!0000 ROADS NOTES.
The Advance has received the report
of the Provincial Overseer of Iligh-
ways for 1904, and we present a few of
the interesting facts it contains, for
the' benefit of our readers;—.
The total length of road in Ontario
amounts to 00,000 miles. This does
not include streets of towns or cities,
but the country roads only, maintain-
ed by townships and county councils,.
The county council of Bruce main.
tained 1.33 bridges, There are now
about 30 steel bridges and about 25
road graders in the county.
The total number of miles of road in
each township of Bruce is as follows ;
Saigon, 140 miles, 104) of which are
gravelled ; Bruce, 170 miles in all, with
110 gravelled ; Arran, 120 in all, with
100 gravelled ; Atnabel, 142 exiles of
road, the mileage gravelled not given;
Elderslie, 140 miles, 70 gravelled ; Kin-
cardine, 100 miles, 100 gravelled; Gree•
nock, 120 miles, 75 per cent gravelled.
In Kinloss, statute labor is commut-
ed in six divisions at 50 cents a day,
there being _one commissioner for the
commuted districts. The township
hires a grader. A bonus of 30 per cent
is given towards the constructions of
wire fences where it is considered they
will be a benefit.
Statute labor has now been done
away with in 127 townships, or more
than 25 per cent. of the townships of
the province by a system of commuta-
tion, or, in some cases, the statute la-
bor roll is abolished, and a special rate
levied with the ordinary township
rates. There are various differences
in detail, but the general plan is to ap-
point an overseer for the township,
under whom all the work is perform-
ed, subject to the directions of the
Council.
County systems are aided by the
Provincial Government to the extent
of one-third of the entire cost of pro-
duction, the counties which have adop-
ted this plan being Wentworth, Sirn-
coe, Lanark, Oxford, Lincoln, Wel-
lington and Hastings. Thus under
the Highway Improvement Act, coun-
ty councils covering 20 per cent, of the
Province have adopted county sys-
tems, taking over 1,624 guiles of road,
and expending thereon in the years
1903 and 1004, nearly half a million
dollars.
In Huron County the county council
maintains bridges of 20 feet span and
over, on all boundary lines. An engi-
neer, paid by salary, supervises all
county work. Bridges are about 100
in number, and are being re -built with
steel and concrete. The county is re-
markable for the fact that not one of
the townships has commuted or abol-
ished statute labor. Gravel is, as a
rule, plentiful and is fairly well distri-
buted ; but broken stone has been used
to a slight extent. Concrete is very
largely used th.'oughout the county
for culverts and small bridges. There
were 13 road graders in use in 1004.
Huron County has 2,109 miles of road,
as follows ; Ashfield, 189 miles ; Col-
borne, 125 miles. 50 gravelled ; Goder-
ich, 156 utiles ; Grey, 180 miles, nearly
all gravelled ; Hay, 110 miles, 30 gra-
velled ; Howick, 145 miles, all gravel-
led ; Hallett, 135 miles, nearly all gra-
velled ; llelCillap, 120 miles, nearly all
gravelled ; Morris, 120 miles, 80 gra-
velled ; Stanley, 112 miles, nearly all
gravelled ; Stephen, 170 miles, 140 gra-
velled ; Tuckersmith, 127 miles ; Turn -
berry, 87 miles ; Usborne, 126 miles ;
East Wawanosh, 86 miles ; West Wa-
wanosh, 120 utiles, nearly all gravelled.
In five of the townships there is either
none gravelled or else no record was
sent to the department.
Toll roads seem to be steadily disap-
pearing in the Province, although
there yet remains 246 utiles of them.

We are called upon this week to
record the death of Finlay McLennan

in Lochalsh. Sincere sympathy is
felt for his daughters, who kindly
nursed him during his long illness.
Oscar Rogers, Clinton, has assumed
the principalship of U. S. S. No. 5 at
Anburn ; Miss Sclater returns as as-
sistant for the remainder of the year.
Miss Aylesworth of Howick township
has taken her position at No. 9, Base

The Reeves of West Wawanosh and
Hallett are to expend about $75 in job
work at the west end of Auburn vil-
lage. From Riddell's corner down
past the bridge will be graded and
gravelled, seventy loads being re-
quired. At the culvert twenty-seven
and one-half feet of 18 inch cement
tile will be used, work to begin in
about ten days.
The new steel bridge over the Eigh-
teen Mile River on the gravel road
near Laurier postoffice, and about two
miles from the village of Amberley,
is now nearing completion and will be
open for traffic in a week or two. It
is a solid and well-built iron structure,
and rests on two concrete abutments
which rise to a perpendicular height
of over twenty feet, constructed by C.
Barbour, of Wingham. The bed of
the river just re runs through a
deep gorge. It is never very deep at
this season of the year but during the
floods of the spring and fall is a rag-
ing torrent. The length of the span
is ninety-seven feet.
The magnificent Roman Catholic
church at Kingsbridge is nearing
completion, and it will be ready for
the formal dedication about the end
of September next. The stained glass
windows, numbering some two dozen,
are now ready for placing and are an
admirable piece of work. The floor
space in the body of the church will
have two side aisles and one centre
aisle, with pews eighteen feet long,
and will have a seating capacity of
over 600. The pews are to he of oak,
of handsome design, and the entire
edifice will be heated by 3 furnaces in
the basement. The congregation is
congratulated on this grand and noble
structure, which will be a lasting
memorial to their generosity for gen-
erations to come, and, although it has
necessarily cost a very large sum of
money, the prospects are that it will
start practically free of debt,
