In all 41085 feet. These roads all commence in the Marion township line and the petitions should he corrected to correspond with this report and the evident intention of petitioners. WIDTH. Each portion of these several roads should be at least lifty feet wide and should be graded thirty feet wide, according to specifications and profile attached to this report. CONSTRUCTION OF ROAD BED. The road bed shall be cleared and constructed of earth. No rise of grade to exceed four feet per station. I lie l.ateral ditches shall in all cuts be at leas; oue foot iu depth, in fills two feet deep and at least one foot wide on bottom with slope of each bank of one *o one. Sewers and bridges with side drains to be located as In specifications so as to drain surface water at ail iioints from side ditches, according to specifications, MATERIAL. For sewers through the road lied best class sewer nipe to lie used. The bridges to lie made of capacity indicated in the specifications and gravei road to pay for same when costing less than seventy-five dollars, and Seventy-five dollars on those costing more than that sum. , For surfacing we have estimated all gravel, all broken stone or part broken stone surfaced with gravel. COST. We estimate that all gravel 14 inches in the cen'er and Pi at the side is equivalent to Macadam 10 inches in the center and 8 inches at the side or r. inches of Broken stone at the bottom and gravel on lop t; inches in center and two at side; right side hoard ro he placed four feet from right side of road lied going toward Rensselaer at all points outside of cori«jja;e limits, and location In town to lie indicated by Board of Trustees.

The difference we make in graveling or macadamizing is based on our knowledge of where material can he had and what it will cost to place the same upon the road. our estimate is based on good material either of gravel or broken stone. If gravel is used the larger particles should be evenly laid iu the bottom and the gravel should all he free from dirt, soil or quicksand. If macadam is used it should be so arranged that the larger broken stone shall he In tlie bottom and the smaller on the surface. If macadam Recovered with gravel the macadam should first tie placed on the surface and atterwards the gravel hauled thereon to the depth as indicated in die specifications. REMARKS. We file with this our report a profile and specifications for Clio use of bidders and superintendents to which reference is had, for all more specific facts in this behalf.
