INSPECT GRADING MACHINE, Mayor Paonesss and City Engineer Merian Watch Workings of New Tractor On Barnett Street. Mayor Paonessa and City Engineer Philip A. Merian inspected a new grading machine which was de- livered to the city yesterday, while it was in opcration on Barnett street this morning. The tractor is operated with one- third of the force used in the old type machine, was purchased at less than half the cost, and is capable of doing twice as much work, in the opinion of the mayor and the en- gineer. It is probable that another will be purokased later in the year. The addition to the mechanical cquipment of the department will make it possible to do grading work on all accepted and unaccepted streets Iying in the outskirts.
