Eight new faces appeared upon the
1922 Board of Supervisors. Jewell of
Hillsboro has been a member of the
board many years ago. The seven
members without previous experience
were Nilsestuen of Christiana, Skolos
of Coon, Jones of Greenwood, Crook
of Kickapoo, Wood of Stark, Stein
metz of Union, Creeden of LaFarge.
The oldest board member was Dave
Buchanan of Viroqua third ward, the
youngest Skolos of Coon. In point of
board experience, Vice Chairman C..
J. Eastman was the daddy of them all.
From the standpoint of altitude, the
scrap was between Mr.. Eastman and
that little short fellow from Harmony
John E. Lepke.
Elections by the board were as fol-
lows; H. A. Tulloch reelected Asylum
trustee, Mrs. j. o. Anderson reelected
poor farm trustee, w. G. Williams re-
elected as member of public school
committee, Alex Ristow reelected
Highway Commissioner, Mrs. r. II.
Nustad reelected on county health
committee. Three new members were
elected on the county agricultural COM
mittee-John Amberg of Hillsboro,
John r. Lepke Of Harmony and Victor
Anderson of Coon.
The Censor has treated at length
the me tier of the proposed Vernon
County Park elsewhere in this issue.
The committee selected was Eastman,
Gardner, Bailey, Broadhead and Mrs.
c. J. Smith.
An important subject brought up at
the board meeting was that of opening
up all the shale pits in Vernon county
and using this material for road sur
facing next year Shale makes prac-
tieally an all weather road as those
who have travelled the several short
patches on No. IL near Readstown will
agree, and may help wonderfully to
solve our road problem at very little
expense.
During the session, the Board made
two complete inspection trips-one
east and one west--particularly en-
bracing the county trunks and new
pieces of construction. At Hillsboro
che Board gratefully acknowledges the
fine reception and entertainment Civ
en- them by the Commercial Club.
These are the outstanding features
of the session. The regular grind of
business, common to every session.
will appear in the official board pro-
ceedings issued later.
