A country without roads will remain
undeveloped, its hidden treasures stored

If two horses haul the load of four, one

three he made per hour, the aggregate
saving would double the net income of the
average farmer This desideratum can
only be accomplished by the means of
good public roads.
The effect of good public roads upon
land value is to increase the value of such
lands.
Experience has shown that the value of
ground is in direct ratio to the good condi-
tnu Of the streets or roads which traverse
them.
