FAVOR SMOOTH WHEELS
Frederick Farmers Association Takes
Action.

A resolution, important to the farm
ers of the entire state, commencing
smooth wheeled traction en-
gines i'm preference to those with
cheated wheels was adopted by the
Farmers Association of Frederick
county at it's meeting i'm Frederick
Saturday. This is the result of the
demonstration given by the State
Roads Commission under direction of
Chairman Weller over the mountains
OF Western Maryland.
Throughout the journey the engine
pulled a threshing machine ana wa
ter tank. There was no mishap, and
the trip was made in good time. The
demonstration was made from Cum
berland to Frederick, and many
farmers witnessed it. The commits
sion claims to have proven that the
traction engine owners of Maryland
were wrong when they stated that
an engine without cleats could not
do the work as successfully as the
smooth-wheeled ones.
The Farmers Association in its
resolution commended the commits
sion for the stand taken and pledged
its cooperation.
Assistant Chairman OF the Roads
Commission Zouck went to Frederick
following the public declarations by
several local threshermen, who were
victorious in the case In court At
Frederick, where the commission
sought an injunction to restrain me
threshermen from running cleated
engines ON the roads, that the test
was a miserable failure. lie had an
other demonstration made to show
the time required to take on and put
on the bands. By actual timing It
took but IL minutes to remove the
bands on one wheel and put them back
The machine was then taken to
grassy place and tried. The wheels
did slip, but when the bands were
removed from one wheel the outfit
proceeded successfully. Mr.. Zouck
states that the commission would
not be opposed to allowing traction
engines to run On the improved high
ways with cleats on one wheel, pro
vided the cleats are kept Ga the side
of the road and do not break the
shoulder of the pike.
