lowest expense in years.

BOOSTS FOR GOOD ROADS
Miss Shetland, Kooehiohing superin=
tendent, Tells City Reality Men Of
Northern Minnesota Needs.
FAVORS AMENDMENTS 8 AND 8

Northern Minnesota's needs and
the benefits that will accrue to this
section of the state by the passage
of the constitutional amendments
providing for state forests on non-ag-
sricultural lands and the establish
ment Of a revolving fund for good
roads were explained to real estate
men Of Minneapolis by Miss Annie
Shetland at a meeting there Satur-
day. Miss Shetland is superintend-
ent of schools in Koochiching county
There is no question but that
there are hundreds and hundreds of
acres of land that is untillable, /" said
Miss Shetland The state OWNS
much of this. BY planting it to
trees the state will be assured of a
permanent income for it's school
fund. The Ninth amendment should
be passed.
Zone of the chief needs of north
ern Minnesota is roads. Without good
roads our schools are useless. The
children cant get to the schools. The
older people cannot use the school
buildings are community centers.
The revolving fund amendment will
help in the good roads movement in
that it will set aside sufficient money
for road work.
