Split-Log Drag Day Suggested In order to have the Pacific High way In Washington, Oregon and Cal ifornia leading into Medford in the best possible condition for travel by automobile for the good roads con vention to be held on July 27 and 28, the Tri-State. Good Roads Association is sending out bulletins to all county commissioners and supervisors re questing the setting of a date in their respective counties for a Road Drag Day, prevailing upon the owners of land along the highway to improve their roads by the split-log drag. The perspective illustration of this simple implement shows plainly the good points of a road drag, its cheap ness of construction and method of use. Exeracts from Farmer Bulletin No. 321, U. S. . Department of Agricul ture: "There are at present in this eountry about two million miles of earth roads, most of which must be maintained by some means more or , less inexpensive. The split-log drag is of great service on roads of our rural highways and can be kept In repair economically and lo ngod con dition by the use of this simple Im plement. Construction of Split-Log Drag. "The author by experiment with mnay varieties of devices for road dragging has found that the two-slab log drab with liberal 'set-back' is the most satisfactory. "The drag should be so light that one man can easily lift it, besides a light drag responds more readily to various methods of hitching and weight of the operator, both of which are essential considerations. "The log should be seven or eight feet long and from ten to twelve Inches In diameter, carefully split down the middle, the heaviest slab to be selected for the front. "At a point on this front slab four inches from the end that is to be at the middle of the road locate the center of the hole to receive a cross stake, and twenty-two inches from the other end of the front slab locate the center for another cross stake. The hole for the middle stake will He on a line' connecting and half way between the other two. The back idab should now be placed in position behind the other. From the end which Is to be at the middle of the road measure twenty inches for the renter of the cross stake, and six Inches fro mthe other end locate the renter of the outside stake. . Find the center of the middle hole as be fore. When these holes are brought opposite each other one end of the back slab will be 16 inches nearer the center of the roadway than the front one, giving what Is known as 'set back.' The holes should be two inches in diameter. The hole to re ceive the forward end of the chain should be bored at the same time. "The two slabs shouiu 'e held 30 inches apart by the stakes The stakkes should taper gradually to ward the ends. There should be no shoulder at the point where the stakes enter the slab. The stakes should be fastened 'in places by wedges only. "When the stakes have been placed in position and tightly wedged, a brace two inches thick and four inches wide should be placed diago nally to them at the ditch end. A strip of iron about 3 feet long, three or four inches wide and one fourth of an inch thick may be sued for the blade, and a platform of inch boards held together by three cleats can be placed on the stakes between the slabs. "An ordinary trace chain is strong enough to draw the implement, pro- ided the clevis is not fastened through a link. The chain should be rapped around the rear stake, then passed over the front slab. Raising the chain at this end of the slab al- ows the earth to drift past the face of the drag. The other end of the hain should be passed through the hole in the end of the slab and is held by a pin passed through a link. ne and one-half trace chains are sufficient. How to Use a Drag. The successful operation of a drag nvolves two principles. The first concerns the length and position of the hitch, while the second deals with the position of the driver on the rag. Each Influences the other to large extent, and successful manip ulation of the drag Is dependent upon n understanding of both of them. "For ordinary purposes the snatch ink or clevis should be fastened far enough toward the blade end of the chain to force the unloaded drag to follow the team at an angle of 45 degrees. This will cause the earth to move along the face of the drag smoothly and will give comparatively light draft to the team, provided the driver rides in the line of draft. "The distance fro mthe drag at which the team is hitched affects the depth of the cutting. Shortening the chain tends to lift the front slab from the ground; a longer hitch causes the blade to cut more deeply. The length of hitch may be regulated by lengthening and shortening the chain at the end which runs through the hole in the blade end of the drag. "Usually two horses are enough to pull a drag over an ordinary earth road. "The object of the drag is to move earth toward the center of the road way and to raise it gradually above the surrounding level. While this is being accomplished all mud holes and ruts will be filled, in which traf fic will pack the fresh earth. "The drag does the best work when the soil is moist, but not Btlcky. Use of a Drag on Kooky or Gravelly IloadM. "In soils full of loose stones or even small bowlders the drag does good service. The loose stones are drawn into a windrow down the cen ter of the raod while the earth is deposited around the bowlders in such a way that the surface is lev eled. "The approximate cost of a split- log drag, labor and material, is about 13; the cost for dragging one mile going over several times, team and driver. Is Just what you will make It from $1 up, depending on the num ber of times requires to go over the rough road. "The advantages to be pained from the persistent use of a road drag may bo summarized as follows: "1. The maintenance of a smooth, serviceable earth road free from ruts and mud holes. "2. Obtaining such a road surface with the expenditure of very little money and labor In comparison with the money and labor required for other methods. "3. The reduction of mud In wet weather and of dust in dry weather." It kas a mere accident that check ers drove a Hoosler Insane.

How It Cam to Be placed Under th Treasury Department. The United States revenue cutter service is a military arm of the govern went attached to tind under the direc tion of the treasury department The service was organized In 1700 and con stituted the original naval force of the country. There was at thnt time no navy department, and the service was placed under the treasury department, where It has remained ever since. It Is charged with the enforcement of the navigation and customs laws of the Cnited States, the assistance of vessels in distress, the protection of the seal ing industry in Alaska, the enforce ment of the quarantine laws, the de struction of derelicts and other floating dangers to navigation and numerous other duties appropriate to Its class of vessels. Each winter, by direction of the president, a number of the cutters patrol the const for the special purpose of assisting vessels In distress. The service co operates with the navy when directed by the president aud has so co-operated in every war in which the United States has been en gaged. It Is sometimes called the reve nue marine service, but revenue cutter service Is the proper name. There are forty-three cutters In the service, and they carry from one to five or six guns each. Philadelphia- Press. HYGIENE IN THE DESERT. Our Latter Day Methods Were an Open Book to Moses. Nothing under the sun Is new. Facts have proved that even the pitch which hygiene has reached at the present day was equaled and in many instances excelled under the laws of Moses. The particular and careful manner In which animals are slaughtered accord ing to the laws of the Talmud is ac knowledged today to be the most sani tary method possible. Professor Koch gave to the world the valuable results of his Investigations in bacteriology, but several thousand years before that the Mosaic law polnfv ed out the danger to humanity from tuberculosis In cattle, but did not for bid poultry as food. It was not many years ago that specialists discovered that fowl tuberculosis was harmless to man. The yearly exodus to the country and seaside is no new Innovation. Moses, the great lawgiver, prescribed not only feasting at certain seasons of the year, but the removal of whole families to great camping grounds In the open spaces, where they could live near to nature.

In the American Magazine appears an article entitled "A Modern Opium Eater." written by a newspaper man, who became a victim of the habit and is now a convict in a penitentiary. In the course of the article the author quotes as follows what a Chinese den keeper said to him about the power of the habit to bold its victims: "You no quit Every man alleetlrne say he quit Every man alleesame yon.
