where nature has provided a
level stretch that is self draining
and does not require much work,
made a man figure a little on the
road to the depot from the
square. With the hauling of
freight to and from, and the wear
and tear on horses and vehicles,
he estimated that the loss in
animals, wagons, etc., and the
pay of drivers in making two
loads whensone would have hauled
all on a good road at, at least 81,
600 per annum, which is 6 per
cent on about $4,000. The cost
to put it in good condition, and
keep it so, would not amount to
one half, possibly one fourth as
much. Other towns and coun-
ties issue bonds to make good
roads and find it a paying invest
ment. Rankin roads and Bran
don streets might be similarly
worked, if no other good solution
is offered to keep us out Of mud
and ruts.
