BUILDMACADAM ROADS

.: eavenworth, Aug. I-Some years ago
the state of Kansas built a few miles
of macadamiZed road out of Lansing
Only a few miles of road was construct
ted but it proved boon to the farm
ers and was greatly appreciated. 1t also
demonstrated that the state can use the
convicts to improve the highway and
do a great service to the public.
Warden Jewett recently announced
that he was working on a plan to build
a system of rock rOadwayS running
south and west from Lansing. He says
that he believes the labor of portion
of the cOnvicts can thus be prOfitably
used.
1t is a fact that a farmer can haul
double the weight of wheat in wagon
on a macadamized road. than he can
over the mud and dirt roads SO common
in this country.
anxious that the new state roads shall
be run by their places but the final To-
cation of the roads have not yet been
definitely decided upon. A good macad-
amized road running by a farm to a
market adds not less than five dollars
to every acre of ground so benefited. 1t
is the plan of the warden to build and
complete the road straight south OF
Lansing to the Wyandotte county line
and then a road west through Delaware
township and southwest through Dor
