after the sun comes out. The
road is always dragged after a
rain and not when dry. A good,
strong pair of horses with a we'll
built drag can drag 3 or A miles
of road a day, and it is the best
way to maintain good roads. In
every county some farmer along
each 4 miles of road should own
a drag and drag the road when
it rains, and he would always
find the road in good condition
when he goes to market.
Owing to the fact that many
rural schools were closed at the
time when the prize maintain
ance essay was announced by Di-
rector Logan Waller Page Of the
office of public roads, it has been
decided to extend the limit for re-
ceiving the essays to October Is,
1913. In addition to the gold
medal given as first prize, two
silver medals will be given as
second and third prizes. If a
child has submitted one essay
previous to the issue of this no
tice should care to try again, he
is at liberty to do so, but he
must be a pupil of a rural school.

in regard to the subject of the es-
say. The idea is to set the child

Mrs. Lou Ward

The good Lord in His wisdom
called Sister Lou Ward from
earth to Heaven on the morning
of June 20, 1913.
Deceased was the wife Of L.
]. Ward. She had been sick for
seven long weeks. but was not
confined to her bed all of the
time. We regret very much to
give her up, but she had reached
a ripe old age. Mrs. Ward was
born November 10, 1910, and
lived to be 70 years of age, and
if we had had our way, she would
be living yet. but our blessed
Lord needed her and called her
bone.
Sister Ward was a noble
in every respect, and was a..sVd
ed wife. She was married to T.
J. Ward May 6, 1856, and to this
union was born 13 children, all of
whom had gone on before except
one boy and three girls. The
writer knew how devoted she
was to her family. While the
husband is awaiting the finaI
summons, let US pray thathe may
be reconciled to the Lords will,
for | know it will be hard for
him to bear, knowing her devo.
ton to him. He eXerted every
earthly power to keep her for he
said that she was pure gold.
AS a mother she could not be
excelled. She always had her
children at heart. Dear children,
may God bless you all,
She was a good neighbor and
could not do enough for her
neighbors, She will be missed
By everybody.
She was a devoted Christian.
She professed faith in Christ in
1866 and joined the Methodist
church with her husband at Ches-
terville, her membership remain
ing there until her death.

press with word or pen his SYM

The Repair and Maintenance
of Earth Roads

If you look at the ordinary
country road after a shower you
will see small puddles along the
wheel ruts and sometimes larger
pools. This water stays on the
road surface because it cannot
drain away into the side bitches.
If you will look closely you will!
see side bitches which have
grown up with bushes and weeds
in many cases, and which are so
far from the travelled part of the
road that the rain water does not
drain into them. That part of
the roadway where the wagons
travel is called the travelled way.
To prevent water from standing
on the travelled way the road
should be raised in the center and
should slope gently into broad
shallow bitches. 1t is then said
to have a crown. If it is ten feet
from the center of the road to the
side ditch, the surface at the side
ditch should be at least ten inches
lower than it is at the center
where the horses travel. The
road then has a ten inch crown.
The rain that falls on a road prop
erly crowned will run quickly to
the side and not soak into the
surface or form pools. The side
bitches for surface water should
run parallel to the right of way,
and should be open at every low
point so that the water can run
out of them into neighboring
brooks or streams. If the bitches
collect the water from the road
surface and it cannot run away,
large pools will be formed along
the road side, which will gradu-
ally soak into the soil beneath the
road and make it so soft that the
wheels of w wagons will cut
through the road surface and soon
destroy it.
Sometimes water runs from
land along the road into the road
and forms a little stream down
the wheel tracks or in the middle
where the horses travel. When
driveways into farmyards are
built across the side bitches they
frequently form channels for
water from the farmyard to run
into the road. The pipes under
driveways become filled with
leaves or rubbish and the water
can no longer run away. If the
driveways that stop the ditch
water were rebuilt so that no
pipes were necessary and the
ditch could be left open, much
trouble from surface water would
be stopped.
Sometimes a road runs across

low ground or through a swamp
where the road cannot be drained
by side bitches alone. If the road
was built higher like a railroad
embankment across low land and
made with a crown it would be
dry and hard. Sometimes road
passes through what is called a
cut. This is a place where earth
has been dug out so that the road
can go over a hill without being
too steep. The water which al
ways flows quietly under the
ground on hill sides is known as
ground water. In road cuts such
water sometimes makes the road
very muddy, and the road then
needs what road builders call
underdrainage. A good kind of
underdrainage is a trench to go
along under the side drain and
about three feet deep and a foot
and a half wide. In this trench
a pipe is laid near the bottom a
covered with loose stones no big
ger than an egg. When the
trench is completely filled with
loose stones the ground water,
instead of soaking into the road
way, will stop among the stones
and flow down the hill through
the pipe.
To keep a road smooth and
crowned the best method is to
drag it with a road drag. A road
drag is made easily with two
halves of a log which has been
split. The two halves of the log
are set three feet apart with the
smooth faces toward the upright.
They are then fastened together
with braces set in holes bored
through the log. A pair of
horses may be used to drag the
road and are hitched to a chain
fastened to the front half of the
log. The road drag should move
forward so that it slants across
the road in such a way that a
small amount of earth will slide
past the smooth face of the log
toward the center of the road,
thus forming the crown. The
edges of the log will smooth out
the ruts. The best way to drag
begin att the side ditch and
