these fees among the different types
of motor vehicles is as fair and just
as possible Great as has been the
growth of this department. there Is
every prospect that its Importance
and magnitude are likely to increase
constantly for many years TO come.
The state maintains 1,o62l4 miles OF
trunk line highway and 62S.S9 miles

roads" For the year last past the
average amount expended for the re-
pair Of trunk line highways was

that large economies are possible IN
this item. A portion of this amount
was spent for requirements. but aside
from this. the cost of ordinary re-
pairs averaged seven hundred ana
eighty-two dollars per mile. l oelleNe
these costs can be greatly reduced by
a more permanent original construc-
