ROADS
DRAG PREPARES GOOD ROADS
Length and Position OF Hitch, and Pc
sition of Driver Are Of Much
Importance.
(By H. L. THOMPSON. Oklahoma Elk

(By H L. THOMPSON, Oklahoma EX-
pertinent Station, Stillwater.)
The successful handling of the drag
on the road depends on two principles.
These are the length and position of
the hitch, and the position Of the driv.
er on the drag.
For ordinary work the clevis should
be fastened far enough on the chain
toward the ditch end of the blade to
force the unloaded drag to follow the
team at about an angle of As degrees
This will cause the earth to move
smoothly along the face of the drag
and will make the draft light on the
team, provided the driver rides in the
line of draft. If small weeds are to
be cut or if the furrow of earth in the
ditch is to be moved, the hitch should
be attached rather close on the chain
TO the ditch end of the drag. This will
cause the drag to move nearly ditch
end foremost. The driver should put
his weight on the extreme forward end
of the front blade, which will make the
drag swing back to the proper angle
and make the blade pillow.
For such work the team should be
driven slowly and carefully to keep the
drag from dipping forward. If wet
spot is met, the driver should shift his
weight backward so as not to dig too
I deeply. If the blade becomes clogged
with straw or weeds it can be made to
clean itself usually if the driver shifts
his weight as far as possible from the
ditch end of the blade. If there is a
low place or mudhole to be filled the
drag can be made to drop its load of
earth if the driver shifts his weight
quickly from the ditch end.
The distance from the drag at which
the team is hitched affects the depth
of cutting. A long hitch causes the
blade to cut deeper and is used Otter
when a rough road is to be smoothet
up Shortening the chain seems to lift
the furrow blade from the ground ant
makes lighter cutting when doing ligh
smoothing work.
, For a new road with bumps ant
holes the three-blade steel drag is ex
cellent, as it carries considerable cart
and will not drop into the ruts or hole
as badly as two-blade drag. How
ever, it usually requires four horses
The team should ride the whole dis
! lance, going up one wheel track an

SOLDIERS ROBBED BY
MERCHANTS IN SOUTH
Man in Uniform is Victim of Price
Hiuhbinders-FIotel Prices Enorm-
Gus,

Lieut.. Jack Townley writes to his
father, John L. Townley of Fergus
Falls, that army officers at San
Antonio, Texas, are being overcharg-
ed for everything they buy. When
officers of the quaTtermasters' de-
partment Communicated uniforms
and overcoats from the merchants
they found that overcoats invoiced
at 81 to $40 were sold for from $40
to $50.
"The man in uniform is a marked
man." writes Lieutenant Townley,
he is overcharged for everything he
needs. The papers run advertise
ments of merchants announcing large
discount sales, but all military sup
plies are excepted. The hotels are
overcharging also. Rooms that they
formerly gave out at $3.50 per person
are now from 81 to so a day. Even
where they put six and seven men
in rooms on cots they charge them
$3.50 per man. I noticed an instance
at Deming. One of the drug stores
there sold matted milk at 10 cents
piece when we got there; two weeks
later they were 20 cents. If the
dealers in towns where soldiers are
stationed do not become milhonaireg
with the prices they are charging
they are poor business men. The SOL
diers are helpless-they have to have
certain things and must pay the
price"

Red Cross Yarn
Must Not Lie Idle

Mrs. Alex Stern, head of the knit
ing committee of the Fargo branch
Of the Red Cross, announces today
that there is much yarn out and that
1t is imperative that 1t be gotten
in again quickly.
Those who have yarn which they ar
not knitting at present into Red
Cross articles and which they cannot
transform quickly into the various
garments needed, are requested to
return the same to headquarters, so
that other knitters may work on it,.
, Not only is all of the yarn needed,
but it is very difficult to keep the
headquarters reports Of expenditures
straight when yarn is held for weeks
at a time in the various homes of
the volunteer workers. There is at
present over 1000 worth Of yarn
out among FargO's knitters.
The need of these warm knitted
articles is emphasized in a long let
ter received Monday by Mrs. J. D.
Farrand from her son Jack, who Is
somewhere in France" This SOL
der, well known to Fargo friends,
says: I'VE have plenty to eat but
no fuel and nothing to keep US
warm but the good warm blood in
our veins, and the warm clothing
being provided us. We live day and
night in our heavy clothing, and areI
housed in unheated barracks" Mr..
Farrand also writes that 1t is uuiteI
cold in France.
For the next two months an es-
pecially strenuous effort should be
expended on knitting, as the de-
mand for warm clothing is most i'm
peFative, and garments continually
need replacing as they become worn.
