 From the point where we hit Bare foot and Rustler's park we can easily go anywhere on top of the mountain to other parks on an eight percent grade or less.
 Timber Near Shaws
 Near Shaw's ranch we begin to get in timber, and from there to the top of the mountain the scenery is unsurpassed in Cochise county, more especially, from the point where we cross from Pine canyon into Pinery at which point out line is several hundred feet above the bottom of the canyon.
 "In addition to this road touching one of the most beautiful playgrounds to be found in this state. it also makes accessible to market some for ty million feet of lumber as estimated by the forest. reserve.

 Near .Shaw's ranch we enter the Chiricahua national forest; it is pos sible for us to receive federal aid through the forest reserve in con structing this part Of our road, which covers all of the heavy work.

is known locally as Downing's pass into Pinery canyon, and which is four and one-half miles from the top of the mountain. We reach the top of the mountain at an elevation of $500 feet, and at the edge of Barefoot and Rustler's park.
 Maximum Grade 17 Miles
 For the first r miles we have a maximum grade of three percent. and the next two and one-half miles is on a straight eight percent; the balance On an eight per cent or less. All of the cury ature being very light for the first IT miles. and the balance meet ing with government requirements.
 We have all the location made, and it s hard to say just at this time what the total cost of this road will be, but I think it can be built for something like ninety to one hundred thousand dollars. The grade is all easy. likewise the curves. with one or two exceptions, at which places ii is planned to widen curves and put heavy rails on the outer edge.

 Regarding the proposed road over the -Chiricahua mountains, County Engineer Smyth says:
 Our survey Of this proposed road begins at a point four miles east of Light on what is known as the Light Rock Creek road. and, runs in north erly direction for four and one-half miles; here we turn east and run close to what is known as the Shaw ranch, which is close to the mouth of Pine canyon. running up Pine can yon five and one-half miles beyond Shaw's ranch, crossing through what

In addition to this one team and three men work cd with the caterpillar outfit cutting out dps. ditches, grading approaches 10 ranches and roads leading off of the new work. all of which has been done for $250 to $500 per mile, which is considered the minimum cost for suth work. This part of Central high way is in better condition with bet ter drainage protection than it has ever been n. and has crossings grad cd, or bridges built to each ranch by which it passes. All of this work follows the surface of the ground, or is what is termed surface grade, and t is for this reason that we are able to do it at the cost given.
 Breakwater at Douglas
 The county has jdst completed road a little less RIan two miles in length runnine north and south along the east city limits\ of Douglas, from the internat ationsl boundary line to the government railroad spur, at cost Of about sS0C0. This is considered good piece of road work, having heavy surface of calcite on it., it serves a long felt want as a break, water for the city Of Douglas This road and the borrow pit along its east side is so constructed that all drainage from 15tb street south will be diverted across the international line from 18th street north.
 Ten Bridges BuiN
 In various parts of the county dur ing the rast two years the county has built ten bridges of such size as to be worthy of mention. besides nulner- ous smaller structures All of these bridres have been built to the full width o1 the road, most of them be- ing twenty feet in width. In addition to this several of the old bridges have been refloored and foundation repairs made.
 Our tentative program for the pres ent fiscal year is outlined as follows:

Tennessee Lumberman Talks Of Ris
Successful Use Of Black raught
for Colds and Headaches. h

Jamestown. Tenn.-"I have used
Thedford's Black Draught for years, In
fact it is the only liver medicine that
does me any good" says Mr.. L. A.

this place. "When was single, used
1t for headaches. and especially IL ]
get cold and feel feverish, I take q
good dose of Black-Draught, and 10
sets me right.
Since l have been married, have
used 1t In my family, and never have
found its equal for torpid liver or dis
arranged stomach, especially with
children. Z can recommend Black
Draught and gladly do So"
Every member of the family occar
sionalfy needs the assistance thas
Black. Draught can give, in helping to
cleanse the system and relieve or pre-
vent the troubles that come from Q
lazy. torpid liver.
II your liver is not doing It's duty,
you may suffer with headache, consti-
patton, biliousness, indigestion, etc.
Unless relief is obtained. serious aick'
