ROAD PROGRESS IN OHIO.
Improvement Does Net Keep Pace
With the Demand of the Times.

Improvement Does Net Keep Pace
With the Demand of the Times.
Ohio has by no means kept pace In
the matter Of roadbuilding throughout
the country districts either with the
progress made in steam railways or IN
the improvement Of city streets, where
within the past twenty-five years the
old macadam and bowlder thorough.
fares have given way almost entirely
to the more perfect and lasting granite,
brick and asphalt, says the Cincinnati
Commercial Tribune.
1t is true there is in this state law
which enables the townships through
out Ohio to improve their road system,
known as the free turnpike law, and 1t
has done wonders for the common
roads Of the state during the twenty
five years or more that 1t has been In
force. Perhaps few other states have
similar laws, but they are not general.
The ordinary country roads throughout
the country generally are, as they have
always been, things to avoid in the sea-
son of freezing and thawing, during
which they are usually impossible.

Road Progress In Tennessee.

Judging from the enthusiasm which
attended the recent annual meeting Of
the Tennessee Good Roads association,
much work in the Improvement Of
highways will be accomplished In that
state next year. The convention was
not content with academic discussions
Of the advantages of good roads, the
best material for roadways and the
like, but took practical steps toward a
realization Of the ideals. To secure
united action throughout the state and
70 build up an organization which
would be strong enough to demand leg
islation each county court was urged
to send three delegates to each annual
meeting Of the State Roads association.
It was decided also to ask the legisla-
ture for the appointment Of state en-
gineer to consult with county super
intendents in the matter Of roads and
bridges and for legislation which would
permit the employment Of jail inmates
In roadmaking.

What 1t Is Accomplishing For Road
Improvement.
In q recent bulletin reviewing the
work of road Improvement In New
York state State Engineer Bond says:
The legislature appropriated $4,000
for road improvement this year, and
in the three years in which road i'm
provement work has been In progress
20 roads, having a total mileage Of 45
miles, have been improved at cost Of
$685., 600; that SO roads, having a mile
age Of 100 miles, are now undergoing
improvement at a cost Of S713,7 ,73O;
that funds have been awarded for the
improvement of 8 roads having mile
age of miles at cost Of $56, 800, and
that plans have been approved by
boards of supervisors Of 12 counties
for the improvement Of Al roads, hav-
ing q mileage Of 1874 miles, which
would impose an expense upon the
state and the counties, If adopted, of
$1,091, ,443.
When all the roads already improv-
ed, those under improvement and
those whose improvement is suggested
have been improved, LOG will have
been constructed in % counties, cov-
ering 80 miles, at cost Of $685.
374.35, of which the state will have paid
one-half and the counties one-half.

BURDEN OF BAD ROADS.
Vast Expense They Annually Place
on the Farmer.

vast Expense Tney Annually flace
on the Farmer.
In a country as large as that In
which we live, with the greater part Of
its producing regions widely separated
from the markets which they serve,
the matter Of transportation is one Of
vast Importance, writes Hon. Martin
Dodge in Forum. This applies particu-
larly to our agricultural products; for,
while great portion both Of our man.
ufactured output and Of our farm
growth must be moved long distances
by rail or water before reaching mar
ket, practically all Of the latter must
also be transported for greater or less
distances over the public highways.
The question Of marketing these agri-
cultural products, amounting in the
United States to $1,0O0,0O0,00 annual
ly, on terms that the dealer can afford
to pay and the grower to accept, often
reduces itself to q question Of cheap
and quick delivery; in other words, to
q question Of economical transporta-
ton. .... ".
AS far as the railways and steamship
lines are concerned, this problem, has
been dealt with very intelligently and
satisfactorily. Skill and money have
been applied without stint to the pro-
vision of enlarged means Of convey
ance, improved ways and increased
power. These influences, under the
stress Of strong competition, have re-
duced long distance freight rates to a
reasonable level. .. ...., ..
There is one phase Of this transporta-
ton problem, however, which has ap-
preached no satisfactory solution. That
is the matter Of wagon road haul. AS
has already been said, while the great
er part Of our farm products travels by
steamship, canal or railway for a por-
ton Of the journey to market, virtually
all of them are conveyed for some dis
tance over the public highways. 1t is
unfortunate that this Is often the most
expensive part Of their journey. 1t has
been shown by mathematical demon
stration that it costs more to move
bushel Of wheat or ton Of hay ten
miles over the average country roads
Of the United States than to transport
the same burden 500 miles by railway
or 1000 miles by steamship. 1t has
happened many times In different parts
Of the country that farmers have let
crops go to waste because the cost Of
hauling them to the nearest market or
railway shipping point over wretched
and i'll kept roads amounted to more
than could be realized for them after
ward; whereas, If good roads on which
heavy loads could be hauled had been
at hand, the same crops could have
been marketed at small profit to the
producer, while the economic gain re-
sulting from their application to useful
purposes would have been very consid-
erable.
