Notice to Auto Drivers. There are a few drivers of automobiles in this city who have no regard for the law of the state nor the lives of its citizens, and I hereby request all law-abiding citizens to assist the officers in quenching this evil practice by filing an affidavit against any one who they know to be violating section 1047 c R. S. Ind., revision of 1914. It should not be a license for an industrious man with a family to jeopardise the lives of other industrious men with families. Done this nineteenth day of Julv 1915. CHARLES G. SPITLER.” [SEAL] Mayor. A Prolific Season for Garden Truck. Perhaps no one ever remembers a more prolific season for all kinds of garden truck than the present one. The unfortunate flat dweller in the city who doesn’t know what fresh vegetables are, would go into ecstasies over the splendid truck gardens we have in Rensselaer this sumer. Everyone having a little patch of ground planted to truck has been supplied with the finest vegetables one ever saw. and had a surplus. Lettuce, onions, radishes, beets, peas, beans, etc., have been so plentiful that the grocers could find no customers for any from their stores. Early potatoes were also a great crop, but nearly all have now been ruined in the last ten days by the excessive rains. Roasting ears are now on the market, and they too, where not damaged by the high water, are a prolific crop.
