AUTOS MUST HAVE
DINNER LIGHTS
SECRETARY OF STATE SENDS
WORD TO SHERIFF WILSON
TO ENFORCE LAW

The anti-glare law in Iowa is to be
obeyed. Sheriff Wilson has receiv-
ed notice to this effect and says he
will see that Audubon county motor
lists obey the law this season.
AS preventive measure against
accidents, Walter Ramsay, secretary
of state, is calling to the attention Of
sheriffs, constables and highway pa
trolmen, the need of enforcing the
laws relative to auto lights this
spring and summer.
Mr.. Ramsay calls attention to the
facts that autoists have been COM
PEELED to turn into a ditch at night,
because they were practically blind
ed by the glazing headlights on an ap-
preaching auto. Mr. Ramsay says
this menace to auto drivers and pas
sengers can easily be avoided
through preventive measures. pre-
caution and enforcement of the law
relative to glaring lights and the use
of head light refiectors.
"The law is specific" says Mr..
Ramsay, "and is designed for the
protection of autoists. 1t reads as
follows:
at shall be unlawful to use on
any vehicle of any kind operated up
on the public highways Of the state,
including motorcycles, any lighting
device of over four candle power,
equipped with reflector, unless the
shape shall be so arranged that the
directly reflected and undiffused
beam of light when measured rs or
more feet ahead the light shall not
rise above AZ inches from the level
surface on which the vehicle stands
upon under all conditions Of load.
"If in addition to headlights any
such vehicle is equipped with any
auxiliary lights, projecting lights or
devices other than the rear lamps,
such auxiliary light or lights shall be
subject to all the restrictions Of this
section, regarding direction Of the
beam. II a spotlight be used on a
motor vehicle it shall be unlawful for
any person to direct it's rays towards
the eyes of the driver or occupants
of an approaching vehicle, or to the
left of the center OF the travelled way
when meeting another vehicle.
mo person shall operate motor
vehicle on any highway in this state
equipped with an electric bulb or
other lighting device of greater ca
pacity than 32 candle power no mat
ter how the same may be shaded or

FARM IMPLEMENTS SCARCE

"The demand for farm machinery
this year is greater than ever be-
fore" say Johnson G. Buck, local
Emerson-B rantingham dealers.
Unsettled labor conditions and a
shortage of materials have prevented
implement manufacturers from max
ing shipment as promptly as in for
mer years. An increasing demand
for tractors and power farming i'm
plements has induced many manu-
facturers to double their output on
these, consequently reduction in
light machinery such as plows, hay
tools, cultivators and harvesting ma
chinery has resulted. This means
that the farmers of this community
must place their orders for machines
early if they want them delivered
this spring and summer
Manufacturers have already sold
the years output of many ma
chimes. 1t would be good business
to order tractors now for fall deliv-
cry. II this is not done soon 1t will
be next to impossible to secure them
before next year"
