In 1904 New Jersey had 2,422.3 miles, or 16.32 per cent, of her 

 total mileage surfaced. In 1909 she had 3,377 miles, or 22.75 per cent, 

 of surfaced roads, while in 1914 she reports 5,897.45 miles, or 37.8 per 

 cent of the total miles surfaced, thus showing that during the 5-year 

 period 1909 to 1914, 2,475.99 miles of road, or 17 per cent of the total 

 mileage, were surfaced. Information showing the total road mileage 

 and mileage improved in the various counties is contained in Table 8, 

 which does not include city streets. These are included in Table 9, 

 which is supplementary and is given because New Jersey is, to a very 

 great extent, urban in character, and the street and country-road 

 problems are closely interwoven. Table 9 is copied from the Twenty- 

 second Annual Report of the Commissioner of Public Roads, 1915.
