TIE GOOD ROADS CRUSADE.


Indications That New York VIII 5000 H
Out % the Mud.
The rcproach Of having the worst
public roads Of any country claiming
may perhaps soon be lifted
from the land There Ia, at any rate
good prospects now that the Empire
State will soon repudiate the reputation
The movement for good roads" has NJ
ceived great impetus throughout the
state during the past few weeks A de-
cided change Of heart and front has come
about In the quarters most influential to
the accomplishment Of the objects sought
IN the good roads crusade. and New
York will soon step TO the front rank
among the is states that have taken up
the matter Of better road construction
The great difficulty in the way has
been the finding Of q good system to su-
persede the old and inadequate labor
system" dating back from colonial
times under which the taxes for road
maintenance may be paid in work on
the roads. There has been and still Is q
wide difference Of opinion among those
thoroughly convinced Of the necessity OF
a radical change as to the best method
Of effecting it, The county road law
recently passed by the legislature has
lately won many supporters although
for some time there was great opposition
70 its adoption. 1t has an especial pro-
vision recurring all road taxes to be paid
in money. and this provision is attract
ing support for the law.
The Farmers club Of central New
York, an important and influential or
eanization. adopted resolutions recently
strongly favoring the money system anc
warmly indorsing the county road Law
As "a hopeful effort toward universally
rood roods The club estimates that thu
loss from the use Of the present roads
throughout the state amounts TO IS, 600.
600 annually in the haulage Of crop
alone. besides loss in failure to tax
prompt advantage Of markets, loss II
vehicles. harness and animals, and los
in comfort, health and decency. tn
matter Of road improvement was de
clared 70 be 1.-The one great state ques
ton bearing on agricultural prosperity.
The New York state grange. whic
represents some 80. 900 farmers through

recent session in Utica strongly cor
demning the present system and 'ndor'
ing system Of state roads, provide
the personal property Of the state
made TO bear its proportionate part
the taxation necessary for such roads.
The plan Of paying road taxes i'll none,
lust as other taxes are paid, was stronl
" indorsed A permanent committs
was appointed to keep close watch on Il
progress Of the good roads movemel
and TO suggest TO the grange appropria

The quantity Of water required to
keep macadam roads from becoming
dusty depends on the conditions Of the
weather, the kind Of material used In
the roadway, the dimensions Of the
roadway and its exposure to the sun.
In the vicinity Of New York city It was
determined some years ago that !. 600
square yards Of road surface could be
kept fairly free Of dust by the use OF q
sprinkler which spread water at the rate
OF 7i.3 cubic feet twice day on each
900 square yards Of road surface. max.
ing total Of l43 cubic feet Of water foE
each I. 900 square yards. But some road
materials are softer than others, and the
wear Of their surfaces IL consequently
faster. and this hastens the accumula.
ton Of dust II the road Is exposed e
the hot sun and warm brcczes, the Wa
ter evaporatcs very quickly. The figures
given above will perhaps represent
fair average, but TO determine the figures
with exactncss each locality must b
subjected to separate test Exchange
