Editor Astorlan; SU-: It gives me great pleasure to see by the proceedings of our city council that they are making a movement with the object in view of Improving our present sityle o street covering, more particularly in respect to street crossings. Since I always take an interest in this subject and have always advocated the use of macadam cr some more substantial form of street covering than at present In use, I take Hie liberty of trespassing upon your valuable space to set for.h a few words uptn urban streets, more especi ally in respect to subsurban streets, where the traffic Is not of a very heavy nature. The essential requisites of a good street pavement are that It shall be smooth and hard in order to promote easy draft; that it shall give a firm and secure foothold for animals, and not become polished and slippery from use; that it shut be as noi selves and free from dust as possible; ami that It shall be easily cleaned, and jthall not absorb and reKain the surface liquids, but facilitate their prompt dis charge initio the side gutters and catch ibasins. lit should also ba of uA jnateri. at and construction that it can be reexli. ty Oaken up in places, and quickly and firmly retold, so as to give aasy access to water, gas and sewer pipes.
