GRANT COUNTY
FINDS NEW WAY
TO SAVE ROADS
OLD GANG SYSTEM IS DISCARD-
ED IN FAVOR OF INDIVID-
UAL PATROL -- BETTER
AT LESS COST
The road patrol system used in
Grant county, Wash., is pointed out
by the United States department of
agriculture as an illustration of how
highways can be maintained most
successfully and economically. Other
counties in the state use the "gang"
system, assigning to each gang a
long section, upon which they make
repairs at intervals, seldom reaching
all the necessary points. In Grant
county the plan is to prevent a road
from getting into bad condition ra-
ther than to make repairs.
There are thirteen patrol sections
each from six to ten miles long, in
the 87.83 miles of county highways.
Each section is in charge of a pa-
trolman, who works constantly on
his piece of road, feeling that he
alone is responsible for its condition.
While these men work under the di-
rection of the county engineer, the
details are left largely to their judg-
ment.
A specially constructed light road
machine, called locally a "road fixer,"
is used. It has a long wheel base
and two outting blades rgidly con-
nected with the carrying frame of
the machine. The rear wheels are
on separate axles, controlled by sep-
arate levers. The patrolman carries
the necessary small tools for clear-
ing weeds, trimming shoulders, clean-
ing ditches aml for handling surface
material. He makes his own repairs
in the county repair shop under the
direction of a skilte.d mechanic.
The annual cost of this system,
states the bureau of public roads,
averages $223 a mile, which is less
than other counties pay where road
receive attention "only when they
need it." Grant county has graveled
roads second to none in the state,
and its people are enthusiastic sup-
porters of the patrol system.
TOURISTS SEE FAIRS
Notwithstanding the complaint of
hard times, there has never before
been the number of automobiles vis-
iting this state as has been seen here
the phesent summer. One thing no-
ticeable is that a very large percen-
tage of them, the fair majority, are
not idle pleasure seekers, but people
who have adopted this method for
the purpose of getting a full know-
ledge of the country, its resources
and its products in many cases
with a view to moving hither perma-
nently, if satisfied with conditions
as they find them. To this class of
tourists, the state fair at Yakima
and various district fairs should ap-
peal strongly, if brought to their at-
tention, €or there they can see mass-
ed the full display of the products
of this state, as they can be seen no-
where else. They can also, in visit-
ing the fairs, see the most prosper-
pus farming sections of the United
States and find out for themselves
the sound basis on which that pros-
