COST OF BAD ROADS.


II is a matter Of tremendous
import that in the United States
bad roads are directly response
BILE for the loss of over a billion
dollars a year. The saving Of
this stupendous sum constitutes
an economic question of vast
importance. According to the
United States Agricultural De-
partment, the average cost to
haul one ton of farm produce
one mile is 23 cents; similar SER
vice on European highways costs
S cents.
The chief business of the ma
iority of the people of the State
Of Florida is to raise cotton with
which to clothe the people of
the earth, and to produce corn,
vegetables, fruit, pork and beef
with which to feed them. Those
having the interest and welfare
of the state at hear. are in favor
