BEST WIDTH OF GOOD ROADS
Old Turnpikes, Still Our Best Road.
Ways, Were Not Wlde-Built for
Service and Profit.

One of the best roads 1 have eve
driven over was just wide enough for
two vehicles to pass without scraping
the paint off each others hubs. | am
not sure that sometimes the hubs did
not touch. But it was a road that
was always in good condition and the
men who kept it up seemed to do SO
with comparative ease, writes w. q.
Rose of Iowa in Farm Progress.
Some Of the old turnpikes, still our
best roadways, were not a rod in
width. When these roads were built
they were built for both service and
profit, and in figuring the future prof
its the builders saw that the wider the
roadway and the wheel track the more
maintenance cost and, therefore, the
less profits.
1t is a pity that the men who laid
out the first 60-foot and 66-foot high
ways hadn't taken a leaf from the
book Of the turnpike builders. If they
had we would not have millions Of
acres Of land lying worse than idle
along our public highway right Of ways.
Say that the road runs 20 miles from
county seat to county seat. Along its
length there will be anywhere from 80
to 100 acres Of land growing up in
weeds, road grass, brush and thickets
where it is not being washed into deep
roadside gullies. Why, in some states
there is a full half million acres of
land that is being wasted in just
that way and land in these states is
selling anywhere from $50 to $500
an acre!
Many of the best and most famous
roads of Europe are but 16B feet in
width and they handle some of the
very heaviest highway traffic. Right
now in those counties and townships
in this country where hard roads, per.
manent highways, are being construct
ed, few of them are being built more
than IS feet wide and a good many
Of them r even narrower.
The railroads, wasteful as they are
in some things, r beginning to real
ize the waste of a useless right of way.

CHAPTER XIV.
Gates Of Brass.

It was an hour beyond the normal
quitting time on the day Of ultimatums
and counter.threatenings, the small Of.
flee force had gone home. and the
night squad of deputies had come to
relieve the day guard. Griswold closed
the spare desk in the managers room
and twirled his chair to face Raymer.
1--WE may as well go and get some
thing to eat" he suggested. There
will be nothing doing tonight"
Raymer began to put his desk In or.
der.
mo, not tonight. The trouble will
begin when we try to start up with a
new force. Call 1t a weakness II you
like, but l dread it, Kenneth"
Griswold's smile was a mere bar.
ing of the teeth. That's all right. Ned;
you do the dreading and III do the
fighting" he said; adding: What
we've had today has merely whetted
my appetite"
The man of peace shook his head
dejectedly.
81 can't understand It," he protested.
up to last night ! was calling you a
benevolent socialist, and my only fear
was that you might some time want
to r%eorganize things and turn the plant
into a little section of Utopia. Now you
are out.heroding Herod on the other
side"
Griswold got up and crushed his soft
hat upon his head.
"Only fools and dead folk are denied
the privilege of changing their minds"
he returned. Let's go up to the Win
nebago and feed"
The dinner to which they sat down
a little later was a small feast Of ST.
lence. Though he had not betrayed it,
Griswold was fiercely impatient to get
away to Margery.
Twice, on his way to her after leav-
ing Raymer, he fancied he was fol.
lowed, and twice he stepped behind
the nearest shade-tree and frightened
his grip upon the thing in his right
hand pocket. But both times the ear
ward sidewalk showed itself empty.
Since false alarms may have. for the
moment, all the shock Of the real, he
found that his hands were trembling
when he came to unlatch the Grierson
gate, and it made him vindictively
self-scornful. Also, 1t gave him a
momentary glimpse into another and
hitherto unmeasured depth in the val
ley of standings. In the passing Of
the glimpse he was made to realize
that 1t is the coward who kills; and
kills because he, is a coward.

Jasper Grierson started from his

smoky space. "Madge--you little
devil!" he gritted.
But the ~grasping hands closed upon
nothing and the sound of the closing
door was his only answer.
When she had unhitched the little

A road running through Illinois has
its trackage fringed with alfalfa.
Some farmers have resented the waste
and are beginning to cultivate the land
out to the wheel tracks. This may
u a little trouble at times, but aft
er all is it not a great deal better
than letting the roadsides grow up in
ironweeds, sumacs, briars and thick
cts?
Any of our road vehicles needs no
more than a six-foot clearance. Fig
ure out for yourself how many farm
wagons could drive abreast on a &C.
foot highway and then try to imag-
Inc any necessity for any such ar
rangement. On a highway one rod
in width there is room for two We
hicles to pass with about four and
one-half feet to spare. Why have
the roads, then, &C feet wide?
Some of these days our roads will
be narrowed. We have not really felt
the pinch of a real land need as yet.
When we do, then there will be a
sudden narrowing of these wide
stretches that are now weed incuba-
tors and seeders. In the meanwhile
why not make some use of the soil
Hawking the public highways? Why
not seed it in grass and NOW It as you
would a meadow? OF course the land
belongs to the state, to the public, but
1t Is worse than useless. Why not
make 1t give some return to some
one?

take a little commission from me?"
Maybe not. What Is it," He was
looking for a trap. and would not COM
NIT himself too broadly.
There are two things that ] wish to

heard about the accident on the lake?
Mr.. Galbraith is at our house, and he
is very ill-out of his head most Of the
time. He Is continually trying to tell
someone whom he calls MacFarland'

Again Broffin thought quickly. II he

said bluntly. Am I doin' business
