his produce over that five miles to the

Redfeld recently put it, You might
build the railroads up until they are
ten tracks wide, but you do not fully
help the farmer ten miles away to get
his produce to market. And you might
fill the rivers with steamers, and he

motor cars and motor trucks are
partial solution. But they are not

requires good roads as well, over

the nearest shipping point. There
never was a sounder investment in
the world than money expended In
the building of good roads. The

that some of them are used yet.
Certainly one of the surest ways to
