HIGHWAYS OF STEEL A gutter track laid on an ordinary dirt or macadam boad it has been demonstrated that a horse can draw 20 times as much on a steel track as on a dirt road and the road parliament at atlanta passed a resolution recommending the construction of experimental lines of steel track roads in all the states in order that the practical value of lucli a system may be determined ter mined it has been estimated that to deliver farm produce to market say SO milca will cost by rail at least 15 centa per ten tons will cost 30 instead of 20 tons for one hordo call it 5 tons A team will deliver the 10 tons in 2 days for 10 with no return load making a not saving of 20 these figures show where the loss of the farm occurs and how it can bo saved the proposed steel track road is d borho railroad with a gutter track instead of a raised track the track is 5 PROPOSED STEEL TRACK ROAD inches wide on the bottom with halt inch raised sides it is laid on a longitudinal timber resting on ties middle between the tracks is filled in with stone and rounded up the water running into the tracks and to the sides ct the road by conduits from the bacel track it costs less it is said than a macadam or telford road this stool track ties and timber will cost less than 2500 a mile to this must bo added the grading and filling in between the tracks with stone or other suitable material A first class steel track road with the best macadam surface will cost less than a mile and a good country road with lighter materials can be built for less than a mile and this road when built is practically a railroad to every mans door for it is a perfect road for wagons bicycles and the coming road motors friends of the stone road claim that the steel road would require a double track arguing that if but one track is built and two loaded teama met on it which would have the right of way if a team could draw a load weighing 20 tons on such a road how could it turn out on a common road to pass another equally heavily loaded team and how could a fast team pass a slow team going in the same direction many are of the opinion however that such a system of steel roads if built double track would be a great blessing to farmers and better than any macadam or gravel road KENTUCKY HIGHWAYS governor bradley Kelle good coads are of great governor bradboy of kentucky in his message to tho legislature took occasion to call attention to tho condition of the roads in the state he said i the state aa a rulo lias paid bat little attention to the establishment and maintenance of public roads either tho present system is defective or its provi siona are not enforced if persons convicted of were compelled to work out their fines on the country roads it would prove quite beneficial 1 I cannot undertake to enter into a thorough discussion of this subject but earnestly call your attention to it good roads are of groat benefit to elioso who are compelled to ship or produce and aa has been well eaid by on eminent writer aro indubitable evidences of thrift and a high order of civilization VALUE OF GOOD ROADBEDS an object lesson for all who are inter egged wagon what would you think of a railway management that would permit its road to bo full of sags aud grades aud low joints and broken rails aud soggy places and would seek to overcome these ob by increasing the size and strength of its locomotives and cars asks good beads of course it would require lots more fael to make the steam only a half a train could be hauled the rolling stock would soon be destroyed and the whole resources of tho company would be spent in the repair shops briefly the first tiling to do would bo to build a good roadbed this au object lesson for farmers what is the in principle whether it is a railroad or a wagon road maine guide law the laws of the state of maine require hall towns and plantations to erect and maintain at all main crossing or under a penalty for failure of 5 for each board and for each mouth so neglected it is wondered it many towns are abaro of this in the select mens office it was recently to what it would cost this town if complaint had been made it was over rangeley me note fix the road and sae fixing the TO hides the condition of a road should not depend wholly upon the weather ono of the worst things to get over is a bad road is
