Extensive Highway System. The high quality of our roads, and the auto- 

 mobile give rural life in New Jersey substantially all the advantages and 

 opportunities of suburban life. Farmers in every section enjoy comfort 

 and economy in travel, and accessibility to markets, shopping centers, 

 churches and amusements. The State is covered with a network of 15,000 

 miles of rural roads; it has .784 miles of surfaced roads per square mile of 

 area, or nine times as much as the average for the United States. The State 

 and its various agencies are constructing a highway system which will in- 

 volve an expenditure of approximately $35,000,000. Only the best and 

 most durable types of roads are being laid down. These arteries of traffic 

 are opening up the undeveloped sections, and creating prosperous farms and 

 increased values everywhere.
