Judge Bates made a decree to the effect that the county ommissioners take immediate possession of the disputed ight of way from Aurora and Salina, with the provision that the commis- sioners file a bond to cover all damd ages. The bond required to be by the commissioners was placed at $30,000. The amount of the be awarded to the seveial damages land owners through which the highway will pass, and which has leeis surveyed, will be determined later by a jury, according to reports. Hans Christensen, John Nielson, Christian Christensen, E. W. Crane, J. F. Crane, J. C. Crane, A.. Williams, Carl Christensen and J. C. Crane are named as owners of the lands which will be effected as a result of the decision of Judge Bates. The announcement that immediatj possession be taken indicates that operations on the building of the highway between Salina and Richfield will be started soon, as the state road commission has also declared that it is ready to advertise' for bids for the building of a gravel rond along the proposed highway. -- fum-she- Smr Farmers Are lo - Why the farmers of Sevier county should increase their acreage this year, is the title of an interesting article appearing in the latest issue of the Sugar Cossette, by C.
