and that it shapes up the roads in. a
way that the smaller graders cannot. do.
The power grader in the county is say-
inggrayel_ to a greater extent, the repre-.
sentative of ward 3 claimed. "It costs
$12 for the county grader for an eight-
hour , day in which time the machine
does 38 miles of road" he said.
Low Sheep Claims
Mr. Cox referred to the money spent
in sheep claims and said that the $8 paid
out this year was the -lowest he ever re._
membered in the township. "Usually
the amount reaches $100," he said.
Winter Roads
Mr. Ben Rathwell, the newest council
member, was of the opinion that one of
the -biggest probleras-in the Thwn-glilp to-
day is the matter of winter roads. He
said that the majority of the county roads
have been kept open during the winter
for cars and that not much money had
been spent on keeping roads from becom-
ing snow bound .in the past few years.
Referring to tne power grader Mr.
Rathwell said that he was and wasn't in
favor of it. "1 don't this::: cur roads
are wide enoush to work the grader on
althsugh they do the roads
cheassar if the oads are in shape. As
',representative of the ward he felt that
his district was in- pretty fair shape at
present.
Roy Tyndall. township road superin-
tendent, agreed with Councillor Corey in
that he thought the fanners should get
so much- per rod for cutdng wee& in
front of their land. Speaking of the
heavy growth of weeds on the ,side of the
road this year Mrs Tyndall_expressed the
open much more easily the weeds
along the sides were cut.
"With .regard to the maintenance
grader, the, proyinoial superintendent says
our roads are in good shape but, that we
are raging ori too flitch gravel and not
maintaining them enoUgh. A road
should • be shaped up in the spring but
since we are not the only township using
the county grader it is almost impossible
to get the grader at that time of the
year," Mid 'Mr. Tyndall. It has been
'said that a 'power grader would save
enough money in one year to pay for it-
self and the Provincial Engineer has said
the same thing, he added.
