Maryland Improvements.

Figures gathered by the State Geo
logical Survey in Maryland as pre-
liminary to the work of road improve
ment in that State show that of the
4,4S3 miles of public road in the
State only 1860 miles are improved.
The road laws are not Of a character
to insure good roads, and, as a result,
the roads are badly located, badly
graded, badly drained and badly sur
faced, causing a very heavy tax on all
hauling. The average distance each
ton of freight is hauled to or from
the Maryland farms is 6.7 miles; the
average cost is twenty-six cents a mile
per ton, or S1.74 o ton for the whole
haul. There are about 5000, 900 acres
of farm land in Maryland, and there
is about one ton of freight hauled an
nually per acre to or from each farm.
The total cost, therefore, of this trans
portation is over $500, 600 a year,
The cost of hauling in New Jersey
has been reduced One-half where the
roads are improved. Therefore, by
improving Maryland roads one-half OF
this sum could be saved. Making a
liberal allowance for the fact that part
of the hauling is done over toll-rOads,
and that some of it goes over unimpor-
tant roads that could not be immedi-
ately improved, it is estimated that at
least 100000 year could be saved
by improving the main roads in the
State. A similar estimate is reached
by considering the reduction in the
number of draught animals necessary,
and the saving in the wear aud tear on
animals, wagons and harness by good
roads, New York Post.
