1t has been a process longer than
many roads to teach the farmer that
it costs him more to carry his pro-
duce TO the nearest railway station
than to send II to the distant market.
From farm to point of shipment Is
the most expensive part of traEspor-
tation. But this lesson has been quite
thoroughly disseminated, especially in
the States east of the Mississippi and
north of the Ohio. 1t has been fol-
lowed by more detailed instruction as
to materials, grades and draining in
road-construction, and the marked
economy to be effected by the use OF
wide tires.
The old national highway, whose
construction first raised the question
of the relation of the federal govern
ment to interstate communication. is
an enduring example of what national
assistance can accomplish. But the
general policy has been adopted of
leaving road-building TO local needs
and energy.
