ILLEGAL SIGNS IN
IPENNSYLVANIA.
It is not generally known that vast
numbers of advertising signs exist in
the State of Pennsylvania in defiance
of the law. These signs are erected
mostly by concerns doing a national
business, who are aware of the law,
but who count on ability to violate it
with impunity because the law of-
ficers of many communities do not
act. Local business men are less fre-
quent offenders, not knowing the
law. Candidates for office also break
the law, usually in ignorance of it.
The tens of thousands of tin tobac-
co signs, soap signs, bread signs,
and the like, tacked on trees, tele-
graph poles, ete, within the limits
of highways in the State of Pennsyl-
vania, are all illegal and are by an act
of March 10, 1903, declared to be pub-
lic nuisances, which anyone may re-
move and abate without notice to the
offender, who is subject to a penai-
ty of not less than five dollars nor
more than twenty dollars for each of-
fender upon conviction.
All signs and banners swung across |
the streets are clearly illegal, and no
mayor, burgess, council of commis-
sioners have any right to grant per-
mission to erect such intrusions.
All sign bills on the fences erect-
ed on the sidewalk or street to pro-
tect the work of tearig down or
erecting buildigs and all signs on
contractors’ sheds, etc., placed on the
street or highway are illegal and a
“public nuisance.”
ACETYLENE BI-PRODUCT
VALUABLE FERTILIZER
A Johnstown florist has discovered
a new fertilizer which is of great in-
terests to users of calcium carbide
He discovered that the bi-product of
a carbide lamp, which is generally
considered worthless, is one of the
finest fertilizers he ever tried. He
now has miners saving the slacked
carbide from their lamps for him thus
giving miners an opportunity to cut
down their illuminatng expenses in
the sale of this bi-product.
He discovered this by accident. A
miner came along and carelessly emp
tied his slacked carbide from his
lamp on one of his fiower plants, but
fortunately it was a stunted one
which seemed to be doomed to die
