ROADTHATNEEDS
TO Be IMPROVED

Who wants a haFd-surfaced road
between Baraboo and Reedsburg? The
earth road between Baraboo and Able
man was well maintained during the
season of 1918; particular attention
was given it late in the fall before
the freeze. Public-spirited citizens
helped in trying to keep the way pas
sable but in spite of all the pains
taken, during the winter and spring
the road became about the worst ever
and traffic, both teams and cars, stayed
off
There is no doubt that this road can
be kept in fine shape for 90Go of the
time during the summer, but all know
what to expect from about November
to. April Is each year.
OF what avail is sixteen miles Of
hard surfaced road between these two
cities when three and one-half miles
of the way is mud, MUD.
The people of the western and north
ern part of the county have right to
expect that some Of the money ex-
pended for roads, of which they pay
their just proportion, be placed where
it will benefit them the most.
Anyone who can reach Reedsburg
in a car could step over to the county
seat in about an hour at any time of
the year Of this 315 mile stretch was
covered with rock or gravel The
town of Excelsior, at the annual meet
ing April 1, made the Improvement of
this road possible this summer by vot-
