70 the Hon. Board of Supervisors,
Lincoln County. Gentlemen: l re-
spectfully present this my semi-an-
nual report of roads and bridges in
Dist. No. /. The gravel roads have
oeen very much improved since my
last report and the work of main
tenance is going on very satistactor-
lily. / feel safe in saying that If we
ian get additional motor trucks in
our county it will be only a ques-
lion of short time when all the
public roads of Lincoln county can
De put in first class condition. Most
1f my bridges are in good condition
and those that are not are now re-
eeiving attention, on account of not
having teams, have not been able
TO more than keep my earth roads
n passable condition. However
expect to get my roads and bridges
in first class condition in the near
future. Respectfully, S. P. Oliver,
Dist. No. /.
1t is ordered by the Board that a.
Dove report be approved and adopt

men: ! beg to make this my End
quarterly report Of the roads, bridg-
es. etc, in Dist. No. 2, for the year
1919. All roads have been graded
one time and some twice but 1t
seems that practically all this work
has been of very little benefit
rains since last october. ! have,
however, If the weather permits to-
put these in better condition in the
near future. There are quite num-
Der of bridges that are urgently in
need of repair but we are now as we
have been for some time, handicap
ped on account Of failure to get lun-
Der. Respectfully submitted, VIM. H.
Furr, M. B, S. Dist No. 2.
1t is ordered by the Board that a.
bove report be approved and adopt
ed.
Road Report of Dist No. 5.-To
the Hon. Board of Supervisors. Gem
tlemen: make this. my report Of
roads, bridges and culverts in my
District. ! have been unable to In
spect all roads on account Of short
ness Of time since adjournment Of
June meeting, but hnd roads In
spected generally badly washed on
account of tremendous heavy rains
in portions Of Dist for last so days.
In fact amount of bridge, culvert
and road work needed to be done inn
mediately could not be done with
present amount of help in 90 days.
We are try ing to do good roads
bridge work with our road force. We
have 8 large bridges to rebuild on
McCalPs Greek, also one ON Buie's
MIL Greek; have had change of
road west of Caseyyille to make but
could not change road on account
Of ground so soft and boggy until
teams could not stand UP on right
of way. In fact parts Of road are
in about the same condition as our
crops are In west of District caused
from the continuous rains that Is
ruined. Respectfully, c. c. Cole.
