"The department funds are limited, and as the proper care of the parking strips and adjacent lands is the person 1 dnty of each property owner rather than an obligation of the public, the wtreet department urges and requests all resident property owners and the agents of non resident owners, to immediately have the tall grass and weeds properly wit and cleared away from the side walks throughout the city, in order that the street department may be relieved of the burden of this work. "This department is at present en gaged in constructing bridges and look ing after the largo amount of work in cident to street paving, and has neither, the men or the money to do this work, and therefore appeals to the pride and interest of every citizen to do his share without being personally notified or forced to do it by the city."
