PLANS OF THE KING ROAD DRAG.

PLANS OF THE KING ROAD DRAG.
Observation-Disclosures each rain drive up
side of the wheel track and back on
the other side at least once with drag
in position to throw the earth to the
center. Ride on the drag. Haul at an
angle of forty five degrees. Gradually
widen the strip dragged as the road I'M
proves. To round up the road better
pillow shallow furrow occasionally each
side of the dragged strip and work the
loose dirt to the center
done so. l have no quarrel with these
men. For years l have been saying
that any tool which will smooth the
surface of the highway and move a lit
tie earth to the center of the road is a
good drag. But | also would remind
the reader that l have myself spent a
great deal of time years ago trying to
improve the drag and gave it up as i'm
possible. With all Difference to the
opinion of others l feel that one might
as well try to improve an AK or a
spade. | have seen and know of a
great many different styles of drags.
Some are made of one slab with a
tongue, others are built in the shape of
a V and used with broad end to the
front, working both sides of the road
ut once and so on. Any one them
Is better than no drag and .,.I i'm
prove the road if properly used.
However, l have been asked to tell
how to make and use a split log drag
and, with the concessions made above
to Indicate that | am more anxious the
road should be cared for than to insist
1t must be cared for by any particular
style Of drag, I will confine myself to
my task.
The best form of material for build
ing Is the log. The straighter the log
and the straighter its grain the better
Other things being equal l prefer the
lightest log. Weight, when needed,
can be added to light drag, but n
drag constructed of heavy material
cannot be lightened The weight of the
driver on the drag will generally prove
sufficient to do good work. If given
my choice l would prefer a log Of the
sort of wood in the following list, in
the order given: Red cedar, walnut,
elm, cypress, soft maple, box elder,
with oak, ash and hickory in class by
themselves and last on the list. Even
cottonwood or willow is preferable to
the heavy woods.

UNNAMED

A number of the crew of the A. H
S. S. Nebraskan, Captain Knight, left
the big vessel, soon after she locked
last evening, and declared that they
would not work longer in the freighter.
one who had signed on as an oiIer
and who claims to have been disrated
by the engineer, made an effort to
ship as stoker aboard the United States
Revenupe Cutter Manning, put after
everything had been arranged satisfac-
torily, missed the vessel by less than a
minute. She had just cast loose her
lines from the naval wharf. He was
anxious to take the Behring Sea cruise
aboard the Manning His father was
manager of a cannery in that region
and he wanted to go over the ground
again.
An assistant engineer of the Nebras-
kan walked to the Office of the United
States Shipping Commissioner this
morning and wanted to sign off. He
was told that it would be necessary for
the captain also to appear at the office.
Both the assistant in the engine room
and the oiler declare that the food
aboard the Nebraskan is not fit to eat
and that there is not enough food IN
the first place. They informed the
Commissioner that they would at once
take their cases to the United States
Marshal In the meanwhile the Ne
braskar is looking for crew.
One of the men claims that the su-
gar given the crew was obtained by
sweeping sections of the hold of what
| leaked from the sacks of upward cargo
and thtat straws, cigarette butts and
! bagging would float to the top of the
coffee. If this is true the men have
an opportunity to prove it,
