As soon as snowy weather is gone the salvage drive will be extended to all farms, where the committee expects to receive discarded dis-carded farm machinery and implements. im-plements. County road supervisors have been named in charge of collections collec-tions and will oversee transportation transpor-tation of materials to the county shops in Murray. Spots for county collection in Bingham district include Bingham Bing-ham City hall, Copperfield tunnel tun-nel portal and Highland Boy school. George Panos, county truck driver, plans to set up regular collection schedules in the spring. Anyone having scrap they wish to give the county now is asked to telephone Mr. Panos. s |
