Contract Road Work
The True Way to
Handle Good Roads

STU I1OH. u. STROUD,
u germantown, the other day, in
conversation with a Saturday News
representative, the question OF good
roads having been preached, "that
the people of South Dakota are max
ing a great mistake in failing to avail
themselves of the contract system for
road work"
The old law provided for super
visor districts and permitted the
working out" of the road tax. While
MIR. Stroup was a member of the
South Dakota legislature, a new law
was proposed which provided fer the
payment Of the road tax in cash, but
permitted the supervisor to employ
promiscuously, as it may be said, any
body whom he might choose to per
form the road work. The result is,
according to the opinion of some, that
the old system is continued under
slight notifications in that a large
body of the road-tax payers are en-
ployed to keep the roads in repair
under the day system-so much a
day,
Mr.. Stroup, by the way, opposed
the present law, predicting at the
time of its passage that it would not
work satisfactorily. But it contains
lone provision which Mr.. Stroup thinks
lis a good feature namely, the privi-
|lege of having all road work done by
contract.
THE trouble with the old system,
whose defects are practically inten-
sified under the new law, if Tom,
Dick and Harry are to be employed
to do the work" continued Mr.. Stroup
was that the bulk of the work was
done between corr seeding and har-
The farmers are too busy at other
seasons of the year, when road work
is feasible, to devote their attention
to repairing the roads, yer though
they may receive fair wages per day.
And besides, road work in June, in
the midst of our rainy season, isn't
as permanent as it should be. There
is ample opportunity for the roads
to become rough and full of ruts be,
fore the ground becomes thoroughly
settled"
Good roads" went on the German
town farmer, "are more important
than we used to consider them. Jim
Hill, for instance, doesn't get along
with the little old engine that used
to ply on his great freight routes. He
has put his roadbed into first-class
condition and he has bought mann
moth engines that haul double the
tonnage that the baby engines of a
generation ago could pull, and he has
thereby reduced the cost of hauling
freight.
- r=EAr@.-
"The same principle applies to our
country roads rel which the farm
ers must haul their grain to market.
We ought to be hauling bigger loads
with our present team power. Take
the road from my place to Water
town, as an illustration, covering a
distance of seventeen miles. There
are but two comparatively short
stretches in the entire distance that
can be called in first-class condition.
These two parts were properly grad
ed and rounded off, and the work was
done right, and they speak for them,
| selves, even this winter.
IF / had my way, ] would let nj
the road work by contract, and I'd
have it done in the season of the year
when it may be done best with the
more lasting results. A good road
expert could do more work for less
money than the novice or the ayerage
man, and u roads would be in bet
Ter condition throughout the yea

This matter of contract work On
the r~oadways is receiving more at
tention than formerly. The coming
of the automobile has fastened agi-
tation regarding seed roads. hut the
farmers generally seem to be coming
around to the idea that the benefits
to be derived from good roads will
not accrue solely to automobile own
ers.

a stupid little book.
