inlet. when they see that almo‘st every
house is supplied with a flagpole.
And they are right about the patriot-
ism. but it just bdppens that the poles
are not for flags. but for meat.
Knik is on the trail to ldltnrod and
the Kuskokwlm valley, and In the
. summer the sled dogs and the flies are
so thick that It is Impossible to keep
meat in ordinary caches near ~ the
around.
There Is no butcher shop in Knit: and
the only fresh meat is mouse or Alaska
sheep brought in by the hunters. it‘s
very handy for the housewives of Kulk
to have the meat supply of the town
up in the air. If hubby has poor luck
with his gun and the supply runs out.
all she has to do is to go to the door,
pick out her neighbor who has the
largest supply on hand and go borrow
a steak or two.

as so they dillcl for rorfds, says the'
roads expert of the Department of Au.- ‘
ricuiture. Clay or soils of line text

ly if they contain much vegetable mat- E
tor. The coarser soils, however, which]
contain some sand or gravel, will ot— ’

if the road in composed of fine clay 3

mixed with It. This method, called
the top-soil method, is now in success-I
i‘ul use in Virginia, North Cnrclina,‘
and Georgia, . and probably ether
states. W" W!!!
The earth load can best be crowned
and ditched with a road machine, and '
not with picks and shovels. scoops and
plows. One road machine, with a
suitable power and operator, will do
the work- oi" many
and shovels, and do it bcitrr.
The road machine should be used
when the soil ls damp, so as to make
the soil bake when it dries cut. it it
is worked dry, it takes more lower to
draw tilt machine. and, besides, dry
earth and dust retain moisture and
quickly rut after ruins. The use of
clods, sods, weeds or vegetable inal-
icr in building earth roads should be
.avoldedbecause they also retain mois-
lure.
It is a great mistake to put the
working of the earth off until August
or September. The-earth. is then buk-
ed dry and hard. if is not only dif-
‘ficult to work but' is unsatisfactory
”work when done. Earth which is
loose and dry will remain dusty as
long -as the dry weather lusts and
then turn to mud as soon as the. rains
begin. By using the road machine in
the spring of the year while the soil
is soft and damp, the surface is more
easily shaped and packs down into
a dry bard crust which is less liable
to become dusty in summer or muddy
in winter.
Storm waterochculd be disposed of
quickly before it has time to pene
trnte deeply into the surface. This
can be done by giving the road a.
crown or alone from the center to the
sides. For an earth road which is
24 feet wide. the center should be not
lesattban 6 inches nor more thauda
inches higher than the outer edges of
the shoulders. A narrow road which
is too high In the middle will become
rutted almost as quickly as one which
is too flat for the reason that on the
narrow road all the traffic is forced
to use only a narrow strip.
Shoulders are often formed on both
sides of the road which prevent storm
water from flowing into side ditches.
iretainlng it in the rats and softening
itbe roadway. These rats and should-
ers can be entirely eliminated with
the road machine or split-log drag.
Ordinarily, the only ditches need-
ed are those made with the road ma;
chine, which are wide and shallow.
Deep, narrow ditches wash rapidly, es-
pecially on steep slopes, which is an-
other good reason for decreasing the
steepness of the grades. It is dif-
ficult to maintain an earth road, or
any kind of road for that matter. on
a steep grade.
The width of the earth road will
depend on the traffic. As a rule, 25
or 30 feet from ditch to ditch is suf~
ficlent, if the road is properly crowned.
A road that/is narrower than 25 fleet
is difficult to maintain for the above
reason stated than. any narrow roads
teams are more apt to track than on
a wider road causing it to rut if sub-'
jected to heavy hauling.
, The road should not be loosened, l
dug, or plowed up any more than is
'absclutcly necessary The road should
be gradually raised, not low cred: hard-
ened, not softened. !
On flat lands, where water moves
slowlyJ grading material should ,be
liaken 'irom the lower ditch and rul-
verts supplied where waterways oc-
cur. A shallow ditch on the upper
side makes it possible to give cul-
vorts a good fall. Two or more small
pipes, instead of one large one. of
equal capacity, may be used for cui-
vcrts; especially if the large. .pipe ne-

about 13 3-4 miles per hour. The dis-
charge for the 24 in. pipe in the first.
instance will be 5,086 gallons per min-
ute, and for the steeper grade, 28,260
gallons per minute. It will therefore
be seen that a 24 in. pipe laid on a.
grade of 36 in. to the 100 it, will have
over five times the capacity of the
same size pipe laid on a grade of l in.
to the 100 it.
Under the same conditions the max-
imum velocity for a 12 in. tile on a
grade of l in. per 100 ft. equals 1 1-4
ft. per second, or about 7-8 miles per
hour and for the same tile on a grade
of 36 in. to the 100 ft. the velocity
would be 7% ft. per second, or about
5 1-6 miles per hour: The discharge
for the 12’ in. tile in the first instance
would be 442 gallons per minute, and
for the steeper grade 2,650 gallons per
minute, or about five times as much.
By increasing the fall, we increase
the capacity of the pipe, decrease the
size of the pipe necessary, and them
fore decrease the cost of the culverts
Furthermore, culverts laid flat will
soon dill up, but if given a good fall,
they will keep themselves clear.
if much fall is obtained in a culvert
pipe. the spiilway should be paved.
Earth should be lumped under and
around the pipe in layers, and should
be of sutliclent depth to prevent the
pipe from being broken by traffic; but
under no circumstances should a ridge
over the culvert be allowed, for it not
only endangers the life of the culvert.

The water should be drained oil by

Because of its simplicity, its efficien—
cy and chcapness, the split-log drag or
some similar device is destined to
come into more and more general use.
,With the drag properly built and its
use well understood, the maintenance
of earth and gravel roads becomes a
simple and inexpensive matter. Care
should be taken to make the log so
