coat of Roads.

The cost of hard roads Is one OF the
points most frequently discussed and
Is one OF the most vital points. There
are many different kinds OF surfaces
available, some of which are so ex-
pensive as to he beyond consideration.
What Lawrence county should do is to
build hard roads that will get US out of
the mud and keep us out, but they
need not be OF the most expensive type
known Using State aid money we
shall be forced to build roads that will
come up 10 the standards of the State
department, and that is good enough,
The best basis of cost we know of
comes from Lawrence county engi-
neer who has been employed for the
last two or three years by the State
Roads department to supervise the
building of inter county seat roads in
the mountains of southeastern Ken
lucky (See Mr., Johnson's article in
this issue)
sS32,Sl0.00, without any national aid,
would. under this estimate, build three
OF these roads to the county line and
the other one TO Blaine town.
The Big Sandy news. [volume] (Louisa, Ky.) 1885-1929, 1919-12-19
Then For the Finish.

1t is the history of every county
that built any considerable mileage OF
hard roads that the people find 1t easy
to finish the job by extending the good
system to all main roads in the county.
This is only the beginning of the
greatest enterprise ever undertaken in
Lawrence. The increase in farm prod
ucts, poultry, and everything that goes
to market is so great that the in
creased wealth thus created takes care
of the enterprise The young men stay
ON the farms when they have good
roads over which they can go and come
with speed and without drudgery, and
when they can get their products to
market easily al any time. 1t is no
wonder the best of the young men
wade out of Lawrence county under
present conditions, say goodbye to
home and loved ones, and scrape off
the mud of the old county forever.
In addition to getting good roads for
nothing, think what it will mean to the
people in the county to have nearly or
quite million dollars spent In their
midst. Every citizen. including the
women and children, will get some of
this money unless they are too lazy
and shiftless to work or to have any
thing TO sell,

Roads Too Bad for
Turkeys to Travel

A farmer living in Lawrence county
was in town this week and said for the
first time in his life he is going to vote
for bonds to build good roads. He has
lot of turkeys at home and the roads
are so bad he can neither drive them
nor haul them to market, He says the
loss he will sustain on these turkeys
by falling to get them TO market will
be enough to pay road taxes for ten
years. This man does not live on
either of the four roads proposed in
the present bond issue, but is at least
five miles away from the closest. But
he knows 1t is only question of a
short time after road building is start
ed until his locality will be reached
also. because that is going to be true
of all parts of the county. The longer
the start is delayed the longer all OF
you will be in getting roads. This is
thought to be the last chance for sew
eral years. 45

Four roads are to be built at once,
as this Is provided for In the petition
and the Court order and can not be
departed from These four roads lead
TO the county lines of Martin. Johnson,
Morgan and Boyd. The Boyd road will
go BY way Of East Fork for n consid-
erable distance and win later serve also
as the inter county seat road to Carter
county AS the State furnishes most
OF this money the roads must start
from a county seat and follow a prac-
teal route toward the county seat of
an adjacent county.
The petition and court order says
this vote is to be taken on bonds for
the specific purpose of constructing
four inter-county seat hard or paved
roads, each OF said roads to have the
