Price Set on Land ! Condemned by. State Department of Roads Three appraisers appointed by Sheriff Joe Mrasek, Thursday set $1299 as a fair price for a strip of land owned by George C. Mey er, of Avoca, and others, to be taken over by the Department of Roads and Irrigation of the State of Nebraska. The figures decided upon by the appraiser included $1244 for dam age to land owners and $50 dam age to tenant by reason of loss of wheat crop. The men making the appraisal were. Roy O. Cole, Herman P. Meisinger and J. E. Meisinger, all of Plattsmouth. The appraisal was made as part of condemnation proceedings of the Department of Roads and Ir rization against George C. Meyer and ethers. The department needs take some action and determine aids in preventing huge losses j which have resulted in previous years to local merchants as a re jsult of flash floods. He pointed lout that a series of planned dams ! in specific sections of the city j would control it until it drained I off naturally instead of flashing through town and creating dam age. Richey was named chairman for the committee to plan for the needs and procedure. We hope the committee will receive the neces sary cooperation from the town to carry out such a plan.
