Also "ag T'ailae 0.andjl.00 atalDrgte GROWTH OF IMPROVED ROADS Mileage of Surfaced Highways Has Been Increasing at Rate of 16,000 Miles Yearly. tapid increase in total expendi tures for roads and bridges, growth of building and.malutenance activities under state supervision, and a sharp decrease in the proportion of contribu tions in the form of statute labor mark the development 'of highway work in the United States during the past 12 years. These facts are brought out by statistics for the cal endar year 1915, recently compiled by the ofllce of public roads and rural en gineering of the department. The total length of public roads in the United States outsht the limits of incorporated towns and cities was about 2,452,000 miles on January 1, 1916. Of this, about 2?7,000 miles, or 11.3 per cent, were improved with some form of surfacing. The mile age of surfaced roads has been in creasing at the rate of about 10,000 a year, and in 1915 approximately one half of this increase was made under the supervision of state highway de partments. In addition these de Concrete Culvert. partments supervised the maintenance of nearly 52,000 miles of main and trunk-line roads. The increase in expenditures for road and bridge work in the United States has been from approximately' $80,000,000 per year in 1904 to about $282,000,000 in 1915, an increase of more than 250 per cent. The expendi. ture of state funds during this same period increased from about $2,550,00( to more than $53,000,000. In addition more than $27,000,000 of local fund was spent under state supervision i1 1915, bringing the total road an bridge expenditures managed by th stutes to $80,415,6099. This amount i greater than the total expenditur-s fo I roads and bridges from all sources I 1004. An increase in the uses of better an more expensive types of roads also I shown by the recently compiled statis tics. This development has been due in large part, to the great increase it automobile traffic. It is estinated that there are now approximately tw and one-hltf million automobiles iit use of the roadls of the country, om one car for every mile of rodd. Tht9 jpresent motor traftic is in excess of traffle of all sorts 12 years ago. The cash road and bridge expendi tures of the United States averaged only $28 per mile of rural roadts in 1004. In 1915 this average had growna to $109 per mile. New Jersey led ali other stattes, both it 1904 and in 1915. with $221 and $475 per mile, resper tively. Nevada madle thle least expendi tutre in both years-$3.72 per mile in 1904 andl $17 per mille in 1915. COUNTY IS BUYING TROUBLE Road That Will Not Outlast Ii Cost Is Liability-Finally Becomes a Total Loss. Whent a county or' towvnship builds a road that will not outlast its cost, that county or township is buying troub~le andI pitying cash for it. It horrows montey to buy a liablility creates a debt to buy something that wvill be a continual' expense until it finally becomes a total loss through being worn out.
