CO Banetin classes the scheme

But universal training is the

THE coUNTY'S PART

m HERE is misunderstand-
VI ing on the part of some
people as to the amount
of work a county has to do on
roadway in order to have it
nard surfaced by the state, in
the event the road bonds are
carried. The impression pre-
walls among some that the
county has to provide crush
ed rock or gravel foundation
Tor the roads. This is an err
ror. The county merely grades
the road and does not have to
provide the rock foundation
for the paving. Upon most of
the roads in Umatilla county
the expense of grading the dirt |
roads and providing necessary |
drainage would not be heavy. |
On our macadam highway be-
tween Pendleton and the state
line the expense to the county |
would be virtually nothing. AT
The same time the fact this
road already has a base for
paved road places it in position
o command first attention
rom the commission in the
event the bonds are voted.
Jmatilla county seems in po-
ition to derive very material
benefit from the state work in
he event the bonds are voted, /
his with comparatively small
expense to the county. /
