Each tho w-nctors wero of a different mako nnd tho commissioners will tako one moro trip to seo tho work of still another make. Those grading outfits cost about threo thblusnnd dollars, but tho amount of work tljey can do a really astounding. Tho idea of tho commls- soners Is to purchase an outfit nnd place It in tho hands of a competent man who will use the outfit In any part Hi tho county where grading Is required.
