There is an article Ia the warning for
town meeting 10 see whether the town will
vote TO have all the highway taxes collect
ell in money aud by whom to be expended.
The tax voted by the legislature is twenty
cents u paid in labor aud fifteen II paid IN

cents in the hands Of experienced road
workers would accomplish much more
than twenty cents worked III the manner
1t is often done. but great many people
prefer TO pay their taxes in labor even If
IL does not amount to as much as far as
repairing roads is concerned.
