The grass on the roadside belongs
to the owner of the land. Land that
has been set apart for highway pur-
poses has not been sold or decided
away, as with q railroad, but has
only been loaned for public use.
Anything on the land, such as trees,
wells, grass, etc., that do not in any
way Interfere with travel, belong to
the man who owns the land. This
is the law in all states. When the
road is discontinued the land reverts
to the original owner. The owner
can do nothing that will abstract or
interfere with travel.
