$4,000 Road Money
The county has received $4,000
more under the Green law, which is
to be divided, $1,000 each to the fol-
lowing townships: York, Windsor,
Malta, Center and Meigsville town
ships. This is the last money the
county will receive under the Green
law, until the legislature meets and
makes an appropriation. This
makes $4,000 the county has re-
ceiyed under the Green law. The
other townships receiving $1,000
each are Morgan, Marion, Homer
and Union, and the work is practi-
cally completed in those townships,
so far as the $1,000 goes. Here in
Morgan township the money was
used to improve the south river
road leading from the corporation
line to the county home, which road
has been graded and graveled.
