Graphs Divide Dollars.
Graphs showing from where the
average good roads dollar came and
how it was used are another feature
of the review. One graph shows
that the average roads dollar is
made up of SO cents of road and
bridge tax funds, used on local
roads, and IT cents of motor vehicle
taxes, 8 cents of federal aid and
II cents of county reimbursement
bond money-the three trunk fund
sources of revenue. Another pic
lures how SO cents of the average
trunk dollar went for new construc-
ton , 80 cents for maintenance,
about 6A cents for equipment and
less than Ia cents for general adj
ministration expense.
Trunk system construction fig
ures, compiled by o. L. Kipp, chief
construction engineer, total $780,
342,594.28 of expenditures and
many accomplishment items run in
to the millions. Construction out

$50 cubic yards of dirt and gravel.

ing an average city block 800 feet
square with perpendicular walls,
the yardage would tower nearly g.
700 feet or more than half a mile
high, Mr.. Kipp added, by way of
giving an idea of the tremendous
volume handled. Paving built on
trunk routes in 1921 would cover
81 city blocks, each 800 feet square,
or surface a 66-foot city street
more than 100 blocks.
Main Work Permanent.
Of the average dollar used for
new construction on trunk routes,
Mr.. Kipp's report discloses, 40
cents went into permanent grades
to make lasting foundations for
fic may demand, II cents into
gravel surfacing and 26h
highway surfacing that future traf-
cents into paving and the remain
ing 1919 cents for many miscel-
laneous items. The paving item
carries an explanation that about
IL per cent of the trunk highway
construction fund was used for paw
ing and that the 1921 paving mile
age was abnormally high due to
the paving added by counties with
reimbursement bond money.
Average mile costs of grading
and gravelling run higher on state
than on country work, and this is
due, Mr.. Kipp said, to the fact that
trunk routes carry four times as
much traffic as the county roads
and must be of heavier construc-
ton. That the state department
secured the lowest figures on 1921
work is shown, however, by paving
contracts averaging $1,000 a mile
below the prices paid by counties.
Another ~tabulation shows trunk
highway grading averaging S.
39127 a mile; gravel surfacing at

TWO HARBORS
WINS LIVELY GAME
PORT CITY BOYS TOO HEAVY
FOR LOCAL TEAM.-GOOD

The Athletic Club basketball team
went up against the buzz-saw at
Tyo Harbors Saturday evening and
while they came out of the game
better than at the previous en-
counter and better than did many
of the adversaries of the Two Har-
bors boys this season, they returned
Sunday with the statement that the
Port City boys were too strong for
them. The Athletic boys put up
an excellent game and fast from
the start but could not prevent
their opposition from scoring bias
kets, mostly on long shots. The x
cellent luck on the long shots and
the fact that. it was their home
floor, coupled with the fact that
the port boys were in the best trim
for the season, made the game easy
for Two Harbors. No fouls were
called on Ely and Two Harbors
only had three called on them.

BABCoCk REVIEWS PROGRESS.
Department Engineers Submit 1921 Reports

Minnesota good roads work dur
ing 1921 spread lasting benefits on
1898 miles of main highways and
patrol and maintenance service on
$685. miles of the 1000 mile sys-
tenn of state trunk highways-aI
exclusive of betterments on the
secondary or so-called farmer roads.
Paving built last year measured
100 miles, compared with liz lald
in previous years combined; and
765 miles of grading and 497 miles
of gravel-surfacing were added to
the respective 1,499 and 1871 mile
total listed as graded and gravelled
when the state took owe the trunk
routes for improvement and per-
petual unkeep. In addition, state
maintenance forces re-shaped 1887
miles and re-surfaced SS5 miles on
the trunk system.
The Minnesota Highway Depart
ment last year planned and super
vised projects representing an out
lay of 1921 3S.60, of which
amount SIP, $50, 821.79 was used on
the state trunk highways.
Totals Held Significant.
The foregoing are outstanding
features of the 1921 highway re-
view made public today by Charles
NJ. Babcock state highway commits
sioner. The record mileages sum-
marize Minnesota's banner year of
good roads achievements.
John H. Mullen, deputy commits
sioner and chief highway engineer,
said that the figures r especially
significant inasmuch as the Babcock
Plan was in actual operation only
eight months of the year, having
been put into effect on April %.
Although the funds may be smaller
this year, he added, the department
with a more perfected working or
%ganization will strive to equal and
even excel the initial year showing.
Mr.. Mullen referred to Commissions
er Babcock's intimation that only
another year of progress up to the
schedule will afford the public a
fair basis for estimating results TO
be derived from Minnesota's new
highway development plan.
Local Roads Get Most.
The 1921 state trunk highway
fund of $12,556,S 2179 represented
S5,6I6, ff3.66 of motor vehicle tax
revenue, S2,S40,O 900 of federal high
way aid and S4,10O,70S.19 of pro-
ceeds from country reimbursement
bond sales.
The remaining $6,764,416.01 used
under the direction of the state
highway department was part of the
fund of $21, O99. 1922 provided last
year for local roads-other than
trunk highways. The large sum
for county-town road work was
made up, according to the state
auditors abstract, of S10,S43,682
of county, S6,862.60 of township
and S1,3GS, 794 of small city and
village road and bridge funds and
of $2,0S4,2S7 of state aid. With
more than twice as much money

for trunk route b~etterments, Com
