Get Away From Teams.
"Before we got our truck 1t took
about 80 teams to keep u mill
logged. and a short while after we
bought our truck we cut our mules
down to 25 head, keeping a few
teams on the road hauling to the
mill and some in the woods bunch

are gradually getting away from
teams altogether. Last week we sold
IS head, and are going to put on an
other truck, keeping only enough
stock to bunch the logs and bring
them out to a convenient place for the

MANY ACCIDENTS
ARE AV0|DAbLE
At Least rs Per Cent of Grade
Crossing Casualties Could
Be Prevented.
BRIEF REVIEW OF SITUATION
Most Common Cause 10 Inability Of
Driver Of Motor to See Approach.
Ing TraIn-Many Remedies
are Recommended.

Commenting on the annual report
Of Commissioner Gordon of the Cali
fornia State Railroad commission,
Good Roads says:
Before considering the remedies for
crossing accidents it may be profitable
to review the situation briefly. In the
first place We are warranted In assum-
ing that a very large proportion, GER
tainly IS per cent, Of such accidents
are avoidable. In the second place 1t
seems evident that. excepting careless
ness and a few unusual causes such as
losing control of the car because of
some failure in the mechanism or a
sudden physical disability Of the driv.
er, the most common II not the only
real cause for a crossing accident Is
the inability Of a driver to see an ap-
preaching train. It Is impossible, Of
course, to provide against the unusual
accidents that may occasionally occur.
It Is left then to find remedies for the
most common scauses-reckless driv.
ing which accounts for the major por-
ton Of the accidents, and the inabil-
ity to e approaching trains.
Only Sure Remedy.
'The only sure remedy is the sepa-
ration of the grades at each intersec-
ton, and nothing should be allowed
to interfere with the accomplishment
Of this as fast as possible with the
funds available. But this work will
take time because of its great cost. To
effect a separation of grades at all
highway and railway intersections in
California alone, according to Com
missioner Gordon's statistics, would
cost over $500, OOO, 900. an expenditure
which, as he pointed out, neither the
public nor the railroads could afford.
Other Remedies.
Leaving elimination out Of consid.
Grafton, there are still many remedies.
The more common one include the in
stallation of gates. the stationing Of
fiagmen, and the erection of mechanical
warning signals of various kinds.
Gates, according to Commissioner Cor.
don, cost about. 500 to install and
about $500 yearly for operation and
maintenance; flagmen cost about
5000 yearly. and automatic signals
from $3.50 to 5000 for installation and
from $24 to $40 annually for main
tenanca. These figures are presum-
ably for California, but they will serve
as indications Of the cost elsewhere,
and they show that even the cheapest
and probably least effective Of these
remedies is too expensive to permit
its immediate establishment at all
crossings"
