How to Improve the Honds Without Cost,
were elected
In France every freighting and mar-
ket cart, instead of ir juring the high-
way, improves it. Many of the tires
are ten joches wide. In the four
wheeled vehicles iu that country the
rear axle is about one foot longer than
the forward axle, and as a result the
rear wheels run in a line considerably
outside that prouuced by the front
wheels. After a few loaded wagons
have passed over the road it looks as if
a steam roller had been at work on it.
A national law in Germany provides
that wagons heavily loaded must have
tires not less than four inches wide,
In Austria the minimum for similar
vehicles is six and one-half {uches; in
Bwitzerland six inches,
