sewer is 45 catchbasins requiring 20 man holes the base of the road is made of concrete b inches thick which was put down in the remarkably short tim of 20 days scarcely any inter ruption was caused

canada cement co lake- field ontario tlie number of cubic yards of cement in the work measures 23000 the surface of the road went down in 12 days being built in two courses the first course is 1 inches thick composed of large stone and coarse sand while the fop or finishing coat is one inch thick composed of fine sand small and stone dust both these mixtures contain asphalt which comes in a liquid form in insulating tank cars from the imperial oil montreal who import it in tank steamers from trinidad five tank cars each con taining forty tons of asphalt were used in the stouffville job

used three carloads of stone dust brought from beachville ontario every day a sample of the pave ment was sent to the laboratory in boston to be tested and diagnosed tor quality and strength the preparation of the asphalt mixture entailed setting up of a huge plant on frank sangsters lot at the south end of blake street resembling a quite large manufactur ing establishment the big smoke stack towering in the air and belch ing out its smoke may be seen from any part of the town here the asphalt was mixed and heated to 350 degrees fahrenlieit witli fuel oil brought in lank cars from sarnia
