W h ile Pennsylvania Is talking about Improved roads N e w Jersey is building them, says the Philadelphia Press. The very able state road commission appointed under an act of the last legislature of this state reports that Pennsylvania is behind other states in load legislation. That w a s well known before the commission discovered It. but the road legislation is fa r better than the roads. The hitter are prim! tive, and. except where private or ex­ ceptional local enterprise has taken their improvement in hand, the coun­ try roads of Pennsylvania alternate between extreme and heavy muddi- i ess and extreme and deep (lustiness. N e w Jersey, with less natural advan ­ tages for good rondmaking than Penn­ sylvania. Is getting her highways In prime condition. The seventh annual report of tlu* N ew Jersey commissionei of public roads contains ,*i map of the slate with 532 miles of improved coun­ try roads traced in red lines.
