The earth road will doubtless be

solved very largely b. the use of the

Anyone WHO can use tools reason

at a cost OF four TO five dollars for lc-
bor and ma erial. Very few tools are
required in making the drag. and its
use is as simple aad cheap as its con.
struotion. II desired. metal drags can
