that community. After the piece of
experimental road 1* built tt is expect
ed that the good work Shull go on.
One of the recent works liegun hy
the office of public road* i* the con-
structinm’of a road from the station at
Occoquan, Va., to the old town of Oe-
cmpinn, a distance of two aud a half
miles. The road was a good sample of up
hlii and down dale, with mud almost
any defftli, until the experts' in road
building got hoH of and Improved it.
In order to obtain the amistance of
the department application must be
made by the properly constituted local
authorities who have legal control of
the road* In tkelr community. The as
sistance given Is Intended to lie purely
educational. The ability of the depart
ment to furni»li machinery is a great
help to many conmn|uitles, as In that
way the local authorities get a prac
tical demonstration of Just what they
. ox’iccted to purchase for a continu-
e of the work. The department se-
euied funds for the purchase of ma
chinery, which it shifts from place to
place ns It -is needed In Its experi
mental work.
The department has begun experi
mental roads In many parts of the
country from the Atlantic to the Pa-
eftic afiJ from the Canadian line to the
gulf. Each section requires a some
what different plan of imprivement,
