WISCONSIN SYSTEM

High Type Highways OF East

State Experts.
Snecial to The Tribune.

Special to Ihe IfIpune' fi{E
Butte. Dec. 10. Experiences
through which Wisconsin has passed
in becoming one of the leaders IN
highway construction in the United
States. will be reviewed for Montana
good roads advocates by Z. A. Can
non. executive secretary of the WIS
consin Good Roads association, who
will be n of the speakers at the
meeting of the state executive roads
committee in Butte Monday and Tues
day. The meeting at which a care
full program of highway construction
and maintenance legislation will be
prepared, will bring together, c1ty,
county and state executives, highway
enthusiasts and experts from all sec
tions of Montana and from points
outside the state. After the Butte
convention, Mr.. Cannon will speak az
public meetings in Livingston, Billings
and Miles City.
Wisconsin Advances
In the last five years Wisconsin
has forged to the front in the road
movement, especially becaute of two
Wisconsin ideas-the standardized
system of road marking and the
splendid results secured from the
patrol maintenance of the state trunk
highway system, according to SID ).
Coffee of Missoula, president OF the
state executive committee. The $40
gan of Wisconsin today IS that It Is
harder to get lost on the roads of
Wy. -or, than II yynS 70 find
them five years ago. he SAID.
The numbered system of road
marking adopted by that state gives
every Indication of becoming national
as six or seven other states have
adopted it. 1t has been selected as
the system that is to be placed on
the highways Of England and also
on the Islands of Hawaii.
The Wisconsin system of patrol
maintenance is another new develop
ment. The state trunk highways in
that states covers 5000 miles and
1000 patro1men are at work every day
during the season keeping that mileage
in condition. The theory years ago
was that after a road had been CON
structed and surfaced that patrol main
tenance should be placed on it. The
Wisconsin idea was that a large per
centage Of the dirt and gravel roads
could be consistently controlled, sup
plemented with gang maintenance and
made adequate for travel under nor
NAL conditions. The idea is that trat-
fic is here and now to be cared for,
and instead of spending a larger
amount on a small mileage of high
type roads the money should be so
spent as TO serve the most traffic and
do the greatest good to the greatest
number.
High Type Roads
Wisconsin is building high type
roads, such as the cement concrete,
and will build 400 miles of this type
this year. She will, however, construct
almost 1000 miles of gravel road and
grade also 1000 miles of dirt road.
Mr.. Cannon has been Il leader III
the movement which secured the leg
~islation that resulted in the develop
ment of this system. State Highwar
Engineer 4 r. IIirst has a national
reputation for the new ideas he has
developed in Wisconsin on road mark
