Good Roads . The following paper on the above subject was read before the Tike coifnty farmer’s institute at its last session by W. A. Oliphnnt: . My paper will be devoted to the necessities of good roads, the advantages derived therefrom and a few suggestions as to the most practicable method of construction. The necessity of good highways is fast becoming apparent to all successful fanners in fact a large portion of our elate have many years ago solved the problem of profitable larming—economy. The money making farmers are not altogether those who successfully till the earth to such an extent that it produces a greater) ield per acre than his neighbors, but it is to the one who exercise^' greater economy of time, * expense and marketing of products. The farmer who can find the most employment on the farm, using good judgement in other matters, will obtain wealth more rapidly than his neighbors. One of his employments should be the marketing of Ids products at a time when not busily engaged iu his crops, saving thereby the expense of employing teams and hands to do the work that he himself can do at a season when his crops do not require his attention. Another should be duying rhe fpll, winter gad early spring months the marketing of such of his crops as is of the least value, but when sold will bring a valuable remuneration for his time and labor. Tins cannot be done tb tiny great extent uule»8 a road passable at this aeason is furnished, oVer which these products can be transported tq a market. i One may ask what will such roads he made from in sections destitute of limestone, gravel or other substances from which macadam is usually manufactured. My answer is, use t-lie best elements which nature and science can furnish. A small amount of civil engineering and a reasonable amount of good common''sense, and the desired result can be obtained. A l*ike county farmer may inquire can our common roads lx? sochanged and improved so that they will remain good during wet weather and yet not require a large expenditure of money ? My answer is, yes, and I will now give my plans and my reasons for believing it a good one. First to lay a four inch tile in the centre of the proposed road at a depth of eighteen inches, then grade the road bed until the tile is thirty-six to for tv inclj^s below the surface of the center of the road, then lay the tile eighteen inches deep in each of the two ditches; thus we have three parallel lines of tile, beneath the road bed, and by having it well rouuded by a grader, a large percent of surface water will be carried off beiore it has sufficient time to soak the road but after long and continuous rains a portion will find its way beneath the surface, where it will find ready means of exit through the center tile, and still the earth will remain firm and solid, sufficiently so to carry up the ordinary traffic of the country in any season of the year. What is the cost of such a road so described ? The total cobil of construction aud material with an average haul of four miles of tile will not ex*275 ner mile. If smaller tile is

used the cheapness ts correspondingly decreased and there is no reason why a three inch tile will not, if properly placed in the ground, curry off all! the water required of it. Some one inquires, what do you know of tiliug roads? In the spring of 1886, Pselected a piece of road near the home of Robert Hyneman, in Clay townbhip, which had in the spring, or after protracted rainy seasons, been subject to chucks anc't miry holes, thus making it impassible for loaded Vehicles, except in dry weather. It being ten nnles from a tile factory and the cost of haulin||lhe tile being an .important item in ihe expeuse of my experiment, I decided to use a three inch tile and this placed in a ditch on only one side of the road at a depth of only eighteen inches. The following winter of *1)6 and 87 was very wet making our clay roads impassable for thirty or forty days, in the months of February and March, hut this particular road of eighty rods remained solid and in first-class condition during the spring. What principal advantages are to derived from this improved road

system? They ere varied and many. First. I will say in a commercial view that they will enable a farmer lo sell ami deliver his produces at a season when he can do it cheapest, at a season when the present roads are not iti a condition lo transport heavy loaded vehicles. The winter under the present blocked system of roads the farmer can do but little traveling and that under difficulties whieh only (he farmers can understand. Portions of this country are celebrated for its productions of wheat. Wlfen the wheat is separated from its straw amj has been put tu the granaries the farmer has realized all of his crops that is considered of value, and tlie straw, being ip his way is burned or left to rot in the stacks and bepoine an eyesore to his farm, .being an asylum for alii kinds of insects, a nursery for cheat and obnoxious weeds. What has good roads to do with this

straw ? soiine one inquires. A prominent capitalist of Vincennes said to me not long ago: Wliv burn so much straw when it is so valuable? lie told . me that when the straw board works were first built in that city that the farmers were burning this straw as we do here, but when they realized that they could get from $6 50 to $7 50 per ton for all the straw they had, jihey then became interested in a winter road over which they could deliver their straw during the idle months of the year. Those roads have been built in every direction fropi the city. The straw board works have doubled and tripled their capacity, and it is estimated that the straw thus sold and the casli received haye many times overpaid the cost of building the roads, besides enabling them to market other products at pleasure, and the end is not yet. As onr portion of the state is almost entirely destitute ot gray’d or limestone, it does not become us as energetic and successful farmers to sit idly on the goods boxes ot country stores and lament our fate, but rather let jus get to work and try to better our condition and bring our present dirt, roads into the best condition possible, and.it lias been demonstrated to my entire satisfaction, that while a thorough system of tiling may ’not make them equal to gravel roads, it .will improve them to such an extent that; we will be amply rewarded for ail the money and labor expended upon them and furnish us a road that will enable us to sell a greater amount of farm products than ever before. The trustee of Honey Creek township, Vigo county, informed me that enough straw was sold the first year after he had improved the roads leading from his township iuto Terre Haute to pay all the expenses.of improving the road. The saving of time which will bring country people nearer to market is an important item, besides the luxury and pleasure derived from driving over roads not subject to swampy places where danger abounds is no small matter. lijailroads have now penetrated the agricultural districts as far as it has proved profitable to itsHmilriers, and the farmer, who refuses to assist in building a country road to his rail road station, thinking that a railroad will be built in close proximity fo his house where he can market his products at home, will probably get left, therefore let us beghi the long needed enterprise and secure some of its benefits before we are too old to enjoy them.
