In the first place, the dragging of the road has the effect of freeing it from holes and ruts. This is parâ€" ticularly true of clay roads. The enemy of any road is water, and the effect of travel on clay roads is to form a paste on the surface, which prevents water from running away. Of course if the road were properly graded it would present a rounded surface to water and the mud trouâ€" ble would be climinated. If used at the proper time the drag preâ€" pares the surface, which, as it dries, is packed by travel and beâ€"| , The big problem in dealing with roadways is that of maintaining a hard, smooth surface. To ensure this, of course, the first two essenâ€" tials are proper draining and proâ€" per grading. If the roads, howâ€" ever, have reccived any permanent coating, it will be necessary to folâ€" low up good construction with conâ€" stant attention to the condition of the surface, and in keeping this in good order the road drag will be found to work wonders. be offered would be made upon a most generous hbasis. It can be easily seen, therefore, that Ontario is on theâ€"verge of a new era of roadâ€" building. While all this may be true, however, it cannot be denied that a great many years will pass before permanent improvements can be made on all roads. Even with the completion of the most comprehensive scheme of road conâ€" struction, the greater per centage of mileage in the Province will reâ€" main as common earth roads. While supporting the general move. ment, therefore, towards road imâ€" provement throughout the Proâ€" vince, the farmer cannot afford to neglect the dirt roads that pass his own door. To look after these roads he must find some method of treatment more or less inexpensive, and in his search he will find nothâ€" ing that is cheaper and more effecâ€" tive than the homeâ€"made drag alâ€" ready mentioned. It is undoubtedly true that both Dominion and Provincial Governâ€" ments will take up in the near fuâ€" ture the work of extensive road construction throughout the counâ€" try. Tht Provincial Legislature has announced the expenditure of at least five millions dollars in & very short time, and the Minister of Public Works has stated that this will be but the beginning of greater things in the way of highway conâ€" struction. The Dominion Governâ€" ment also announces that the asâ€" sistance promised some time ago will be forthcoming shortly, and in a recent address in Toronto the Hon. Martin Burrell declared that any subsequent help which would Y _ be P WSws The Splitâ€"Log Drag Will Soive the Problem, One of the greatest difficulties which the farmer in Ontario has to face toâ€"day is that of. bad roads. One of the most effective instruâ€" ments in solving this problem is the splitâ€"log drag, and ju:t as the bad condition of the roads is & most costly problem, so the drag is the cheapest of remedies. | One of the g which the farmer face toâ€"day is t} One of the â€"mosi GOOD ROAD FOR THE FARMER ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO be attacked simultaneously, and persons of all ages are affected.

An Epidemic is Raging at Vienna, ' Austria, A despatch from Vienna, Austria. says: The worst epidemic of influâ€" enza on record is afflicting the Austrian capital, Hall a million cases have been reported during the past three months, according to the statistics of the City Health Deâ€" partment, and the epidemic is still raging so severely as to tax the clfiu:ity of the private doctors, public hospitals and nursing instiâ€" Eufionl. Whole families appear to The results attained by the long drag are so immediate, so apparent and so beneficial, that if it is once tried out in a community its use is sure to spread. The farmer who is in earnest about the road problem should get a drag and use it. When any person in opsrating the drag is found to do inferior work or to reglect the roads, the work can be taken from him for the enâ€" suing year. 8. The work of using the spl drag should be inspected from . | 2O Never, when the road is only parâ€" ; tially dry and sticky, the earth will |roll up in lumps instead of spreadâ€" | ing freely. | No rules can be laid down as to | the number of times a good section of road should be dragged.

If a road shows a tendency to beâ€" come too high in the middle, it can be dragged twice towards the cenâ€" tre and once away from it. Loose stones in the centre of the road | should be removed. The drag itsel? , will even down any other inequaliâ€" ties in the surface. By dragging up one side of the road and down the other, the edges of the log plane off all ridges and obstacles and draw the loosened material sidewise and ward, thus filling the holes and [fi’.‘u and crowning it at the middle }oftherocd. o o ienss System Needed for Suceess, * The efficiency of this simple deâ€" vise in making an earth road as| good as an earth ruad can possibly be, has been proved over and over again. One thing, however, is abâ€" solutely necessary to success, and ; that is thoroughness in following up the practice of dragging the roads. | Bpasmodic effort is useless, and it|‘ 2 6e of the road, and the rear corâ€" ner at the centre. The drag should not be made too heavy so that it can be lifted by one man and manâ€" aged by one team of horses, When to Use the Drag, The best time to use the drag is when the soil is moist, but not too ‘‘sticky,‘"" as then the earth is loose and runs along the faces of the slabs, spreading smoothly. _ The road can also be treated when the earth is very wet and slushy, as during a rain, or immediately afterâ€" wards. If any dragging is done, . however, when the road is only parâ€" ‘ tially dry and sticky, the earth will roll up in lumps instead of sprv‘ad-‘ ing freely. VIRULENT IXFLUENZA.
