A man in the English veteran re

ROAD SCRAPES PULLED
BY TRACTION ENGINE
ARE BEING TRIED OUT JUST
BELOW THE CITY
IF SUCCESSFUL
County WSJ Probably Purchase
Machine to Do Work All of
the Time. ?
Two road acrapen, pulled by a
traction engine, are being used on the
road between hore and Iva and last
night the stretch between the city
limits and Mr. Frank Hall's place had
been finished.
Supervisor King was asked about
this new -way of pulling the road
serones in Anderson county and stat
ed that the method was only being
tried out at present and if it worked
well, probably^ would be used exten
sively. The engine is the property
of Mr. M. H. Sexton and is rented
to tilie county for a few days, thc
rate being $5 a day, engiueer in
cluded .
Mr. King has Just returned from a
trip in Oeorgiu where he went to see
a demonstration of road machinery
und said that be thought it wno a
Kood thing. He thinks that the chain
gangs should bu used in permanent
road construction, such us chunking
them, grading, etc.. and that there Is
some kind of machinery that can be
used economically In keeping a road
up after lt is once built.
Mr. King stated that there was
nothing better than convicts and
mules for the actual construction of
roads but that when it came to keep
ing one in good condition after it was
built he believed tha-t machinery
could be used that would be of much
less oxpense to the county.
This engine and scrapes are merely
being used as a test and If ?bey prove
successful, machinery for the purpose
will probablly be bought.
