COSTLY CHIMES FOR CADETS
Big Set of Bells It Being Made for
Chapel at United States Military
Academy at West Point.
What Is said will bo tho most coBtly
chlmo of bells In America nnd one of
the most musical sets In cxlstenco Is
now being mado at tho foundry of tho
Menccly Bell company of Troy, N. Y
for tho massive tower of cadet chapel,
Hev. H. P. Silver, chaplain, at the
United States military academy, West
Point, as the gift of, Mrs. James M.
Lawton, In memory of her father, the
late. MnJ. Gen. Robert Anderson, who
was graduated from the academy In
1825, nnd whose brllllcnt command of
Fort Sumter at the outbreak of tho
Civil war has thrilled millions of rend
ers of American history, says tho
Watchman-Examiner.
There will be 12 bells In the chime,
the largest weighing nenrly two tons
nnd measuring 50 Inches nt its mouth.
The cadet chapel Is of stone, qunrrled
from rock found on the military
grounds, nnd cost to build about half
a million dollars. Its commanding po
sition on the hill back from the Hud
son river makes nn Ideal place for
bells, and the patriotic airs from the
chime will sound throughout the beau
tiful highlands, In the midst of which
the military academy Is Bltuated, and
provo n source of Inspiration to the fu
ture generals of the United States
army that will always linger with them
pleasantly.

(Prepared by tho United Stntos Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Tho proper method to employ In
constructing a sand-clay roud surface
depends on the conditions to be met.
In generul, there arc four distinct sets
of conditions, all of which may occur
In the same locality, or even on dif
ferent sections of the same rond.
These nre:
Case 1, where the original roadbed
Is sandy and It Is desired to construct
the surface by admixing clay;
Case 2, where the original rondbed
Is composed of clay nnd It Is desired
to construct the surface by ndmlxltig
sand ;
Case 3, where It Is desired to con
struct the surfneo of topsoll or other
natural sand-clny mixture without nd
mlxltig any of the roadbed materia! ;
Case 4, where it Is desired to supply
the clay nnd snnd separately and mix
the two materials together In place to
form the surface.
Before discussing the different cases
separately, the general ends which nil
can best be described separately for
each of the four sots of conditions
mentioned above.
Case 1. To construct n sand-clny
surface by admixing clay with snnd
from the roadbed, first grade the road
bed In the manner already described
fur earth-bed construction, but keep
the crown Hat on the portion to be
surfaced. Then spread clay over that
pnrt of the roadway which the sur
face Is to cover, to such depth that,
when It N mixed with the snnd of the
roadbed, n surface about eight Inches
thick, after compacting, will bo ob
tained. The loose depth of clay neces
sary to secure u finished surface eight
Inches thick usually will vary from
four Inches to six Inches, according to
the amount of sand the clay contains
After tho clay has been spread, plow
up sand from beneath In sufficient
quantity to make tho net proportion
of snnil to clay nbmit 2 to 1. Ordinari
ly the plow furrows should extend
down Into tho sand from four to six
Inches, depending on the compactness
of the roadbed and the amount of snrid
originally present In the clay. But
It Is better to bnve too little than too
much sand, because It la easier to ndd
saod from the roadbed than tn haul
additional clay. Next harrow the sur
face with a disk harrow. Itepent the
operations of plowing and harrowing
until the sand nnd clny nrc mixed thor
oughly and uniformly. Then shape up
the surface with a grading machine or
road drag and pi.mlt trafllc upon It.
After the first soaking rain, plow nnd
harrow tho surface ngaln until the
surfacing material prnctlcolly becomes
mud. after which shape up tho surfaeo
and keep It In shnpe by repeated drag
ging until It has dried out ,nnd 1?
thoroughly compacted. Watch the rond
carefully for several months ufter It

