County and township officials may at the outset stand the expenae of hav ing a road built, but they atrenuoualy object when asked to provide funda to rebuild the road that haa been al lowed to go to ruin. It la Important that farmers learn of the benefits to be derived from good earth roads; that county boards be Impressed with the need of, a proper maintenance of the same, and that road builders and overseers learn how beat to care for the roada In their charge. The persistent and powerful ene mies of earth roads are water and narrow urea, ana the constant effort of the men In charge of the roads should be to guard against their de structive effects and remedy all dam age as quickly as possible. The sim ple Implements which have been found to be of greatest assistance In this work are the plow, the drag scraper, the wheel scraper, the road grader and the split-log drag. . With a sandy soil and a sub-soil of clay, or clay and gravel, deep plow ing so as to raise and mix the clay with the surface soil and sand will prove beneficial. The combination forms a sand-clay road at a trifling expense. On the other hand, If the road be entirely of sand a mistake will be made If It Is plowed, unless clny can be added. Such plowing would merely deepen the sand, and at the same time break up the small amount of hard surface material which may have formed. If the sub-soil la clay and the surface acant In sand or grav el, plowing should not be resorted to, aa It would result In a clay surface rather than one of sand or gravel. A road foreman must know not only what to plow and what not to plow, but how and when to plow. If the road la of thi kind which according to the above Instructions should be I.SIEGRIST& CO.

It is -xneclnlly srevlceablo. It la a mis take, however, to attempt to handle long haul material with this scraper, as the wheel scraper is better adapt ed to such work. For hauls of more than 800 feet, a wagon shoult'. Be used. ' The machine most generally used In road work is the grader, or road ma chine. This machine Is especially use ful In smoothing and crowning the road and In opening ditches. A clay sub-soil under a thin coating of soil should not be disturbed with a grad er. It la also a mistake to use a grader Indiscriminately and to pull material from ditches upon a sand- clay road. Not Infrequently turf, soil and silt from ditch bottoms are plied In the middle of the road In a ridge. making mudholes a certainty. It I important In ualng a grader to avoid building up the road too much at one time. A road gradually built un hv frequent use of the grader will last better than It completed at one opera tion. The foreman frequently thinks hla road must be high in the first In stance. He plies up material from 18 inches to a foot In depth, only to learn with the arrival of the first rain, that he has furnished the materlaly for as many Inches of mud. All th ma terial should be brought up In thin layers, each layer well puddled and firmly packed by roller or traffic be fore the next Is added. A common mistake is to crown too high with th j road machine on a narrow road. The split-log drag should be used to fill In ruts and smooth the road when not too badly washed. The' For Sale.
