/ am informed that the county spent

want to make a suggestion in q friend
ly way. We have six or eight mules
fed all the year,at a heavy expense.
1 viii venture to say that they do not
work on the roads more than 100 days
out Of the whole year We have a
man employed for stated salary for
The year, whether he is engaged on the
road' or not. Now I think this whole
scheme can be improved on. We had
dirt roads lons before the railroad was
ever thought OF and yet the railroads
are q hundred years ahead Of Us IN
their way If keeping up roads Let
us follow their example and let our
county roads by contract i'm sections Of
5 OF 10 miles each TO farmers TO work
