IMPORTANCE OF WAGON ROAD One Drawback to Fall of Rain Is That Roads Are Made Impassable for Several Days. Ji — * But for one fact, all of us could re- Joice in this rain, meaning as much as it does to the growing crops. The one:drawback is the unfortunate fact that"the rain will make the roads al-’ most impassable for several days. But the rain is not to blame for this state of affairs. We are. We ought to have roads on which. the only effect of rain mould be to wash them clean—Just as 1tidges with the city pavements.. And it’s not for the joy-riders alone that we need such roads, says Wichita Eagle. If we had good roads, farmers, who can't work in their flelds aftér a rain, could do their hauling on such days. Now the rain that prevents working the fields prevents hauling to market, except light loads, and at a prohibitive cost. The wagon® haul of * mgricultural products is infinitesimal in distance, ‘as compared with the ' rail and water haul, yet it costs actually more, according to government sta- tistics. For. the benefit of the farmer we need good roads. ¢ MAINTAIN ROADS WITH DRAG No Better or Cheaper Way of Keeping Highways In Good Order Than by Using Implement. Road dragging 18 so simple an under- ¢aking, providing the road to be drag- ged Is first graded, drained and shaped properly, that a summary of its bene- fits ‘ cannot - be presented too often, writes George B. Harrison in Farmers Mail and Breeze. Anyone can make & P and even a boy can keep a plece of road in good shape with the proper fostruction at the beginning. A 10- jnch or 12-nch log between 8 and 9, feet long or two 8 by 12 planks with 2'by 6 reinforcing strips of the same; :enxtb, four cross sticks, a chain, s for the platform and a metal Wearing strip are certainly procurable anywhere. ' The theory in road dragging which proved practicable for road im- provement i8 to smooth and shape up the puddled earth of a road to fill the ruts and holes and force the water off the roadway. “Puddled” earth on a road is the wet earth which has been worked up by traffic so that it is dense and when compacted will notlet the' _water seep away. If this compaecting Is done without any direction ruts and holes appear and hold the water and - make a bad road. But if the puddled earth be spread smoothly over the sur- face of the road with somewhat of a rounded effect it dries firm and hard, Road Drag Hitch. and the water, instead of standing in the road and making the holes deeper, must run off to the side—and the trav- eler has a good road. The road dragger, or “dragman,” as De usually is called, s like a clay work- er when he shapes up t puddled earth and smooths the road. He puts the ‘surface in condition and gets the standing water off, and the roadbed dries 1 that condition instead-of hold- ing the water and letting the traffic work ‘the ruts deeper. The dragman could not shape this up with dust any more than the clay worker could:fash. fon his image with dry dirt. But if he gets out right after a rain, while the édrth 1s puddied, he can work his rond end the traffic will help him, for the water will be forced out and off the surface. That is why it is so import- ant to drag when the roads are not too dry to puddle or compact. Perhaps the traffic is sufficlent to cut up the road after it is dragged, and this dis- « courages the man who does the drag- ging. But In that case he should fol- low over the road and do it again if necessary and win the fight for a good road. If he waits until the road is dry because the vehicles rut up his dragged rond he will simply plane off the surface and not remove the trou- ble. If he drags a second or perhaps a third time he will work toward a . hard surface, impervious to water and with a-minimum of dust, which is the evidence of a well-dragged highway. Perhaps, if the vehicles cut a road when it is first being dragged, the driv- ers may he persuaded to drive by the side, if that is feasihle, while the road ia first drying out or freezing. Follow the. Good Road. Follow the good road and it will lead to a good town and by many a good farm. Prngglng Public Roads. It is not difficult to prove that drag- ging the public roads regularly at the proper time probably is th€ most eco- nomical method of highway improve- ment. Road Dragging Is Ahead. Even at maximum costs road drag- ging is ahead of other maintenance both as to results and for economy. Use Full Width of Road. Get the traffic to use the full width of the roadway.
