Need for Gravel Roads and Pike Tax Payoff Argument
The article argues for funding gravel roads via a ten to twenty cent per acre tax for five to six years. It contrasts pikes with mud roads and canals, noting faster travel, better market access, higher grain prices by 3-5 cents per bushel, and increased land values along pikes. It cites Union county as an example where land near a pike rose from $20 to $60 per acre after construction, with higher assessments fronting the road. It appeals to farmers to consider public-minded support and parallels railroads as essential.
