The U oi led States JVp.irtifcent of Agricul turo has made an investigation of th'n matter, however, and the results show the cost for cotton, for instance to I?e an average rule of twenty hi v en ceiitu | ??_- r ton per mile f?>r au nv criige haul of 1 1 H miles. Tl?at road improvement would materially re duce this e??at ia shown by the fol lowing hi riUing statement in tlio Year book of the Agricultural I)o? par tnu nt f?>r 1 00(5 : 'It it were possible to Increase the average weight of a wagon load of cotton in I lie United Status from three bales, as it now is, to four hales, without increasing the coat of hr.'ulir.K tho load, i'uo saving on a crop equal t'> tho one picked in 1005 would amount to #2, 000,000; anil if tho average load of wheat, now 5T> hnshels, were increased by 20 bush* eln, tho saving cfTi-olod in hauling a Crop like (hat of 1905 would be moro than $8,000,000.' " We want everybody who can to be present at the in< eting* because its success will depend largely up* n its representative character.
