think this wide tire proposition is
one Of the first essentials to good
roads and should be encouraged by
legislation and a limit law for the
amount of load for every inch of tire

to be three inches or more for 1000
pound loads and one additional inch
for each added 1000 or major fraction
thereof, very much less work would be
required to maintain our roads.
