A GOOD ROADS EDUCATION
FOR NATIONS CHILDREN.


Along with educating cur
young people to get the most out
of farming, good roads are the
most important things to deveI-
op in this country. There is
only one way to get them, and
that is to tax ourselves for them.
Build good bridges. The stone
and concrete bridges are the only
ones that are really economical
to build. Iron and wooden
bridges are too short lived.
When things get adjusted the
motorcar will take an important
place in the work h nation.
