Tho county commissioners believe
that county rend building can bo dono
hotter', moro quickly ami much cheap-
or by tho county owning a tractor on-
glno nnd grading outfit, and to this
ond they havo been investigating
tractor engines for a week past. They
havo visited several places whore
tractor-propelled graders hayo been at
work, and in each instance they havo
been very favorably Impressed. 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. This would result In being
ablo to do much more grading each
year at a greatly reduced cost, nnd it
Is believed will pnavc a solution of
tho better roads problem.
