HEAVY, SHORT ROAD ROLLER
Useful Improvement May Be Con-
strueted by Using Worn.out Now
ing Machine and Concrete.

Perhaps you have a grader OF some
sort and road drags. but you Iced a
heavy short roller. They cost too
much to buy, so make one this way.
Procure an old worn-out moving ma
chine any make, writes w. A. Dillon
in Farmers Mail and Breeze. Take
off or break off all the parts that stick
out past the wheels. Smooth off a
bit of hard ground; now dig small
sole just large enough for the hub.
Set the machine up on one end, put
a jacket of galvanized sheet iron
around the wheels, secure it at short
intervals with small stove bolts and
make it fit neat and straight. Now
I'LL the jacket with the best fine con
crete. lamp it well and allow it to
stand until the concrete is well set.
Remove the jacket; keep the roller
shaded and spray it for eight or ten
days.
Have the blacksmith put an iron
frame on this roller. Heavy tire iron
will do, using the hubs for spindles.
When a strong tongue is added you
Will have as good roller as anybody;
one that win last a life time and viii
cost but little Save the jacket TO
make more rollers with.
When your road is graded run the
roller down the center. instead OF on
the sides, as nov. Take two disk
harrows the same number OF disks
and if possible the same kind. Turn
the disk on the harroWs so they will
throw the dirt toward each other when
placed side by SIDE Now set them
close together side by side in the mid
die of the road TO be worked. Take
light log chain and fasten the har-
rows together. Put a team on each
harrow and drive down the road to
be worked Turn around; let cut the
chain a couple OF feet; go back. Re
peat the operation a number Of times.
You would be surprised how much
dirt the disk harrow will cut up.
and how much it will move toward

Then roll the center and you will have
good road at small cost.

EVERY FARMER SHOULD HELP

chants Aid in Work.

No man who farms should begrudge
the time he spends in grading, drag

must use them twelve months in the
year. Every days work makes them
a little better if the work is done in
diligently. In many localities the
merchants have aided in the work Of
road betterment, and it seems ridicu-
lous that their efforts should be dis
trusted by the farmers. Good roads