of the construction methods should
aim to attain will be summarized
briefly.
(1) The questions of location, de
sign, drainage, grading, etc., nre, If
anything, more Important In the caso
of sand-clny roads than in the case of
earth roads.
(2) The amount of clay contained In
a ' finished sand-clay road surface
Bhould bo only slightly more than suf
ficient to fill the voids in tho sand.
Ordinarily about one pnrt of cloy to
two parts of sand gives satisfactory
results, though the proper proportion
for any particular case can be deter
mined best by experiment.
(8) For nvernge country-road trafllc
and a stable roadbed, the depth of a
sand-clny surface should be nbout
eight Inches after it Is compacted. If
clean sand and puro clay wero used to
make the mixture, the rcspectlvo
depths of the sand layer and the clay
layer required would be approximate
ly eight Inches nnd four Inches, meas
ured loose. It Is customary to decrease
the surface thickness from center to
sides, with n feather edge extending
out over the shoulders, but this prac
tice makes It necessary foremost of
he traffic to use the center of tho
Is first constructed, to correct defi
ciencies of sand or clay and to keep
the surface In shnpe.
Cobo 2. To construct n sandy-clay
road surface by admixing sand with
cluy from tho rondbed, the process.. 1..
exactly similar to that described fot
Case 1, except that sand Is spread over
the graded roadbed and clay Is plowed
up from bencnth to mix with it. The
depth to which the sand should be
spread for an eight-Inch finished sur
face usually vnrles from four to eight
Inches according to tho nmount of
snnd contained originally in the clay
of tho rondbed. The depth to which
the plow furrows should extend down
Into tho clny usually varies from nbout
three Inches to about five Inches, nnd
depends on the sand content of the
clay nnd the compactness of the rond
bed. It should be borne In mind thnt,
In this case, it Is better to have a sur
plus of snnd than 'a surplus of clay
In the surface, because the former Is
more easily corrected.
Caso 8. Figure 2 illustrates the two
principal steps Involved In construct
ing a sand-clay surface with topsoll
or other nntural Hnnd-olny mixture.
Tho roadbed should be graded In the
usual way, except that the portion to

rood, and heavy vehicles using tho
edge of tho surface are liable to break
through the surfacing material.
(4) In constructing a sand-clay sur
face, the two constituent materials
should be thoroughly and Intimately
mixed together In till cases. In mak
ing artificial mixtures, therefore, much
plowing and harrowing are required.
(0) No matter what method Is fol
lowed In constructing a sand-clay sur
face, trafllc usually must bo depended
upon to puddle nnd compact tho sur
facing material, and tho road never
should be considered completo until
nfter It hns been subjected to trafllc
for n considerable period. During this
period the surface should be kept in
shnpe by repented drugging, and If
necessary additional sand or clny
should bo supplied at points which
show weakness owing to these ma
terials not having been mixed In proper
'proportions.
I Other features of the construction
bo surfaced should b trenched out
with the grading machlno to rccelye
the surfacing material. Tho surfacing
material should be spread to such a
depth that 11 will bo at least eight
Inches thick at tho center when com
pacted. Case 4. Where it Is necessary to
1 bring tho sand nnd clay on tho road
I separately and mix them In place, the
method employed should be a combi
nation of tho methods already de
scribed. That Is, a trench should be
formed with tho grading machlno to
receive tho bottom layer of material,
which may bo either tho sand or tho
clay, and tho top layer should then bo
spread and tho mixing dono as de
scribed In Caso 1 or Caso 2. Tho
depths of tho rcspectlvo layers Bhould
be such as to secure a completed sur
face at least eight inches thick, and
the proportions should bo fixed lu tho
manner already described In discussing
the other cases.

On the battle fields of France and Flanders, the United States boys and the
Canadian boys are fightingside by side to win for the World the freedom that Prus
Bianiem would destroy, while doing this they must be fed and every ounce of
muscle that can be requisitioned must go into use to save this year's crop. A short
harvest period requires the combined forces of the two countries in team work; such
as the soldier boys in France and Flanders are demonstrating.

A reciprocal arrangement for the uae of farm workers has been perfected between the Depart

under which it b propoaed to permit the harvesters that are now engaged in the wheat fields of Okla
homa. Kansas. Iowa. North Dakota, South Dakota. Nebraska. Minnesota and Wisconsin to move
over into Canada, with the privilege of later returning to the United States, when the crops In the
United States have been conserved, and help to save the enormous crops la Canada which by that
time will be ready for harvesting.
