There is a wanise that when New
York and Brooklyn are consolidated the
elevated railways of the two cities will
also be couwlidatcd. Branches will be
built so that there will be no break or
transfer to other cars in crossing the
present Brooklyn bridge or future
bridges that will be constructed. 'thn
this is done. the rural visitor to the big
city will greatly appreciate it. for it
will enable him to go from one side of
East river to the other in somewhat less
time than it would require to travel to
Philadelphia.
THE CHEAPEST ROADS.
The Best That Can Be Built. and the l'eo-
ple Ihould Have Then.
A very wise philosopher has observed
that the great bulk of the people must
always support the mass of the popula-
tion.
The people pay for everything the
people have. The public pays for the
railroads and the expense of running
them. If the railroads were only half as
good and could only haul half as much.
it would cost the people twice as much
to ride or ship over them.
It is fortunate for the people that
railroads are conducted in an organized
businesslike way. If the opponents to
improved roads had their way. the rail-
roads would be neither profitable nor
pleasant.
The people of a community are the
ones vitally interested in the roads of
that community.
If the farmers of each township were
to‘ or andrmutuelly agree that
they Would go about it in an organized
way to build and maintain a system 0
good roads, ”their sum of happiness wouh ‘
be increased
“Since the people pay for the 11.1.1...
why not have those that are cheapest .‘
and most pleasant—the very best onesf

' Work of Farm Bones Comm.
Suppose We compare the work done:
by farm horses abroad with the work
done by farm horses in Penna lvaniu.
It is generally admitted that a flimsy!-
vania farmer does not average more
than one ton of marketing to two horses,
and he must send one man with every
two horses. Scotch and English farmers
generally put tWo tons of marketing on
a one horse cart and place two of those
carts in chargoof one driver. The driver.
ties one of these carts behind the other
and walks alongside the first one. Thus
we have an English farmer doing with
one man and two horses the work an
American farmer takes four men and
eight horses to do.—Arthur Kirk.
Cost of Dirt Bonds. .
Keeping poor roads in repair. and
opening new thoroughfares cost Massa-
chusetts in 1893, outside of cities, $1,-
130,944. or $60.30 per mile; New York,
132, 500, 000, or $80 per mile, and New
Jersey, is? 78. 407. 82. or $43. 135 per mile.
The total expenditure for roads in that
year amounted to about $20,000,000.
As a greater part of the enormous sum
was spent in repairing poorly construct-
ed 101113.111» would need exactly the
same attention next yeu1.‘ it was not an
exaggeration to say that most of the
money was wasted—Manufacturer.
lad Thule the Heaviest Tax.
Farmers are opposed to high taxes.
but the knowledge that the average cost
of hauling their pnoducts to markets or
railway stations is 25 cents per ten per
mile should convince them that this is
the most burdensome tax imposed upon
them. They should study the good road
problem with a view to the reduction of
their real tax burdens -
Good Bonds Suggestion.
Let a town employ a skilled road en-
gineer to lay out and specify what and
where repairs should be made. leaving
the work to be carried out by the high-
way superiufendenf. A few days’ labor
in this way Would give more points to
the ordinary road surveyor than could
be got into his head by reading a your
-Exchange.
Things to Remember.
The softer the road . the harder it is
for the home.
The won'h of a farm depends on the
kind of roads leading to market.
The secret of thersuccess of the flue
roads in France is attributed to the
pronipt and systematic repairs made at
all canons d the year.
Good roads are likely to be more pop~
ular next summer than ever before.
The magnificent roads of Europe
which traveling Americans find so won-
derful are the result Of scientific con.
sanction and a thoroughly studied 11on
tern of, constant repairs .

Bicycles as Baggage.
Governor Mortonof New York has
signed the bill passed by the New
York legislature providing that wheel-
men may check their bicycles as free
baggage. The act- takes effect immedi-
ately. The Consolidated Railroad
companv will be affected as far as that
portion of its tracksvwithin the limist
of New York arc-concerned. A prom-
inent official of the Consolidated road 1..
said that there was a question wheth-
er the law would apply in cases where
the. wheels were carried from Connec-

action of the railroad in this matter
maybedetermined by the result of a
test case which President Depcw of
the New York Central says will be
heard 1n the courts.
