outside stake. Find the center of the
middle hole as before. When these
holes are brought opposite each other,
one end of the back slab will lie 16
inches nearer the center of the road
way than the front one. The holes
should be two inches in diameter. Care
must be taken to hold the auger plumb
in boring these holes in order that
the stakes shall fit properly.
The two slabs should be held 30
inches apart by the stakes. The
stakes should taper gradually toward
the ends. There should be no shoul-
der at the point where the stakes en-
ter the slab. The stakes should be
fastened in place by wedges only.
When the stakes have been placed in
position and tightly wedged a brace
two inches thick and four inches wide
should be placed diagonally to them
at the ditch end. The brace should be
dropped on the front slab, so that its
lower edge shall lie within an inch of
the ground, while the other end
should rest in the angle, between the
slab and the end stake. A strip of
iron about three and one-half feet long,
three or four inches wide, and one-half
of an inch thick may be used for the
blade.
An ordinary trace chain is strong
enough to draw the implement, pro-
vided the clevis is not fastened
through a link. The chain should be
wrapped around the rear stake, then
passed over the front slab. Raising the
chain at this end of the slab allows
the earth to drift past the face of the
drag. The other end of the chain
should be passed through the hole in
the end of the slab

ROADS IN BETTER CONDITION
spllt-Log Drag Of Great Service in
Keeping Thorouahfares In Shape
How Il Is Built

The use of the split-log drag is i'm
portant in putting the roads in shape.
There are over 1000, 900 miles Of earth
roads In the country, and the split-log
drag is of great service in keeping
them in economical repair The drag
is used in many states and in foreign
countries It is used with two, three,
or four horses, and is easily con-
structed
1t is a mistake to construct a heavy
drag. A dry red cedar log is the best
material for drag. Red elm and wal
nut when thoroughly dried are excel
lent, and box elder, soft maple, or even
willow are preferable to oak, hickory
or ash.
The log should be seven or eight
feet long, and from ten to twelve
inches in diameter, and carefully split
down the middle. The heaviest and
best slabs should be selected for the
front. At a point on the front slab
four inches from the end that is to be
at the middle of the road locate the
center of the hole to receive a Cross
stake, and 20 inches from the other
end Of the front slab locate the center
for another Cross stake. The hole
for the middle stake will lie on a line
connecting and halfway between the
other two.
The back slab should then be placed
in a position behind the other. From
the end at the middle Of the road
measure 20 inches for the center of
the Cross stake, and six inches from
the other end locate the center Of the

WILL FIGHT PENSION
 LAW FOR MOTHERS

DOUGLAS, Jan. 5.-J. F. Ross, county attorney elect, is all primed for ighting the mothers pension law.
 He has announced that he expects the county supervisors at their first session to vote to abolish the county poor farm. They will probably decide that under the new law that is the only course open to them.
 It will then be up to Ross to act, proceedings in friendly suit to com pei the county board to maintain the institution. There are several grounds on which he may attack the new law on legal grounds, one being that the title of the measure is ambiguous, and the other that the law does not pro- vide who shall sell the county property.
 Whether he will have to go to court to fight the state in the matter, remains to be seen. It depends upon what steps the state may take to sell the property. In the meantime the poor farm will continue.

WORLDS FAIRS ARE
 GREATEST EDUCATORS

As a means of education, the ex hibits in science, art, history and ed ucation in the Panama-California ex- position are superior to the teachers institutes and summer, schools which are to be- held the coming year, over the country.
 This, is effect, is the opinion of Dr. A. E. Winship, editor of the Ma tional Journal of Eucdation, who re- gently visited Yuma
 The doctors views were expressed to the Examiner and were further em- phasized by the promise that, the edl- tor of the National Journal of Educa- tion, through the columns of that pub ication, and from the lecture platform would urge the teachers from all over the United States go to San Di- ego in 1915, instead of attending the usual summer schools and institutes and that they be given the credit therefor they receive for attendance from the respective boards of tduca- ion in their home cities and counties.
 No higher and more effective in lorsement and commendation of the great exposition could be given.
 First, for the reason that no per son stands higher in the educational world in this country than Dr. A. E. Winship.
 Second because the National Jour nal of Education is the most influen- tial publication of it's class in the United States.
 Third, because it is read by prac tically every teacher of the country who is devoted to and progressive Tn his or her profession.
 Finally, teachers, among those who conduct tourist agencies, are known IS the greatest travellers in the cCun cry and the best advertising means when they find something hey appreciate away from home, for he reason they never fail to inform heir friends of the fact and impel them to come and see it, too.

