WHY NOT TRUST THE DEMOCRATS

bryan in the Commonerl
Is it expecting too much of the Presi-
dent to expect him to trust the democrats
in congress to share with him the re-
sponsibility of deciding for what amount
Of preparedness the party shall stand?
This having been declared by the Pres'
dent to be the paramount issue, is it fair
to ignore the democratic majority in both
houses and ask republicans to help him
force his views upon his own party?
What reason has he to question the pa
triotsm of democratic senators and re-
presentatives? Were they not elected
by the same voters that elected him?
And have they not stood by him in car
rying out the pledges of his platform

maAe from which he is so sure to re-
ceive generous dividends as from good
roads.
A reduction in the cost of hauling
is one Of the most immediate benefits
of a good road. A striking instance
Of this is shown by investigations
conducted in Virginia where the av-
erage distance from the farm to the
market is 1910 miles, and the aver
age load for the staple crops is about
one ton. Assuming that the wages of
a two-horse team and driver are $500
per day, it costs the farmer in Vir-
ginia an average of 26 cents per ton
mile to market his crops. If the roads
were graded and improved with sur
facing suitable for the particular road
and region, the load could be m
creased at least so per cent and the
round trip made in the same or less
time without any additional hardship
on the team. This would represent
clear saving of $3.50 per day to each
farmer in the state for every day in
the year in which he was engaged in
hauling to or from the market.
The increase in land values is an
other benefit that is noticeable wher.
ever road improvement takes place.

country, 1T is 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-
tons make 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 album
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
fications and training.
With good roads, some Of the adj
vantages of the city can be brought
to the country. Social gatherings be-
come more frequent, and improved
social conditions exert decided of.

life in rural community-loneliness
and isolation.

This is due partly to the decreased
cost of hauling and partly to the fact
that good road makes the farm a
more desirable place to live.
Moreover, improved roads have a
market effect on both the amount and
character of 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 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 of distance. But
here again the public roads play no
small part, affecting not only possible
extensions of the system, but also the
cost of it's 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
at schools in given sections of the

It is estimated that the people of
this country annually waste $250,000,-
600 because of bad roads. Investiga.
lions 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 ga miles, the average
distance from farm to shipping point,
than it ordinarily costs to ship it
from New York to Liverpool In
France, England and Germany, consul
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 13
cents per ton mile, they would save
about S250,000,00O which now repre-.
sents their mud tax"
The benefits of good roads are nu-
merous and far-reaching. 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
an efficient rural delivery and parcel
post. They have a profound effect on
our country schools and the home life
on the farm There are indeed few
investments which the farmer can
