favor Of the wide tires and against the
narrow tires For use on the college
farm they are now buying only widetired
wagons and prefer them in every way.
The last wagon purchased has four-nch
tires and i> three inches lower than
standard height. and it IS far better than
those in common use. All local dealers
can obtain the Wide-tired wagons if they
are demanded. In many localities tho
use OF narrow-t:rcd wagons is restricted
by law.
Whether it is better to bring the wide
tires into general use by simply creating
a demand for them by public sentiment,
or by the enactment Of some kind of leg
islation to accomplish the desired end. IS
4 question for discussion. Some good
roads apostles advocate the establishment
or gr3Uuafed WflccI TAX on all Ae3FF
vehicles with narrow tires, allowing those
with wide tires to go free. The laws pre-
>cribed in regard TO the tax vary N the
various States as do laws enacted Oh 9TH
