1t is important in using grader
to avoid building up the road too
much at one time. A road gen
orally built up by frequent use
Of the grader will last better
than if completed at operation.
The foreman frequently thinks
his road must be high in the fl s
instance. He piles up material
from 10 inches to foot in depth
0 ly to learn, with the arrival of
the first rain, that he has fur
nished the material for as many
inches of mud. All material
should be brought up in thin
layers, each layer well puddled
and firmly packed by roller or
traffic before the next is added.
A common mistake is to crown
too high with the road machine
on a narrow road.
The split log drag should be
used to fill in ruts and smooth
the road when not too badly
washed. The drag possesses
great merit and is so simple in
construction and operation that
every farmer should have ole. A
special article will be published
later telling how to make ana
use the dag.

Helpful Suggestions,

A successful man is one who
makes his mistakes when they
don't count against him.
Don't borrow trouble-any of
your friends will gladly give it
to you.
A long face gathers few
friends. A smile is potential,
magnetic and dispels trouble.
Therefore, smile.
Ifa man does the best he can
and declines to brag about it he
is pretty good chap to tie to.
Between the two eVifs-the
kicker and the knOcker-there' s
no choice.
A man seldom gets more thar
a dime for a hard duck story
get busy and get VS..
Chronic l1ickers keep hammer
ing away until they fin; lily knocl
themselves out.
Sand is one of the importan
ingredients in the elixir of sue
cess.
Some people never fool them
selves more than when they thinl
they are fooling others.
It's the things you don't sa,
that cause the least regret.
