BETTER ROADS IMPERATIVE.

Every indication points to "A great
era of road building just ahead of us,
In its present mbersome form, fed
eral aid to road building will do com
paratively little. Red tape makes it
impossible. within reasonable time, to
get any road project approved at
Washington.
There is a movement now before
congress to create a national high
ways commission with power to act
The bill carries with it appropriation
of three hundred million dollars to
be matched by the states and used
where roads are most needed.
The growing use of the motor truck
for local freight transport points to
an impending revolution in the
science of road building. Motorists
who have recently toured through the
eastern states report that the motor
truck transport has almost ruined
some OF the best roads.
These roads had been built for or
binary automobiline and for horse
drawn vehicles. They We're not so
surfaced as to withstaad the wear
and tear of heavy truck trains.
The new uses of the truck will not
pass with the war, though the war
is responsible for much Of the de-
struction of the roads because motor
trucks were used for carrying vast
quantities of freight which ordinarily
would have gone by train. For shart
hauls the truck is bound to grow in
favor, not only with merchants and
manufacturers. but with farmers rs
well.
Charles Springer chairman Of the
state road board, has Il novel idea
regarding the building OF future
roads. The idea is so simple, ana lie
saving in construction and upkeep
would he so great, the wonder is that
1t was rot put into use many years
ago.
Mr. Springer's idea is that instead
of building wide, surfaced roads, it
would cost only about one-fourth, or
one-half as much if, after the road
is graded, four narrow tracks, made
of strong material were put in to
accommodate autos and trucks. Two
tracks on the right side would accom-
modate vehicles going one way while
two other such tracks to the left
would accommodate vehicles going
the other way They might be made
wide enough 50 that horses drawing
wagons would be able to walk on the
hard tracks prepared for the wheels,
Even if these tracks should be
made two feet wide, it would make
only eight feet of such strong con-
struetion work. When any one of
the tracks 20 out of repair it would be
easy and inexpensive TO repair it.
The vehicle wheels would run on
narrow but strongly constructed
tracks There would be no. chance
for high centers or for the clay Of
the main part of the road to be
churned into boys by the hoofs of
horses
Just why the man who invented the
skeleton bridge for automobiles never
thought of Building the same sort Of
road for all sorts of vehicle travel is
hard to understand.

CAUGHT RATHER In
HAND-SHOT HEAD OFF

While on the way from Stuart In

Lieut.. W. Damon Archer had an ex-
perience with rattlesnake which he
will not forget soon.
The reptile was lying across the
road, and when the machine passed
over it got caught in a wheel of the
car and was whirled around. The
officer caught at the object, not real.

discovered that he had hold of the
snake just below its head. Ensign,
who was member of the party in the
automobile, gave first aid to the i'm.

shooting the snakes head off. This
act was not without danger and the
hand was burned by the
powder flash but otherwise he was
uninjured.
