COUNTY BRIDGES
TO Be REBUILT
Board of Supervisors viii Look Over
All Of These Structures and
Decide Which Ones
It VIII Be.
TO NOT EXCEED FUNDS
Board Members Will Get Estimates
Tax Hearing Was Only Of
Preliminary
Nature.

A number OF the bridges in Lee
county are to be replaced this spring
The board has made no definite deci
sion as to the number or location OF
these, but within the next two
months will consider all OF the
bridges which need repairs. One
thing is certain, according to Chair
man Maxwell OF the board, and that
Is that the bridge funds will not be
exceeded Only the bridges in the
most need Of repairs viii be touched
and this work will be done only afte,
careful consideration.
The board expects to look over the
bridge situation through all Of the
districts Estimates will be received
from the county engineer, and then
the board will be able to cut their
garment according to the cloth. The
board members are not going to ex.
coed the allowance for such work.
The board Is also considering the
question OF oiled roads. OIL on the
roads is principally for the purpose
of keeping the dust down, the board
members say, and an oiled road will
be cut up Just as badly in wet wealth
er as VIII any other road. The board
will take action on this later.
The tax hearing which was held
here Friday was simply preliminary
hearing, it was stated by the board
members The hearings will be con-
tinued and there will be other mat
ters in connection with this to be
looked into before a final hearing.

imbeded itself there, while the man
was trying to iirt 1t into the stream.
Unable to remove It, and utterly ex-
