We do not know the extent of the damage
to roads and bridges in Carroll by the recent
storms and floods, but it would be well for the
County Commissioners to examine into the
matter and provide for repairing it at once.
The Commissioners of Cecil, where the dam
age last week amounted to $4,000, met on
Monday and made a special levy of 25 cents
on the 500 to restore roads and bridges.
The county will save expense by making re-
pairs at once, and the same may be true in
Carroll. A stitch in time may save nine, and
we call the Commissioners attention to the
matter The levy of one cent extra for roads
and bridges will yield about $1,000. This
levy was made before the floods, and if addi-
tional money is needed the levy should be
made Immediately. There is no economy in
putting off such matters. What might be ac-
complished with $4,000 this year, if post
poned might require $4,000 next, and dam
age suits might largely increase the amount.

RnssyILLE. June 30. 1884

RossvILLE, June 30, 1884.
DEAR ADVOCATE Perhaps you will be in
terested to hear from our village-Rossville,
Baltimore county, Md. Our agriculturists
are wide awake this season. Messrs. J. NJ.
Gillespie and Wilson Shaffer, of ''Back River
Neck hauled corn to the Baltimore market
cut on the 25th inst. This was the first in the
Baltimore market from Maryland, and the
same day some arrived from South Carolina.
The corn sold for fifty cents per dozen. Many
of our farmers are now hauling corn to market
The above named gentlemen also supplied the
city market with peas on the 25th of May.
We forgot to say that Mr.. Wilson Shaffer is
formerl y from good old Carroll county, and
also nephew of Messrs. Lewis and Simon
Shaffer, of Cranberry Valley, who are we'll
known farmers. The Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad extension to Philadelphia progresses
rapidly. Likely it will require about year
yet to complete this great road. There are
many improvements in progress in our neigh
borhood now. We are 10th to say that the
wild ducks of our beautiful rivers have flown
north to spend the summer. We should have
said in the beginning that Rossville is in the
18th district, southeastern part Of Baltimore
county, on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad, miles from Baltimore
city. ).
