$1,000 ROAD GRADER IS PURCHASED FOR THE COUNTY
Judge Hill has purchased a very fine road grader for the county, at a cost of $1,000. This grader will be used on the public roads of the county and pulled by the big 120 h. p tractor. The purchase of this road building machine was made in response to a public demand for improved road conditions throughout the entire county.
