Automobiles Climb Fences.

In many parts of the West and Southwest where automobiles are numerous it is becoming common to drive one’s car over a fence instead* of stopping to open a gate, drive through, and then shut it. The new and quicker method Is made possible by- the construction of inclines which make It an easy matter to mount to the top of the barrier and then descend on the other side. The inclines are usually composed of two tracks, set the proper distance apart for automobile wheels and supported hy posts.—Popular Me ehanics Magazine.
