-do'wn'r specifications properly adhered to. Where earth is available a generous layer thro wn~on~ makes an excellent cover and holds water well. Some careful road build ers in the West recognizing the value of curing concrete under water, have made earth dams along the edges of concrete roads and divided the road | longitudinally into a series of pools.
