Dangerous Corners.

In rural districts, where all road machines are allowed to clip along at 25 miles an hour, corner gardens should not be planted so that drivers may not see across a small triangle next to the road intersection. With the coming of the automobile It has been found necessary to modify many of our ideals in home building, and the up-to-date designer or planter should have an eye to avoidance of accidents at rural corners. Plant low-growing material back for at least 20 feet from the corner and then a cluster of trees is quite permissible and quite what one “auto” have.
