The cost of oiling Troy's streets this
spring was $685. GA, and it was neces-
sary for Mayor Killam to call on the
one hundred contributors for extra
donation of 20 cents each, to meet all
expenses. There were 10,164 gallons
of oil used, which cost SO. 80 per hun
dred gallons. Some people think this
is a lot of money, and we admit that
it is, but if we are not bothered with
dust this summer, the money will be
we'll spent.-Troy Free Press.
The Telephone Company will soon
begin the erection of a trunk line from
Poplar Bluff to Willow Springs which
will make the connection between
this section and southwestern part of
the state much shorter and conse-
quently cheaper. If any one here in
our county should wish to phone to
the southwest now their message
would have to go via st. Louis and
Springfield. The proposed new line
will fill a"much needed and long-felt
want. "-Centerville Outlook.
The Ladies' Social Club held its final

l., B. P. Wigs, of st. Louis, Deputy
f State Game Warden, who was in the
county a few days recently, reported
!. to Prosecuting Attorney Benham that
he had secured evidences of dynamit-
ing in local streams against four men
and five merchants for selling dyna-
! mite illegally. He did not ask for
warrants for the arrest of the persons,
: but said he would later. We believe
every person who fishes in the local
streams would be glad to see a stop put
to dynamiting for fish. This kills all
the fish and the nan who does it gets
, but few of them-Farmington News.
