Drag the Road.

My Dear Mr.. Editor:
The new road law which went
into effect the first of last Jan.
uary is now on trial and we
hope to see it put into effect so
a marked Improvement in our
system of road work will be
shown at the end of the wear.
The State Board of Agriculture
has demonstrated the effective.
ness and cheapness of the road
drag in practically every coun-
ty in the state. Through your
paper, I wish to call attention
to the farmers and particularly
to the overseers, of a provision
in the new law for maintaining
the roads with the drag. Sec.
ton IA, page 403, Laws 1907,
provides that the overseer may
contract with the farmers living
along the line of road for drag
ging the road whenever it is
necessary. Now. if the farm.
ers will cooperate with the
overseers in carrying this pro-
vision into effect and the over
seers will contract with the
farmers for dragging the road |
for so much per hour or so much
per mile, we will see a marked |
difference in the condition of
our roads IN a short time. This
will not require the expenditure
of any more money than has
been made in the past but will |
use the money in such a way as
to bring better results. The
plan of voluntary dragging has
been a success in some neigh.
borhoods but men soon become
tired of doing what they consid.
er more than their share of road |
work and the dragging is neg
lected; but under this pro.
vision of the law the farmer
agrees to do the work for a
stipulated price per hour and at
the same time he is getting the
benefit of an improved road
along the side of his farm and
tor this reason will take more
interest in the work and will
feel under obligations to do the
work at the proper time.
I trust the country press will
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS this move
nent to have every mile of dirt
road in the county maintained
with the drag. This may be
lone now with the present
:unds and will lead to more per-
nanent improvement when the
'unds are available.
Yours truly,
