They have sine been to St. Louis and to Detroit. The plan proposed for use in the Columbia district is almost like that adopted in Wayne county, the county in which Detroit, is. It is not a new idea, but has not been widely used up to tae present time. The plan is well liked where it has been tried, however, and it is possible that it will prove to be the solution of the good roads problem in county districts.

J. A. Hudson, one of the coinmis siouers of the Columbia district, say the plan appears to him to be a splen did one. Mr. Hudson says he has studied all of the roadways now in earth road, the macadam road aud the gravel road.

"I have come to the conclusion," he said, "that the earth roads is the best for 9 months in the year, but that in the other 3 usually come in the latter part of the are likely to be covered with mud. Tin- gravel and macadam roads require constant care to keep them in usually having to be resurfaced every year, or oftener. "The roads which the commission ers are considering for special road district are from 30 to 32 feet wide. They will be of the ordinary earth road construction, except that down the center of the roadway there will run a strip of concrete sev- feet wide. This is the concrete driving system.

"The cost of constructing driveways in our district will be about $3,500 a mile. The saving will conn- in the absence of expense for maintenance. Many roads require a large amount of money every to keel) them in good shape, but in the sys tern we propose to introduce in Booiit county the first cost is practically the only cost." The plan is well thought of in Co lumbia and probably will be tried. The Columbia special road district eight miles square and contains one hundred miles of roads. 'There are now twenty-five miles'of gravel roads in the district.

Last summer a bond issue of for road improve ments was approved by the district and a large part of this money will spent in building roads on the system. The practicability of the plan for the average country district has not yet been determined, but local roa-1 experts think highly of. it. It may be the solution of the problem of how to build and keep up good roads in country with only a nominal' expense CATTLE MARKET STEADY; HOGS ARE HIGHEK. Kansas City, May 16.
