AsoUT HIGHWAY CONDITIONS

A South Dakota man has made an
extended tour Of the east and has
some pertinent things to say about
roads. The following interview pub
lished in one of the state dailies, gives
his conclusions on the matter:
During a trip of over 5000 miles
through eastern states l found peo-
pie demanding the best type of paved
roads that would sustain the heavy
traffic that is daily growing to enor-
nous proportions" declared H. c. Jew
EFT of Jewett Brothers & Jewett, Alb
erdeen, in discussing the subject at
the permanent highways campaign
headquarters. The people have be-
gun to look upon the building of paved
roads as an investment just the same
as any other business proposition.
During my trip ! mOtored through the
New England states, New York, Penn
~sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wis
cOnsin and Minnesota and everywhere
l found the same sentiment prevail
ing. In many places they are tearing
up the gravel and dirt roads and re-
placing them with the best type Of
paved roads. In some states they are
putting in brick paving, in a very
large proportion of the country they
are building concrete, and in some
places they are using bitulithic and
Tarv.a. In New York state where they
have had concrete construction for
several years l found the roads to
be excellent. Upon inquiry / found
that the maintenance cost was merely
nominal. ] motored over the national
Indianapolis, anu found several differ
ent types of paving, but all of them
were hard surfaced roads and were
sustaining an immens, traffic without
injury. In Wisconsin where they have
had macadam roads for a number OF
years they are o engaged in a cam
paign to replace the old form of cor
struction with more up-to-date hard
surfaced roads because the macadam
has proved to be very unsatisfactory.
While l "a in Sparta, Wis, a county
of about one-third that of Minnehaha
county, they we're in the midst of a
So, 000, 900 bond issue campaign which
they expect to carry by about 3 to l."
3 to l."
Referring to Minnesota roads, Mr..
Jewett says he found them in fairly
good condition, but that the people
considered them as being only a tenn
porary expedient until a bond Issue
for $110, 900 900 could be voted in or.
der to replace the graveled surface
with paved roads.
IF the people of Minnehaha county
failed to authorize the $1,000, 600 bond
issue at the coming special election in
my opinion" said Mr.. Jewett, they
will make a very serious mistake as
it will open up the country to greater
development than ever before. Any
business man, farmer, or working man
who has once had an opportunity of
living in a country where there are
hard surfaced roads will never want
to return to a country having the old
dirt or gravel system"

Libby, one of the faculty of the
University of North Dakota, who is
also secretary of the State Historical
Society. The society is about to issue
Volumne VI of the Record of North
Dakota's Historical society, the pub
lication of which has been deferred
some months owing to war conditions
In the letter Prof. Libby says:
"We are still collecting material
for the history of Cavalier county.
Mrs. John Mahon, chairman of the
committee in charge of the work has
collected large amount of excellent
material. The proposed park for
your county, at O'Brien's Coulee,
will preserve the site of an early
battlefield and at the same time will
be an excellent community center for
public occasions. John Beaucbamp,
of Olga has made the initial donation
of land for park purposes and with
out doubt the county will increase his
gift by purchasing later.''
