HOW TO IMPROVE POOR ROADS

While road building may be con-
sidered by some an art, there are
few but believe that the roads can
be made better by little labor on
the part of man and teams. In this
community and at this season of the
year the roads are in a most de-
plorable condition and apparently
little is being done on the part Of
either the county officials or indi-
viduals to remedy the evil.
There is an easy and simple way
to get at a decided improvement in
the roads at very small cost and
with little labor. The Pacific High
way Association points out a way
and The Herald gladly gives the
information, together with a cut
showing the drag put to practical
use. The Herald hopes that the
ranchers will take up the matter
and improve the roads in their To-
cality in systematic manner. Here
is the way to go about 1t:
Build a light drag. One can do
things with light drag that cannot
be done with a heavy one. And then
one can weight a light drag and so
make it heavy. If 1t needs to be
heavy for some special occasion. But
If drag is heavily built of heavy
wood, how can 1t be lightened? Do
not build the drag too long especially
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1910-12-21

and your own position on the drag
you will be able to meet the most
varying conditions.
AT the start a plain wooden edge
to the drag Is sufficient, but after
several months work, as the road
grows level and hard, you will fni
1t wise to put 3 or feet of iron
on the ditch end OF the front slab.
There may come times when you,
will wish for sharp steel. But by
running corn cultivator or a disk
over the sides OF the road ahead of
the drag you will likely find a piece
of wagon tire sufficient I am my
self partial to the sharpenSd steel.
but 1t makes trouble at bridges and
culverts and calls for more careful
driving. Whether iron or steel Is
used. it should NOT DE allowed to
project more than 4 inch below the
wood.
1t Is probable that you can I'M
prove the road by dragging it the
moment the drag is finished, no
matter what the condition of the
earth may be. Under any circur,.-
stances a certain amount of expe-.
rience can be obtained. ordinarily,
however, it is best to use the drag
when the soil is moist, but not
sticky.

down within an inch of the ground
and well out to the end of the fropt
slab. Notch it in; drive the rear
slab back to the marks, catching the
brace, and then wedge the stakes Sc
curely. If this is well done the
brace will never escape. At the
front side saw the ends of the stakes
off flush with the slab; at the rear
allow the projecting ends to remain
Their presence at the rear will serve
two purposes. They will answer,
without words, the question of how
the slabs are fastened together. And
they come very handy at times
when you wish to lift the drag.
Make a platform of inch boards to
drop between tho slabs, on which
the driver may stand. Nail the
boards cleats, being mindful to ar
range the cleats so that they will not
interfere with the cross stakes Of
the drag Cut the cleats about an
inch shorter than the places they
are to fit and nail the boards half
an inch from the ends of the cleats
Use at least three boards and space
them an inch apart so that the
earth, which at times is likely to pile
up against the front Slab and fall
back on the platform, can readily
sift through. Otherwise there viii

6 inches between the ditch end of
the front slab and the hole in the
ditch end of the front slab; mark
and bore the three holes. Thus
when they are pinned together, the
ditch end of the front slab will pro-
ject some 16 inches further toward
the ditch than the rear slab.
Now prepare the stakes to Join
the slabs. 1 prefer stakes cut from

through. If a hedge is not conve-
nient, rip some pieces out of a 2
inch oak plank; full 2 inches square
is sufficient. Shave the ends of
the stake and slip the slabs on until
the slabs are within 80 inches of
each other; then mark each stake
with lead pencil to show the place
where the slab fits. You are now
ready to wedge the stakes into the
front slab.
Don't laugh when I caution you to
split the stakes and drive the wedges
at right angles to the grain of the
slab When you laugh you prove
you need no caution. But I have
heard of men who split the slab for
lack of knowledge or the caution.
Drive the rear slab on the
stakes or 8 inches from the pen
ell marks and arrange the brace.
Put the front end of the brace
