Hoads Breaking Up and Heavy Hauling Is Prohibited.

The Democrat man and family autoed to Goodland Wednesday afternoon. The roads were quite smooth going over but had become very 'sloppy on the return 'trip. More hauling of corn was being done between Rensselaer and Goodland, than we ever remember of seeing at one time before, the high price and the proximity of the assessing ,season causing the farmers to hustle their surplus crop to market. County Road Supt. ijlylvester Gray, was also in that locality Wednesday to see his aged mother, who is very poorly, and he objected strenously to the heavy loads of corn that were being hauled. There is a law against heavy hauling when the roads are soft, and Mr. Gray says that he will be forced to prosecute haulers unless they observe this law. His notice on the subject appears in another column.
