March 26, 1927 I Chairman, Board of County Commissioner;, I I Bayfield County, Washburn, Wisconsin. Dear Si r: A matter of very serious import has been brought to our attention recently and from a source so reliable that it cannot be passed by without careful investig- ation. i Briefly the troublesome matter is this: Vie have acquired through fore- closure of our mortgages a certain number of farms in your county, and may say that, we are confronted with a situation which seems to' indicate that we shall in the same manner acquire a few additional farms. In attempting to affect a sale of a number of these farms neighboring land owners have raised a question as to the accuracy of the lines, and in fact have absolutely disputed the correctness of the lines which have been recognized in the past as correct. In one instance near 1-ason the protesting farmer is so certain of his position that -he has taken up the fence, declaring that the owner of the farm on which we carried the mortgage, has been using from four to ten rods of his land the whole length of an eighty. 11aturally no purchaser can be found to buy one of . these farms with a situation like this confronting him, neither do we feel safe in i issuing a warranty deed. Upon tahing this. up with various civil engineers with a view of having a ae re-survey/fdthe particular farms in question, we are informed that this condition I is not at all unusual in your own as well as adjacent counties, and that in order to accurately estab;ish boundaries a re -survey of entire townships will be necessary. i I am passing this information on to you for your careful consideration, and shall be pleased to have your reaction at an early date. in the meantime the ' I Federal Land Bank feeL in duty bound to withdraw entirely from your county insofar as making additional farm loansare concerned, at least until such time as we have positive assuranceof the accuracy of surveys. .:Very truly yours, R.

The following highway report was then read: SPECIAL I4fLO ING OI.+ THE BAYFIELD COUNTY BOARD - - APRIL _261, 1927.._ . i i To the Honorable Ir'lembers of the County Board: I Your committee begs to submit information in regard to Highway matters on some of the things.that have taken place since the annual report of the County Highway Committee- last fall. It, has riot been the Custom to give a written report on highway i matters to the spring meeting of the board, but we trust that the following infor- mation will be of interest. t.o; the members. Your committee regrets to report the death of John Friberg on February 21st last. Patrol Superintendent Harry Gurrjy took charge of l:1=r. 11'riberg'8 work during his illness, in a satisfactory manner and was appointed by the Highway Committeeto i fill the vacancy caused by lft,. Friberg's death, and in compliance with 17.22 (b ) We sincerely hope that his appointment will meet with the approval of the board. `i"he cormitt-ee had intended to keep the Train highways free from snow and open for travel to about Xmas time last fall with ordinary patrol maintenance equip- ment, but weather conditions were not favorable for the use of light equipment for that work and therefore all highways in this county were closed to travel about i . December lst. About ,larch lst your committee tried out a tractor snow plow of the push type. The machine was used on Highways. at state mainteriance expense �only. _70 county funds were used in operating the plow, and the intention of the State Hain- ; tenance Dept. was to shove the snow out into the ditches, just before the spring breakup, thereby causing the snow to melt faster and not soak up the road quite so Much. We found that with the amount of snow which we had fuarch 1st and packed down all winter by sleigh travel to a depth of. 5 or. 6 feet, it was very hard to remove. your committee has not bought the plow, but does intend to recommend the purchase of same at the annual fall meeting of this board provided that either state or county funds are made available for snow removal at that time. 'he cost of the plow would be $1950.00. Your committee is pleased to report the securing of � 6000.00 from the 'Vis- consin Highway cor�riission f or the replacement of a bridge on 713 in Bayfield with an i earth fill, the work to be done by county day labor forces under the direction of county highway committee and commissioner. 1 his work has already been started. We are also pleased to report that the 'aisconsin highway 6ommission has tentatively agreed to finance the replacing of the i"ish CreeK slide or. No. 10 entirely from State free fund, also to turn grading operation of iVederal Aid projects on No. 10 over to county forces instead of letting same by contract. Credit should be given the County Highway Department for securing necessary information and facts which helped to bring about the results mentioned above, also to assemblyman, Paul Ungrodt, for arranging a hearing before the TvVisconsin Highway , Commission and for presenting the information mentioned above-. 11i7e raight add that since the recent. reorganization of the Nisconsin highway Commission, we have received more courteous attention than previously. Money has been provided from state gang maintenance funds for surfacing with screened & crushed gravel. for parts of the Ashland Washburn road this surfmaer. T.he use of a small portable screening and crushing plant on this job will be taken care I of from State funds by the regular machinery rental agreement. This Committee is positive that we must have screened and Brushed gravel on some of our heavy traveled highways in order to keep them passable during wet seasons. The improvement of the county 'i'runk Highway System by reconstruction or grad- ing, under the present law has to be paid for entirely by direct county tax, and when SPECIAL TOET ING OI L EE' BAYF I = LD.
