Cost Of Bad Roads.

There are 2,151,57O miles of public
roads in the United States. OF this
mileage, statistics for 1904 showed that
about per cent are improved. Dur
ing the crop year 1866, about 85,0OO,-
600, 600 million pounds of farm products
were hauled over common roads from
farms to shipping points. These fl
cures do not include forest or mine
products or general merchandise that
goes from city to country. It is evi-
dent that the slightest saving in cost of
hauling per ton would assume striking
proportions when considered for the
entire country, says "Better Roads" )"
Figures show that these great crops
travelled in wagons over country roads
208, 432, ga miles, merely in being trans
ported from the farms to shipping
points. Investigations have shown
that the average cost of hauling per ton
per mile is % cents. On stone roads in
good condition the cost is about cents;
on stone roads in ordinary condition, II
cents; on earth roads containing ruts
and mud, 80 cents; on sandy roads
when dry, GA cents. A reduction in
the average cost of hauling from %
cents to l2 cents would mean an annual
average saving of over $3.50, ZOO, 600.
This loss comes direct from the pockets
of the farmers. The railroads take the
wheat, corn and other farm products at
the station and the producer gets the
value Tor market price, of the ship
ment. If the farmers of the nation are
paying 81, ,OOO, 900 day more than they
should in the cost Of getting their pro-
duce to the shipping point, it requires
no expert to show that if they had good
roads they would be receiving $1,000
600 day more for their products than
they are now getting.
Every cent saved in the cost Of trans.
portation is cent added to the price
the farmer receives for his products
The addition of $3.50, 600, 900 a year to
the income of the American farmers
would mean a great strengthening oi
the purchasing power of the agricul
tural classes and a marked increase ir
agricultural assets. In addition to thi:
direct gain the good roads add value
to every acre of farm land in the ma
ton. This gain in income and increase
! in land values would far more thar
cover the cost OF establishing ane
maintaining good roads.

After ViOlatOrS of Game Law.

Deputy Game Warden Chas. Monroe,
OF Lewiston, who spent several days in
Orofino and vicinity this week invest-
eating alleged violations of the game
law, returned to Lewiston yesterday.
On Tuesday evening three hundred
pounds Of venison and six deer hides
were found in the possession of several
squaws passing through town. The
meat and hides were seized and the
Indians taken before Prosecutor Hols-
claw and questioned as to where they
got the venison. They claimed they
had got it of some one in the country
east of town. No complaints have yet
been filed and the Indians were al
lowed to go for the present. Mr.. Mon
roe intends to continue the investga-
ton and endeavor to find out whether
the deer were killed by the Indians or
bought from some party as they claimed.
The deer have been driven down in
great numbers by the deep snow and
are not in good condition. 1t is the in
tention of the department to do all il
can to protect the game and it is the
duty of the citizens to assist in so do
ing.
The meat confiscated by Mr.. Monroe
was turned over to DIR. j. w. Givens te
be used at the asylum.
