The RELATION OF GOOD
ROADS TO FARMERS.

Whe following article was written
by E. 0. Luther, chief clerk Of the
State Department of Agriculture,
and issued to the press by Captain
L, Il. Peck, commissioner:
70 curb the trend of population
toward the cities and to divert it to
the farm is wise procedure, but
to put the people on the farms and
keep them there permanently, they
mast be able to support life with
gust as much safety, certainty and
ease as in the city.
The fact that our farms are titled
byless than one-third of the popu-
lation is q striking comment on our
present methods Of government
and indicates our lack of civiliza-
ton.
If the people of Tennessee will
seriously devote themselves to the
building of economical and dura-
BILE highways they will inaugurate
period of prosperity, the like OF
which the State has never seen.
Bad roads keep down land values
and smother progress, they make
rural schools failures and farm life
drudgery. They destroy local
pride and made county and indi-
vidual pride an impossiblity.
1t has been estimated that three
hundred million dollars has been
annually lost to farmers in hauling
their products over our bad coun-
try roads in the United States.
In twenty-five selected counties
of twelve States, where forty per
cent of the roads were improved,
there was an increase of popula-
tion in the last federal census of
10000 inhabitants per county. In
twenty-five selected counties of the
same State, where but one per cent
of the roads were improved, each
county according to our last CEN
sus had it's population diminished
by 5000 inhabitants per county.
The above is plain evidence that
better roads make country life less
irksome and much more desirable
than where the roads are neglected.
Where the rural population is
isolated, where travel is impeded
where social intercourse is restrict
ed, where'church going and school
attendance is interfered with where
illiteracy is promoted, progress is
always hindered. ~
One of the chief beneficial re-
suits from good roads is that the
farmer, fruit grower, trucker, and
Others will be able to economize
time and force in the transporta-
ton Of products between country
and market.
The distance farmer lives from
market is not a question of miles,
but of the roads he must travel
over to reach that point. How
many hours and how many horses
does it require to haul a load to
market.
10 illustrate, two men were dis
cussing the respective merits of
their,farms, one said, "My farm is
only three miles from market while
YOURS is six" "Yes," said the 9th
or farmer, "but my six miles are
over a we'll graded and macadam-
lied road, over which my two
horses can easily haul two tons,
while your road is hilly and rough,
and you would not think of putting
more than three-fourths Of ton
on your wagon" Farmers are re-
alizing more and more that the dis
tanee they live from market is
in time and not in miles.

than its source. Far up on the
