The department agriculture is preparing
to issue a pood roads map of ^
the State. The drawing are about ^
complete and will in a few days be
sent to the litogiapher,
Letters have been addressed to
the county supervision of the State
for the purpose of learning the exact
number miles and the location of the
improved highway, of the State.The
map will not be colored, but will
contain the plan skeleton outline
with the public highways and the (
railroads.
I he improved roads will be mark- ^ :
sd by red lines with distances be- 1
twec-n different points. The gaso'ine
stations will be marked on the map _S(
so that an automobilists traveling ^
through the State may ascertain
wheie this very necessary material
Re
lor motoring may be obtained. The
railroads \vi!l be given so that when
i machine breaks down the party
"nay see just now many miles will
nave to be covered by foot to a ^
ailroad station.
Une or the most important ioad- 11
ways to be shown will be the Capital
Highway, which extends form the ^
North Carolina line to North Augusta
on the Savanah River. Other
highways that have taken definite
shape will be tire one from < olumbia
to < harleston and proposed
route from t olumbia to Ashcville.
There arc in South < arolitia apprqimately
45,000 miles of public
highways and a large number of *n'
miles are being improved each year.
Another important locdway to be ^1
shown will be the National highway
which extends acros s the Piedmont
section of the State. This roadway
has been mateiially improved in the
past year and with very few ixcep- ^
lions will be marked good all the
way acrosss.
