INSPECTED BAD PLACE ON
THE ROCK BLUFFS ROAD
Stale Engineer Johnson, County
Commissioner Pitz and County At
torney A. G. Cole yesterday after
noon were out inspecting a bad place
on the Rock Bluffs road near the
farm of Major Hall to determine just
what, would be the best means of
dealing with the proposition. A
deep ditch has been worn by washing
which crosses the roadway twice in
a short distance of each other ant
has formed quite a ditch on the land
of .Mr. Hall. It has been thought
that if a small ditch was constructed
on the opposite side of the roadway
that it might result in the country
being able to check further washing
cf the old ditca and permit of its
being filled up and save further cost
to the countv. The state engineer
vieweel the washout ditch and wil
assist the county board in arriving at
i-omc "-olution that will allow them to
stop further washing away of the
toad and the adjoining land.
