Tho Slate Highway Commission hat adopted the following policy with re gard to road surveys: Whenever any County Bhnll make application to the Commission setting forth a desire to do construction work on post roads, forest roads or any other stnte highway within Us limits, the Commission will authorize a daf Inlto locntlon Burvcy rutaltlifihlnp grades and alignments. The expense of such surveys will be paid for from tho stale funds of the Commission. Wo cannot conceive how a farmer can oppose the present good roads movoinent when It means so much to him to have good roads to take his products to the market. The State of Oregon is endeavoring to bring about a comprehensive system of road building, which It should have done years ago, but, strange to relate, ob jection Is raised by farmors, who will be tho most benefited by a system of hard surfaced trunk roads. Take Tillamook County for nn Illustration with a hard surfaced highway through the county. The farmers would use It 12 months of tho year and the sum mer auto travel three mouths of the year.
