Chapman) The road drag has proved a success everywhere when used after rains to and crown round the up fill the ruts This does not mean that the crown should be so sharp as to slant the wagon unduly for as the road is not to be neglected but cheaply worked as needed there is no need for too sharp an elevation We shall soon be hauling an Immense tonnage to market and I believe the drag should be used whether it rains or not to keep the roads in shape or we shall again unless there are frequent rains which seldom occurs In the fall have deep cuts all across the traveled surface which are bo close they cannot be avoided Bays a writer In the Denver Weekly Post When we start hauling we follow the besoon eenter of the road which comes deeply rutted and then we whilst straddle those ruts continuing Is Is at all left which uny surface solid The great loads cut deeper and deeper forcing the dirt higher and higher at the side of the rut where it dries out becoming pliable and loose In' fact the road begins to present the field of a badly pearance plowed which has not known the harrow The escape of moisture leaves the soil particles without a film of water around them to bind them together and there Is a more of less complete break up of the road surface It Is not so much the use of the drag as a rut filler which is obvious to which I wish to draw attention as to Its use as an which agent to retain some moisture will bind the road and give It resistance to the wheels just as harrowing a field or race track works for In either case It Is the dust mulch on top that preserves the lower levels from air spaces and breaks up Teams and teamsters will follow the lines of least resistance and how often the road was wet once runs round where spot on a sharp curve for months bemud
