SUGGESTION FOR ROADS.
National Vehicle Tax and n System
of Road Maps,

State Senator Earle OF Michigan Is
an enthusiastic advocate of good roads,
and he has induced several counties in
his state to provide funds for n prac-
tical demonstration of roadbuildng as
! It should be carried OH by city, county,
! state and federal governments, says
the Philadelphia North American. He
expects to start out next spring as soon
40 the season will permit with good
roads train drawn by traction engine,
which will make tour of the central
part Of the state, travelling about 500
: miles. Before the start central points
will be selected where the train will
stop and build sample mile OF good
road. y
Z Senator Earle urges an appropriation
q Of at least 100000 by congress for
the betterment of highways, and he
also advocates national vehicle tax of
90 cents year for that purpose. One
OF his schemes Is to have the govern
ment make road maps of every county
In the United States, showing bad
b roads In red, fairly good ones in blue
$ and improved roads in black. He
would have these county maps pub
lished In book form and sold at post
ofiices for 5 cents. Senator Earle says:
III wanted to buy farm in cer-
tain locality, my first step for the pur-
pose of investigation would be to pur-
chase one Of these little maps, and /
would be very sure that would pur.
chase my farm along the route Of one
Of these good roads, for have found
out from observation that 1t costs II;
cents less a mile to transport farm
produce over an improved road than
over bad one."
There is nothing more important
than good roads to the material well
Sfare Of a country, and 1t is to be hoped
that congress may have the wisdom to
take the matter up earnestly and make
; liberal appropriations in aid Of the
good roads movement even if 1t is
necessary to reduce the sum customa.
