NIGHT SAVE COLLISIONS

This is the time of the year when
a little cutting out of distractions
at sharp turns in the roads saves COL
lisions of autos. In some places a
rank growth of weeds and in others
the growth of lower limbs on trees
obstructs the view of drivers and
calamity follows.
There is such place at what is
known as the Yosts corner a quarter
of mile west of Snake river bridge
AVID another at the turn a quarter Of
mile north of that at Smiths cor
ner. A still worse one exists at the
Swan Berg corner below Rockford,
where the road is favorable to a swift
run around the corner and many
drivers go blindly around it not see
ing far ahead. A few minutes work
taking off the lower branches and
the waste growth would be very valu
able insurance in favor Of life and
limb.
We suggest that people who know
of such dangerous turns close to,
their places shall sharpen the ak or
pruning knife and save turning their
house into hospital some time.
