Repaint Highway Markers

Most of the counties in the state
have repainted their highway markers.
Most of the signs at the city and vii
lage limits bearing the name of the
city or village have been installed and
all of whom will be in by the end of
the seasons A few signs bearing
names of lakes and rivers have also
ben erected.
Contracts have been let for large
signs ten feet wide and twelve feet
high to be placed on trunk highways
at the state boundary showing a map
of the state and the entire state trunk
highway system in the colors and con-
ventions used on the pocket highway
map. 1t is hoped to have all these
signs in position by the end of the
season. As in many other develop
ments, Wisconsin is taking the lead
in this work.

The isle of Wight disease" was
discovered only ten years ago and has
practically wiped out bekeeping in

known in the United States and as a
result of the new legislation probably
