Improvement of Highways Is Not

BY HOWARD n. GROSS.

There Is one very important factor
that people are apt 10 overlook. and
that is. the influence OF good roads on
the value of farm property. There is
no fact that IS better established or
of which there is more abundant proof
than that a good hard road leading
from the farm 10 the market will in
crease the selling value OF the farm far
more than the amount of taxes re-
Quired to be paid by the farmer To
build the road. Hence when the mat
ter Is analyzsd. IL will be found that
the building of good roads is not ii
matter Of expense. but an investment

called for the expenditure OF money TO
meet the bills that II lightened their
burdens in many other ways, that IL
made life better worth living, that
there was more social life in the
community. the children were better
satisfied to stay upon the farm. and
they could g. to market any day in the
year they liked. and thus take advan-
tage of the market instead OF the mar

Ii is within the experience OF mil
liens Of farmers that they had grain or
live stock on hand ready TO sell; the
price was right. but the roads We're SO
