HOW MANY MILES OF ROADS
'HAVE WE GOT.
The United States Department of
Agriculture is now gathering infor‘
motion which, when complete, should
not only give the total mileage of
publicmoa'ds: in therUnited States and
their cost, but should serve as a
basisdor estimating the relative. val-
ue‘ ot‘th‘e‘dlt'ferem kinds of highways.
Some 15,000 s'ets of inquiry; blanks
have already . been . distributed
through the State Highway Commis-
slons,and some of these are nowhe-
ginning to come back to the depart-
ment. Each sci consists pf four
cards.
. Of these the first asks for informa-
tion on the mileage of different class-
es of roads in the county to which
it Is sent. The mileage does not iu~
clude, of course, streets in cities and
towns. The roads are divided into 10
classes as follows: Brick paved,
of some substance, such as asphalt,
oil, or ta}, plain macadam, gravel,
shell, other hard surfaced roads,
sand and clay
graded and drained, ordinary earth
roads properly -constructed, and,
tlhally, unimproved roads. :-
tionin regard to the is; rate for the
roads and the amount of work and
money expended on them. .
The third blank is'concsrned with
the names. of local road officials, and
hood issues 'and the, indebtedness of
the coutit‘i'es or their 1611.: systems.

probable that this preliminary survey
will be. exact. The department, how-
ever, will be able to detect any ex-
cessively iniiccurate reports for the
road mileage per square mile 'of ter-
ritory doesnol vary excessively. Ex-
cept in desert or undeveloped coun-
try less than halt a mite or public
road to every square mile of territory
is rate; while in the‘most. thickly
populated 'rural sections the maxi
mum is no more than 2 1-2 or 3
miles. Thus, in France, there is an
average for the entire country of
1.76 to a square mile. In ltaly, how-
ever, this has fallen to .86. possibly
on account of the mountainous char-
acter of much of the peninsula and
of Sicily and Sardinia.
In America the average is approxi-
mately 80 miles. which, in view of
the fact that much of the country is
sparsely settled, seems unduly high.
An explanation, however, is to be
Itound in the tact that in many states
the law provides that each section
line shall be a public road. Thus,
for example, there-are in..the state
of Iowa alone more than 104,000
miles ‘0! legal highways, manifestly a
much largermlleage than is required
by inside.
When the information in regard to
the existing roads which the depart-
ment is now seeking is complete, it
is the intention to continue the ini
dairy year after year in order to as-
o!_ the various kinds of highways.
