GEoLoGICAL SuRvEY oF GEoRGIA, ATLANTA, July 15, 1912.
To His Excellency, JosEPH M. BRowN, Governor, and Presir dent of the Advisory Board of the Geological Survey of Georgia. Sm: I have the honor to submit herewith a third report
on the Public Roads of Georgia, to be published as Bulletin No. 28, of this Survey.
Very respectfully yours, S. W. McCALLIE, State Geologist.

PREFATORY NOTE
In submitting this report on the public roads of Georgia to the public the writer wishes to express his thanks to the State Prison Commission for valuable assistance in the cooperative work of collecting data on the roads of the State. Special thanks are also due Capt. Goodloe H. Yancey, Secretary of the Prison Commission, who rendered invaluable aid in compiling the statistical data. In addition to the assistance here accredited, the writer wishes, furthermore, to express his gratitude to the various public road officials throughout the State for information concerning the public roads of their respective counties.
This report is the third report on the public roads of the State published by the State Geological Survey. The first report was issued in 1901 and the second in 1910. It is to be regretted that the statistical data which were collected by correspondence with the county road officials had to be estimated in many cases ; however, they are thought to be sufficiently accurate to give a fairly trustworthy idea of the general conditions of the public roads of the State.
It should be added that the mileage and cost of sand-clay roads, in some cases, can not be relied on, as the number of miles constructed multiplied by the cost per mile given, is more than the total amount of money expended.

Public Roads of Georgia
MILEAGE AND EXPENDITURES.
The statistical table of this report shows that the estimated public road mileage of the State of Georgia in 1911 was 83,986, which is an increase of 1,704 miles over the road mileage of 1909, the date of the last statistical road data published by this Department. The table also shows that during last year there were constructed in the State 35 miles of macadam road, 235 miles of road surfaced with gravel and chert, and 4,077 miles of road surfaced with sand-clay mixtures. These figures show that within the last two years there has been very rapid progress made in improving the roads of the State. Especially has this been true in regard to the construction of gravel and chert roads and sand-clay roads. In 1909, or only two years ago, the statistical road data showed that up to that date only 502 miles of gravel and chert roads and 3,421 miles of sand-clay roads had been constructed, whereas, in 1911 there were constructed 235 miles of grave] and chert road and 4,077 miles of sand-clay road. In other words, the total number of miles of gravel and chert roads constructed last year was nearly one-half the mileage of these roads previously constructed, and the sand-clay roads constructed exceeded the mile'age of this class of roads previously constructed by 656 miles.
Of the 146 counties of the State 116 employ convicts and 30 use statute or hired labor, the total number of convicts employed being 4,744.

'

'

..

The expenditures on public roads and bridges in 1911 were

$659,002 commutation tax and $1,770,697 property tax, making

a total money expediture of $2,504,699. To this sum should

be added $1,623,200, an estimated money value of convicts fur-

nished by the State together with the value of statute labor

of those counties not using ~convicts and those using both

convicts and statute labor. This makes a_grand total of road

expenditure last year of $4,127,899.

In comparing the total road mileage of the State with the

total estimated road expenditures it will be seen that each

mile of public road cost last year $49.15, or $1.58 per inhabi-

tant based on the census of 1910.
