Serviceable Road Drag.

of the hitch may be regulated by
lengthening and shortening the chain
at the end which runs through the
hole in the blade end Of the drag. Usu-
ally two horses are enough to pull q
drag over an ordinary earth road.
The object Of the drag Is to move
earth toward the center of the road
the surrounding level. While this is
being accomplished, all mudholes and
ruts will be filed, into which traffic
will press the fresh earth. The drag
doea the best work when the soil is
moist, but not sticky.
In soils full Of loose stones or even
small powders the drag does good
service. The loose stones are drawn
into a windrow down the center OF
the road, while the earth is deposited
around the powders in such a way
that the surface is leveled.
The approximate cost Of splitIog
drag, labor and material is about three
dollars; the cost for dragging one
mile, going over several times, team
and driver, is just what you will make
1t from one dollar up, depending on
the number of times required to &C
over the rough road.
The advantages to be gained from
the persistent use Of road drag may
be summarized as follows:
The maintenance Of a smooth, serv
iceable emth road free from ruts ant
mudholes. The obtaining OF such 6
road surface with the expenditure o.
little money and labor in comparison
with the money and labor required fol
other methods. The reduction of mut
