Bad Roads Cost Texas Eight MlllicnS
Annually.

Texas annually pays an unnecessa-
ry toll of 100000 because Of bad
roads. That was the statement
made the other day by Secretary FL
lison, of the Longview Chamber OF
Commerce. He said that last year
Texas farmers marketed approx
mately 10000 tons of products.
It cost AZ cents the ton the mile to
reach the market in Texas, and the
average distance hauled was only
five miles. The average for the
whole country is only % miles.
"Now let US figure out in dollars
the loss Of the Texas farmer" says
Mr.. Ellison. eff the Texas farmers
raised 8,OOO.OO0 tons of farm pro-
ducts and it cost them 43 cents the
ton the mile to reach the market
and the average distance hauled was
FIVE miles, and if it only costs %
cents the ton the mile on an average
throughout the United States, then
the Texas farmers did lose 20 cents
the ton the mile on 100000 tons of
products on every mile they hauled
their goods"
Thus, the total loss on one mile
must be 81 100000, but the average
haul was five miles, so it must be
five times that amount, which is
$4,000, 900 annually that the Texas
farmer loose on account Of bad
roads.
The total fire losses in Texas last
year amounted to 100000, and
the losses from bad roads amounted
! to twice that sum.
Texas needs good roads badly,
does it not? Yet we in Virginia are
in no position to throw stones when
it comes to bad roads.-From Rich
mond Times-Dispatch.
