ROAD BUILDING IS BOOMING
Steady Increase In Federal Aid Busi
ness in All Sections—Expendi
tures $300,000,000.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Since early in 1910 there has been
a steady increase each month in the I
federal aid business in the bureau of !
public roads of the United States de
partment of agriculture. States in all j
sections of the country are filincr their !
projects and receiving allotments. The |
road-building era is in full swing, and [
it would seem that the end is not yet.
All indications point to greater rec
ords in the months immediately to
come.
! Based on complete reports from 44
of the states rash expenditures on the :
rural roads and bridges of the United
Slates for the calendar year 1918
amounted to $286,098,193. To this
should he added the value of statute
and convict labor, which cannot be
! fixed with any great degree of ao
; curacy hut probably amounted to not
less than $14,000,000, thus making the
grand total expenditures for the year
$300,000,000. This total is made up of
(he actual expenditures for such items
as labor, materials, supervision and
> administration directly connected
| with the construction, improvement
I and upkeep of public roads and
bridges outside the limits of incorpo
rated towns and cities, and does not
include any item for sinking-fund pay
ments or redemption and interest on
road and bridge bonds.
The year 1918 offered an unprece
dented condition in practically all
lines of highway work. There was
not only a tremendous increase and
expansion in the amount of heavy
truck traffic on public roads and an
unprecedented shortage in regard to
road materials, lahor and ready funds,
hut also a decided increase in main
tenance work, which was, however,
partially offset by a decrease in the
amount of new construction.
PLANS FOR GOOD ROAD DRAG
One Shown in Illustration Is Adapted
for Localities Where Lumber Is
Plentiful.
‘Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture )
The design for a road drag shown
in the illustration is adapted for lo
; enlities in which sawed lumber may he
i readily obtained. In this design the
, runners are made of 2 or 2%-lnch
hoards, 10 inches wide and from 6 to
8 feet long, re-enforced with other 2
• inch boards of the same length, hut
1 only 6 inches in width. If more con
, venient. however, 4-inch runners with
out re-enforcing hoards may be read
ily substituted for those shown. The
method of framing the runners togeth
er is a modification of that used
PLAfIKb
Detail Drawing Showing Typical Con
struction of Road Drag Built of
Sawed Lumber.
In connection with the split-log type
of drag. In this case only two of the
cross braces have their ends fitted into
auger holes like rungs.
In fastening the draw-chain to a
sawed-luinber drag, it is usually advis
able to run both ends of the chain
through holes in the front runner or
else make the connections by means
of eye or hook bolts, as shown. The
reason for this is that the sawed cross
braces are seldom sufficiently strong
to withstand the pull of the chain
when it is looped over them, as is fre
quently done when round timber cross
pieces are used. If straight grained
pieces are used for (he crosspieces,
however, there is no apparent reason
1 why one end of the chain might not be
. connected by looping it around the 2%•
i Inch square crosspiece near the cut
i ting end.
Highway Travel Increasing.
Highways travel by means of the
passenger automobile increased great
' ly during the past summer, fully fifty
‘ per cent.

Must Have Good Roads.
It costs money to build a good road,
but we have got to have them, as the
experience of the past and the comic**,
winter will demonstrate.

CARLOAD OF
NEW FURNITURE
We have just finished unloading another car of
furniture and the newest home comforts and con
veniences can now be found on display at our big
store. Furniture, like other things, is hard to get,
and this carload was bought in the face of still
greater advance in prices. But we saved money
for our customers two ways—we bought before
the last advance and in car lots. We are the only
furniture dealers in Newark who buy in large
quantities and this is another of the many reasons
why we are recognized as “Newark’s Leading
Furniture and Hardware Store.” "
Good furniture gives your house a feeling that v
spells home. Right now, at housecleaning time is 4
the time to buy and install new furniture, and we 4
would be pleased to have you come and inspect 4
our stock and make your selections early. 4
