new ROAD MAP
FOR WISCONSIN

One thousand automobile owners of
Wisconsin and countless motor parties
touring the state, who have been
blind, cropping from one roadside
signboard to another and Fostering
chance wayfarers with questions as
to the best route from somewhere to
somewhere else, may now rise up
from the steering wheel, wipe their
goggles and call the Wisconsin High
way Commission blessed. The long
desired road map of the state is pub
hshed and ready for distribution.
The Commission has for several
months been collecting from county
highway commissioners, garage men,
its own employees, and other sources,
the best obtainable information as to
the principal routes of travel, and it
is believed that the new map embodies
the best information available and will
be of vast assistance to the travelling
public.
The map is a sheet p by % inches,
folded into a neat flexible cover which
fits the pocket. Wide red lines on the
map show the principal highways
forming through routes of inter-coun-
ty and state travel. Solid narrow red
lines indicate the secondary lines of
travel. Dotted narrow red lines indi-
cate secondary lines of travel of doubt
full FEASIBILITY at certain seasons. The
routes outlined are believed to be
the best practicable, and most COM
monty used.
Cities, villages, county lines, lakes,
rivers, and railroads are shown, bu,
no other highways than the three
classes mentioned.