 FINEST IN THE WORLD

American men are the finest in the world because
 They are the most considerate;
 "They treat their wives the best;
 "Thcy are the most friendly;
 They are the most adaptable;
 And they eliminate useless form in dress
 The foregoing five reasons why American men are the best in the world were given by Lady Auckland, of London, member of the nobility, who, with her son, the Hon. F. G. c. Eden, is a guest at a Los Angeles hotel.
 Lady Auckland's opinion were form ed after she had visited practically every country in the world, and she considers them expert.

BITS OF PHILOSOPHY FROM 4 CONTfMP0RA

It is often difficult for the fellows who have been born great to keep up the expansion.
 When a fellow attempts to mix business and pleasure he always gets an overdose of pleasure in the mix ture.
 The school of experience is not a "pay-as-you-enter" institution, but col lections are always made somewhere along the line.
 When all others fail, booze can al ways give the pugilist the knockout blow.
 People who fight for a principle sometimes display poor judgment in selecting the principle.
 The devils bargain counter often shows that some supposedly good men have been sold for song.

HOW 10 LIVE
 ONE HUNDRED YEARS"
THIS IS THE NAME OF A NEW BOOK BY EUGENE CHRIS
 THAN, F. S. D.

Eugene Christian. F. s. D., the worlds greatest Food Scientist, has
 just published a new book called How to Live 100 Years"
 This book tells you what to eat according to your age, your work and the time of the year. It teaches you now to select, how to combine and so as to establish perfect digestion and assimilation of food and perfect elimination of waste In other words, t teaches you how to cure all stomach and intestinal disorders by removing their causes, which is wrong eating.
 If you have indigestion, gas, fermen- tation, sour stomach or any such dis orders after meal, this book tells you how to put the remedy on your table at the next meal.
 Dr. Christian shows that all anim als how to proportion your food at meals except man live about eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth. If man should do this he would live nearly 200 years; but civi- lized man dies at the average age or 39. He begins to lose his teeth, his eyes and his hair, and drops into his grave only a few years after he is grown.
 Dr. Christian shows that P per cent of all the human beings born ints the world die before they are one year old. Twenty-Five per cent more die before their fifth birthday, anu more than half of the human race die before they are twenty-five.
 All other animals on the globe live eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth. Man breathes the same air, drinks the same water, lives under the same sunshine, but differs from his brother animals only n his eating, therefore pr. Christian shows conclusively that this appalling must be on account o his eating habits and he has proved that his theory is true by curing over 29,000 people within the past ten years by teaching them what to eat and how to eat How to Live 100 Years, gives the secret of his methods.
 This book does not disarrange oi upset the family table. It teaches the what foods the meal should be composed of, so as to make them harmonious and perfectly 1lgestible and healthy.
 This book is beautifully bound in velum, and gold lettered. Send one 1ollar to Dr. Eugene Christian, 213 West 79th Street, New York City, and you will receive this life-saving book by return mall, and if it is not worth ts weight in gold your money will be promptly refunded to you.

operation would be entreme ly inexpensive. Blaisdell saic
 that the price will be an.
 nounced when an official of
 fer is made to the city in the
 near future.
 As proof of the success oi his filter, Blaisdell furnished the city officials with statis- tics and facts concerning all those in operation in other cities. The filters that he has installed are as follows Yuma, Arizona, daily capaci- ty 75O,000 gallons, in use for eight years; Philadelphia, Pa, two pre-filters, daily ca pacity 5O,OOO,OOO, in use for six years; Wilmington, Dela., daily capacity l5,OOO,OOO, ln use for five years. He alsc has a filter in the process or installation at Montreal, Can This consists of two wash erS," with a daily capacity of 5O,OO0,OOO. Another is being installed at Calexico, Cal.
 BlaiSdell told the commits sioners that the process sure remove 90 per cent of the bacteria. No chemicals are used. He pointed out that the success of the filtera- tion plant at Yuma, where the dirty water of the Colorado river is taken for use, proves that the system will be ar economical success here.
 He stated that the Mont real officials had chosen the Alteration plant more to elim- mate the disease germs from the water than to cleanse it 0f sediment.
 BlaiSdell will probably con- fer with the city commission erS before leaving the city to- day. His offer will probabl oe made in the near future His proposition will include an offer to install a small fiji -eration plant without cost to -he city to prove his state nent.
