Drag fseR BE uss1.

1t can be truthfuIky said that drain
age is the child ESSENTIAL in putting
earth roads intf proper condition. An
old ScOtchman, an expert road bulldef,
aptly said that the three requirements
of good earth roads are, drainage. more
drainage, and still H1ore drainage. Il.
w. Lehman Of the university OF MIS-
souri, college of agriculture lndorsea
this sentiment and Odds: Roads must
not only have good surface dralnag'
but must also havd good underdrdih-
aye Surface drainage is secured by
proper grading, adequate side dltcheS,
and by keeping the crown OF the roa"
properly dragged. Stretches OF roat
that do not dry out quickly must ne
underdrained by tile.
The drag must be used after each
rain. if the best results are to be Sc
cured. Don't go on the road while too
muddy, let it dry out slightly; it should
be wet enough, however. so it will not
crumble, but smear. When properly
used. the drag brings a thin layer OF
earth toward the center of the road
which is rolled and packed between
wet periods. If too much crown is Sc
cured by dragging, the angle of the
drag should be reversed.
Getting the earth roads graded
bitches open, well drained, and prop
erly crowned by dragging is about al
that can be done until the people arr
