hear y complaint
about the bad condition of the
just at this time. The
farmers and traveling public
never realize full extent of
loss sustained to vehicles
and teams by this bad condition
of affairs. The time lost also is
enormous. Suppose a farmer
lives five miles from market, he
can make probably three loads
of fertilizer per day, carrying
1800 lbs at a load. If he should
have a good road, be could carry
lbs, thus gaining nearly a
load in a day. The good road
would also benefit him in the
same way during the
season. Labor, teams and
are very thus it
would be to the interest of every-
one to invest more in straighten-
draining and grading our
roads and have our highways in
a condition that would be a
