In the business section many of the property owners have signed the petition but there is a feel- ing prevalent that the street should be made thirty nine or forty feet wide. It is argued that the addition- al cost would not be serious and that it would be in every sense of the word a complete job whereas a thirty-four foot road with a curb would make the road so narrow as to be out of the question altogether. At present it apâ€" pears that a thirty-four foot road with curbs is not acceptable to the business section. Warren Paving Co. The Warren Paving Company are progressing very favorably with the construction of the T.T.C. tracks through the town. Work commenced on Monday of laying the concrete slab which will be the found- ation of the tracks and it is expected that this work will be completed this week. Workmen commenced laying the ties this morning and when this is completed and the steel laid the top ‘coat of cement will be poured. It is not expected that this Will be complet- ed before the twelfth of the month. As soon as this is finished work will start at once on the construction of the roadway on either side of the tracks. A large gang of men are at work and the very latest in construction mach- >inery is being used. Everything poss- ible will be done to speed up the work but at the best the road cannot be used for at least another month.

The cost of a thirtyâ€"fqur foot road with. cur- bs and gutters would be $3 per lineal foot which figures out to be 9 cents per foot front- age per year, for a period of fifteen years; the cost of a forty foot road with curbs would be $5 per lineal foot or 15 cents per foot frontage over a period of fifteen years.

I 3 Weather Itoo Dry For Fall Wheat Corn cutting is the order of busi- ness on the farm this week. The , crop stands up well, is not very heavy ‘ and is not matured enough to make i the best ensilage. The fact that the 3 ground is so hard and dry should make 1 it the task of cutting it an easy one for the binder. i w Mr. K. Prentice of Milliken informsl us that many of the corn binders in . the township have needed repairs aft- er handling last seasons heavy crop under very adverse conditions. A large acreage of fall Wheat was seeded but owing to the extremely dry weather conditions much of the seed has not germinated. Many from here attended the funer- al of the late Thos.
