ton contained in little pamph-
let "The Highway proposes a
method which is deserving Of re-
produqtNn. 1t says Cone man
can keep up two or three miles
of macadam road where he would
unuucstionabIy be unable to keep
in good condition like amount
of unsurfaced road With the
Of n nd IL n a.
he would be able to keep IN good
condition, twenty miles of ordI-
nary graded earth road. Some
very Jealous advocates of the
drag clam everything for it,
from the removal of stumps and
rocks to the ditching Of the roads.
! am a great believer IN the drag,
but from experience, ] know that
must be removed
and proper drainage provided be-
fore it is effective It has been
with the road men OF the
South to convince County author
tiles that this little machine is OF
value. The writer when in
charge of road work in q Ten
nessee County inagurated sys-
tenn of dragging which proved
very successful. Ten roads were
graded distance Of three miles
each. The dragging was complot'
ed in November. With surface Of
these roads fresh and loose, il
was a foregone conclusion that
the winter rains would soften
them to the extent that they
would become impossible under
heavy traffic. Contracts were
made with a farmer on each Of
these roads to keep them dragged
during the months of December.
January, February and March
and the price paid was thirty
cents an hour for man and team.
The County furnished the drags
AS an inducement to the men to
10 good work, the County offered
prizes of $25. 90, $500 and 5000
for the best kept roads. Speci-
ications for dre gging and rules
governing the contest were fur
lished each contestant. One
rule was that that the
,rizes would be awarded to the
men who kept the roads in best
at the least cost. In
rider that the engineer might |
Keep in torch with the work, post
il cards were furnished each man
md they were required to fill
hem out every Monday showing |
he distance dragged, hours con
umed and cost for the previous
week and mail them to the Office
f the engineer. In this way il
vas practically impossible for a
dishonest man to render an ac.
count for more time than he real
y consumed without being de
ected or if he worked more than
vas necessary, the reports of the
'ther contestants with his dis !
'losed it. On the other hand if
lie should be neglecting his work
~ not dragging sufficiently it
vas likewise detected. This thir-
v miles of road was kept in
plendid condition despite the fact
hat two heavy SHOWS fell during
he four months. The most in.
eresting fact connected with the
ontest was the road that was
Iwarded first prize, cost the Coun-
y only $500 or $500 per mile"
These suggestions | now sub

mongst them as appear satisfac-
DRY to you and that you substi-
ute the others with measures

'arish of iberia.
In conclusion, permit me to
hank each of you gentlemen for
our valuable aid and assistance
