WORK OF CL EMSON COLIA'G E.
The report of the board of trustees

summiary of work the past yeva:
In Submitting this, the tenth annuizl

the board of trustees to state that, not
Withstanding the low price of Cottoni
and the consequent stringency in inoni
cy luatters, the College has experiene

beyond our most. sanguinle anticipa

The wretched condition of' the on-,

hatuling coal and stpplies very heavy
indeed. To remedy this evil tle
board determiied to build a macadam,
road, both for convenience .and in

Loinl)eted1. li building it we were
materially assisted by Mr Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson (and the experts

The macadam road will largely rv
duce the expense of hauling, but if we
had a railroad bralich fron the saic

The fLegislature of South Carolina
last n1ht listened to tan enjoyable and
much otnjoyed common sen-se talk on
the subject of good roandzL. This themo
did not oecup y the entire time of L'rof.
k J. A. Holmes, of the University of
L North Carolina and State geologst,
butI ho referred briefly to many !ateit
resources which tshould )J developedl,
foa'ered and maintained.
Mr. Holmes is a native of SiutLh Car
olina, and though a young man, is
among the foremoht of those who are
devoting time and brain to the up
building of the South in tho develop
ment of natural riches. 1io is a self
made man, and the most forciblo illus
tration of the Cost, of bad roads which
he 118ed lasw, ught Ws18 tiken from it i
own..1 life. Hi rcelted how when a b.oy
no had made three bale of cotton to
iaid in obtaining an educatian. To hatil
that cotton from Liurens to Nowberry
i cost him $15, and conntmed live days,
on account of the horrihe rod*-as
much ien exes -( a4 a t tri 1a' Ne w Yori
on the cars.

North Carolina had be-a $1,000,000 an
nually on tils atcumnt. South Caro
lina's ptno forests arc not so much
ruined. The causes of th is devantation
a( sometim's ct' rnu'>s and SOmtie
i0tmes cu ettsed nese, and in North Cro

pealed to the 1,g iulare to throw saft -
guards a,ound Lhe pino forests and
also to protect the tum and the cypress
in the swamps w hero the land b bing
sold to fore ii li 1umbering corp )ration)e
for a pittance.
Ho speke (if the grood which the bu
rcau of geoi' gical survey was elfectine
it causing diversity of farming in-.
North Cairolina. andi sAid that tiue farm
ors were not comtiplainig of the Cost of
this hureau, for it had brought $10,.
000000 (if foreil capital Into the
State tatd had hl)ed the farmers to
pracettce eenomy. There is no use,
he said, for South Carolina to try to
get atppropoiations frm Congress to
help in such work unlc s hie State does
something itself. Our r-;resentatives
in Congresi are cryinz " paternalis,n
I'lu mad, and the wt zia and eaisI
urn mien tire saying, " giv - us appro
priations for our wat.! I ;icos and we
will do somethinag ourselves."
lie then came Lo the subject upon
which he was to address the general
asse iioly i)y invitation--goo roads.
i ie laid down the preposition that those
people who have not good roads aire
paying a "' mud, sand and hill tax."i
and for this they get nto benefit. Ni
creatuare itn the anim-il or vegetable
k ingdotm Is beneliled by bad roads, not
even La1,adpole, fot' they die in dry
weather. 1%-em lettors written to 10,000
(arm-iers, he Ihad been able to esti m'te
that the "'mud tax " has cost North Ca
ro inta $i0,000O,000 yearly, and the cost
in South Carolina is halt as gtreait.
W~ith his eteroopite',n he showed how
in othotr sections of Li iicountry hills
were graded, and the troads mnade
stmooth and litrm.
ia California convict labor is used Lu
prep~are the mnacadm at a cost of about
:5 cents a d-ry, against 75 eemnts inr
North Carolina totr fr'ee labor. He~ so
gestedi thatt a State rock crushing plaint
could be estab~ lshed aut or in con nection
wvith the South Crtol ina penitentiairy
and by convict labor' the eo-st, reduced
to a minimum. T1he counties could air
tange with the taih'roads for a nominal
iat od f ~transportLatun. Trhe poorer
countIes mtight say that it, was very
well for Grecenville, Spartanbutrg An
derson, etc., to undettake this work,
but they thtemselvesi co~uld tnt. i'r'of,
oloames sa'.d there was aus m uclh con,
mton senses Itt that statemet as there
ijuldl b: in the plaint of a country
merrchanit Lbhat he could( not keen hh,
store open becaus ho was not able to
do as tmutcit busi ness as a w holesale
s tore int Coleumibiat.
lie aidvised moderation antd coin n
sense in the iutdertak ing. S:2me sec
L:ons do not need as mnuern expense as
osthers. lie then comin Imernted the
roads of Richlandl County leading out
of Columbiai. The county supervisor I
had aiceomplished, so casily that he
hard-uly realized the value of. his wvork,
the building of roadis that are as easily
traveled as those celebrated roads of
Mecklenburg County, N .rt~h Carolina,
aind aut a cost of $100 peir mile, while the
latter had expended $3,000 a mnie. He
urgedl the Legislatture to advise their
i)eopie to experment with sand mind
clay, mixed to the proper consistenjy.
He eould give no formula as to the
comiposition, tas clay differs in the sev
oral sections of the State. Buit ordli
narily a saind road for a basis, wIth a
surface of four inches of clay, is thre
proper consIstency.
In thte laying of macadam he urged
system. 'rho substr'ata of larger' rock
should be carefully paicked, and it Is

travagance of Iad roads, and by com
parison argued that the perpetual tax
for bad roads would be far greater
than a tax for perpetual good roads.
Several good arguments for wide
tiro wagons wureadvanced throughout
the address. It may bo that an Indivi
dual in a community has a bard time
with a broad-tire vehicle whon the nar
row tires out the road and make the
broad tire appear at an unnatural dis
advantage. In 16 counties in North
Carolina they have the broad-tire wa
gon law and propose to have it in the
others when the proposed constitution
al amendment is adopted. It had
struk him forcibly that the narrow
tire would always follow the hard sur
face packed by the broad tirc. He
showed that under (qual conditions
the narrow tlro cut nitn inches into
tho ground while the broad tire sank
Out two inches and found itself a sur
le illustrated with attractive views;
the difference in carrying capacity of
a wagon ten times laden on hard roads
and one with a Ilimsy load on soft,
sticky roads. Ho claimed that one of
the items of mud tax wam accounted
for in the fact that grain could be
s)i pped here from the Misalssippi
valley as cheaply as it could be hauled
ver bad country roads to market.
