Tho Capital Journal has Just re
colved from tho good roads bureau
of tho agricultural dopartment tho
following Interesting article on tho
maintonanco of dirt roads and takes
pleasuro in giving it spaco because
of Its Interest to Marion county tax
poyors: Wo may recognize tho valao of
hard and durablo'roada in all parts
of tho country, but still tho fact re
mains that for a long tlmo io como
tho majority of tho roads will bo
composed of earth. Furthermore,
in about nlno months out of tho
year, tho earth road, If properly
cared for, Is reasonably satisfactory.
For many agricultural districts, it h
tho only road at prosont available
Honcc, thoso communities should
set themselves seriously to work to
learn tho best mothods of maintain
ing earth roads and of getting tho
maximum sorvlco from thorn. Pros
perity comes to tho country to n
groat oxtent through tho prosporlty
of tho fnrmors. This fact strongly
suggosits tho lmportnnco of giving
tho earth road every poislblo caro
nnd attention In Its location', drain
ago, construction and maintonanco.
An oarth road composed of water
holding soil should bo oxposed to
tho Bun nnd air as freely as possible,
aa comparison between tho shaded
and sunny portions of such a rond
will oaslly Indicate. This should bo
accomplished by eloarlng a sufflclont
amount of trees and undergrowth
nway from tho road. It must bo re
membered, howover, that sandy nnd
gravelly roads roqulro moisture, nnd
In these casoe soma shndo should bo
rotalnod. Furthermore, troos are
beneficial along, river bankB and on
ateop grados subject to washing
Dralnngo Is ono of tho most Im
portant points to consldor In con
nection with an oarth road. Tho
majority of oarth roads In all moun
tainous and hilly dlstrlcta havo too
much dralnngo. Occasionally a road
will bo found with five dltchos, threo
In the middle mndo by tho horsos'
hoofs nnd by whoels of tho vohlclos,
nnd two on tho sldos. All woll-con-fltruotod
oarth roads are supposed to
havo no moro than two dltchos, ono
on oach side of tho traveled road

Tho advisability of wholosnlo elec
trification of all tho railroads in the
country has boon formally considered
In abstract before the olootrlcal en
gineering associations, and the ques
tion has boon found so groat that the
mootings woro marked moro by con
tention nnd argument than be defi
nite results or conclusions.
Figures presented show the esti
mated oxpondlturo Involvod should
every mile of railroad In the United
SUite be reconstructed for operation
by eloctrlolty, and tho rolling equip
ment changod to correspond. Tho
total cost of such a ohango Is gtvon
at about $1,600,000,000. Electrical
powerhouses to glvo a total of 2,100,
000 kilowatts or 2.S0O.00O horeo
power would be roqulrod. Flftoen
hundred million of dollars is a sum
go vast that It means nothing to the
average person, and yet it represents
an Investment so stupendous that
r.nly an extremely small portion of
! can bo considered to havo nny re
lation to the Immediate future.
The economy of such a change ha
boea estimated, In prospoet ,as con
sldrable. Prosent operating coU
for the movomont of every car and
engine In the country total $1,400.
uOO.000 In one year. By electrifica
tion this would be reduced to about
$250,000,000, representing ' that
mich actual and not saving. This
last mm Is Indoed onorroous. but It
only emphasizes the magnitude of
the projoot of universal electrifica
tion; for the most radical advocates
of tho new power have not yet dared
to claim that the saving, largo as Jt
teems, would warrant the obange In
Its entirlty.
Undor certain spoolal conditions,
