 The youth was buried a week ago to-day--the day he was to have been married. He was Mil- ford c. smith.

ROAD MEN WILL JOIN WAR
ON RECKLESS DRIVERS

Hereafter it will pay to watch the
cratic laws and toe the mark strictly
when passing either of the Nicollet
&sounty road maintenance men, C. A.
Young Of St. Peter and Roy Johnson
aof Lafayette, according to the ST..
Peter Herald. Both men have been
clothed with new authority, being
sworn in as deputy sheriffs by Sheriff
John A. johnson.
The object is to give them authori-
1xy to arrest violators of the traffic
and highway laws when they meet
chem, and as they are on the county's
roads continuously during the sum-
xneq months, they will serve as eff
Gient motorized highway police.
The Herald states that cit is a
move that merits repetition in other
counties, giving the county two pat
rolmen without extra cost and brings
the protection which the state police
exercise to county roads as well"

GLAD TO COOPERATE
Highway Officials Plan System OF
Roadside Weed Control

That the Minnesota Highway De-
partment would be glad to do all they
can in cooperating with roadside
seeding for weed control was express
ed by C. L. Motl, maintenance super
intendent, ST. Paul. The standard
grass mixture, he Said, would be al
falfa, blue grass, red clover, white
clover, red top, alsike and timothy.
Other highway men who have visit
ed County Agent Nate H. Bovee with
a view to working out plan Of seed
ing and grading roadsides were ]. F.
O'Meara, Window, maintenance sup
erintendent; Hugo Erickson, resident
engineer, Walnut Grove; w. E.
Chard, division engineer, and F. o.
Nelson, maintenance superintendent.
Tentative plans coll for back slop-
ing both sides of the road to do way
with the steep banks. This slope
would be gradual and run ten feet in
side the fence line. Grass seeding
would extend from the edge of the
highway through the ditch and ten
feet inside the fence.
1t is believed that a standard sys-
tenn of seeding roadsides could be
worked out in Minnesota with the
cooperation of farmers and the high
way department which would assist
appreciably in holding weeds down.
