COURT lNSPECTs HIGHWAYS
New Style of Grader Added to Road
Making Equipment.


county Judge Ed F. Coad and Com
lnlssioners Riddell and Petre took a
'o-mile jaunt over the roads of the
county last Wednesday in DR.. A. B.
olarpuck's automobile. They went to
Mil Creek, near the location Of the
sheridan Lumber Company's sawmill,
Where they inspected bridge that is
70 be taken out. 1t is about 175 feet
iohg' and will be replaced by road
CUT around the sidehill at that point.
Dlai Tate has charge of the work.
From there they went to the Blair
prldge, which is to be repaired by
setting the supporting piers on con-
crete foundation, rising to the mean
height of the water.
Another point visited was 'the
grade" which is southwest of Will
iamina, and which they reached by
way of Sheridan.
After an exhibition of its capabil-
ltles as road machine, the court has
bought new King grader, which was
demonstrated on about a quarter of a
mile of road near the Uglow place last
tuesday. With an attachment known
as "scarifier," the rough macadam
there was torn up and properly re-
graded, the power being furnished
by the gasoline road roller. The court
was well pleased with the work done,
and considered the machine well
worth the $500 asked for it. County
Judge Coad said he was certain that
1T could do % per cent more work
than any of the graders now owned
by the county. 1t was taken out on
the Guthrie road the next day, where
it dressed up two miles of eight-foot
in an easy days work, being
to the gasoline roller, which
is not noted for it's f1eetness.
