REQUEST FOR RIGHT OF WAY THROUGH CLAYTON SOIL EXPERIMENT FIELD IN ADAMS C O U N T Y (7) A request from the Division of Highways, Department of Public Works and Buildings of Illinois, for the dedication of a portion of the Clayton Soil Experiment Field in A d a m s County which is necessary for the construction of a highway known as State Aid Route 14.

The donors of this field have already consented to the dedication. O n m o t i o n of M r s . E v a n s , this r e c o m m e n d a t i o n w a s adopted.
