Editor i'alatka News:
It is certainly encouraging to note
the interest the people of I'alatka
and the section of country adjoin
in p aie taking in the good road
movement. 1 refer particularly .)
your recent bond election for brick
roads.
There is no question about brick
roads being the mot permanent, if
V properly constructed. When we
consider the cos', brick roads should
last forever. Every mile of 9-foot
brick road costs S2.".OO0: here are
the figures: Actual cost of con
struction, low estimate, $10,000 per
mile. Interest at 5 per cent per an
num, $500. Total interest fop 30
years, the life of ordinary bond is
sues "0 times S500 amounts to
$15,000. Add original cost of $10,
000, total S-5.O00 per mile. '
Now the cost of Sand-Asphali
road: Every mile of sand-asphalt;
read costs $:l,500. This is top pric I
t'.rst cost. Add 5 per cent for :W
years, which is S:l,50. Add this
to the original cost and vou have
or practically one-fourth the make
not an experiment, but has been pro
ven a success as a road material.
I am hopeful that our county will
soon come to a full realization of
the worth and substantial benefits
offered in sand-oil construction, and
