THE HOW OF GOOD DIRT ROADS

"My first implement for dragging
the road in front of my farm near
Maitland, Mo-. )" said y. Ward
King the Good Roads exper, at the
Hetrtck Wednesday afternoon, "wa S
used primarily for breaking corn
stalks in my field. Ii helped the
road and when it was broken | used
a split log and soon had the best
piece of road in the United States" 4"
MIR. King then stared that not
only did he get smooth road but
also one that dried more quickly
than undragged roads so that event
ually it reached such condition
that he had a veritable race track
within twenty-four hours af er a
hard rain. He explained that the
good results were reached because
each repeated dragging added
lay er of water proof material to the
road. This was packed down by
travel and the road became such
hat no water could penetrat It and
:hus well nigh perfect highway
vas secured.

and in it since that time the city
has been repr' sented by other
counsel.
Prior to the appointment of Mr..
Evans the leases of the Hudson Oil
and Gas Go. had been assigned to
Chas Martin and thus the claim of
$4,000 against the city was also In
the hands of FArrelly and Evans.
The Supreme Court decision makes
it desirable fer the firm to bring
suit against the city for the larger
claim of Its client Chas. Martin.
Mr.. Evans intended to except
the Hudson Co claim also when he
assumed the city attorneys duties
but this was not understood by all
members of the council. Even
though he was not now representing
Martin Atty. Evans stated that he
could not properly represent the
city now after having previously
its interests in legal way.
In accepting his lesignation Nation
and Flson, who made the motion
to do so, and other members of the
council stated their regret at losing
The services of Mr.. Evans. They
recognized however that the legal
situation made it practically
necessary that the action be taken.
