Yet, the-construction of Provincial High- ways, the leading feature of which is the road from Windsor to the Quebec boundary with branches to Ottawa, and through the fruit district from Hamilton to Ningar 'has rently received some tegree of criti- cism. Some have distinguished unfavorably between the proposed work and the building of market roads. Others see in it an ex- penditure for plesSure seekers only. It therefore becomes expedient that reasons for the proposed work be given publicity, Encourages Market Roads From the inception of the Ontario High- |ways Department, special attention bas been given to the encouragement of "mar- 'ket roads", those radiating from local mar- |ket | towns und shipping points, for the [benefit of farm production; and counties which have been operating under the High- way Improvement Act for » few years have shown most gratifying progress in that res- It is a well-known axiom, however, that, "'rosds must be bdilt for the traffic they are to carry!"; and the cost is neces- surily proportionate to the strength and dimensions of the rod; in other words, pro- proportionate to the traffic.

The farming community slong the route is fairly entitled to a good market road. Yet, as soon as the various sections are joined up, or approximately so, with ordin ary construction suitable for local purposes, heavy commercial traffic will render the expenditure futile, Lincoln County Coun- cil has been spending nearly $1,000 per mile annually, in an effort to maintain the Queenston and Grimsby stone road, ! twenty six miles in length, through that scounty, The cost merely of repairing this road would build many lightly travelled roads in the Province. There is no more important market road in Ontario, and I know of ne means of meeting the situation in connection with routes of this cluss, other than that provided in the Provincial Highways Act. - Expenditure Already Exists Becuuse they are assumed as Provincial Highways, new roads are not created; the roads alreudy exist, the bridges and culverts on them must be built and through town- ship and county organization, considerable expenditures are being made-on them, as indicated by experience as stated 'on the Queenston and Grimsby Road.

It is the aim of the Provincial Highways Act to require each benefitted municipality to pay 'toward Provincial Highway an amount st Teast equal to the cost of a foad suited to local market traffic. This is equitable for all, for s good gtavel or stone road, lightly travelled, is fully as useful in ite place as An appeal to prejudice rather than to!

No doubt some of both will drive over these roads | Théy wlso travel on railway trains--but the commercial value of the steam railway is not diminished by the fact. The road and the vehicles are comple mentary parts of the one machine. The commercial value of well-built roads con- necting urban centres is equal to the ef- ficiency of the motor car--and the efficien- cy and usefulness of the motor cur and mo- tor truck have been demonstrated beyond all question by the large and growing num- ber employed. In 1918 there were 101.845 motor cars and 7,529 motor trucks registered in the Province, Motor trucks are purely corii- mercial. Of the passenger cars, 37,262 were owned by farmers. Of the motor cars 84,018 or over 82 per cent, were small machines such as the Ford and the Chevrolet of 25 horse-power or less. These are not the cars of mere pleasure- seekers, but are the cars of men who have serious use of them. Even if Provincial Highways should be used to some extent for pleasure, that should not condemn the work. Does the 'average farmer not want the roads im- proved in some measure for the pleasure it will fortunately sdd to his occupation?

Tourist Traffic There are those who decry Provincial Highways as routes for the foreign tourists, Yet, -knowing the value as a source of wealth, France and Switzerland have spent enormous sums on main roads to attract is the more expensive road built for the heavier traffic which the latter must carry. Claims of District Traversed ineial expenditure for county and provincial highways is met from the reven- ue from motor vehicles. In 1916, the rched- 'ule of fees was substantially increased for 'that purpose. The route traversed by the proposed Provincial Highway serves muni- cipalities having half the population, and more than half the assessment of the Pro- vince. At least half the revenue from motor cars is derived from the area immediately adjoining. the route. No other equal mile- age would give these districta so much di- rect benefit.

During digestion certain kinds of food containing prd- teins, such as meat, egg white, milk casein, wheat gluten, etc., are split into many different substances.
