provide proper drainage and grad.
ing. A well drained road will not
cut into deep ruts, which are so bad
on neglected dirt roads. Whenever
possible the road-bed should be
worked with road-grader and
packed firm with a heavy roller.
After each rain or thaw the road
bed should be carefully gone over
with a splitlog drag, which will
draw the dirt toward the center of
the road and will fill up all the ruts.
The drag is usually made and oper-
ated by progressive farmers who,
after each rain, if the road requires
it, drag the road from their gate to
the gate of their nelghbor, who is
expected to do the same. Where
ever this plan has become we'll es-
tablished, the roads have been great
ly improved. The drag does the
most good if used when the ground
is just beginning to dry, that is
moist but not sticky.
A split log drag, properly used,
mesns a smooth, serviceable earth
road free from ruts, mudholes and
weeds, also a reduction of mud in
wet weather and dustin dry weather,
all at very small cost.

Good Roads

The following Is an essay on good
roads written by Miss Maude Aba
nathy, who has finished the common
school course at johnson school dis.
trict thirty:
Good roads ougbtto be maintain
ed by and for all the people. They
would make it possible for the
farmers to visit the churches, the
schools, the postoffice and his
neighbors without difficulty. They
not only save time but reduce the
cost of overland travel. Bad roads
increase the labor and expense of
getting the crops to market. In
fact, perishable products may 60 en-
tirely to waste before they can he
taken to market during wet seasons
when the roads which have had no
attention become muddy and impos.
sible. In the winter the mud freezes
and makes the roads rough that
travelling over them is difficult and
dangerous, Good roads enable us
to haul larger loads and with much
less wear and tear on our horses and
vehicles.
! 1t has been SAID that the roads of
a county indicate the kind of civil.
zation and progress that exist in it.
1t is also notable that in communi.
ties where the roads have been i'm.
proved socialconditions are improv.
ed, So Iwould suggest that we
improve our roads for the better.
ment of our country and ourselves.
In improving roads it Is import.
ant that the steep hills be avoided
{by cutting down at the top and
filling IN at the bottom or by put.
ting in bridges. This is often ex
pensiye and when possible, in lay,
ing out a road, it should go around
the hills, even if it is a greater dis
tance, for the increase in the haul
ing capacity is more than the de
crease IN travel, AS a rule, on dir
/ roads, The grade should not Be MOI,

John R. Kizer

All honor to John r. Kizer. His
work during the last two years has
been of untold value to the people
of Randolph county, especially those
who till the soil. The people of
Randolph county are already reap,
ing the benefits Of the great work
inaugurated by him two years ago.
The organization of the Boys Corn
Club was one of the greatest move
ments ever made for the developing
of the farming lands Of this county
and for the scientific cultivation of
the same. The results of this scien.
tifc cultivation will be realiz d
more in future years, for this Is only
the beginning of a great forward
movement along this line. We are
very sorry that Mr. Kizer will not
accept his former position for an
other year in our county, but, as a
matter ofcoursc his fitness for this
kind of work has caused him to be
called to larger fields of labor and
we can but wish him the very larg
est measure of success. The man
who follows Mr.. Kizer will find the
way already blazed out and many
of the difficulties encountered by
Mr. Kizer have already been over.
come. The work will be much
easier now than heretofore and we
sincerely hope that some worthy
man, one who is competent and
patient as Mr.. Kizer has been, may
be chosen as his successor.

gQedtT ss.--t IS where there is
a road around every section and
quartet section. In this way no
one wOnld have to travel more than
half mile to reach the junction of
the road he is travelling with the
nearest cross road.
1t isimportant to know the effect
of the width of the tire on the
amount OF draft required to move
load. There is no advantage in
wide tires on pavement and very
hard roads. But for ordinary
country hauling the wide tire offers
several advantages. Narrow tires
are very Obstructive to road surfaces,
but wide tires roll and harden them
like a roller.
A road should have a smooth
hard surface and reasonable level
grade, and it should have such a
foundation that it will keep its
smooth surface in wet weather as
well as in dry, that is. its good
qualities should be there to stay.
Drainage is an important problem
for the road builder. The road
must be so laid out and constructed
as to shed water as quickly as pos
sible to prevent damage to the sur
face and foundation. The surface
of the road,bed should be slightly
elevated IN the middle so that the
ram water will run quickly to the
side bitches before it has time to
soak into the foundation. The
slope from the center 10 elther slue
should be downward one inch to the
foot. ss.s 'l q
There are many kinds OF roads in
use in different parts Of the country,
but for general purposes they may
be cIassed as: Common dirt roads;
sand and clay roads; shell'rock
roads; brick paved roads; Macadam
roads; Telford roads; cobble-stone
roads; block.payed roads; asphOlt
roads; oiled roads. "w
For many years to come, the dirt
road mileage will probably be tal
greater than that of surfaced roads
hence the care of them presents q
problem that should engage th'

But sanity and God returned to-

There were many ghastly graves
