Road Drag Is Not Costly.

back the other. 1t is mistake to try
to improve too wide strip at one
time. The best work can be done by
the drag when the soil is moist, but
not sticky, SO the earth will move free
~ along the face of the blades. If
the roadway is very badly rutted it
may be well to drag it when the earth
is wet. This is particularly true just
before a spell of cold weather in win
ter when it is possible to have road
way to freeze smooth.
Clay hills after considerable drag
ging frequently become too high in the
center. This can be corrected by drag
ging the earth away from the center
once and toward the center twice. The
road drag is only good in clay or sim
liar soils, as it's effectiveness depends
on the smearing action which it has
and by means of which it can make a
water-tight coat. The sand road will
be injured by browning it toward the
center and dragging because the sand
road needs all the moisture 1t can hold
and a crown will drain this moisture
away.

FREEZES HELPFUL TO SOILS
Aid PuIverize Broken Ground, Cause
Particles - Crumble and VeQe-
table Matter to Break.

There is considerable advantage In
severe freezes during winter. While
cold weather makes expenses some
what heavier unless the farmstead Is
well arranged for comfort, both for
man and animals, the soil is always
benefited by freezes.
Farmers readily recognize that after
hard freezes the soil is in beer con-
dition. Freezes help pulveriZe broken
ground; they cause the particles to
crumble, vegetable matter to disinte-
CRATE and break Down. There is also
considerable check to the increase of
insects. Many insects in the pupa
stage are killed by very cold weather
and this means less increase the fol-
lowing spring and summer. However,
there are some that stand very low
temperatures without injury.
The best way to get the full benefits
of winter SHOWS and winter freezes is
to have the land broken.
