macadam and asphalt, are wearing
out faster than they can build them
Already the first two miles of as
phalt on the Richmond Pike is shot
full of holes in spite of repeated re-
pair jobs. I have lived Is miles on
the Richmond pike for ten years and
have never had decent road to ride
on. One end wears out before they
get the other end built At present
both ends are worn full of holes and
the middle seems to be waving in
sympathy. SNAP
Now, next important to concrete
roads is Federal aid. The county Of
ficials are certainly not working for
the best interest of the taxpayers if
they do not take Uncle Sam in part
nership and let him put up dollar for
dollar when the taxpayer gets all the
benefit. So the Federal laid should be
used as far as available. 49,
With Federal aid to build concrete
roads and a zoe extra lSad fund, how
can any one truthfully say it is folly
to build concrete. roads. Gentlemen,
it is folly not to build them for if We
will find ourselves. deeper and deeper
in the mire of the roads every year.
They say that labor is high and
material is scarce, therefore use less
material and build cheaper roads. But
that is the one reason, if no other.
that we should use our material and
labor for permanency. What if labor
and material are high? Are not taxes
higher also? I'll say, they are for
1920 then they We're in 1910; and /
know all of us are having the same
experience, SO as long as we pay the
fiddler, why can't we dance?
Now l make this suggestion; take
the 20-cent extra road tax fund which
is about $13O,OO000, use Federal Aid,
build concrete roads. Use the regular
road fund to preserve the macadam
roads already in the county. In this
way each year we will add to our
miles of macadam Expensive to keep
up) will lessen.
Now we don't have to put all the
concrete road on any one pike this
year, but build it where most needed,
on the main roads out of Lexington
and each year add to it. Then when
we do get road completed, we will
have permanent concrete road on the
course, it is to every ones interest to
put some of this concrete road on the
Richmond pike, as it has been ded-
ieated the Dixie Highway, and it
should be the pride of every citizen
of Lexington and Fayette county. to
have the Dixie Highway in Fayette
county the best highway in the
world So let's hear from others on
this subject in the newspapers, the
Peoples Forum.
In the meanwhile, we are organic
/ ing our forces to put some more con-
crete roads down in Fayette county.
Let's all join. The concrete road on
the Winchester pike is the first and
only permanent road built, in Fayette
county and a job to be proud of-so
let's build some more.
| Your truly for concrete roads,

STRONG ARGUMENT
FOR CONCRETE ROADS
Is Made By a Fayette Farmer
Who Lives On Richmond Pike
and Wants 1t Improved

Much interest has been aroused
here over a letter to the Lexington
Herald, written by nj. X. Snyder, re-
garding the pike between Lexington
and Richmond-Mhich all who have
travelled it recently are ready to testi-
fly is probably in worse condition that
it has ever been since its original
construction. Mr.. Snyder, of course,
has particular reference to Fayette
countys part of the roadway. and
methods of road work there, but a
lot he says will fit road conditions in
Madison mighty well. He says in
part:
On December 8, 1919, I read in the
Lexington newspapers an article
about Fayette county roads and re-
port by the Road Engineer.
1 was very much disappointed by
the general information CLEANED from
them. In view of the fact that we
have just voted an extra 20-cent road
tax, which amounted to more than the
general road fund, and this, 2O-cent
tax was voted to build permanent
roads with Federal Aid, had looked
forward to a concrete. road on the
Richmond pike to complete the Dixie
Highway in Faette county.
have ridden over the Dixie High
way from. Detroit, Michigan, to Gin
cinnati, Ohio, and most of this road
is concrete or brick laid in concrete
roads, why not Fayette county, the
highest taxed county in the country
Surely, the farmers and taxpayers OF
Fayette county should get as much
for their money as others do; and
nothing short of a concrete Dixie
Highway should SATISFY us.
1t is a proven waste of money ano
labor to build the kind of roads the
County Engineer advocates building
At best, with continued patching
they will not last five years
l venture to say that the concrete
road just finished on the Winchester
pike will be giving satisfactory serv.
ice twenty-five years from now.
1t may last fifty years-who knows
