It should be observed In this connection thut a large purt of our total mileage of public ronds Is entirely unimproved and that the roud drag Is of little use la Improving suad or clay rouds which have never been crowned or drained. A much largir part, however, has been sufficiently Improved to make the work of the drag effective, and It Is unquestionably true thut the magnitude of tills part Is steadily Increasing. Notwithstanding the fact thnt road drags, made of wood or a combination of wood and metal, have been In use for at least two generations and were described In a text book published as early as 1851, the benefits to be derived from using them are, even now, far from belug generally understood. Tills ldct Is thoroughly evidenced by the prevalence of very unsatisfactory roads upon which considerably more money is annually expended In hauling materials to fill boles and ruts than would be required to maintain the roads In good condition by the Intelligent use of a road drag. PROTECT ROADS IN WINTER Water and Not Cold Is Cause of Injury to Highways, Even Those of Beet Construction. The department of agriculture calls attention to the fact that water and not cold Is the cause of Injury to roads In winter, even those of the best construction. It Is obvious, therefore, that It Is a matter of economy, from every point of view, that roads should be as dry as possible when winter comes on. During the fall the road should be carefully gone over and all ruts and hollows that can hold water solidly filled In to make the camber of the road surface such that It will drain quickly and thoroughly. Standing pools at the side of the road should also be drained, as they tend to soak and soften the foundations of the road, which may result In b'ud heaving" when n freeze comes. , HIGHWAY MODEL IS UNIQUE n , , slxty-tw- o two-hou- Made to Show Just How Relocation of Roada Betters Conditions (n Traveling. The relocation of old roads seems to be something mysterious or uncatny to so many taxpayers that the Pennsylvania highway department has had an unusual model made to show conditions. This model measures six by five feet and was made by a specialist In such work at Washington. It Is In relief, with roads, fields, houses," trees and other features of the landscape reproduced to a correct scale. On It are shown three types of poorly located roads frequently found and the proper method of relocating ench so as to provide satisfactory grades and connect the termlnul points in the most direct manner. The model also shows three types of road construction. RESTORATION OF OLD PHRASE Tailored Suit , America believes In the reinstating of the coat and skirt for every day to be envied.
