Benefits Of Road Dragging

Dragging the snow off the roads
as soon as it quit falling as was
done a few weeks ago proved to be
the most valuable work done on
the streets and roads in and about
Laclede during the past year.
While there was yet big piles of
snow in the bitches the road bed
was dry and hard and continued
that way during the thawing of the
snow in the bitches. Never have
the roads been so universally good
in this locality during all seasons
as they have been the past year
and it is all due to the intelligent
and practical work that has been
done. 1t seems as if the question
of keeping up a dirt road is about
to be solved.
