The road lied shall be cleared and constructed of earth. No rise of grade to exceed four feet per stitlion. • ( The Literal ditches shall in all cuts be at least one foot in depth, in fills two feet deep and at least one foot wide on bottom with slope of each bank of one to one. u 1 Sewers and bridges with side drains to be located as in specifications so as to drain surface water a: all points from side ditches, according to specifications, * '1 MATERIAL. For sewers through the road bed best class sewer pipe to be used. The bridges to be m nlo of capacity indicated in the specifications and gravel road to pay for same when'eostin - 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 center ami 10 at the side is equivalent to Macadam 10 inches in the center aud 8 inches at the side or G inches of broken stone at the bottom and trrav el on top 6 inches in center and two at side; right side hoard to be placed four feet from rleriit side of road bed going toward Rensselaer at all points outside of corporate limits and location In town to be indicated by Hoard of Trustees. •- ’ uu iouKl< ’ u in COST OF COLLEGE ROAD.

The difference we make in graveling or macadamizing Is based on our knowledge of where material can he bail 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 in the bottom and the gravel should all bo free from dirt soil or quicksand. If macadam is used it should be so arranged that the larger broken stone shall bo In the bottom and tho smaller on the surface. If macadam ho covered with gravel the macadam should first bo placed on the surface and afterwards the gravel hauled thereon to the depth as indicated iu the specifications.
