(Prepared by thé United States Depart- menit - of * Agricuiture.) Of the 22,030 ‘nilles of roads which have been bu or are now under construction, more than two-thirds are earth roads, sand-clay, or gravel, says the’ chief of bureau of public roads, United - States Depart- ment of Agriculture.” These have cost less than one-third of the total amount pended as ‘compared with' nearly 50 cent of the estimated cost applied to 4,800 miles of hard-surfaced roads. | A study of locad conditions by an engineer of the bureau Is necessary before a_ road project may receive | federal aid. ‘ The type of road to be used and the most suitable surface with respect to | the traffic of the locality must be de- termined., Service must be satisfac- tory, while costs must be kept low, | both for building and maintenance. | There must be a careful analysis both | .of the engineering and economic con- | ditions for each . particular project. There are indlvidual considerations in | every case ‘which affcct the determi- | nation as to the-best type of road ma- terigls for that locality. The mileage of federal-ald roads which hgve been'built or’are now un- der. construction is nearly suffieient to encircle the globe, , This is the record of 'wotk accomplished since July, 1916, when | the Federal - government first stepped i fo aid in the enormous task of building highways that are now | called upon to ‘earry more than 9,000, 000 motaer vehicles plus a very sub- | eral-ald ty-eight states. The federal-aid law is well named. The Departwent of Agriculture has.giv- en the broadest possible construction to the lgw for’the purpose of provid- ing the greatest mileage of highways sulted to the traffic to be carried over them at the minimum expense, An analysis by the bureau of public rouds of 'the projects under contract | shotvs that all ‘types of roads,-from the graded ‘earth road up to the finest paved surfaces, have been built. On March 1 of this year, 22,030 miles of highway, extending into every state, had/bgen completed or were in process of construction, says the bu< | reau, at a total estimated cost of §361,- | 946,808, The pereentage of this total | Federal Road Heing Constructed Near Westfield, Mass. . estimated ‘cost which will be incurred for ‘cach type, and. the' mileage of each type, bused upon the records, of plans approved, ure as folows: Per Cent and Mileage ,of Each Typa of Road.
