Iter Years Of Work
of 80 cast
Completion Highway
Sllvcrton is no longer a drenm
it n reality After encountering
my difficulties in obtaining and
itisportlng supplies the Barnhlll
Construction Company of Turkey
finished work on the allweather
Vajlfroad last week
Four miles of the road lying
J IEjjlOjmilcs east fo Tulia were fin
ilWishcd with oil instead of asphalt
seal coat because the asphalt was
Unobtainable While not as serviceable
as asphalt the oiled
retch is still good road and pro
ides an outlet east of town in
ny kind of weather
jDcspltc the fact that the road
ivas completed at a time when
passenger and truck travel is rath
IcrJWcll restricted it is believed
Ithat the road will become a very
