CITY ORDINANCE
IS CRITICIZED

CONTINUED from Page one.l
worth consideration of the public
The letter follows In eull:
Editor, The Casper Daily Tribune.
Casper. Wyoming.
Dear Sir:
81 noticed in your issue OF Novem.
Der II that the chief Of police in.
structs the public that Ordinance No.
l47-A, in Section Nj. a.. pertaining to
traffic is about to Se enforced. The
police headquarters has confined this
action. The ordinai.S= reads as fol
lows:
NO trucks or vehicles over two
tons In weight shall travel or proceed
over any portion or part of any pave
ment in the City of Casper. when the
ruck or vehicle is fitted with any
chains upon its wheels"
"rhis apparently is an ordinance
which has been on the statute books
Of the city for sometime. but has been
ignored heretofore. The ley and slip
perry condition OF the streets has
caused most of us TO put chains on
our vehicles, in order 10 prevent skid
ding, which apparently has been the
cause of resurrecting and bringing to
life this ordinance. As a matter OF
public safety, / believe 1t should not
be enforced. Trucks of any weight
are just as liable to skid as a pleasure
car. but II a tuck does skid ond then
comes in contest with the pleasure
car. It viii be the latter that suffers
and not the truck.
ut is hard to believe that chains on
trucks of any weight wifi damage the
asphalt paving when It is rs cold as
II is at the present time. Ii can read.
fly be seen that enforcement Of this
ordinance in the summer time when
the asphalt IS warm ard soft Is very
logical, however. one OF the talking
points of the asphalt salesman is the
fact hat asphalt wounds are self
healing.
"If the city requires the enforce
ment of this ordinance and a truck
..ct equipped with chains skids caus
ing loss OF life or injury to pedestrians
or damage to property. l believe that
the city should be held liable for said
damage and not the owner or driver
OF the truck.
I'm the safety work in cur organiza'
ton, We post bulletins issued by the
National Safety Council on all matters
pertaining to safety and at the pres.
ent time. n OF our largest posters
cautions employees to use their chains
in order TO prevent skidding Of cars
and trucks. This ordinance is in di
rect opposition to the slogan safety
First"
SIT should be borne in mind tina;
this city and community lives largely
on the oil business. which requires
the freighting of thousands Of tons Of
-upplies annually. At this time OF
year freighting on Wyoming roads is
task enough in itself without adding
any unnecessary burdens to those
doing the work and we should bear
in mind at all times that without this
business, Casper would still be a sheer
and COW town and therefore, it be
hooves us { tolerate some conditions
for this reason at least.
Lets look out o the safety Of the
public first and keep on the chains.
Every truly yours.

Safety Manager.

.RHUDARD FOR HOME
USE EASILY CROWN
Adapted Only to Sections Of
Country Where Ground
Freezes Four Inches.

Growing rhubarb for home use is
described as below in Farmers Bul-
iettn 1242. United States Department.
OF Agriculture:
''Rhubarb, sometimes called rie-
plant. is not adapted to the southern
States. but only to that part of the
country having a modern rainfall
and where the ground freezes TO n
depth OF four inches or more during
the winter. Everybody IN the regions
where 1t can be grown is familiar
with rhubarb as IL appears In bunches
upon the markets during the
spring. 1t Is. scarcely necessary 70
mention that the leaf stem Is the
part used and that the way TO use
IL is In pie or. better, in the form of
sauce. Rhubarb possesses fine die.
tetic qualities and acts as a natural
spring tonic.
"The same cultural directions
given for asparague win serve for
rhubarb, except that only five OF
six hills viii be needed 10 supply the
average family, and the hills should
be placed much farther apart than
for asparagus. The variety known
as Linnaeus Is most commonly
grown. As q rule, a few hills of
rhubarb are planted along the gar
den fence, where II will be out of
the way.
The usual method Of starting the
plants is to obtain pieces of root
from established hills and simply set
them In soil that has been deeply
spadsd and heavily manured. TIE
hills should be at least four feet
apart and the roots set three or four
inches below the surface. The hills
should be fertilized each year, the
same as for asparagus. No stems
should be pulled from the hills un.n
the second year, and comparatively
lew should be pulled before the third
season. The hills OF rhubarb should
be divided and reset In about seven
years, or they win become too thick
and produce slender stems.
The stems OF the rhubarb leaves
are frequently stung by an insect;
however. this does not often occur
until sfter the spring season. snd
very little harm results. Rhub4rb
La also troubled with one or two dIs-
cases, but up TO the present time
these have not interfered TO any ex.
tent with, the growing of rhubarb in
the home garden"

