The Road Drag In Winter

At this season of the year the road drag
should not be neglected It's use will be
followed by results such as do not attend
its operation at any other time of the
year. If the roads are to be kept in
fit condition to be travelled during the
winter and spring, a time of the year
when the earth roads are at their worst,
they should receive a careful dragging
now and at every opportunity during the
winter when there is a sufficient thaw to
work the road
1t is the water on the road that makes
the mud through which travel passes
with difficulty cutting the deep ruts and
mud holes that make many roads almost
impossible in winter and spring. The
use of the drag will keep the crown of
the road rounded and smooth so that the
rain and melted SHOWS will not be left
standing in the tracks to soak in and
make a mud road. Dragging the road
puts on Just enough soil to fill all holes,
cuts or hollow places, pressing the water
out of them into side bitches and by
smoothing effect leaving the surface in
condition to shed additional rain. Il
keeps the crown built up and smooth,
we'll compacted earth surface to with
stand the penetrating effect of rain and
frost. If the roadway is very badly
rutted and full of holes the use of the
drag when the ground is slushy will give
good results This treatment is parti-
cularly applicable before a cold spell
when it is possible to have a roadway
free smooth.

the Splitlog Drag On Earth Roads" may
