''-'A ; x (.OVKIIAMKNT AMI .ol lt).l. There is .In one really ettafiitlal thing in which we Americani. are fur behind Knrope, and that Ik our city paving ami country highway. There you have to anarch for a poor road, while here, outside of a few stuteu, otii must huy piilrte hook and hunt tor t he occasional Rood onen. A p pa really thU discrepancy against u:; is due to the fact that there national govern nieiit haH a com roll lug ln tluence while here It hatt none. In re gard to roads. We have donated nearly "O.ooo.OiH) acres of pillule lands to assist In building rallroado. against whose excesHive rate charges e now require an luierntate I'om nieri Commission. We have Hpent nearly Jtion.ooo.ooo in river and harbor improvement! and light hounew to safeguard commerce. Jt Ih cominc to he understood that drainage or large tracts nhould be done hy the Federal f.overnmeiit and not hy the states. The logical nolution of Na tional good roads Is likewise under Government supervision and with Government aid. The French government contribu ted $' 1 2, nun. nun to good roads' con struction and supervises their main tenance today, with the result thai It has the best roads in the world. Residents In agricultural districts naturally asmnne that good roads are for the city man with an auto mobile. This is anything but true. On the contrary. 41 per cent of tile population of the I'nlted Statts liv. on farms or In towns of 12 ti Inhabi tants or less. Of the billion dollars. Bpent early to run oir Government, ruin! free delivery and the Agricul tural Department are the two thing: which iii"" immediate ben.-tit to the farmer ami Ihese cost $;. "tin. iMMi, nr on!v 'I per rent. As to th conr-tlnii ional right of Federal Gov ernment to do this wink there ap pears to he- no uuestion; in fact, eari in the 1 soil's it was dime, hut w!ien railroails tame into existence the building of highwas was dropped. However, portions of t hese roails. now a century obi. are still in use and bear witness to the excellence of their construction. The high chai acter ot the work ol our Army en gineers In irrigation, drainage, ;md on the Panama Canal, warrants con fidence fn a good-roads inovei.. -nt under Federal direction, which shall Insure a permanent const ruction and what is quit H necessary proper maintenance. One plan which seems to be generally improved is for a di vision of the costs into thirds; the Government, the state and the coun ties so improved, each paying an eniiil amount. As this cost would be spread out over a term of years. the Increased value of far in laud af fected would h" much more than the cost to the counties.- 11. II.
