We feel safe, however in saying, that as *9011 as fodder ptilliing has been completed that the roads will be well worked: It was the l ut cut ion of the Board in the ai)riuj£ to i JC o| U t | l0 W ork of replacing the plank crossings on public road* with cul f«rt pipe, but in view of the fact that the County Msewment for 1897 was loo small to warrant the expenditure; it was thought best to postpone the work for awhile. Several bad rock* in the roads have been removed dutlng the year, the work ha* been well done and the cost for same we think reasonable. Finauve.
