the State line to the Buffalo canalt
the part of the highway passing
through Holly. A new cement
bridge over Horse Creek in town
IS included in the contract to be
let The Trail will be Strengthened
by the State Highway Commission,
so as to avoid one turn, by running
the Trail straight north of Model
Dairy for two miles before the west
turn is made. This change will also
bring the trail nearer to gravel beds
and be an easier road to work and
keep in repair.
1t is to he hope dthat the con.
tract may fall into local hands so
rs to employ, as far as possible,
men from this locality. There will
be an expenditure of about 100000,
mostly for labor and this money
should be kept at home. Work
