charge of d. Ward King. the inventor
Of the drag. who has done much more
work in the Hawkeye state than in
this one. Over 100 drags are reported
in use in Taylor county. Iowa. and
after a trip through "a towns canvass
Of the district by agents of the railway
which introduced Mr.. King. showed
that there were pa drags in use.
But Illinois is making some progress
Down at Danvers there Is one rural
mail route that has organized and
there are 10 Grags being used on 80
miles of road. IL is proposed TO drag
this entire route regularly hereafter
This movement was brought about by
the personal efforts of the mail carrier
and now the farmers are very much
interested.
Make Drngs Free.
In some places the road commission
ers are offering TO make the drags and
give them to any OF the farmers who
will agree to use them. This plan
might be followed in Rock Island coun-
~. II would be the best possible in
vestment of township road funds
There are undoubtedly, scores, prob
ably hundreds of farmers in this vicin-
ity who would use the drags if they
had them AT hand. There are not many
now who still argue that this form of
road Improvement is not worth while
but there are so many who are not
clear just how TO go about making a
drag or have not the right material at
hand. or they simply procrastinate and
nothing is done. II some one could hit
upon a scheme that would place the
drags in the hands OF those who would
agree to use them. the whole problem
would be greatly simplitied.
Prizes for Best Roads.
Another idea has been taken up in |
some cities Commercial associations |
are offering prizes for the best mile |
or half mile of dragged road at the end |
of Il given period. In some cases sew
eral prizes are offered. say $25 for |
the first prize. $40 for the second and |
So for the third This would be good |
idea for Rock Island business men to
take up. Drags might be provided and |
prizes offered for the best road made /
by Their use.
While this city is peculiarly situated |
in that nearly all its country trade |
comes over one road from Milan it is
even more vitality interested in good |
roads than a city situated alone in the
midst of a farming community, for
Rock Island is rendered inaccessible
to a larger degree by bad roads than
a city easier 4 reach from it's farming
Rock Island needs interurbans. but
It also needs good roads to the coun-
try and action to promote the latter
cannot be taken any too soon.
