Tor maintenance. Bad roads are cost
- ali the time. 1t is simply a ques-
tion OF building the macadam roads
out OF the money that bad roads cost.
The moment we all thoroughly realize
this proposition the money will be
forthcoming. But, meantime, if We
are asked to give five or tie ndollars
a year to pay for macadam roads =
that is real money, we see it go out of
our possession. The loss, however,
of five or ten or fifty dollars in racked
buggies or wagons, breaks, the wear
ing III of horses or mules in five
years by the tax of bad roads that
ought to be vigorous and serviceable
could be used to create a hundred
dollars value and the many other
losses that poor roads cause, do not
appeal to all of us-we just do not
see that it is real money we are
losing, actually giving out OF our
hands the same as if We paid it to
the tax collector. When we all see
the fact as a fact, then macadam
roads will not be a dream, but a
positive reality, and Lafayette Parish
will in every part of it be a home and
place of residence that has no superior
anywhere.
