INCREASE IN ROAD BUILDING.

Expenditure on Highways Shows 25l
Per Cent Gain In pseads. -
An enormous increase in the total ex'
penditures for road building and bridge
construction marked the development,
of highway work in the United States
during the past twelve years. Stats
tics compiled by the Office of public
roads show that the expenditures for
this work increased from approximate
~ $sOOOO,OOO year in 1904 to about
$3.50, 100000 in 1915, or more than $50
per cent. State expenditures increased
from $2,5OO,OOO to more than 5000
OOO In addition, more than $4,000! OOO
of local funds were spent under state
supervision in 1915, bringing the total
road and bridge expenditures managed
by the states to $SO,514,699.
The rapid growth in importance OF
state highway departments is shown
by the report. Since 1891. when New
Jersey established the first of these
agencies, every state except Indiana.
South Carolina and Texas now has
some form Of highway department.
The falling Off in value of road work
performed by statute and convict labor
was from IS per cent of the total III
1904 to less than 5Ha per cent of the
total in 1915.

FOR ROADS

Nearly 100000, Square Yards Super.
vissd In, Last Fiscal Year. ;
Nearly 100000 square yards of
roadway, the equivalent of 561.9 miles
OF road fifteen feet wide, were con-
structed under the supervision Of fed
eral road specialists in the last fiscal
year, according to the annual report of
the Office Of public roads and rural en-
cheering of the United States depart
ment OF agriculture. This is more than
double the mileage SO constructed in
previous years. The roads constructed
under supervision Of the Office include
experimental roads, post roads, county
roads and roads In national parks and
forests. The expenditures Of the Office
for this purpose were chiefly for en-
cheering services and supervision, the
communities, except in the case of for
est and park roads, meeting the bulk
of the costs for material and construc.
tion.
A special appropriation was made
for the construction Of the post roads
in the postoffice appropriation bill Of
1912. Eight Of the eleven post road
projects remaining at the beginning of
the last fiscal year were completed by
the end of the year, bringing the mile
age of the completed roads under this
special project to 697.6. Three Of the
original seventeen projects, aggregat
ing 59.17 miles in length, remained un
completed at the end Of the year. The
eight projects completed are in seven
states and traverse fifteen counties.
The demonstration maintenance work
undertaken in 1914 on through route
from Washington to Atlanta was contin
ued during the year, the mileage under
supervision increasing from 724 to S76
The cumulative effect of continuous
maintenance, says the report, has been
demonstrated by the fact that from
March Is to- the end of the fiscal year
June 80. 1916, the road was not closed
to traffic at any point. g c. g.,
In the national parks and national
forests the office supervised construc-
ton of approximately ITO miles OF
road, Of which about seventy miles
were completed One of the roads I'M

der road in the Powell national forest,
Utah-will open up communicate
with a settlement in the valley of the
upper Colorado river which has here
