Tile best results have been ob
tained by thoroughly mixing or
peddling the materials when wet.
For Ibis reason, it is desirable that
the mixing be done in wet weath
er. The mixing can be left to the
traffic after the materials have
been properly placed, but this in
volves a whole winter and spring
of bad road, and even then the
mixing i* not always satisfactory.
In all eases, it is desirable to dress
the road with a road machine or

terials have been thoroughly
mixed, and to give it a crown of
not more than 1 inch or less than
.2 i in:*fi to tin* foot from the ren
ter to the aides. A light renting
of sand may then be ad.lei. The*
use of the road machine or drag j
ahould l*e continued at frequent j
interval until the surface D
■tnroth and firm.
If the road to be treated is com- ^
posed of clay, it should first hei
brought to a rough grade with a !
road machine. The surface should ’
then be plowed and thoroughly j
pulverized by harrowing to a
depth of about 4 inches after
which it is gievn a crown or
slope of about 1-2 inch to the foot
from the center to the aide*. It
is then coxere 1 with f* to 8 inches
of clean, sharp sand, which is ;
ap-ea 1 thi-ker in the center thanj
•t the aides. The material should
then be mixed with plows an 1
harrows while they arc compara
tively dry. after which they arc
finally puddled with a harrow
during wet weather. If elav
works to the surface and the road
becomes sticky, more sand should
be added.
