1t is estimated that the people of
this country annually waste $250,000,-
600 because of bad roads. Investiga-
tons have shown that the average
cost of hauling on roads in the United
States is % cents per ton per mile.
1t costs the farmer more to haul a
bushel Of wheat 9.4 miles, the average
distance from farm to shipping point,
than it ordinarily costs to ship 1t
from New York to Liverpool. In
France, England and Germany, copsu-
lar reports show instances where the
cost of hauling agricultural products
Is as low as 10 cents per ton per
mile. If the farmers Of this country
could reduce the cost of hauling to IS
cents per ton mile, they would save
about $25O,O00,000 which now repre-.
sents their mud tax"
The benefits of good roads are nu-
merous and far-reachine. They are a
powerful factor in promoting better
farm conditions throughout the coun-
try. They make the farmer more in
dependent OF seasonal and weather
conditions and permit him to take bet
ter advantage Of favorable market and
prices. They increase the value of his
farm and SO enhance his material
wealth. They promote better agricul-
tural Methods and are necessary for
ar efficient rural delivery and parcel
post. They have a profound effect on
cur country schools and the home life
on the farm. There are indeed few
investments which the farmer can

This is due partly to the decreased
cost Of hauling and partly to the fact
that good road makes the farm
more desirable place to live.
Moreover, improved roads have a
market effect on both the amount and
character CT production. For exam
pie, around the typical small town,
when the roads are not improved,
truck gardening, dairying and other
forms Of intensive farming are con-
fined to a small zone, Immediately
surrounding the town, which is usu.
ally scarcely sufficient to supply the
local demand. Without good roads
the production of perishable goods at
any considerable distance from mar
ket or shipping point is too hazard
GUS an undertaking to be profitable
With good roads the produce can be
brought to market with regularity and
in prime condition, two essentials in
successful marketing
The parcel post makes possible di.
rect marketing between producer and
consumer regardless IF distance. But
here again the public roads play no
snail part, affecting not only possible
extensions of the system, but also the
cost of its operation.
The condition of our rural schools
is closely connected with the condi-
ton of the public roads. While it is
true that various factors contribute
to increase or decrease the attendance

country, it is a well-known fact that
in our rural schools the attendance
almost invariably shows marked de-
crease during the periods when the
roads are bad. Another point worthy
of consideration is that the one-room
school is being supplanted by larger
consolidated schools throughout those
portions of the country where condi-
tians mako it practicable to convey
children to school at the public ex-
pense. Roads passable at all times
are most necessary for successful
school consolidation. There is abun.
dant evidence to prove that any ex-
tensive road improvement is followed
by better schools and better school
attendance. In some of these schools.
advanced courses have been intro
duced. and it has been possible to
employ teachers having special quail
tications and training.
