Roads of County
Being Dragged by
Highway Workers

Many of the country roads of Vance
county have been dragged, some of
them two or three times, since the
winter broke, and some of them are
in much better condition, according to
those who have occasion to get about
considerably in the rural sections
There is much work yet to be done,
but highway crews are getting around
as rapidly as possible.
Two weeks of fair weather, with
breaks of only one or two half-days of
rain, have given the road forces a
good '-reak in their efforts to restore
theh ighways to normal condition.
The soil roads are responding to treat
ment but those that were of tar and
gravel construction, and which froze
and broke up badly during the many
hard freezes during the past three
months are still in very bad condition.
and may require re-paving before be-
ing in first class shape again, it is
believed.
