ABOUT
DIE
00,01 BABIES
The Census Bureau estimates that
300,000 babies died in tins country last
year before the age -of one year, and it
is stated that one-half if these deaths
were needless if all mothers were
strong and infants were breast-fed.
Expectant mothers should strive to in
crease their strength with the strength
building fats in Scott's Emulsion which
improves the blood, suppresses ner
vousness, aids the quality of milk, and
feeds the very life cells.
Physicians prescribe Scott's Emul
sion; it is doubly important during
nursing. No alcohol. Everydruggist
has it. Insist on Soott'e the white
lood medicine. No advanced prices.

T1IE 5 odock tea veil is the newest and smartest thing. Hero it is shown in
black, the foundation being a hexagon mesh. A scroll figure and lace
edge affords a smart design. The short curve under the chin and the
long points over the shoulder give cause for the name. The straw and satin
turban with its dashing wing trimming is an especially smart type of hat for this
style of veil.

July 21, 1915.
Dear Sir: I have before me your letter of June 29th, asking for information in regard
to concrete highway construction.
The California Highway Commission has constructed and under construction about seven
hundred miles of concrete highway. The concrete construction is not intended to be exposed
to the continuous abrasion of traffic and is protected with sheet asphalt, Topeka mixture
Mastic surfacing or a bituminous wearing coa t. ' .
This last type the concrete base with the bituminous wearing coat make up the great
er part of our concrete highway construction, and is the type in which you are interested
Much of tins road which we have built has a concrete base fifteen feet wide and a minimum
thickness of four inches. Where the soil subgrade of the highway cannot be compacted bv
wetting and rolling to iriake a good f inn foundation, the concrete base is made thicker
(Usually a three foot shoulder of gravel or crushed rock macadam is built on each side of tho
concrete pavement, making the roadway twenty-one feet wide.
I am enclosing herewith a copy of our.spe cifications for the concrete foundation
The concrete base is built of Class "B" concrete. In one mile of concrete highwav fif
teen feet wiae and a four inch minimum thickness there are from 1,200 to 1500 w nf
coarse aggregate used. ' ons or
fn JS "T d?iYeif -S10 uearest 1,ailroad sitliS has cost from about $1.60 per barrel
to $2 60 per bai-re on the different sections of highway constructed throughout the state
Ihe distance to the railway transportation, the availability of supplies of concrete ag
gregate and the character of country over which supplies must be hauled are such ininor
tant factors m the cost per square yard of finished pavement that the cost o eaclf sec Sn of
road becomes a problem in itself, and any attempt at computng average c
Jhf,C-eKhe constructed for our highways is not intended to be exnosed to the
wear of traffic. It is protected by a bituminous wearing coat 3-8 of an inch ?n thickness

circular screen opening one-half an inch, in diameter, and from which subs
dust iias been removed. Uoarse sand of a like grading is equally satisfactory
Alter the screenings have been sufficiently incorporated in the oil, the
iugs is broomed into piles alongside of the road and the road is riven a seco
oil. This application is at the rate of one-quarter of a irnllon Tier sauare vtird. as was the
first. The oiled surface is covered with screenings. In the second coat, screenings earning
a small percentage of dust and fine material can be used.
The highway is now ready for traffic. It can be given a light rolling before opening to
traffic, though tin's is not necessary. The oiled surface may require further screening if the
surface shows a tendency to bleed.
We have had but little trouble due to any peeling off of the bituminous wearing .oat.
Some has been subjected to quite heavy traffi c for about two and one-half vears and shows
but little wear.
The bituminous covered concrete highways in this state have not been constructed for a
long enough period to furnish reliable data as to the average maintenance cost per square
yard. The bituminous wearing surf ace will re quire some patching during the first three
years of its life and may require complete renewal every four or five years under average
conditions of traffic, but our work is not yet old enough to furnish sufficient data for estimat
ing yearly maintenance cost.
We do not place any expansion joints in the concrete base, but allow the base to make its
own contraction cracks. If these cracks open up enough to permit filling, thev arc tamped
full of hot asphalt.
The concrete highway with the bituminous wearing surface is giving satisfaction in Cali
fornia. In our road building in this state we have not had to construct highways in regions
subjected to very severe frost action. Under the conditions found here, the minimum four
inch concrete base laid on the properly prepared subgrade has proved very satisfactory .
Yours very truly.

Highway Engineer.
