are among those who appreciate
rural delivery and are willing to
make life as easy as possible for
the carrier.. They have been

ing out place at their mail boxes,
so that there will be but little
mud. He also reports some good
work being done in the "Uncle
Billy Burns" district, where some
of the steep pitches have been
cut down and fills made and about

on top. There is about a quarter
of a mile of this kind of road in
the Bridgeport neighborhood. It
is what we need more than any
other one thing. Plenty of
crushed rock judiciously applied
will make fine roads in the Luck
iamute country and then there
will be no better country on earth.
