These tests show the tractive resistance in terms of fuel con umption to be as follows: The aver age per gallon of gasoline on dirt roads is M ton-miles; on gravel roads, 121 ton mile and on concrete roads .'SI ton-miles. The good reads department of the Iowa St.. to College r.nd the Iowa State Highways Commission established weighing sUti ns on impoitnnt ro..U in to stnte to determine the Ave age weight of the various classe of ve hlclefl.

At 21 ton miles per gallon it would require 7G.1 galloiu if the road were gravel, and at HI ton miles per gallon it would re quire 51.5 galons if the road were paved. According to these figures' dirt reads require 50 per cent more gaso line than do giavel reads and 120 pc cent more than do cone; etc road.-, and gravel roads require -17 per cent more than conc.cte roads. The daily saving, on this piece of ioad in gasoline alone at 21 cents per gallon would be as follow. : Gravel vends over diit roads . .$ 7.9G Concrete roads over dirt roads 11.03 Concrete over gravel rpads....... 5.17 Assuming this to be an average ot traffic for 300 days in the year the difference in the cost of power over one mile of road Would be-as follows: Gravel roads' over dirt roads .. $2 388 Concrete roads over gravel roads 1,551 Concrete roads over dirt roadfi...3$09 The cost of gasoline per ton-mile at 21 cents per gallon over dirt roads is 1.5 cents, ever gravel roads, 1 cent, and over concrete roads, 0.68 cents. At $'1,500 per mile, the saving on gasoline alone will pay for g.avcling this road every two years. This does not take into considera tion the difference in the life of a machine over the different kinds of road . The average life of an automo bile is five years. There aic about 210,000 automobiles in Nebraska Nebraska must the i buy 18,000 auto nobilcs every yea- ut a cost of ap pr ximately $18,000,000.

Nat urally, ou want to sne the most oi the best, scenery in America on route. The logical route is the Bur lington (in connection with the Denver & Rio Grande Western and Western Pacific) because it takes you right through Denver, the Pike's Peak Region, Royal Gorge, scenic Colorado, Salt Lake City and the Grand Canyon of the Feather River in the beautiful Sierra Ne vada range. Then if you retnrn by way of the great Pacific North west (Yellowstone or Glacier Park line), Minneapolis-St. Paul and the "Burlington's Mississippi River Scenic Line, you put a ring around the Golden West-the most won derful trip in America, Rail rates are the same via all Western lines.
