Graveling Meridian road in Polk County to begin this summer
County commissioners regret to report no major change to the Meridian road near Osceola. A committee led by Rev H H A Taylor and others met State Engineer Cochran at Lincoln and agreed to a slight adjustment: the road will angle along the railroad and cemetery area instead of its current straight path. The plan includes including the Polk county segment between Shelby and Stromsburg in upcoming state graveling contracts, likely starting before summer.
