GOOD ROADS AND ECONOMY.

aFfneFS OHtOlu "'''io'S'
There is no difference among well
informed people as to the cost OF bad
roads, nor is there any longer ques-
ton as to where the burden OF the
cost is most Severely felt. There are
hauled over the country roads of the
United States every year 2Go.UoWO
tons of produce, equal to so per cent
of the railway tonnage Of the coun-
try. The average haul from farm to
railway is "a miles, and the cost per
ton per mile is between % and %
cents. In Germany over better ROADS
the cost is 10 cents per ton per mile
at the maximum and cents per ton
per mile at the minimum. The loss
suffered by the American farmer ana
consumer, figured on the basis OF the
German wagon road toll. is immense.
If it were saved from year to year
il would soon constitute fund sum
rient to improve all of the common
highways OF the country.

method was, they thought in conflict

matter through to a successful issue.
