INCREASE OF CONVICT LABOR
Different System of Using Convicts In
Thirty States.

Different System of Using convicts In
Thirty States.
Thirty states at the beginning, of the
present year had Oh their statute books
laws providing for the employment of
state prisoners in road building. Ari-
IONA, Arkansas, Idaho, Louisiana,
Maryland. Montana, Nevada, New Jer-
sey, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Vir-
ginia and Washington follow practical
" the same system, providing that the
control of this work shall be vested in
the state highway commission. The
highway commission or state engineer
makes requisition to the state prison
authorities for such number OF pris-
Oners as he can use effectively. and tie
prison authorities turn over to him
such prisoners as are suitable for the
road work.
The prison commission or board of
control Of state institutions is held re-
sponsible for the development of the
convict road work in some nine states
Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Michigan, Missouri, North Dakota.
Oklahoma and Wisconsin. State pris-
oners are turned over to the county
authorities to be worked on the county
roads in Florida, Georgia, North Caro-
lima and South Carolina. This system
is not approved by the national COM
mittee on prisons and prison labor.
which holds that the state under no
circumstances is justified in delegating
the responsibility for it's convict wards
to county authorities.
The system in New York state di-
1vides the responsibility for the con.
structiOn work and maintenance of the
camps between the state highway de.
partment and the commissioners of the
counties IN which the roads are to be
built, with the state superintendent of
prisons in final authority. In Utah.
West Virginia and Wyoming the high
way department and the prison depart
ment cooperate in the control of this
work. The prison department is fully
responsible for the care and discipline
Of the prisoners, while the road depart
ment is called upon to do the work
which it is equipped to do, the build
ing Of roads.
The committee has found this latter
system essential to the successful de-
velopment Of convict road work. The
prison department is in position to
care for the prisoners and to handle
such matters as food. clothing. hous-
ing. medical attention. the affording
of educa tional facilities and recreation

RouTs AND LAND VALUES.

The building Of great deal Of
. we'll paved roads In Manatee
. county, Fla, has shown how
. good roads affect land values.
. From 1911 to 1912 land along
. these roads increased on the
; average $40 an acre, while lands
mile from the road increased
; only $40 an acre.
Dinwiddie county, Va. is an :.
other instructive case. The build
, ing of 125 miles Of fine roads
caused land adjacent to the
roads to increase in value from
$2425 to $50 an acre, while
lands ten miles away increased
an average of $16.32 an acre.
The state builds the road. and
the landowner sells it if he sells
the land. That would look queer
to a man from another planet.
The man miles away is taxed to
build roads, and the people along
the pike get the selling value of
them. Rather queer, too. when
one thinks Of it for a few min
utes.
The figures are a powerful argu-
ment for good roads and also for
a better way Of apportioning the
burdens and benefits.-Farma and

DIXIE HIGHWAY MOVEMENT.

Influence Bids Fair to Bring About Bet
ter Conditions In the South.
The influence of the Dixie highway
movement continues to spread until
now it bids fair to bring about a mark
ed improvement in road conditions all
over the south. Four new highways
tributary to the Chicago Miami road
already are under consideration.
Immediately after the Dixie highway
plan was established as certainty a
movement was set on foot for south
ern highway. from Chattanooga to
New Orleans. Since then three more
roads have been proposed.
A highway which is looked upon as
being already as good as built is from
Miami westward across the state of
Florida to the gulf coast. A bond issue
of $1,O00OO0 soon will be voted, to in.
clude the cost of the part Of the Dixie
highway near. Miami
A second highway is proposed to run
from Miami to Cape Sable, Fla, the
southernmost point of the Atlantic sea-
board. Bonds already have been voted.
This will carry the Dixie highway from
the great lakes to the gulf of Mexico
In North Carolina there has been q
levival of plan made several years
ago and partially executed to build a
road practically across the state OF
North Carolina and into Tennessee.
Since the Dixie highway idea has come
into being the general. assembly of
North Carolina has memorialized the
general assembly of Tennessee upon
this plan, and the Tennessee legisla-
ture has answered that it is ready to
cooperate at any time.
In addition the Dixie highway will
cause the construction Of many more
miles Of good road, because half a
dozen or more contesting sections will
put their roads In the best possible
condition as an inducement for obtain.
ing the route Of the highway. Sections
adjacent to the contesting territories
are offering to build small tributaries
II the Dixie highway win come withir
!! 20 or 100 miles Of them.

estimates. These reports show that
the longer hauls to market generally
are in cotton states or in the Rocky
mountain region. The smaller loads
also are in the cotton states. The aver
age size Of a wagon load Of cotton is
three bales, or 1900 pounds, while the
average wagon load of wheat is $50
bushels, or 5000 pounds
However, while the size of the cotton
load is much smaller than that of the
corn load, the value of the former is
greater. The average value of load
Of cotton, based on farm prices Dec.
1, 1913, was $1S3; wheat, $43; corn,
$2S
The bulletin states that wagon hauls
are much shorter this year than 1906,
when the last similar inquiry was
made.
Railroad building" it is stated,
during the past nine years has
brought some farms nearer to shipping
points and markets and has helped to
shorten the average distance hauled
and to increase the average number of
trips per day.
During the seven years following
1906 more than $4,000 miles of new
railroad were built, and several thou
sand more miles have been added since
1913, so that there are at least Is per
cent more miles Of steam railroads in
the United States now than in 1906
''1n addition to this new mileage Of
steam railroads the hauls of some
farmers have no doubt been shortened
by new freight carrying electric rail-
roads,
The figures indicate considerable
rise in the average cost per day to the
farmer In hauling his products. How
ever, this higher cost per day is offset
partly or wholly by the larger quaint
ties hauled per day in 1915 compared
with 1906.
