The flood of applications for state aid in the building of roads that was expected to follow the pas sage ot the good roads bill has fail ed to materialize, and the indica tions are that there will be few roads built this year. Up to the present time, Road Commissioner Hunter has received but three applications, and he finds that in many instances the road supervisors are unacquaint ed with the provisions of the bill, and want to proceed without the co operation of the county commission ers. Mr. Hunter has sent out let ters to ascertain the road mileage in each county, and until he secures this information no important steps can be taken. Bell Telephone.1 GOLD WATCH FREE!
