The year 1920 promises to develop a revolution in America's two great problemshighways and transporta tion. All over the country great interest is being manifested in better roads and Improved transportation facili ties. The coming of the pneumatic-tired motortruck has given an impetus to the movement for a national highway system that is sweeping everything before it State after state has passed, with out noticeable opposition, appropria tions for millions of dollars to build and Improve main market and Inter county highways. What these activities portend can be visualized in some measure when it is said that of the 2,000,000 miles of roads in this country only 200,000 miles are improved. Motor transports work at highest ef ficiency on good roads, although the pneumatic truck tire Is rendering con spicuous service In transporting heavy loads over swamp ground and the sandy soil of fruit groves. KEEP ON URGING GOOD ROADS Improved Highways Are Fundamental ly Essential to Highest Advance ment of Civilization. We are doing well in acquiring and building roads at present, and our legislation is to be commended for starting this creditable work but wAen we find a travelable road volar put every farm, through every vil lage, town and city, then will it bo time enough to cease talking "good roads." They are fundamentally es sential to the highest advancement of oar own civilization. HELP APPEARANCE OF HOMES Good Roads Stimulate Fanners to Im prove Appearance of Farms and Buildings Thereon. Along improved roads there is a'vis ible tendency for farmers to improve the appearance of their homes and their outbuildings. In fact, the pres ence of good roads seems many times to stimulate latent self-respect into practical expression. There is no won der that a bog of weU-nlgb impassa ble mud before one's door should react unfavorably upon the entire family.
