width Of Roads.

Compared with Y the highway .
abroad, and particularly those In
Germany, the public roads of the
United States, are much wider. This
is q phase OF road making IN this
country which has not received the
attention 1t should. The generally
bad condition ot the roads In the
United States Ia attributed In large
part TO this extreme width, the cost
of maintaining q roadway sixty to
seventy feet in width, being nearly
double that OF q thirty-five foot road.
In Prussia the average width OF the
roads is thirty feet, and this has been
found to be ample for all purposes.
Some figures showing the loss due to
the wider roads are startling. Wis
eonsin and Michigan have each $4,000
miles of roads; Iowa, Kansas, and
Indiana 10, 600 each; Nebraska, 90, 600 /;
Ohio, Michigan, Illinois aud Missouri
so, 600 each, or total of 100, 00O. Re-
ducing the width of these hihgways,
which now average sixty six feet. to
thirty-six feet. leaving them still
much wider than the roads of Prussia,
would give back to the farmers OF
those states 2, 500, 600 acres, generally
tillahle land, which at an average OF
Sl00 an acre would mean the restora-
tion to the producing value ot the
states named of $3.50, 600, 900. Ibif
huge sum has an annunl interest
value of 81. 500, 900, an amount which
might be recovered, and it applied to
proper scientific construction of roads
in the United States would 10 a few
years give us the finest and most ex'
tensive road system In the world.
