Good roads push in Ringsted area cited as model
The Ringsted Dispatch reports that the county can build and maintain good roads for less than the patchwork system. Two miles east of town were permanently built and gravel surfaced last summer, now well drained with solid grade. Local notables and residents travel to Canada and nearby towns for business and family visits. A Danish church confirmation occurred, and a Harris wedding near Ringsted drew about fifty guests.
