Work on the highways has nearly
closed for the present season. Mr..
Weld tells US that this road district
has put on to the highways this sea-
son about nine hundred loads of
chrushed rock and a thousand yards
of gravel, including the gravel used
for purposes of bringing up the streets
to grade. The crusher has worked TO
perfection in every respect, and has
made an average of sixty loads of
road material every day of its running
time. AS some of the work has been
unusually heavily coated it may not
be amiss to state that the amount of
material made by the crusher this sea.
son would if applied as was done on
the South Fork road, which has prov
ed very satisfactory, have made full
mile of road. The amount actually
made being about half a mile. The
cost of the roads made by the crusher
on the basis of the South Fork road
is about three dollars per rod on an
average haul OF half mile; less
haul making considerable difference
in the expense. The roads are prov
ing very satisfactory and generally
wearing down very smoothly and with
even tracks.

Two citizens of this place recently
saw lot of young toads having a high
old frolic in puddle of water near
the residence of G. Manser. They
would jump over one another, grapple
and roll over in the water. and indulge
in as many antics as lot of kittens.
Occasionally one would hop upon a
stick and attempt to make an anti-mo-
nopoly speech; but the majority were
evidently in sympathy with the rings,
for they would Chamber up and drag
him ANONYMOUSLY down into the
mire. Altogether, it was novel
sight, and first instance that ever
came to our knowledge of toads show
