Timely Road Repairs Adriveover our country roads at this time of the year suggests the im- portance of livediug the tent-lung of the old proverb about "the stitch ini time.” For instance one frequently! meets the little stremu that comes running down the space usually cover- ed bV the Wetgnn wheel. This little stredm is muddy enough, and tells the story of a wasting roadway, that will cost, in all probability, many a dollar; before it is repaired. Then, again-â€" and this refers to our gravelled roads, more particularlyâ€"one comes across many usmall hole in the road, with its little pool of muddy water nesting snugly at the bottom. One kn We the result in this c use: each passing vehicle Wlll make the hole deeper and wider, till. in a few days, there is quite a mudhole. l \Vould it not ha well for the local authorities to be on the alert to mend these defects in the road before they become serious? Each section of two or three miles should have a couple of men employed during the days when the first wheeled vehicles are on the road. to see that neither standing nor running water is allowed to do harm. Often, a. few minutes will suffice to dig atrench that will turn the running water into a ditch or a culvert, and a few herrowfuls of gravel gathered from the sides of the wagon-track, or a barrowful of broken stone, will fill up an incipient mudhole. Indeed the‘ proper thing for municipalities to do is to leave the roads smooth and level in the the fall, but this is very dificult. owing to the fact that late fall and earl winter usually have their share of weather and heavy traffic, thst test the qualities of even the best of roads. Railroad companies know the value of the section sag, whose duiy it is to attend to s ler repairs. .
