ROAD GRADING CONTEST MAY S.

NOAD GNAD1NU OOIN LO1 WA ~
The county commissioners have
been holding conferences with the sup
ervisors of the various townships of
the county with reference to graveling
roads this week. They have made ar
rangements with the supervisors of
Burlington township, whereby the Of
ficials Of that township will expend the
sum Of $500 in graveling their roads
this season provided the county will
contribute like amount for the same
purpose. Eureka, Mckinley, Surrey
and Denmark townships have already
indicated desire to gravel their high
ways and it is only question of time
before practically every township of
Ward county will get into the game.
May 5th has been set as the day
when the contest between the various
road graders will take place. The
Russell Grader Co., the Austin West
ern Grader Co. and the Adams Grader
Co. have signified their intention to
enter their machines. The only ex-
pense to which the county will be put
will be simply making provision for
the power necessary to draw the
graders. For this purpose several Of
the tractor companies will undoubted-
ly be only too willing to provide the
tractors. Each contestant will grade
one mile of road to be selected by the
commissioners. These stretches will
be as nearly uniform relative to ma
ture of the soil and topography as
possible and will no doubt be adjacent
to the city. It is expected that a
meeting of the road overseers of the
county will be held at the same time
in order to afford those having the i'm
mediate supervision of the county
roads the opportunity of observing
the methods pursued by those enter
ing the contest.
