Trail Repaired

Redheld Press: Last Friday a
party from Redfeld graded and re-
paired the portions of the White
and yellow Trail between Redfeld
and Miller. Considerable work had
been done on this road last fall, in
the wav of removing the rock and
otherwise repairing the road but
the summer had left several bad
Says and mud holes. These werc
filled, and the entire trail now pre-.
sents an unbroken appearance of
good road. Several miaor spots
yet need attention, and it was the
plan Of the Redfield enthusiasts to
nix these 40 but the cold weather of
the past few days has rendered this
impractical.
The work done last Friday had
been arranged for sometime and as
committee of the Commercial Club,
Ed Erickson visited several of the
farmers living along the trail, in
terested them in the work and on
the day that the Redfeld Booste s
turned out they supplied teams for
use in the work. The two sags that
were G. AIDED have been in need of
attention for some time and now
that they are repaired it IS expected
that this trail will prove more popu-
lar than ever as a thoroughfare for
automobile travel.
