crop is grazsd Of most Of the ma
nure goes back to the soil. Even on
hay land where the crop is removed,
the soil is held and the only plant
food taken away is that required to
produce the crop.
If legumes can be grown with the
grass, il will be a decided advantage
to the farmer, the specialists say.
Japan clover and red top should give
good results for pasture mixture on
poor sour soil. II hay is to be grown
on similar soil, limestone and clo-
yer should give good results. All
grass and hay land not in a high
state Of fertility should produce
greater yields II given an application
of phosphate fertilizer.

British Adopt Raised
Curve as Used i'm Ut. S.

According to recent announcement
from the Offices of the Permanent In
ternational Association Of Road Con-
crosses in Paris the British Ministry
Of Transport has directed its divi-
sional road engineers to see that local
officials in constructing highways in
England allow for super-elevation of
roadways on corner curves wherever
desirable.
The action was taken following in
~vestigation and recommendation by
the British Roads Improvement AS
sociation, which pointed out the bene-
fits to be gained through banking at
sharp curves in the way of safety to
traffic.
In the event Of two vehicles meeting
at curve, it was declared, they could
be maneuvered on banked curve with
more certainty and less risk of skid
ding. It was also declared that there
would be much less wear upon tn,
pavement. French road engineers Ion,
ago adopted the banked curve, and il
some parts Of the United States they
are now In use.

Allur.irg New Ideas
In Body Design to
Grace Auto Salon
Developments Not Confined
to European Cars; Several
of American Makes VIII
Show Chassis Changes

Important developments In chassis
design will be disclosed at the eigh-
teenth annual Automobile Salon, open
ing at the Hotel Commodore on De-
cemher 8. Four-wheel brakes, special
spring suspensions and even straight
eight motors will be found to be almost
the rule rather than the exception.
Sleeve valve motors also will figure
among the major Developments, while
minor changes and refnements are said
to be numerous in the new models of
high grade cars to be on exhibition.
These developments are not confined
to the cars from seven European ma
tions which are represented this year,
as at least two Of the fourteen makes
of high priced American cars to be
shown embody marked changes in ac-
cepted chassis design. Also the foreign
group includes several of the postwar
types of small and medium sized cars
as well as the large, high powered ma
chimes for which the European makers
have long been famous.
As in previous years the Automobile
Salon will serve to introduce the new
styles and fashions in custom coach
work. According to precedent, the car
rosserieres are keeping secret their new
body designs until the exhibition opens,
but the twelve prominent firms having
special coachwork exhibits are certain
to show interesting developments in
their latest body creations.

pecially at Curves, Are
Alleged to Divert Atten.
tion and Cause Accidents
Protest Made by A. A. A.
Offer Many s,,g-
gestions for Crusade TO
Wipe Out Road Placards

Protests against the alleged deface-
ment OF highways by unsiehtly road
sign billboards are being received at
National Headquarters of the Ameri-
can Automobile Association almost
daily. According to A. A. A. officials
there seems to, be great and crying
movement against the use of these
bliiboards among the membership Of
the A. A. A. in every part Of the coun-
try.
All sorts Of remedies. for the abate-
ment arc suggested in these letters,
from the enactment of suitable legis-
lation to refusal OIL the part of
motorists to purchase any articles so
advertised.
Accident Menace Feared
In addition to the marring of high
ways, it is declared by many of the
objectors that the billboard consti-
tutes an absolute menace to the mo-
torist by attracting his attention from
the road ahead and often causing
more or less serious accident.
Il believe that the road sign bill
board should be abolished" said
George c. Diehl, president of the A.
A. a. "These signs serve as dis
tinct menace to motorists, especially
when they are placed, as many of them
are, at sharp curve or a road inter
section. A motorist driving along the
highway and approaching such sharp
curve or road intersection wants to
see what is around that curve or down
the intersecting road much more than
he wants to see a huge sign.
Word of Warning Given
"The day Of the billboard and the
need of such methods of advertising is
past. The class Of people who use the
highways and to whom such signs pre-
sumably appeal are class that read
the newspapers and magazines, and
who are governed largely in their pur-
chases by the advertisements Of reli-
able products advertised in reliable
newspaper or magazine. 1t would ap-
pear to me that the intelligent adver-
tiser would soon become aware of this
fact and would transfer the money
spent on biilboards to legitimate news
papers and magazines, where such ad-
vertising would have weight.
with the general trend Of opposi-
tion TO billboard advertising Develop
ing over the country, as is indicated
by letters received at the A. A. A. head
quarters, it can be but a question of
time until the American public, will
take things into it's own hands and find
some means for abatement"

The Department Of Motor Vehicles
OF Connecticut, in cooperation with
the State Police Department, other no
ice departments in the state, the
highway Department and the Automo-
D le Grub of New Haven, has devised q
system to handle traffic, based on the
following essentials:
SAFETY and convenience to the motor
itlE public.
Providing sufficient number al
through routes SO that no highway will
DC called upon to carry more than it's
proportionate amount Of traffic.
Avoiding, in SO far as it is possible

Providing as many traffic avenues as
possible to enter the city of New Haven
Providing q sufficient number o.
parking spaces at the end of each route
to take care OF all motor vehicles.
+ A perfect system of signs for The
guidance of the motor vehicle operator
Restricting certain streets in New
Haven TO pedestrians, certain other
streets for streetcar traffic and certain
other streets for motor vehicle traffic
Providing all through lanes in New

Special preparations have been COM

highway officials, anxious to avoid con-
gestion, have sent out warnings to all
automohilists TO operate carefully, to
obey to the letter the traffic rules and
regulations and to allow plenty OF time
TO go to and from the game.
A route from New York to- New
Haven suggested by the American Au-
tomobile Association Is as follows:
Leaving New York via Fifth Avenue
to Fifty-ninth Street, through Central
Park to 10th Street, into Lenox Ave-
nue. to t45th Street, crossing the bridge
to Mott Avenue and into the Grand
Concourse as far as Fordham Road;
thence east on Fordham Road to the
Pelham Parkway, through New Ro-

The detour that has been in effect
all summer at Port Chester will be
completed about December /. This
does not interfere with traffic, mas
much as one-half of the road is open.
