ADVICE FOR NEBRASKA ROADS
Minnesota Expert Tells What is
Needed in This State.
COOLEY TELLS WHAT TO DC
recommends that state Engineer
Of Roads BE Elected and that
Provision he Made for
Funds.


Minnesota's scheme Of road building was
thoroughly, entertainingly and practically
explained to thousands of interested Ne
braskans Thursday at the Land Show. BY
this scheme Minnesota has accomplished
more in the matter of building roads and
bridges than any state in the west and
It was with unusual interest that Land
Show visitors absorbed all tnat was said
by George w. Cooley, who gave the lee
ture. experimenting his remarks with an
excellent series of stereoptic illustrations.
The lecture was of especial interest TO
Nebraskans, for there is a general senti-
ment in this state for a plan OF systematic
road building Mr.. Cooley, who is state
engineer Of Minnesota having full charge
OF the road and bridge building in his
state. said.
The true value OF system of highways
to the state depends upon many conditions,
among which may be cited continuity
thus providing for the requirements OF
transportation over distances greater than
can be economically traversed on inferior
and sometimes nearly impossible roads;
hardness and smoothness of surface, with
easy grades permitting reduction in the
cost OF haul and an administration that
will furnish an economical and judicious
expenditure of the funds used in construc-
ton and maintenance. 1t has been shown
that % per cent Of all products carried by
rail or steamship must first be transported
over the primary roads Of the country
and IL is, therefore 10 these the most i'm
portant Of which al this time are the
common earth roads, that our attention
Is at present directed.
Many Miles of Road,
The records of the pdblic road office
show that We have In the United States
about 2,250oO) miles Of roads, which mileage
may be approximately subdvided as fol-
lows: OF common ordinary earth road, the
result OF continuous travel. but unscientific
and unsystematic methods II maintenance
about 90 per cent; Of fairly improved
roads. T. e.. roads which under our present
system have been turnpiked or graded ac-
cording TO the various methods in vogue
In the different states, about 10 per cent
and OF good roads. In the latter class built
20 a permanent grade line and properly
surfaced with gravel or broken stone. not
far from per cent OF the whole. This
small proportion Of permanent roads EN-
braces only those which under the regula-
tons OF the VARIOUS highway commissions
or under the supervision OF competent
local authority have been SO constructed
as TO do away with the future necessity
OF regarding or OF resurfacing, except so
Tar as may be made necessary by the
ordinary wear and tear OF travel. one
u the greatest mistakes generally made
with the opening up OF a road system in
new country is that induced by the
belief that no engineering skill Is neces-
sary and that any man versed I'm the
hap6ing of tools or road machinery is
thoroughly competent 70 build road.

conditions will continue until the sys-
TEN is so changed as TO require that al
such work be put In charge OF compel mt
road builders. This cannot be done with
out radical change in the laws. As the
law now stands we elect or appoint IN
each town every year from four 10 twenty
or more road overseers none OF whom are
required to be qualified IN that particular
line although many OF them are, but even
those qualified may be removed az the
end OF their term and the work placed
the following year I'm the hands OF others
who may be no improvement on their pre-
decessoTs.

ing new roads, accurate surveys are inn

portance is provided for by a system OF
leveling' and grade lines are established

OF a railroad. No plea OF lack OF funds
or urgent need OF the road for use is
available 10 prevent this preliminary work.
ana no public moneys are put into any
highway until such work Is accomplished
10 the satisfaction Of the county engineer
and his superior officer In grading, no

allowed in entertainments and ample time
Is given for sucn portions OF the work TO

Doctor Stephenson says in an art
icie, "The Lancet" that whenever a
headache, migraine. vertigo, or tic"
is induced or made worse by the use
of the eyes, and ielived by rest, one
may safely say it is due to eye strain.
Slight errors Of resIaction where tho
sight is not impaired much, causes
more distress than the more aggravat-
ed condition. Headache is the com
monest reflex manifestation OF eye.
