According to Col. Albert A. Pope. the
census returns show that there are in the
United States about 15.OOOOO0 horses, over
2,OOO.ON mules and 5000 asses. The an
nuai cost of feed for these animals Is about
575,OO0.OOO. On fine stone roads one horse
can haul as much as three horses can haul
over the average art road of this country.
1t Is estimated that it would be necessary
to build about 100000 miles of macada-
miZed road in the United States In order
to have as good q system of public high
ways as Is found in several European
states. At $4,000 per mile this would IN
vo:ve an outlay of $1,000, OOOUD But IL
one-ESh of the draft animals could be dis
pensed with by the building of such roads
there would be an annual saving of S7SS-

bonds were issued bearing 3 per cent In

sum annually to build the 1.0O0,0OO miles
needed in order to put this country on a
par with France in the matter OF good
