Concrete Culvert End.

Large culverts and bridges should
always be designed by competent civil
engineers and constructed under their
supervision. Indeed, very often the
advice OF such an engineer In regard
to the smaller waterways might be
sought with profit. Money is too often
wasted from lack of knowledge con
corning the proper sizes of pipes and
culverts.
In many localities It is the custom
to extend to the center of the road
driveways leading from adjacent lands
to the road TO meet It's center grade.
This practice makes II necessary to

SUPPRESSION OF A BORE.

Among the many kinds of fools
there are in the world place should
be reserved for the man who, being
enthusiastic over the work of some
artist or the acting OF some actor or
the poems of some poet whom you re-
gard with little favor, says: Don't
you think Soandso is great?" You have
no desire to engage in an argument
that you know will be profitless and
you grudgingly answer: "Yes-rath-
err" 81 think he's the greatest man
in his line now living, don't your" he
viii go on. You still have the wish to
shut him up by agreeing with him, and
you therefore answer: "Uh huh
Then, instead of understanding, as he
should, that you wish to let the sub
ject be dropped he begins to tell you
his reasons for believing Soandso is
the greatest man on earth and follows
you when you cross to another corner
of the room on the plea that you wish
to get out of a draught or that you
must have a breath of fresh air. Hav-
ing planted himself in front of you, he
continues to impart information con-
corning the object of his admiration
until you are compelled, in justice to
yourself, to take your hat and run, or
otherwise force him to notice your
lack of interest, thus causing him to
regard you with pity and contempt.

DRAG THE ROADS.
Work II Done While Roads Are Soft
Is Most Effective.

The spring of the year is the time
when the work of road-dragging must
commence II the roads are to be
brought into a good condition through
this process. Dragging Is work that
must be done at the very muddiest
time to be most effective. Some com
munities have waited till midsummer
or fall before beginning this work, and
the results have not been very salts.
factory.
In the spring the frost coming out
OF the ground leaves the roads muddy
to great depth. The whole mass IL
then plastic and will yield under the
passing of the road drag. The glaz'
ing is then easily done and when the
good weather comes the heat of the
sun dries the surface into a hard mass
that remains so for long time. In
states where great advance has been
made in the science Of road dragging
the major part of the work has been
done in the early spring, After the
foundation work Is done the work can
be later continued after heavy rains
but these rains do not usually wet the
road in to a very great depth.
The benefits of dragging have been
demonstrated in thousand localities
where the soil has in it enough clay
to glaze under the passing of the road
drag. We believe that every com,
munity where the roads are not sandy
in nature can afford to take up this
work and give the roads treatments
that will insure good roads for the
balance Of the year,
