Some Figures on the Cost of Macadamizing
Roads.
Editor T5nd5caior:

Editor Tmdicat0r:
Never before in the history of our county
and State have the capitalists and citizens
generally OF other more wealthy and pOpu-
lous sections of the Union, shown such dis
position to aid in the development of our
magnificent natural resources. New cities,
embracing vast manufacturing enterprises,
are springing up in our midst and around u.s.
Old cities have shaken off the dust of ages
and are making giant strides in industrial en-
terprise and increased population. Does it
not behoove the great and wealthy county of
Augusta to furnish better facilities for the
conduct of the present and the increased bust
ness traffic OF the county? l think her people
are willing, as they are able. to say to the
world that we will pledge ourselves to provide
you good, comfortable roads, over which all
internal business can be transported at the
lowest possible cost and at any time.
believe that a we'll graded road with one
track of macadam 10 feet wide and inches
thick, and one good dirt track of say 10 feet in
width. is preferable to macadam road 20
feet wide. The travel will generally prefer
the dirt track in dry weather, and Since the
metal track wears only in dry weather. the
saving to the metal track will be consider
able. The experience of our Kentucky cous-
ms is that a single track is ample.
arrive at the cost OF matchmaking track
10 feet wide and inches deep, from PROPOSE
tractors who are familiar with that character
of work
The late Capt. q. Il. Mason, offered, some
eight OF ten years ago, to take the contract to
metal 100 miles of the most important roads
of the county, ~ feet wide and 1Oinches deep,
for ST $50 per mile, he said there was good
profit to contractors at that price. The facil-
tiles in the way of improved machinery are
better now than then for doing such work,
therefore | think it can be done now for
less.
Messrs. Newman Il Wilson, road cOntrac-
tors, say that in many places where metal is
convenient the work can be done for 81 900
per mile, and that the average cost will not
exceed 81 200 per mile. They are willing to
undertake the work at these rates.
l am welded to no plan. believe the work
can be and ought to be we'll done. AS plan,
| would prefer to eXpend each Districts pro
rata share of the money within the district;
to let each districts roads to separate con-
tractors or, if one contractor should have
more than one district, require the work to
commence simultaneously in all of the dis
tricts, and that the roads to be metaled in
each district should be designated by the
Road Boards Of each district approved by the
Board of Supervisors or County Court or both
as may be deemed best.

And make us lose the good we oft might win

B. NJ. d. s PLAN FOR GOOD ROADS.
An editorial in the Shendun News, writ
ten, presumably, by Maj. Jed. Hotchkiss,
who may almost claim to be an expert in
road matters himself, says among other
things of the discussion by correspondents
now going on in the columns of the VIM
DICTATOR over B. M. D. s road plan for
ending the annual waste of the peoples
road taxes by borrowing $3.50, 900 to mac
adamize $50 miles of roads, that ''B. M.
ID. estimates the cost of matchmaking
roads in a thorough manner at 81 900 per
mile. He probably calculates on an actual
roadbed of about eighteen feet. Capt.
McQuaide, the efficient chairman of the
street committee of the Staunton council
kindly furnishes the information that it
costs that city ten cents per cubic yard to
crush its stone, and fifteen cents to haul
and spread it. The haul averages about
One-half mile. An examination of these
figures, which are of course higher than they
would be in the country, will show that
WIN pllCu ttloHS5 VIC IOtcu wv
points distant from each other not more
than two miles, an 1S-foot roadway could
be covered with good macadam six inches
deep for $3.50 per mile. If these piles are
made at one-half a mile apart instead of
two miles the amount of haul would of
course be One-fourth, while the lower rate
of wages, hauling, etc., in the country
would probably reduce the above estimate
per mile by about One-third. Will not the
farmer be willing to deliver the loose and
worthless stone from his farm along the
line of his own roads provided the county
will make provision to crush and spread
it ? 1t can be done at almost no cost to
himself, and, as shown above, the taxes on
the county by such a method would be
very slight"

An investment at Staunton is one that
can have no disaster before it. Are we
putting too much emphasis Oh the increas-
ed value industries give to property? Last
Friday we rode over a town. neal here, in
which just a year ago, that day, we saw the
first lot sale. Lots were selling at anywhere
from $3.50 to $500. Last Friday we saw
the owners of the same property refusing
So 900, s. 800 and So, 900 for it. Some of the
owners of the lots there-indeed many of
the owners-are Augusta county men,
What caused this marvellous increase in q
tWelve-month? Because factories were built
there in that time. and many of which were
at work. In East Staunton the Staunton
Development Company has never offered a
lot for sale until these industries pere
erected. The man who buys lots there in
June can see the factories standing and can
know just what he is buying. There are
no ''ifS'7 i'll this tranSaction-if this facto-
ny is built the land will be marketable, OF

assured. The acorEs are there and there
will be more Of them yet before the summer
is fairly on us.
We do not need to rehearse the manufac-
turing, commercial and transportation ad-
yantages of Staunton. They are as well
known as those of Richmond, Lynchburg
OF Norfolk. The timber and the ore are
right around us, and the transportation is
here on tracks reaching to every quarter of
the Union--and in the matter of TRANSPORT
