RIGHT GOOD ROADS
Credit to Whom Credit is Due for
Good Road Making.

Two roads leading into Mineral
Point are a credit to the men who
make them. One is the Galena road
from Schaaf's mill into town, and the
other is the road from Phil Hewitt s,
which joins the Galena road at the
Oak Park Cheese factory. Many visi
tors at the Mineral Point fair, who
came from the south and west, spoke in
very high praise Of these roads. They
are the result of the skillful and pains
taking use Of the road grader and the
Kingdrag. Men who came from as far
distant as Dubuque said that they had
not seen their equal in country roads,
and that in their present condition they
were better than the best macadamized
city street. The best Of it is that,
graded as they are to the proper width
and properly drained, the cost Of their
has been reduced to the
These roads present an
example for both city and country road
makers to follow.
