AFTER JAN.

After January l A. J. Fem of this
city will no longer be a district en-
gineer, nor will he receive his pay
from the state, as at present. He will
be county superintendent of highways,
having been appointed to that posi-
tion at the last meeting of the board
Of county commissioners. He goes on
the county pay roll in January, his
salary to be paid monthly. The sala-
~ will be fixed at the January meet
ing of the board.
Owing to shortage in the state
funds for paying district engineers
the state commission has announced
that it will not pay their expenses any
longer and urged the counties to place
them on their pay roll. Several coun-
ties have combined in some cases and
will employ only one engineer.
