not yet seen anything which he has

every opportunity he has found fault

said Commissioner Brownlow today.
THE two judges of the police coul I
are swampe1 every day with "orl<

as against others.
All large cities have traffic courts
and there should be an extra Judge
attached to the police court here
whose sole duty will be to handle
traffic cases. In this way the judge

able to rid the city of deliberate VIOLA

Owners of Liberty bonds are again
warned by Treasury Department of.
fcials against stock promoters who
are trying to persuade L$Serty bond
holders to exchange their Government
securities for stock in fraudulent
ventures.
y The Treasury has been informed of
numerous instances, particularly in
sections Of the country where new en-
terprises are being fioated, of persons
being swindled out of their Govern
-uent securities. Secretary Glass, in
this connection, today said:
= Where Liberty bondholders are
urged to give UP their securities for
stocks Of a speculative character, good
sense suggests the presumption that
the offer is made because the Liberty
bonds are worth decidedly more than
the stock. Experience in a great num-

lists have their cars under control, as
rule, and pedestrians are guarding
against accidents by watchfulness.
Away from the congested streets there
is a great temptation on the part or
motorist to speed and to think
he has clear sailing. Pedestrians
are more negligent because they
think everything is all right. Sud-
denly each awakens to the true facts,
but it is often too late; n life has
been lost.
The recklessness OF many motor
lists. as going to illustrate that jay
walking is not so many times at
fault as claimed, is that about 200
lamp posts are wrecked in this city
every year by the bad handling OF
machines by drivers. In such cases
the pedestrian on the sidewalk, well
within his rights, would be in dan

1t is also claimed by the police
that the most careless and reckless
drivers are generally those who own
and operate their own machines. II

Rankin's suggestion Of small parks
where tourists and others might stop
for a breathing spell has something
very attractive about it. Such spots
would add immensely to the beauty
of the road. They should have a we'll

to protect against sudden storms
which come up quickly in this state.

/. Commenting upon the proposal to
plant trees along the roadside T. B.
Dankin writes to Wallaces' Farmer
thus: 81 can not agree as to planting
trees along public highways, especially
dirt roads. Trees on the north side
cause the snow to drift in the road.
On the south they keep the wind and
sun from drying up the road and these
two are great help to drainage,
which is the most important factor
in a dirt road. Besides these trees
rob land for some distance from them.
I have across the road in front of my
house, on my neighbours land, grove
coming out to the road. This forty
rods of road is always much slower
in drying, causing trouble in dragging
and instead of being the best, as It.
should, is about the worst In the mile.
81 suggest small parks located at
intervals on the main travelled roads
and at the functions of important by
roads. These parks might IN be- an;
acre or less, set to trees. and seeded
to blue grass, having a driveway per;
laps, substantial seats, SO tourists
could camp or lunch. This would
really cost less in the end than to
have trees along the road" The
