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- LOGGED-OFF LAND.
