Bond Issue to be Voted Upon.

At the primary election Monday,
Askov will receive special ballot on
which to express their favor or dis
favor to the proposition of issuing
bonds in the amount of $500 for the
purpose of resurfacing and reshaping
the so-called loop-road through the
village. Those in favor of the inn
provement argue that the road lead
ing into the village from the west is
particularly dangerous and should be
widened out and resurfaced this sum-
mer so as to be reasonably safe; also
that the loss of one life is much cost
lier than the entire bond issue. Sec
ondly it is very desirable to have a
nice approach to the village from the
main highway, and of course when it
is once properly treated with black
top it will take many years before
there will be any maintenance cost.
1t is proposed to blacktop the loop
from the point where it leaves the
highway west of town and in through
Main street and to where it connects
with the highway again just north
of the creamery to make splendid
as we'll as a much needed improve
ment.
