One of the latent publications issued
by the Office of Public Roods of the
I nited State# Department of Agricul-
ture, treats of the split-log drag as
implement which numerous experi-
ments have conclusively shown to be
the greatest possible boon to keep
earth roads smooth and passable. Be-
cause of Its simplicity, Its efficiency
and it* cheapness, both in caastmc-
tlon and operation, it Is destined to
come more and more Into genoml use.
With the drag properly built mid Its
use well understood, the maintenance
of earth road# become# a simple tad
inexpensive matter
At the present time there are Ap-
proximately I.OOO.iWO miles of earth
roads in the United States. Some of
the most important cf these roads will
eventually be improved with atone,
gravel, and other materials. Many
others which are equally Important
cannot be so improved on account of
lack of funds or suitable materials.1 township In Iowa had been making an

quite Impossible to lay down spedHc
era, because of steep grades, wet
weather springs, soil conditions, ex-
posure to sun and wind, washes, etc.
There is one condition, however. In
which special attention should bo giv-
en. Clay roads under persistent drag-
frequently become too high in
the center. This may be corrected
by dragging the earth towards the cen-
ter of the road twice, and away from It
There Is no question as to the econ-

figures were furnished by Professor
W. C. Hoad, of the University of Kan-

records of the counties.
Seme figures furnshed by F. P.
Sanborn and R. H. Atobton, General
Manager of the Chicago and North-
weatern Railroad, have revealed the
Wonders of this simple device, j Mr.
Sanborn said “the least expense per
mite per annum for split-log dragging
was $1.50. the greatest a little over
$6.00. and the average expense per
mile for 514 miles a little over *1. I
have lived along this road all my life

fact that during the season we have

while *,till others will not require such
' treatment because of the light traffic
! to which they are subjected. For
these reasons the majority of our
roads must bo maintained aa earth
roads for many years to come. This,
must be done by inexpensive methods
and the split-log drag will be a power
fu! aid If economy Is the criterion
demanded.
In the construction of this imple-
ment, care should be taken to make it
so light that one mao can lift tt with
ease, a light drag responding more
readily to various methods of hitching
than * heavy ode. as well as to the
shifting the position of the operator.
The best material for a split-log drag
is a dry red cedar log, though red elm
and walnut are excellent. And box el-
der, soft maple, or even willow are su-
perior to oak, hickory, or ash. The
log Bhonld be between 7 and 10 feet
long and from 10 to 11 Inches In diam-
eter at the tatt end. It shdpid be
split carefoly aa near the center aa
possible, and the heaviest and best
slab chosen for. the front In the
front slab 4 Inches from dm end
which Is to drag in the middle of the
road bore n 2-inch hole which is to
receive a cross stake- At « dlstaace
of 22 inches from the other end of
the front slab, locate the center for
another cross stake. The hole for
the middle stake will be oa n line con-
tacting and halfway between U$e two.
Then place the back slab In position
and from the end which to to drag in
the middle of the road measure 20
Inches for the center of one
stake aad 6 Inches from the other end
locate the center of the
stake. The hole for the center stake
should be locate! halfway between
the two. All theae boles aboeld be
carefully bored
right angles to
log I
If these directions are followed It
win be found that when the boles of
the front and back slabs are brought
opposite each other, ode end of the
back slab will be IS Inches nearer the
center of the roadway than the front
one. That gives what la known as
“set back. - The stakes, which are 20
inches long, win hold the alpha this
distance apart. When the si
have been firmly wedged tat® i
sockets, a brace shout 2 inches thick
and 4 inches wide may be placed diag-
onally to them at the ditch end of the
