Would Abolish Toll Roads.

More than 100 property owners of
northeastern Frederick county ap-
peared before the Board of County
Commissioners of Frederick yester-
day petitioning that the county take
over three turnpikes, embracing about
Is miles of highway.
TIL the event the roads are taken
over six tollgates will be abolished.
The transfer of these roads will mark
the elimination of all tollgates i'm
Frederick county.
It was pointed out that while the
County Commissioners have no auth
ority To purchase roads, the county
would maintain the highways IL they
were donated to the board. The
property owners hope that eventually
the State will take over these roads
and make them a part Of the good
roads system The removal of these
tOllgates would make free road from
philadelphia to Baltimore, Littlestown,
Pa; Taneytown, Key Mar, Woods
Doro and Frederick.

PLANT
INSPECTED
by STOCKHOLDERS And INVITED
GUESTS FROM THIS CITY SPECIAL
TRAIN CARRIED PARTY TO PLANT
EVERYBODY PLEASED WITH RE-
CEPTION.

While visitors are always welcome,
they were made especially welcome at
the plant or the Baltimore Roofing e
Asbestos Manufacturing Company, at
Asbestos, last Saturday, when a NUM-
beT OF stockholders and invited guests
were conducted on an inspection tour
of the big plant a special train left
Westminster at. lis in the afternoon
with the Carroll county contingent
under the guidance of General Mama
ser O. R. Emigh, and after reaching
the plant the party was divided into
several groups, each in charge of a
department head, and personally CON
Quoted through the works.
1t had been more than year since
a public inspection of the plant had
been held and during that period nu-
merous additions and improvements
have been made These were a mat
ter XII keen interest to TIN stockhold-
ers, who have watched the plant grow
in three years to the biggest of its
kind in the world
Prominent among the new equip
ment is a second feIt-making machine
for exclusive use in making roofing
felt, releasing the original machine
Tor ASBESTOS paper, sheathing and
similar products.
The installation of a second roof
ing machine, thereby doubling the
output Of the roofing plant, was an
other feature of interest noted for the
first time by those present
During the past year the motive
power of the plant has been changed
over from reciprocating engines to
one high-speed turbine, and it was a
novel sight to see one small turbine
doing the work of two big reciprocal
ing engines. The two older machines
are being retained as reserve units.
The erection of two big concrete
warehouses for the storage of ma
terial, already completed, and new
office building to relieve congestion
in the main building, were matters of
much interest, showing the rapid ex-
pansion Of the plant in short space
H0f time
Additional asphalt stills and IA mum
Der Oh secondary buildings were seen
publicly for the first time. A party
|Of Baltimoreans followed the Carroll
county delegation late in the after
noon in the inspection tour.

SNOW And PLENTY OF MUD
Travel at IA Stand StiIl County
Roads Almost ImpassabIe.

On Tuesday our county roads be-
came almost impassable by The warm
weather bringing out the frost. On
Wednesday a deep snow fell and the
roads and pike are now one veritable
smear with travel suspended.
The SNOW caused the c. & P. Tele-
phone Company To have it, troubles
Ny breaking down ILL., lines with IA
heavy coating OF snow.
The wires of the Western Union
Telegraph Company were down in
this city. Several crossed the electric
Light wires at the railroad, which
necessitated the closing down of the
electric plant while the wires were
moved
Several automobiles got stuck in the
mud on our streets and had to be
pulled out
The Carroll Transit Company and
Bowers Bus Line abandoned their
schedules On Wednesday -on account
OF the snow and condition Of the
roads they used
The rural mail carriers are far be-
hind their schedule from the same
conditions.
