According to County Treasurer I).
M. McCaskill he now has on hand
$22,834.95 of the County's fund at
the close of August 15th. This *18 a
good showing when it is known that
many of the counties throughout the j
state are broke and are having to '
borrow money. It is about the same
amount the" ooun lyhail on~TTand last
year including several thousand dol
lars borrowed money. This year the
county did not have to borrow. Su
pervisor West has been keeping hltt
eyes on the county's finance and has
succeeded in eliminating many of
the costs- of keeping up the roads
ami bridges, and has at the same
time Klven the county good roads.
