keepina Roads In Order.

Macadam. concrete and other strong
~ surfaced highways for the present
are primarily for the main roads. says
the Laporte Herald The thousands of
side roads. which are little Travelled
will have to get along without expen-
siye pavements for many years.
But even these need not be in bad
shape or impossible, as some of them
are in rainy weather.
The modern cheap machine or grad
er, when used In the spring, is great
thing for roads and the tempers of
those who have to use them.
More than this the road drag can be
used after each rain; the results are
satisfactory wherever used. This. of
course. applies to earth or gravel roads.
A drag keeps them in fine shape
throughout the year.
What ails some of our dirt roads is
not that they are inherently bad. but
that nobody takes care of them. II
they are properly looked after with
drags they won't be the butt Of SO
many jokes.
Thousands of miles Of them are GO
ing to be with us for a great many
years; might as well see that they are
as good as drags can make them.
Even macadam road doesn't
amount to much in few years Ii II
isn't taken care of.

State Control of Local Roads.

The realization has become quite gen
eial that in order to render maximum
service state highway departments
should be given some measure Of con
troll over the construction and main
tenance of local roads. For this class
of roads an amount exceeding $3.50,
100000 Is expended annually, with
comparatively little result to show IN
the form of improved road mileage
for this great outlay. The state of
Iowa has met this situation by placing
all the road work In the state under the
direction OF the state highway depart
ment.
Traffic Is increasing so rapidly as to
cause excessive wear upon the roads,
especially in the vicinity Of congested
centers of population. This results In
heavy annual maintenance cost
averaging in the large eastern states
not less than $3.50 per mile per annum
Many experiments have been made in
the effort to devise types of road which
can be maintained at relatively low
cost. Thus far, aside from the cheaper
forms Of construction. the states are
depending upon the various forms OF

vitrfied brick road.-Year Book. Unit

woMENs ROAD CREED.
Iowa Federation Of Women's Clubs For
Improved Highways.

Iowa Federation Of Wornen's Clubs For
Improved Highways.
| 1t is not left to man alone to cham
pion the cause of good roads, this be-
ing indicated by the interest taken in
he subject at a recent meeting of the
Iowa Federation of Womens clubs.
This federation of women has adopted
good roads creed designed to advance
the cause of improved highways. Fol-
lowing is the complete text of this
creed:
| l believe In good roads.
| believe in systematic road work.
| l believe good roads will make bet
ter schools.
believe good roads will make better
living conditions in the town and in
the country.
| believe the women of Iowa should
enlist in the fight for better roads
while we are here to use them.
believe that the last $50 spent upon
the proper finishing of n road will do
more good than any 500 that preced-
ed 1t.
believe that no road should be built
and allowed to take care Of itself.
There should be system of road pa
troll.
| l believe that the weeds should be
lcut along the roadside and will use
every effort in my power to see that
the proper road officials have this done
If the landowner neglects to do it.
l believe no road work should be
commenced that cannot be finished In
better shape than it was when it was
started.
/ believe i'm building roads, not work
ing them.
believe in roads for women.
| will work for better roads for Iowa.
Too much enthusiasm cannot be work
ed up on the subject Of good roads.
Road improvement is generally advo-
Gated as an economic necessity be-
cause it improves mar keting facilities.
That it is a social necessity is indi-
Gated by the interest taken by this
body of women. 1t will be noted that
the road patrol system is recommend
ed. InlS plan OF road improvement Is
rapidly coming into f hvor. 1t means
the placing of one individual in charge
of given mileage of road, furnishing
him with drag and other road weapons
What we are now spending on roads In
Il hit or miss fashion would pay the
cost of the patrol. and unquestionably
if the new plan We're tried out it would
be step in advance.
These women show their practical in
sight in preparing their creed wheI
they refer to the weed question on the
roadsides. Their instinct for orderli
ness is shown here, and officers shoult
be shrewd enough to pay the fair SCI
the compliment of giving heed to thei
wise suggestions.-Iowa Homestead.
