but, according to the Good Roads Year
Book, she is the only state in the Un­
ion whose improved roads amount to
half o f her total roads. Delaware, her
closest rival for smallness, has only 6
per cent of her roads improved. Mas­
sachusetts presses her tiny neighbor In
this respect by making a showing of
49 per cent of her roads improved.
Naturally other states try to discount
this primacy o f Rhode Island. An In­
diana Journal accounts for it on the
I ground that the state is In reality
| nothing (nit Providence and Newport
i and their suburbs.
1 It then disposes o f Massachusetts by
the remark that, excent for some hills
through which only state roads run.
that commonwealth Is practically one
big town. This process of elimination
leaves Indiana at the top in the per­
centage o f improved roads. But the
Hoosier State already has honor enough
in the fact that it possesses more itillea
of Improved roads than any other state,
although Its 25.000 miles exceed Ohio's
supply of Improved highways by only
a few hundred miles. These two states
are far ahead o f the rest. Next to
them come New York, with 15.000
miles; Washington, with 12.000; Wis­
consin and Kentucky, with 10,000 each.