Appeared Privately.

Brig. Gen. William Mitchell, as
sistant chief OF the army air serv-
ice, was invited to appear infor-
mally before a group Of Congress
men because executive heads have
attempted to muzzle officers of the
army"
This was declared yesterday by
Congressman w. II. Stafford lRep)..
ing on the report that high naval
authorities would ask President
Harding and Secretary OF War
Weeks to discipline Mitchell IL he
repeated the address he made. last

General Mitchell showed motion

Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick,

TRACTOR IS GREAT
SAVER FOR FARMER
Costs for Maintenance When
Machine Is Idle Are Prac-
tioalIy Nothing.

Whenever and wherever tractors
have been employed In farm work
they have proven profitable; one OF
the very best evidences OF this fact
lies in the number sold and the ap-
parent avidity with which the
farmer takes" to them.
As labor savers and saver OF in.
yestment cost in animals and their
maintenance, there is a great DIFF.
ference in favor OF the tractor. No
matter how little the tractor is re
quired. it's maintenance and opera
ton costs are nil when idle. On the
other hand. animals require feding
ss6 days a year, are liable TO acci'
Gents. disease and fire, and must
have attendance from farm help. The
tractor is subject only to q low rate
of maintenance against depreciation
It's life is dependent upon care In
housing during idle times, and re
suits obtained very greatly offsei
any punative advantages claimed
for animals.
One of the chief factors controIlinl
successful tractor operation Is thu
speed with which acreage can b.
covered when speed means much al
seeding and planting time, and
greater depth TO which plowing cur
be done with ordinary tractors
against three and four horse plows
With tractors at present prices
and the scarcity of work horses, tbs
tractor holds every advantage.

|. PRAISED IN FRANCE
Recently Built Commercial
Edificee Are Masterpieces,
Paris Architect Says,

PARIS, April 15.-The praises OF
American architects, whose work
he describes as a new art In the
truest sense OF :the word are
sung by George wybo, a young
French architect.
The old skyscrapers OF New
York, he says, ''are not always the
hRppiest examples OF architectural
conception" but the newer office
buildings erected within the last
ten or fifteen years are described
as "impeccable In execution, we'll
proportioned, possessing harmon.
ious. lines, with decorative elements
OF sober taste, constructed of
splendid materials finely fash
ioned."
The sight Of these buildings
causes the Frenchman to recognize
the existence of a new art ''in the
truest sense OF the word. an art
capable OF making us feel strong
emotions similar TO those awakened
within us BY the power and
sptendor Of our cathedrals and GER
tain monuments Of the past in
Europe.
Referring to the tremendous
temples of commerce." NJ. Wybo
says, "all these buildings are diff.
ferent from one another, but each
in It's own style, in it's construc.
ton, form and architectural lines
is undeniably a masterpiece.
"It is regrettable that we French,
so ready TO welcome decadent art,
do not even know the names OF
the decorators. sculptors and
architects OF modern New York.
IAN these artists, working with
intelligence and method. have pro.
gressively freed themselves from
wornout conventions, and discard.
ing simple elements OF decoration
have succeeded rapidly In laying
down the rules OF an art OF which
we are seeing now only the early
manifestations and which, to our
honor, In a direct emanation OF our
own French styles"
