CountyRoad SignExpected . OnAug. 15 County Engineer Frederick Ii. Lemcke said that, barring a shortage o f pipe for posts, all of Greene county's 321 lead inter sections should he marked for the traveling public by tins fall. All, that ir, except Ankeney Mill or Fairground road, he added. Posts have been placed at half o f the intersections already, ke said, and the rest will be in place a3 soon as the pipe becomes avail able. Only a two-man crew has been working on the project at present but once work slackens o ff on other road jobs, the engineer said more men could be assigned to finish up the road-marking job before cold weather. The Grate Manufacturing com pany Bellevue, Ky., awarded the contract fo r manufacturing the locaj markers, notified the engi neer that the signs pronld go into the presses Aug. 1 and all should be ready by Aug. 13. The iron posts are being placed in three-foot hole.* in concrete and it will be a comparatively easy job to affix the markers to the top o f each post, Lemcke declared. Name signs were ordered for all roads in the county, outside municipalities, except one which has been the subject of debate among residents ever since the marking project was mentioned. Although Xenia calls it An keney Mill road and tax maps do also,'! some resielents of the thor oughfare residing outside Xenia have insisted that its proper name is Fairground road. Lemcke said no action would be taken to ward marking the highway un til one name is agreed upon. Drivers Licenses Go On Sale Sept 7 Edward T.

Huffman, acting county farm sgent, predicted that Greene County would have a top grade corn crop this year. ? The farm agent’s forecast was in keeping with a recent an nouncement by the U. 'S. depart ment of agriculture that this year’s corn harvest will be the largest in the nation’s history. The corn looks excellent, as it does generally throughout Ohio, Mr. Huffman said. He said the county’s crop would probably equal its years of highest yield in the-past. The Northwestern part of the county suffered most from rains which came too early, .the farm agent said, but nowhere was the growth stunted to any great ex tent. Ears are now forming on most of the corn and this is a critical period in its growth, he said. Corn needs rain during this per iod, he added, and so fa r it has been getting a sufficient amount. Mr. Huffman tempered his more promising predictions, however, with the old reminder that “You can’t tell definitely until the corn is in the crib.” He said the average yield here sixty and sixty-five bushers an over a period o f years is between acre. Greene county has about 70,000 acres plantecLin corn this season, according to J. B. Mason, chair man o f the AAAI WITH THE department of ag riculture’s prediction‘o f a record harvest, farmers are beginning to inquire at the local AAA of fice concerning the level at which corn prices will be supported, Mr. Mason said. The loan rate on corivin Greene county was $1.41 a bushel in 1947, he said. Indications are this rate will be considerably higher in 1948 ow ing to the fact the parity price for corn on June 15,1947 was $1.48 a bushel and had increased to $1.61 on June 15,1948, the AAA chairman explained. He said the increase was due to the higher price level o f commod ities which the farmer sells on the market and the higher prices of commodities he purchases for.his farm and his family. The corn harvest will start late next month. Mrs.EthelSheley DrownsTuesday AtLakeWhite Mrs. Russell Sheley, 27, o f Chillicothe drowned in Lake White south of Chillicothe while swimming Tuesday evening at 6 o'clock. Her husband has been employ ed fo r several years as a driver on the Dayton & Southeastern Bus lines with home offices in Jamestown, Third of State Routes Resurfaced Additional funds recently made available to ithe Ohio department of highways have permitted the expansion o f the department’s surface treating program, ac cording to J. Arthur Goldschmidt, division deputy director of divi sion No. *8. In considering the two year period,, 1947-1948," this means that bv the end o f the year, the state highway department will have completed the resurfacing of the 37.12 miles or 32.03% of the state highways in Greene county instead o f the 29.70 miles pre viously reported. Contracts util izing the additional funds have already. been sold and Greene county residents may expect to have many more miles of safer, smoother roads within the next few months.
