OF the Lincoln highway passing thru

The highway commission had ap-
proved all of the county and township
road systems by March /, Dena Marston
said. This places between $4,000 and
$4,000 miles in the county road system,
by which all towns and cities will be
connected by improved roads and 10000
miles in the township road systems.
The chairman says that the town
ship trustees will have 80 per cent
more money to work with this year
than they had las. year. therefore more
work can be expected.
The placing of fifteen miles Of road
to permanent grade. in addition to
the placing of permanent culverts ana
bridges will be considered good
seasons work in each county this year.

this goal in view.

If this measure carries, Dean Marston
says II will be an important factor in
