Early in the coming year the state highwaycommission will advertise for. bids for the construction of the state and federal aid highway from Spring Hill to Columbia. It is hoped to award the contract so that work can begin on the construction of this road early in the spring. , ' Contrary to the expectation of many people jn the county it is proposed only to build the road from the county line at Spring Hill to Columbia dur ing, 1920. The other-authorized roads, those from here to Rockdale by Mt. Pleasant and out the Pulaski pike to the Giles county line cannot be con structed this year nor will their con struction be attempted. );." This statement was made this week by William P. Mooret chief highway engineer of the Tennessee road com mission, who was here with his fam ily for the holiady.s. Mr. Moore said that there would not be sufficient state and federal aid money available dur ing the coming year to do more than construct the line from Spring Hill to Columbia. It is hoped, however, that the other roads can be built during the following year, The construction of the highways is going to cost Considerably more than the estimated figure last summer When the!; county court authorized these rads is. was estimated that they would "cost $12,000 a mile. Since that time materials and labor have ad vanced fco that- they will now cost around ;$la,'O00 'a mile, wheh will be $5,000 for the county and an equal sum forjthe state .am)., the ecleral gov ernment " 4 Before the work of construction ever begins the county will have more than $20,000 on hand to tho credit of the state and federal roads. .

This money is now being collected by the trustee and there being no bonds upon which to pay Interest or-roads to maintain it will accumulate in the treasury.

McLean, county agricul tural agents has'cOmpleted his annual report which will be submitted to the county court,, which meets here the second Monday; in January. The re port gives a comprehensive summary of the work which has been done in the promotion and advancement of the agricultural interests of the coun ty during the past year. It will also show that the results obtained by the omplOynient : of modern scientific methods in farming has netted the county a sum many times in excess of the money spent for this purpose. Mr. McLean ! feels sure : that the county court will appreciate the work that 'has been clone during the year, and will do everything possible to make the new year even better. PROF. BINGHAM TO HAVEJERSEY HERD WELL KNOWN CULLEOKA FARM ER WILL ESTABLISH A DAIRY ON HIS FARM. Prof. William N. P.ingham, of Cul- leoka. is establishing a pure bred Jer sey herd. Prof. Bingham is one of the leading farmers of , that section and has decided that dairying offers not 1 only the best oportunitios for returns but also that it will better enable one to maintain soil fertility. He has re solved that he will have a herd of only the very best cattle that, can be obtained. Jo that end he is going to bottom his herd on the Landseer Fan cy family. He recently purchased from Col. .Mora B. Farias, one of the best -Judges of Jerseys in, this sec tion, three great cows, all of whom trace their ancestry back to lind scer's Fancy and all of whom are bred to Mr: Far'iss' Hood "farm bull. These will be the nucleus 'around which he will build up his herd. Prof Bingham paid $W0 for the. three cows. E TAXES NEXT TO PESTER FOLKS OF COUNTY BLANKS ASKING SEARCHING AND ! NUMEROUS QUESTIONS WILL BE COMING SOON. INCREASED PAYMEMTS EXPECTED Unpecedented Prosperity of the Coun ty Wll Be Reflected in the Income Taxes That Will Be Paid Into -Coffers of Uncle Sam. T-4 Shortly after the first of the year Maury countians will begin to get huge, formidable legal documents which upon examination they will find contain numerous and: searching in quiries into their -financial transac tions for the past year. Uncle Sam will he curious to know just how much the folks have made in the year that closes next Wednesday at, 'midnight for he is going to insist upon a certain per cent of it, -. It is expected that the income tax payments from this county next year will show a very substantial increase over those for last year because of the unprecedented prosperity of the peo ple. They have made more money by far during this year than they ever made before and this will be reflected in the income tax statements, since that tax hits hardest those who are able to pay the most. Taxpayers are going to have the same rate to pay that they paid last year and generally it is assumed that there will be no material changes un der the regulations as congress has left the law so far virtually intact. They will have the advantage this year of having a deputy collector here on two days of the week whose advice tney can obtain. Alt of the income tax does not have to be paid at one time, like the state and county and city taxes but may be paid in install ments without interest. Probably a majority of the income taxpayers would not mind the actual parting with their coin if it were not incumbered with such complex state ments to fill out, The income tax blank is the nightmare of the average business man.
