ROADBUILDING COLORADO DOUBLES MILEAGE ■ ~— Mere Than 60 Per Cent of Road» Havo Been Improved During P*«t Seven Years. — (Tiepured by th* United Si»t«» fiepertment vs Agrtculture ) Uolurudu bus luviv thun dwubku its •' mileage of improved roud in the IM< ' i-evrii yeurs, according tv the bureau of public roads of the United States Department of Agriculture, which luis I made Uh extensive investigation »» t" tiie highwuy mileage and revenue of the stute. In l*.H4 there was 13.298 tulles of improved roud and a total ot 39,780 miles, Willie Ln 1921 the improved , mileage had increased to 29,540 miles and a total of 48,143 miles. The Improved road at the present time Is clussitied us follows: Graded and drained, 24.941 miles; sand, clay and gravel. 4,397 miles; mucadaui, 131 miles; other types of surfacing, 71 miies. Willie most of the improved road in this suite Is what is known us lowtype road, the fact that more than tJO IMI 'fill F/ .H *■ • ' I A Concrete Cement Road in Colorado. per cent of the total mileage has been improved constitutes a record that will be envied by many. For each square mile of area the roud revenue amounts to $85.50, and there is one-half mile of road. The total road revenue amounts to $9.35 per capita. $182.07 per mile of road, and totals $8,705,443. DIRT ROADS WASTE GASOLINE Gallon of Fuel Necessary to Drive Car Six Miles on Earth and Twelve on Hard. An investigation carried on bj' an automobile manufacturer showed that Hu* consumption of a gallon of gasoline was necessary to drive a machine six miles on the average earth roads as against twelve miles on the hard | surfaced roads, according to Automobile Topics. These figure* would indicate a saving in gasoline, on the basis of 400 vehicles per mile a day. of 50,000.000 gallons on 10.000 miles of improved roads. At 24 cents a gallon this amounts to $12,000,000, er more than enough to pay 5 per cent interest on the Investment. One billion, seven hundred million dollars per year will pay $15,500,000,000 of 5 per cent bonds (principal and interest) in a little less than twelve years. In other words, if we could immediately lay down 2,500,000 miles I of public highway at a cost of $15,500,Ooo.uOO, borrowing the money to do it with at 5 per cent Interest, the $1,700.000,000 saved to the producers of farm products in the one item of reduced cost of moving their annual crops to market would pay off the debt, principal and Interest, in less than twelve years. i ANCIENT PAVING MATERIALS i Romans Used Brick as Early as 44 A.
