Mrs. Guevin's death occurred few
minutes before midnight Friday at her
home. 10 Fuller street, Montpelier. Last
March she underwent an operation in the
local hospital and for a time her con-
diton seemed to improve. l.atterly,
however. she had gradually failed. She
was 80 vc>rs old and was born in Fays'
ton. She had lived in Barre around nine
wears. She leaves her husband and a
daughter by a former marriage, Mrs,

terial which they serape. The amount
of this angle or skew depends, OF course,
upon the condition of the road. by
| offsetting the runners, it is possible to
make their ends follow approximately
| the same line on the road which they
would not do if they We're set direct
! Nv behind each other and the drag drawn
at an angle with the road
In order TO provide standing room for
the man, it is usual to nail two boards
down the rungs parallel to the runners.
Standing upon these, skilltul driver
win bear his weight in such way as
to aid materially in the successful oper-
alton of the drag.
The drag is drawn by chain which
should be about s feet long. This can
be fastened by eye bolts to each end OF
the front runner, or one end OF the chain
can pass through a hole at the discharge
end of the front runner, and the other
end be looped over the rung at the cut
ting end of the runner. 1t is impor-
tant that the hitching link should be
so designed that its position can be
changed readily. 1t is also desirable to
provide metal cutting edge for the
front runner. This can be made from
strip of iron or steel, and old wagon
tires have frequently proved satisfac-
tory
The cost of such drag varies from
80 90 to perhaps $1,000 or $500. This
practically insignificant outlay will Sc
cure an implement that will be OF great
service to the community for at least
three or four years. The fact cannot
be overlooked, however, that skill in the
use of the drag is Indispensable.
The angle that the runners make with
the center line of the road, the skew
angle as it might be called, is an i'm
portant factor. For example. if the
dragging is done to increase the crown
of the road the drag should be suffi-
GENTLY skewed to dischage all material
as rapidly as it is collected on the run
ners. On the other hand. the conditions
NAV be such that IL is desirable to carry
along this material in order to deposit
it where there are depressions in the
road surface An intelligent operator
will soon learn many ways of controlling
the action of the drag. The length Of
the hitching chain, the disposition OF the
operators weight, the time when the
dragging is done, all these exert
marked influence upon the results.
As to the time for dragging, safe
rule to follow is to drag the road when
the material composing the surface con-
tains sufficient moisture to compact
readily. but is not sufficiently wet for
traffic to produce mud
Since the weather plays so important
part in the matter, il is not usually
possible to arrange continuous employ
ment for teams on the road. 1t is there
fore desirable, whenever possible to have
the dragging done by persons interest
ed in the road. who viii do it in the in
tervals of other occupations.

DRAGGING EARTH ROADS.
Simplest and Cheapest Way to Maintain
Certain Highroads in Good Condition.

The road drag is the simplest and
least expensive contriyance yet devised
for maintaining earth roads, according
to the experts in the United States de
partment of agriculture, who are cooper
ating with state and county authorities
in work for better roads.
Properly used, the drag gives the need
ed crown to the road, smooths out ruts
and other irregularities, spreads out
puddles Of water, thereby acceleratlng
the drying of the road, and makes the
surface more or less imperyious to water
by smearing over the so-called pores in
the earthly material The cost OF opera
ton depends, of course, upon local con-
dition and the thoroughness with
which the work is done. 1t is safe TO
saw. however, that il is less expensive
than any other efficient system OF up
keep
Farmers bulletin No. 5o7, OF the de-
partment of agriculture, discusses under
the title of "1he Road Drag and How
1t is Used" the best methods OF main
tanning earth roads in good condition by
this simple device. In this bulletoin,
which has Just been published, the de-
partment points out that of more than
100000 miles OF public roads in the
United States. only about 100000 miles
have been given a hard surface. II is
true, of course, that large part OF
the remaining mileage consists OF roads
that are entirely unimproved, and that
on roads OF this class the drag is prac-
ticallv useless There is a much larger
mileage. however that has been partial
ly improved, and it is on roads of this
that have been crowned
or drained, but have not a hard sur
face-that the use Of the drag is adyo-
Gated.
In its simplest form. the road drag
consists of an ordinary log split in half
and the two halves connected like the
lprights of ladder by means of cross
sticks or rungs set in. The log should
be about or inches in diameter, and
from 9 to S feet in length. 1t is better
to have 1t OF well-seasoned, hard, tough
wood. The two cylindrical halves
of the log form the runners OF the drag,
and are usually from 30 to 3B inches
apart. The front runner is always placed
with the split surface OF the wood fac
ing forward. but the rear runner some
times has its rounded face in front. This
is done in order to increase the smear
ing action of the drag as it passes over
the surface of the road.
The two runners are not placed direct
" behind each other, but are offset"
as il is called, from II 10 Is inches. This
is done because the drag is drawn over
the road at an angle sufficient to make
the runners free themselves of the ma
