Investigation by the Agricultural Depart
mept Is Giving Good Results.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O.-The investi-
CATION of road management and good
construction throughout the United
States, now conducted by the agricul-
tural department, is meeting with val
liable results. The cooperation of the
governor and secretary and geologist OF
each state in the. Union, of railroad OFF,
cials and of other persons, has been OBJ
tanned and they show q warm interest
in the work.
Many members of congress also have
responded to circulars sent out by As
sistant Secretary Willets. and General
Roy Stone, the special agent In charge
Of the inquiry. State biologists
are beginning, TO supply informa
ton and so railroad companies
have vent in reports of the engineers or
other employees. This information is
being tabulated, and when all has been
received the Office will prepare a map
showing the location and cost of the best
road materials throughout the country.
A bulletin outlining the new road
laws of IA states, and giving recommen-
dations made by influential public
bodies, not yet carried into legislation,
has been completed, and o will be
issued. The advance in road legisla-
ton, the bulletin says, proceeds on 10
distinct lines.
More rigid provisions for operating tho
all 1~,ofarx,a xrrkkrVx4 80 xh q m M nf
systems themselves, more liberal tax
levies, substitution Of money leyies in
place of labor; local assessment accord
ing to benefits for construction of new
roads; construction by townships with
power TO issue bonds; construction by
counties, state highway commissions,
provisions for working c~onvicts; dir It
state aid to road building and the build
ing Of state roads.
Expert Stone in his bulletin says:
1.-THE new law of Tennessee is consid-
cred the best example of the FIRST class,
giving the county courts full power and
direct control owe the whole subject of
roads. eliminating the evil influences Of
local politics, and the generally prevail
ing easy going methods. The court class.
lies the roads and appoints commissions
ers and assesses the road taxes.
! Vermont, New Hampshire. North
| Dakota and Oregon are deemed conspic-
nous examples of the class of increased
tax levies, the last named allowing
county courts to levy q special tax Of 90
cents on the $500, and % per head for q
county road fund.
