Prominent Farmer Urges Mountain Road

Editor Courant: The remarks
made by the Fargo Forum
which appeared in the last
issue of the Courant regarding
the possibility Of obtaining
state aid for building wagon
roads through the Turtle
Mountain dis trict, should GER
tainly meet with approval,
especially from Bottineau and
Rolette counties, and the peo-,
pie of said counties should
urge their state representatives
and senators to cooperate in
an effort to secure such
legislation as soon as possible.
This would not only open up a
great tract of fertile land, but
such graded roads would act as
fire breaks and help to protect
the timber in this district from
being destroyed by forest fires.
There is considerable
amount of timber yet in the
Turtle Mountain district and if
given proper protection and
conservation would not only
supply it's own needs, but also
the surrounding prairie coun-
try with such as rough lum-
Der, fence posts and fire wood
for years to come.-Olaf John.
