quires that the authorities should be as

Bad roads, mud, ruts and irregulari-
ties are expensive things. An old
farmer used to say that ruts and freez-
ing and thawing cost him new wagon
every five years. Very few people
realize what rough roads cost them.
OF course, it is only bolt to-day, II tire
tomorrow, a wheel sprung next week
or an axle warped out of shape at some
other time, but these things come,
sometimes overlapping like shingles on
a roof; they are put down to wear and
tear and in way accepted as the inevi-
table simply because roads have always
been bad and one scarcely has right to
expect anything else. But the difference
in the lasting qualities of wagon on a
thoroughly good road and an extremely
bad one would surprise the owner Of
such vehicle were he able to keep
track of the exact figures in the two
conditions.
