A. H. DAViS-There is Law IN
this state against any employee of any
railroad company working contIpu-
ously more than certain number of
hours. and its provisions ought to be
extended to those working in any
other line of business in which the
welfare of the public is Involved. The
very distressing automobile accident
on the Phantom canon highway last
Monday morning suggests that such a
statute should be applied to the EN-
ployes of all motor companies en-
gagged in carrying passengers for hire.
The safety first slogan should be
made applicable to all common car
riers.

t. NJ. HARDING-Contrary to the
popular belief. there are many large
tracts of land in Fremont county
upon which tractor can be utilized to
advantage Many Of these tracts
have not heretofore been cultivated
because the owners did mol have
teams or help enough to do it. but with
a tractor all of this land can be eul-
tivated easily so that l am sure that
in the next few years many hundreds
more acres of Fremont county land
will be cultivated than heretofore

Main street very much.

call an instance right at this moment
