NEW SNOW PLOw TESTED

A giant snowplow, capable oi
keeping clear fifty miles of roadway
a day and larger than any of those
now in use in the State, has been ad-
dhd to the equipment of the State
Roads Commission.
After studying results of test ov-
er a snow banked forty-mile stretch
of road between Elkton and Chester
town, John N. Mackall, chairman OF
the commission, authorized purchase
of the plow at cost of $4,000.
This plow," Mr.. Mackall said, lis
the first 1 have ever seen capable of
removing snow from the roadway
and hurting it over fences and cap
able, too, of fast travelling to reach
any point where it is needed"
In ability at snow removal the new
plow, Mr. Mackall said, is approach
ed only by the caterpillar tractor
type now in use in the mountains of
Western Maryland. The tractors
however, are slow of speed and are
at disadvantage when needed at
distant points.
The present plan, it was said, is
to buy three or four of the new type
plows.
"It went through the drifts on that
road from Elkton to Chestertown as
though there was no snow there"
Mr.. Mackall declared. ut picked
up the snow and threw it over the
fences and left clear path for auto
mobiles. The plow, which itself
weighs ton, is very oblique and
cuts into the snow banks"
A huge 100 horse power truck
furnishes motive power for the plow.
The truck has four driving wheels
and a pushing power of $4,000 lbs.
and weighs, unloaded, 10000 lbs.
1t will cost $50 day to operate.
"It should save its price along in
he first duplicate of last months
snowstorm," Mr.. Mackall declared.
It takes the snow right off the road;
to do that with any other type would
need hand labor, and hand labor on
hat Elkton- -Chestjertown job would
have cost $4,000 for the one re-
moval."
The plow is to be stationed at
Chestertown, under present plans.

GARAGE AND DWELLING BURN
Family Barely Escape With Lives

The frame structure, along the
State road, near Oakwood occupied
as garage by Wilson Reynolds, was
totally destroyed by fire, at an early
hour on Saturday morning. A por-
tion of the building was used as a
dwelling by Mr.. Reynolds and his
family, and the fire had made such
progress when discovered, that they
barely escaped with their lives, los
ing all their house hold effects, and
most of their clothing.
The blaze was discovered at about
1:45 O'Clock by Mr.. Reynolds, who
aroused the members of his family,
and then telephoned to Rising Sun
for the Community Fire Company,
The engine was soon manned and
made a quick run, but the building
was doomed.
The fireman succeeded in pulling
a few pieces of furniture out of the
burning building with pike poles.
and prevented the flames from
spreading to other buildings, but the
garage and dwelling, together with
nearly all contents, including house
hold effects, and two or three autos
were totally destroyed.
The loss falls heavily upon Mr..
and his family, the fire
sweeping away almost all. their
household goods and personal effects.
The origin of the fire is not
known. There was a partial insur
ance on the property.
