Apparently r-a!'fclng fully that the
country as a wled s is Intensely inter

county court hav: been putting In a
good deal of time of late In formulat
ing a plan for permanent road work.
The present court was not organized
for business las' year owing to liti

spring when tlmo for all preliminary
Nad work had i.lmost expired and It
was with some difficulty that even l

Beginning this 5 ear in plenty it

the court Is taking no chances on ma

common labor will be contracted for
Just so long as it comes up to a cer

according to the court's plan, constant
traveling back and forth across this

making ditches and crowning the
