GOOD ROADS SHOULD BE IN UNITS. 



The idea is taking root and gradually devel- 

 oping that a system of highways for a town- 

 ship or county should be a unit rather than a 

 collection of disconnected fragments. As has 

 been so often pointed out, a mile of macad- 

 aini/ed road is of little value if it has a piece of 

 poor road at each end of it. Counties should 

 be allowed to issue br.nds for the construction 

 of highways sullicicntly extensive to be of the 

 greatest value, and should not be compelled to 

 depend upon Mich funds as they may have 

 from year to year to do a small amount of 

 work. It would he almost as reasonable for a 

 railroad to build its line two or three miles at 

 a time or for a county to put up its court 

 house and other public buildings in small sec- 

 tions. A great work will have been accomp- 

 lished when t lie idea can be given full currency 

 that a system of highways is indeed a system 

 and is treated as such both from the stand- 

 point of construction and maintenance.
