ADOPT THE BROAD TIRE

1t is to be hoped that the progress
sive voters in Spotsylvania county,
which means those who desire to see
the county advance in prosperity.
will win another victory at the polls
next Tuesday. when they viii be
given an opportunity to vote for the
adoption of wide tire law to be ap-
piled to CORTLAND and Chancellor
districts. so that the roads built in
those districts may be preserved and
kept up as they should be. The
board of supervisors has made an
eminently satisfactory explanation
of the course they will pursue in case
: thelaw is adopted and from read
ing Of same it strikes Us that their
plan to put the law into effect IN case
a majority vote for it, is a first class
one and that it will work so gradu-
ally as not to impose a hardship or
even an additional expense on any
citizen and this is as it ought to be.
You will not be called upon to eX-
change your present tires for the
broader ones proposed as soon as
the law becomes a law by the vote
of the people, but the supervisors
have provided a good long time in
which the change can be effected
and it is fair to presume that by the
time this period has elapsed You Will
be in need of new tires any way. and
it won't cost you any more to buy
the broader ones than it would to
purchase the kind you are now using.
Besides this, you will save your coun-
ty a large sum yearly by using these
>hroader ties and Of course this means
wing to you, because the coun-
money after all comes out of
pocket. The roads won't need
much repairing and they will last
dch longer, so by all means voters
Spotsylvania complete the good
work you begun when you voted the
bond issue by now voting for the
wide tire law. Nearly all the States
north and west of us have adopted
it and a number of Virginia cOun-
ties. and not one of these has ever
gone back to the old style tires.
Don't forget to go out and vote.
