FLOYD COUNTY BUYS THE
BRIDGE ACROSS SANDY

The county of Floyd has bought the
bridge across the Big Sandy at Pres
tonsburg and hereafter it will be free
TO all. The sum paid is said TO have
been $4,000. The structure, owned,
by stock company, was paying
proposition. 1t cost $4,000 to bufln
ii. A movement was on foot looking
to the construction of a new bridge
from the C. & o. depot to a point di-
rectly opposite, and this may have had
something to do with causing the sale
of the old bridge.
Since the foregoing was written we
find the following in the Prestonspurg
Post:
at seems that the bridge company
has made the county officials price
of s26, 900 on the bridge and that the
county has taken until the 18th OF this
month to consider buying 1t and max
ing II free bridge at once. 1t would
be difficult to name a single act that
would mean more for the citizens OF
FLOYD and Prestonsburg."

FARMERS SHOULD PUT
IN COVER CROPS.

Now is the time for the farmer to
put in some cover crops, If he has not
already done so, and thereby retain
the fertility of his fields for next years
crops. Winter rains on bare ground
are sometimes as severe a strain on
the land as fairly good crop of corn
or wheat, Rye, barley or winter vetch
will prevent this washing and retain
the fertility for the future use of the
farmer. No bare spots should be per
mitted to go through the winter
