tieipated that he would arrive in Salem
before they would be ready.

Of an objeet-lesson road at an early
date and at economical cost"
To the foregoing letter Judge Scott
replied to Mr.. Page yesterday as fol-
lows:
"In reply TO your letter Of April %,
will say that 1 called up the express
company, which informed me that the
survey would reach you about the time
that you wrote your letter to me per-

TO make it sO.'
1t is the hope Of Judge Scott that the
government representatives may arrive
here as early this month as possible for
the making of this piece Of objeet-lessoa
road work for three reasons: 1t is the
most favorable season Of the year for
good road building; it is the best time
of year to obtain the volunteer help
necessary in the success Of the expert
ment, as there is always a spell in May
when the farmers can spare a little
time. the spring work being done and
the summer work not yet begun. The
latter consideration also makes the third
reason-that it will be the best time to
bring large crowds Of people together
10 view the scientific road building and
study it for use In their own neigh
borhoods.
