GET DIVIDENDS
FROM GOOD ROADS
AS DEMONSTRATED

Washington, D. c., Feb. 49,
American motorists cash in a yearly
dividend of 10 per cent on the cap
ital invested through Federal Aid in
the improved highways of the coun-
try, according to statement issued
from the National Headquarters of
the American Automobile Associa-
ton.
This dividend actually goes into
the pockets of the motorists and rep
resents the difference between the
cost of motor vehicle operation over
unimproved and improved highways.
The differential, which is conserva-
tive, is based on extensive engineer
ing tests of motor vehicle operation
costs made in different types of
roads.
A recent survey made in Ken
lucky shows that there is on the
average a saving of two and a half
cents q mile in the cost of opera
tlon over improved roads and high
ways. Some time ago a similar in
Vestigatfon conducted in Iowa indi
Gated approximately the same saw
ing.
1t has been estimated many times
that the average car runs approx
mately ooOO miles a year. A saving
OF two and a half cents a mile for
Uooo miles amounts to $3.50 a year,

this would mean a saving of s.. 500.

definite relation existing between the
gasoline consumption per unit OF
traffic and other items of cost in We
hicle operation. F. r. White, chief
engineer of the Iowa Highway COM
mission, estimated that through i'm
provement of a road surface the
gasoline consumption is cut In two,
the cost of tires is cut in two, the
same applying to other items, in
GLIDING depreciation and repairs.
For the first time these studies
make 1t possible to present in terms
OF dollars and cents the difference in
cost to the motorist and the public
In general between improved and I'M
improved roads.
F According to the Iowa study, traf-
fic equalltng 500 vehicles per day
over earth roads requires an annual
expenditure from both private and
public funds of $4,000 per mile
while a similar amount of transp1r-
tation over concrete surface costs
$20,650 per mile.
This means that for. a light traf-
fic earth road carrying 500 vehicles a
day there would be saved $4950 per
mile. per year, If the same traffic
went over paved road surface. AS

gusta, will have the opportunity of
hearing J. III. Larimore, general pub
licity agent for the world renowned
Pussyfoot johnson, of world prohi-
bition fame. Mr.. Iarimore comes
prepared to give the people of Ken

formation about itself but also a
we'll informed view of conditions as
related to the Volstead law all over
the country and the world.
Mr.. Larimore was honored by his
fellow citizens of Westerville, O., in
their electing him as their mayor. He
Is by profession a newspaper man
and for IA years has been connected
with the World Anti-Saloon League
in an editorial capacity and as d.
rector of publicity, and is said to be
a splendid platform speaker. From
this IT can very well be seen that
the good people of our city interested
IN the progress of prohibition will
md in Mr.. Larimore an authority
on the subject.
Mr.. Garland. the pastor, SAYS that
SO many folk have been led to think
anu nan ne1eVe that this law is al
together ineffective if not quite a
failure that it Is q matter of con-
graduation that man so long re-
!ated to the cause can give us first
hand information as to the actual
results. 1t may indeed be true, he
says, that for a price, some thirsts
may be dampened, but in no sense
can it be said that the law has failed

product of enforcement. If indeed
the booze business is so prosperous,
why all this cussing of the Volstead

The changes made by the state

the recommendations of the Park
County Rod and Gun club, and 1t
is hoped they will prove beneficial
to the protection of big game. Care
full study by the best authorities
on wild life has proven that the
game may be protected to its own
destruction. Should Wyoming pro-
tect its game to the extent that the
winter range and facilities for
caring for it during a hard winter
prove in adequate, the state loses
not only the surplus, but will suf-
fer inroads upon the number which
could have been cared for had the
herd been reduced to the proper
size. The game preserves as are
now created by the game depart
ment, and with such changes as
may seem essential from year to
year, should make Wyoming the
greatest big game section in the
world for many years to come.
