Minnesota Road patrol system.

Minnesota's designation of II 900 miles
of arterial roads as the State road system
has already done much to adyan-e the
land values and place the North Star
State" among the first rank as regards
road improvement. In 1914 Minnesota
will spend $a,Soo. 900 for roads aud
bridges, and will inaugurate system of
road patrols for the maintenance of the
State roads Nearly 1900 patrolmen
will be assigned to FIVE and eight.mile
sections of the State highways. and will
be held responsible at all times for the
condition Of the roads. The plat was
originated and adopted at the request Of
State Highway Engineer G. w. Cooley.
Twenty per cent OF the one mill State
road tax snd similar amount Of The
county appropriations for road work
must be used FOR maintenance under
the law passed year ago. This makes
available $500. 900 for the new patrol
system.
