JAR Standard Make Used Storage Batteries $2.95 Road to Be Given New Surface This Year Figures Are Kept Secret FAR BEYOND ESTIMATE Is the llacon county highway department able to build paving at a lower cost than private contractors? The question was raised Friday in the meeting of the county board during discussion of the Oakley road wliii-h was built last year, and is to he topped this year with a hard suf-face. The highway department has made no report of the cost of the Oakley road. Cost a Mystery T'nofficially. it is reported that the work on thevroad Jast year cost approximately $26,000.

The road is a little le.s than two miles in length, rnder a resolution adopted by the supervisor, the county highway department Is authorized to withdraw J20.0W from the county's share of cas tax money to pay for a hard sur-fare top on the road. Using these two figures as a guide, the cost of the road when completed nay reach much as more than a mile. Estimated S700 a Mile When the proposal was first made for county construction of roads, it was estimated that a macadam road could be built for about $7,500 a mile. Members of the county highway committee are convinced that other roads to be built by the county will not cost as much per mile as the Oakley road. Last year the county department was new in the road h'lilding business, and admittedly made some mistakes which were rostly.

A start on the work' was delayed, and bad weather was encountered before the job was done. The county was compelled to pay demur-raze on several cars of material over a long period in which weather conditions made construction work Impossible. Demurrage costs totaled thousands of dollars, it was unofficially reported. Need State Approval In future road building, the county must gain the approval of the state highway department upon all expenditures before gas tax money Is available. It Is expected by members of the county committee, that the state supervision will result In increased efficiency and lower construction costs.
