COMMISSIOXEIW AUTHORIZE
KOAD IMPROVEMENT.
The county commissioners have au
thorized the improvement of stretch
es in the county roads that needed
repair before the winter weather sets
in, and work upon it will commence
at once under direction of Road Su
pervisor BrinkerhoCt. The directors
of the Good Roads astoc iation waited
upon the commissioners Wednesday,
calling attention to numerous places
that could be made much better with
little expense, aud these are included
In the road to be improved, the es
timated cost of all the work being
1 1:000. The Improvement will con
sist in the gravelling and hard sur
facing of stretches that have already
been graded. These dirt roads are
excellent during tho summer, but
with the rains of winter would be
come soft and difficult for auto trav
el, and the object of the association
was to make the road good enough
that through travelers who desire to
take the Crescent City-Eureka route
need not hesitate because of the char
acter of the highway. A stretch of
road on Slate creek will be the big
gebt piece of improvement undertak
en, the estimate of cost for gravelling
that being $.",500. The road between
Waldo and Kerby will also be Im
proved, as will three-fourths of a
mile of the Holland road. These are
the only bad places on the Josephine
county end of the Crescent City road,
an, with their improvement the road
will be in perfect condition.
Other road work authorized by the
commissioners Include a piece on the
Williams valley road and three
fourths of a mile on the Oalice road
below Merlin. Mr. Brlnkerhoff will
start work without delay, and will
have all tho gravelling done before
the fall rains.
