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 Tpbntere I log drag after the ma 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. HOTEL QUEST CHECKS $10,000 SLIPPERS. Srfn Francisco, Jan. 20.
