In the experi- ment one-half of each plot received complete fertilizer, while the other half was left unfertilized. In the un- fertilized portions the sow thistle were always larger and more vigor- ous than thosa in the fertilized sec- tions. The plants in the latter plots were dwarfed and showed no indica- tion of flowering this season. The population of Hanover as compiled in the recent census is 3.078. 'Ik i.w-i s.

But this disregard of every rule of common eourtesy is merely incidental. The real offense of the Road Hog is that he forces others to risk life and limb. He obstructs the vision of those drivers behind him and makes them either drive at his speed or risk a head-on collision in passing him. Probably no form of law-breaking on the highways causes directly or indirectly so varied a list of accidents as does middle-of-the-ro^.d driving. Every man -who drives a car helps to pay for the highways. Every motorist is entitled to use them safely. Why deprive any man of his right? Don't be a Road Hog.
