ROADS TO BE KEPT CLEARED OF
SNOW DRIFTS.

I It was decided at the annual meeting
of the county commissioners which was
held yesterday, to strive to keep coun.
ty roads cleared of snow drifts, which
frequently tie up traffic. :: A hundred
yard drift will sometimes render prac-
tically useless miles of road, which it is
equally important to have passable
during the wintertime as it is during
the summer. :.
; The matter was brought to the atten-
tion Of the county board by T. G. Cord
on and W. E. Olson acting as commit
tee from the Board Of Commerce. An
experiment is to be made hR the county
officials to maintain roadsRwhere snow
has drifted by use of the county's cat
erpillar tractor with which lit is propos-
ed to pack down the snow.

now making changes whereby the water
power which is used for operating the

The installing Of electric power is a
big improvement: With the old water
power all the machinery in the mill was
operated with but three units, meaning
that much machinery had to be kept in
motion although idle while other ma
chinery was being used. With the
electric power a number of units will
be used so that each machine can be
operated separately. The pulp grind
