And it has now become this remark- ably good road simply through the constant and intelligent use of the ‘spizt 10g drag. DirectiOns for buildâ€" ing and using the King Drag can be imncured by asking the office of Pub- lic Roads, Washington, D. C., for the {King Drag Bulletin. Suffice it to say 1 that the two sections of aisplit log gare fastened together about thirty #inche-s apart and with an edge of leach against the ground. The appar- ‘ atus is dragged behind a team at an angle of about forty-rive degrees. It is dragged in such a way that the accumulated=~surplus earth is plough- . ed toward the centre of the road. Every third trip the order is revers- ed so that the surplus is thrown to _ _ the outside of the roadway, thus ”a?” mplfmgslgerictlfr 8:: keeping the crown of the roadway yon a sum m . t high face.

I! this is done the ditches will ‘ take care of themselves, and are 31-] most unnecessary, for who cares. where the water goes once it is shed ‘ by the roadbéd. Mr. King told 01 a number of cases where a puddle or sink hole had extended from fence to fence and after a. King Drag had been put through it a number of times, thus heaping the mud in the centre of the road and leaving the water all at the edges, the sun bak- ed the mud heap and after a. few more treatments with the drag the hole disappeared altogether as far as the road was concerned; Today there was as good, hard, dry road there as any Place else, and the water at the sides did not aflect the drainage or hardness of: the road in any way. To illustrate how it was possible to have good dry road with ditches full of water or bogs on each side, Mr. King pointed to the case pen. Many farmers had noticed how at Rules of the Road of the 110% It was the same way on the roads.

The sun following bakes the clay hard and able to withstand a large amount of traffic. If the dragging is kept up the road gradually gets built up of the puddle clay and becomes entirely impervious to moisture be- yond a small mud layer at the sur- face.

The present method of dumping loads of earth in the centre of the road is entirely wrong. and the road does not recover from it for a couple of years.

Mr. King maintains though that for sections where. the land is worth thirty dollars per acre it will pay the farmers to macadamize their roads if they can get the stone and gravel Within five or six miles. It the land is worth one hundred 101- lars per acre the macadamizing ma.- terial can be brought over 'a mindâ€" red miles with profit to the farm-3r. A macadam road stands more traffic than a dirt road. After the macadam road was built the King Drag was the best method of keeping it in shape, filling in ruts, pitchholes, etc, at a minimum cost. Mr. King makes it a practice ev- ‘ery spring of throwing the last of the largest snow drifts of! the road so that the road bed gets a chance to dry, and does not become cut up Iby being worked up by the traffic. He has had such good results from this practice that he is laying parti- cular stress on it in his lectures wherever the climate is cold enough for snow. the only method that does not make a road worse before it makes it bet- ter. It is the occasional mud hole that makes a road bad. One never sees a half mile of road entirely bad. The King Drag eliminates the ruts, mudholes and springy places. WWWWWWW Ontario roadmastere might save themselves a lot of trouble by a few minutes’ application of the snow shovel in the spring wherever the drifts have a. tendency: to hang on after the rest of the snow has disâ€" appeared. ASSAULT CASE A session of county police court was held yesterdav afternoon before County Police Magistrate Moore. Mr. Walter Harrison, of Toronto, was charged with assaulting Mr. Aaron Applebaum, of Lindsay. The assault, occurred in. Emily on Tuesday, Feb, 18th.

Have Smart and Lovely Hats ané Suits One Dear East of Dominion Eank, Kent Street he met Mr.’ Harrison and another man on the road near Downeyville. He said that the two men occupied the whole- road, and that it was me- cessary for him to turn out into the ditch. Witness said that the accused struck his horse with a. whip. He and accused had a few words. The other man present, (Mr. Costello) witness said, told him to mind his own business. Witness said that ac- cused hit him five or six times, but that he did not strive back. Mr. Ap- plebaum was in Downeyville again that day trying to find out who the other man was. He saw him and ac- cused also. Mr. Applebaum went to Dr. White for treatment on two oc- casions. Dr. Clarke, on being called, said he examined Mr. ApplebaUm some days after the assault». He found a slight irritation. Dr. White, in evidence submitted, said that Mr. Applebaum had an in- dication of inflammation in Hip 3e- gion in which he was struck (Lhe left side of the chest) and told him to take care of himself. Dr. Wood was the first witness for the defence. He said he had been re- quested by Mr. Harrison to examine Mr. Applebaum. He did so and did not find anything but a normal con- dition. past. but he did not. Then accused struck at Mr. Applebaum’s horse. Some talking ensued. Mr. Harrison then left his cutter and gave Mr. Applebaum a few punches. Mr. Ap- plebaum swore, and said he wanted the road. Mr. HarriSOn accused Mr. Applebaum of following him around. To Mr. O’Connor: Mr. Costello said he was on the beaten side of the road, and that there were no ditches Mr. Edward Costello was the next. witness. He said that he and Mr. Harrison were on the road talking. Accused told Mr. Applebaum to go on either side. At the time Mr. Har- rison struck Mr. Applebaum. Mr. Harrison had his back to Mr. Cosâ€"i tello. Mr. Harrison swore first. After! he was hit, Mr. Applebaum also; Mr. Costello told the men; swore. they should not fight. He told Mr. , Harrison not to hit Mr. Applebaum.‘ Mr. Applebaum did not have time to ’ hear much of the conversation. He could have passed on the other side“ Mr. Walter Harrison said that 'he had seen Mr. Applebaum several‘ times that day.

He told Ap- plebaum he did not want him “butt- ing in.” around. He said that he and Mr. Lcstello were not on the road. Wit- ness said Mr. Applebaum drove right up to his cutter. ”Mr. Harrison told him to go on, as he was not going to allow him to interfere any more. Witness said Mr. Applebaum said he had a right to the road. Mr. Apple- baum stood up in his cutter, and witness said he either hit him or pushed him. Messrs. Hopkins and O’Connor re- viewed the evidence. n In giving Judgment Magistrate Moore said he would have to find Mr. Harrison guilty of assault, and impose a small fine. It had been shown in the evidence that Mr. Ap- plebaum could have driven past. He does not deny it himself. Mr. Ap- plebaum’s actions were an annoyance to Mr. Harrison. However, that did not free Mr. Harrison. It would be a warning to both of them. The Ma- gistrate imposed a fine of $2.00 and costs, the costs being $22.35. The death occurred ‘in Omemce 03’ cents.
