HIGHWAY' IMPROVEMENT.
Subject That Is Demanding Much
Attention In NeW York.
Special Correspondence.
Iq determining' upon our highway
Improvement policy we. must consider
the purpose that the roads are to serve
Xhe most important use. Is to enable
the farmer to market his prodnce: and
procure supplies at the least annoy
ance ahd'expense for transportation.
Being the foundation Industry, we may
justly claim that the first object 'should
be to provide enhanced facilities for
travel and traffic between the farms
and the business centers or , shipping
points. The welfare of the state de
pends upon a prosperous and remuner
ative agriculture; and plans should be
made to conserve the Interests related
thereto rather than to build long lines
of connecting highways that are not of
material use to the farmer or any oth
er business of Industry. The. establish
ment" of through roads should be made
secondary to an improvement of the
radiating highways that' are used to
reach every point from which produce
is shipped or that in la Itself a center
for the disposal of produce or the pur
chase of supplies. '

quite as much obligation to aid will be
left to struggle as best they may un

If there Was an ! unlimited fund at
the command of the state, each locali
ty might In time be reached by a share
of the "benefits. But the bonded debt
cannot exceed $50,000,000. and it will
require practically , all that remains of
that sum to complete the state roads
as projected by the legislative commit
tee. While provision is made in the
bills Introduced by the joint committee
for both state and county roads, yet it
may be easily foreseen that the state
roads are to have first attention, and
when that Is accomplished the fnnd
will be absorbed, and the state cannot
therefore assist in the improvement of

I the state, county and town and be. so ,
apportioned that they will provide an I
