Fletcher, P. A:'' LeLong, Mon: Souther, "V. W. Bagwell. The county road1 supervisor . has-no supervision over the" work being done in Hooper's Creek township, as it is purely a town ship development -.v - By volunteer services, without pay, Mr. Patton is supervising road con struction in Hendersonville township, having taken charge of , this work by request of the trustees.; , As county supervisor Mr. Patton has charge of the expenditure of the $25,000 county road fund, the surveying and laying out of the, highways on which ( it will be spent, "and the supervision of the county chain gang, the place and na-. t ire of their;, work,- etc. : The sand-clay process of road build ing will be followed in practically all the work of thetownship and county. In order to facilitate road surfacing an order has been placed for a sand dredge, which i3 expected to . arrivo theearly part of this month. A con tract has been entered into with Major Theodore G. Parker i for all the sand needed and the dredge will be placed in Mud Creek : near Hendrsonville. The dredge will have a; capacity for keeping seventy-five teams busy haul ing sand on the various roads leadings to "and from Hendersonville. It has been built to order so as to . conform to the needs and conditions of tho streams of this mountain section and therefore a little delay has been nec essary in its shipment. The machine vrill take the sand from the bed of the creek and dump it into the wagons, thereby obviating the necessity for handling it more than -one 'time in re moval from the stream to the wagon. Hendersonville township will pay half the cost of this machinery while the county will pay the other half by order cf the commissioners. It is the policy of Mr. Patton to leave unimproved those roads for which citizens living thereon will not contribute sand for surfacing. Major Barker has contributed all sand de sired and the greater part of that for the highways in. this township will be taken from his streams. J. P. Fletch er is furnishing considerable sand from his sand bars and Cane creek This sand is already on the banks of of the stream and there is no expense attached to getting same only that in cident to loadin gand hauling. Vari ous other citizens have offered the use o ftheir creeks for sanding purposes and their'contents are used when it is found convenient. In order to assist in the road work, a number of citizens on various high ways have voluntarily contributed to the cause in order that road improve ment might be furthered. Their sub scriptions amount to between $400 and $500: 4 h n "W. . Mr. Patton states that the road work is progressing ; satisfactorily and he outlines improvements on the follow ing thoroughfares: Under the supervision of R. KStepp there is a squad of-men on the Spar tanburg road working from the city limits to the township line, a distance of about two and one-half ' miles. About one-half the distance has been completed, except for the sanding, rxme of which has been done in any part of. Hendersonville township, as such work has been postponed until the arrival of the dredge. - Under the supervision 'of T. H.Liver et the Price-Lane road has been com pleted from the Crab Creek road, to the Mud Creek road, a distance of about one and ; one -half -miles. ; Mr. Liverett has also completed the Black rocd from Mr. Lott's place to the church of St. John in the Wilderness, a distance of 7 two -miles ;. J and the Tiacey's Grove road from . Bat's Fork to the township1 line, a distance of two miles.' Mr. Liverett has his force of men on the Dana road from Bat's Fork to the township line, about half oi which has been completed.' . c V Under Jim' Carver the road from East Flat Rock to the Greenville road, a distance of one and one-half mile3, has , been about half completed. Here tofore the people of East " Flat Rock hav5 been seriously, handicapped by, reason; of poor roads, but this im provement will give this village of about a. thousand people' much better road facilities. . -J .

This road is jtwenty-flve feed wide, o good - grade and furnishes one of the best ; sceniq routes to bo found in this part of the country.. -; ; : - The County Funds. "With reference to the expenditure of .the county funds," under ithe super-, vision of Franks Pace the Blue RIdgcj road is being sanded at the far end." this road. being about five miles long and leading from the forks of the Blu- Rfdge and Edneyville road, to the top of .the mountain at the Justus place, forming a link of the .; road .to Sugar Loaf mountain.

About one third of ,tho road has ; been sanded, the ; material being furnished from Cane creek by3 J P.Fletcher. " W.

M. L. Byers is fur nishing sand for this piece of road. , Thechaingang is doing some effec tive; work on the Shaw's creek : road under B. B. Souther. ; f i ; , ; . Although the; agitation for good roads in Henderson . county was 'at fever heat 1 several months ago th-i work could' not begin until the first of the year for the reason tha tthe mon ey had not -been feceived from .the sale : of the bonds. When received this money was distributed among the three banks pf Hendersonville, and is drawing interest, R. H. Staton being tho treasurer of the Hendersonville township funds. This money was .re ceived only a few days before Christ mas. Immediately after Its' ; receipt the road work was begun . and con siderable progress, has been made-by reason of vtte very favorable weather conditions. The grading of the roads v?Ul . soon be finished and - unless the weather makes the roads in very bad condition for hauling purposes the sand will be placed thereon , during the winter months "and thoroughly worked before the packing process in cident to the usual summer conditions., V None of tne work has been done by contract as it was believed -by those in charge that more could be accom plished by placing It in: the hands of supervisors, all of whom are believed to be well suited for the tasks they are performing. ' They are receiving $2 per day for the time they work and laborers are paid $1.25. An allow ance of $3 per day is made for double teams. ,' ; - ; ' ?T-;: The majority of the grades have been made not to exceed 'four, and one-half . uer cent, and in no case has there been any made in excess of five I percent. ' '-''!";. . . . " . ' The road work that will be accom plished within the next few months will form very important links In . a number of highways leading to Hen dersonville from" other, sections. The road from the Henderson coun ty line to Asheyille is excellent. Spar tanburg county hasa good road to the Polk county line and Polk county y is spending $100,000 in', road ' building and is doing very effective work on the stretch , from Saluda to Tryoa. Henderson county has promised to meet Polk at the county line and Su pervisor Patton now has the location of the ne wroad under -consideration. He firmly believes that a grade not to exceed three per cent can be had and that the distance between Henderson ville. and Saluda can be made one-, half a mile shorter than the distance' covered, by the Southern railway. Mr. Patton states that the promise of Hen derson county to the Polk , authorities will be fulfilled and that the road will be In good condition for the traffic of next summer. v r . , Leading from the Greenville county line to Hendersonville is an excellent grade. : The people V ot Edneyville township " are 'preparing for a bond irsue which will give a , good . road from Hendersonville to the Bat Cave section, making connection with 1 the highway leading . from Charlotte to Asheville. ; ' U : " ' ' During the , next twelve ; months many miles of road will be built and improved in Henderson county, thus making it one of the leading counties of the mountains in road improvement. . Road, work has been most economi cally done in this county under the supervision of Mr. ' Patton,' who is drawing a monthly salary of only $35, when -It is understood that he could draw $75. under the law. - He is great ly, devoted to the cause of ;road: build ing 'and has freely given ; hia time to this work when not required to do so by the position which ho holds.- . ; ; X B.
