and the lands here abouts have
advanced in price. All the in.
vestigators have money, il seems,
and the operators have the pay
rolls ready each pay day. Thus
it begins to look and sound good

it will he a Pearsite affair, but

Some Road Costs

A report of Frank Phelps left
at this Office on expense account
road work on the Lulbegrud road
since last July shows that the
amount spent under his supervi
sion totals $17.652 30. Of this
amount Sl3, 330.59 was for labor
and s4,321 II for material and
supplies. And this work, though
expensive as 1t seems, cost the
county less than the contract
work of Williams & Pitzer, which
if completed by them, would have
amounted to about $4,000 more
for the job.
