Whereas in many provinces it has been found impossible to comply with the provisions of Act Numbered Seven hundred and seventy-four, prohibiting the use upon improved roads of carts with wheels having tires less than two and one-half inches in width and with wheels rigid with the axles, and of all sledges, owing to the difficulty of securing proper cart wheels, and the movement of crops in some provinces will therefore be seriously interfered with:
