HIGHWAYORAINGLTiles

Stone Roads

SOME POINTS ON THE WORK

Underdrainajjo Below Surface WithFarm Tiles a Great Protection SidDitches That Hold Water Make anInferior Roadway

Tile drainage says Professor Ira OBaker Is the very best preparation fota gravel or a stone road Gravel orbroken stone placed upon an undralnedfoundation is almost sure to sink grad-ually

¬

whatever Its thickness whereasa thinner layer upon an undcrdralncdroadbed will give much better serviceRoads tiled without gravel are better

than roads graveled without tileThe road should be uudordrnlncd so

as to keep the water level woll belowthe rond surface In most localitiesthis can bo accomplished reasonablywell by laying a line of farm tile threeor three and a half feet bolow the roadsurface along one side of the road-way

¬

It Is sometimes claimed thatthoro should bo a the on oach sIde ofthe road

Sonic writers on good roads advocatetho use of a line of tile under tho mid ¬

dle of the traveled portion aud someadvocate a line on each side of thowheel way The object sought by those l

tiles Is rapid drainage and therefore itU urged that they should lie laid nearthe furfnce It is doubtful whetherany water will reach the tile since theroad surface when wet la muddled bythe traffic which prevents the waterpercolating through the soil and It iscurtain that In clay or loam the drain ¬

age thus obtained is of no practicalvalue More than one farmer has triedto drain his barnyard by laying thenear the surface always without ap ¬

preciable effectWhile a line of tile on one side of

the road Is usually sufficient there isoften a great difference as to the sIdeon which It should bo laid If one sideof the road Is higher than the otherthe tile should bo on the high side toIntercept tho ground wator that isflowing down the slope under the sur¬

faceThetine should be laid in the bottom

of the silt ditch below the frost lineOf course the tile should have a uni ¬

form grade and a sufficient fall and anadequate outlet The size of the tilerequired will depend upon the lengthof the line and tho grade of the ditchbut local experience in farm drainageIs likely to be a better guide than anygeneral statement that can be madeFarm drainage Is almost certain toprecede road drainage in any particu ¬

lar localityTho side ditches are to receive tho

water from tho surface of the traveledway and should carry It rapidly andentirely away from the roadside Theyare useful also to Intercept and carryoff the water that would otherwiseflow from the side hills upon the roadOrdinarily they need not be deep andIf possible should have a broad flaring side toward the traveled way toprevent accident If a vehicle should bocrowded to the extreme side of+ theroadway The outside bank should beflat enough to prevent caving Theproper form of ditch Is easily made bythe usual road machine or road grad-er

¬

The side ditch should have a freooutlet Into some stream so as to carrythe water entirely away from the roadNo good road can bo obtained withBldo ditches that hold the water untilIt evaporates
