And the roads are good roads, without question.!; Any
one driving over the gravel road ia'Washington,' surfaced

for our own variety in the Grande- Itondc valley. ' The
loose gravel construction is supixiscd to cut' maintenance

owner's expense in operation costs, in wear on tires, in in-.

It is a wonderful investment. It has cost money, but
Jt has paid Rood dividends nnd the vast returns of the
future can only be imagined as we iinajrine the North
west's development durinp; the cominjr decades. Of special
importance is the county road work because it is providing
iidenuato transportation for the farm and ranch. ' The
i'iriiculturist is no lonjrer to be handicapped in moving
liis crop to market or in havinjr within easy reach such
I'dvantajres as a city can offer. Good roads asc like many
of the things that have become known-necessities of life 1
they must be paid for whether or not we have them. Fortu
nate it is that the people of Tnion county have long; since
recognized that fact and have gone ahead with road de
velopment accordingly.
