BAD ROAD TAX.
Something for Farmers to Read and
Ponder Over.

There is great deal of disagree
ment among farmers and business
men as to the best methods of road
making and road management.
Some hold to the old district SUI
pervisor system believing that it
cannot be improved, others believe
that the road District should not
be smaller than District, and the
work done by contract, or under
direction of supervisor appointed
by the County Court, and the tax
paid in cash; while still others
hold that the county management
is just the thing. Good roads can
be made on all these methods, pro-
vided competent, energetic men can
boss the job; a man who knows how
to move dirt and rubbish economi-
cally, who understands what it
takes to make good road, and who
can get work out of the men, wheth-
er working out their road tax or
hired by the day or by the month,
is the proper person to improve
and construct our highways. The
point we wish to emphasize is that
however they might disagree as to
how they pay their taxes for good
roads, they are all paying bad
road tax. This is tax that does
not pass through the hands of the
Sheriff. Every community by fail
ing to adopt the best method on
which they can agree in making
good roads levies the bad road tax
and pays it, each man in proportion
to what he needs to use the roads
The man who fails to get the prod
ucts of his farm to market because
ofimpassable roads and loses large
per cent on the price, is paying his
bad road tax. The man who is
obliged to go to market with thirty
bushels of wheat on bad mud roads
when had he succeeded in getting
the roads properly worked might
have taken sixty bushels, is paying
his bad road tax. The man who
has to hitch his horses and walk in
to town because he cannot get
through mud hole is paying his
bad road tax. If farmers and bust
ness mon would think of the
amount of bad roads tax they are
paying every year, they would in
time learn the necessity of agitat-
ing the subject SO thoroughly that
some system of improving our mud
roads would be adopted.
