MUCH IMPROVED DIRT ROADS
Intelligent Use of Drag Will Benefit
Roadway, No Matter What the
Nature of the Soil is.

The dirt road can be very much i'm
proved by the intelligent use of the
road drag. This has been proved be-
yond a doubt in the states that have
legislated in favor of road dragging
No matter what the soil, the intelli-
gent use of the drag will improve the
roadway. Mind you, used the word
intelligent, says a writer in Success
full Farming.
A sandy soil is hard to handle.
Where gravel is available gravel
containing considerable clay-a sur
facing of six or eight inches with this
material will greatly benefit a sandy
road.
The first thing essential in road i'm
provement Is good drainage. You
first get the water away from the sides
of the road so the deep-seated road
bed can dry out and harden. When
the side drainage is perfect, then the
next essential is to crown the road
so that surface drainage off the road
is perfect. Even a dirt road cannot
get very muddy If the water has no
chance to stand in the wheel tracks.
With surface water eliminated, and
ditch water taken care Of, the roadbed
cannot soften very much.
Every highway, whatever its con
struction, should be patrolled by a
man who is on the lookout for clogged
bitches and the breaking of the road
surface. A shovel in the hands OF
a road walker will do more to make
good roads than the most elaborate
outfit used only when roads become
impossible.

GROWING FRUIT ON DRY LAND
Important Point to Remember Is to
Plant All Trees and Small Plants
Farther Apart Than Custom.

(By JOHN ROBERTSON, Hot Springs.
s.. d.
In growing fruit without irrigation,
all trees and small fruit plants must
be planted farther apart than is the
custom. This is a very important
point to remember. Where there is
little rainfall and dry subsoil, each
tree or plant must have enough indi-
vidual surface surrounding 1t to draw
moisture from, according to its size
and nature of growth. We cannot get
something for nothing, nor can we
grow plants without moisture; and
they must have enough to do their
best.
Those who are planting apple trees
16 feet apart each way on dry subsoil
land cannot succeed. This is just as
certain as that two given numbers
make certain sum in a mathematical
problem. Apple trees should not be
planted closer than 30 feet apart each
way. They will not need all the
moisture between them at this dis
lance apart until ten or twelve years
old, and small fruits or other crops
may be grown between them till about
this age, but one must use care and
judgment as to how much or how long
to crop between the trees. 1t is bet
ter to make the mistake of cropping
too little than too much. Trees plant
ed 16 feet apart will grow as well as
those 80 feet apart for the first ten
years, if there is nothing planted be-
tween them, but after, about that time
there will not be moisture enough to
supply the increasing drain made as
they grow larger Even If three
fourths of the trees were dug out, moth
ing would have been gained. for the
orchard would only be starting to bear
paying crops of fruit; while If the
rows are 80 feet apart, and one row OF
small fruit plants are set between
each two rows of trees, by the time
the trees need all the moisture, the
small fruits will have done their best,
and one can dig them up, feeling he
has been well repaid. 1t is important,
too, that the outside row of any kind
of trees or plants be planted not closer
than 10 feet from prairie grass
growing border. There is little mois'
ture under prairie sod after long
dry spell.
The land should be in thorough cul'
tivation before trees are planted, and
the last blowing should be extra deep
because 1t is not going to be plowed
again and should be in condition to
take in a heavy rainfall. No expensive
tools are required; simply a strong
Pinch pillow set to run deep and q
good team to pull it.
