Jan. 19. (Special to The Statesman.) The Polk coun ty county court has issued orders closing two more roads in the county to heavy traffic. The road between Lewlsville and Falls City which was formerly one of the best pieces of roadway tn the county has been cut to pieces dur ing the past year by trucks hauling large loads of lumber. It was closed by the court and loads not exceeding 500 feet of lumber and one-half cord of wood are forbidden use of the road.. Auto trucks are also banned on this piece of highway. The Dnell-Sheridan highway has also been closed to heavy hauling, not more than 1500 pounds being perimtted to be hauled on the road at one time and then only on traeks equipped with pneumatic tires. Poik county formerly had some of the best roads in the state, but the increase in the number of trucks and tbe heavy hauling over the roads during the wlner months hns cut up the roads . fo such an extent that drastic action bad to be taken be fore the county highways were cut up beyond repair.
