Tire Makes
Loud Report
A novel blowout occurred In the
plaza this afternoon when the tire
on H. J. Boyd's auto went PING. The
hot weather and poor tire had caused
the blowout, which ripped about two
feet of tire off and caused the inner
tube to come clear outside of the

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."

'REVENUE CUTTER SERVICE.
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. Pearson's Weekly.
A Chinaman on th Opium Habit.
In the American Magazine appears
an article entitled "A Modern Opium

who became a victim of the habit and

quotes as follows what a Chinese den
keeper said to him about the power of
the habit to bold its victims:
