Horses a Nuisancel
One of the biggest menaces to
automobile traffic, especially at
night is the roaming of cattle and
horses on the public highways. What
might nave been a very serious ac-
cident occurred last Saturday night,
when an auto, driven by Thomas
Ross had a head-on collision with a
horse, belonging to Jake Sikora, on
the highway south of town, near the
Henry Hanson ranch. The machine
was badly damaged and the horse
sustained injuries that later necessi-
tated it being killed. Fortunately
Mr.. Ross escaped without injury.
This is not the first accident of
this sort that has occurred in this
vicinity and the time now seems
opportune for the county commits
sioners to pass an ordinance pro-
hibiting this nuisance and thereby
possibly averting fatal accident in
the future.-Mason Valley News.
