Castle Dale-- All excavation work has been finished and gravel has been stockpiled for the filter system at Castle Dale, reported Mayor Herman Behling this The Hardesty gates are on hand and only the arrival of some additional steel for the concrete work was delaying the beginning of construction, Mr. Behling advised. The gravel 185 yards of it was hauled by three local trucks, under supervision of Mr Behling. Cost of the gravel, de. llvered to the site of the project was only $1.64y2 per yard which is considerably under the usual contract price for gravel and1 which will result in a large net saving to the city in the cost of the filtering system. A full report of the financial details of the project will be made when it is finished, the mid-we- ek promised. By Mrs Ray B.
