The use of tho split-log drag is im portant In putttng the roads in shape. There are over 2,000,000 miles of earth roads In the country, and the split-log drag is ot great service In keeping them In economical repair. Tho drag Is used In many states and In foreign countries. It Is used with two. three, or four homes, and is easily con structed. It is a mistake to, construct a heavy drag. A dry red cedar log Is tho best material for a drag. Red elm and wal nut when thoroughly dried are excel lent, and box elder, soft maple, or even willow are prefcrablo to oak, hickory or nsh. Tho log Bhould be seven or eight feet long, and from ten to twelve Inches In dlamotcr, and carefully split down tho middle. Tho heaviest and best slabs should be selected for tho front. At a point on the front slab four inches from tho end that is to bo at the middle of the road locate the center ot tho hole to recelvo a cross stake, and 22 inches from tho other end of tho front slab locate the center for another cross stake. Tho hole for tho middle stako will Ho on a lino connecting and halfway between tho other two. The back slab should then bo placed In a position behind the other. From the end at the middle of tho road measure 20 Inches for the center of the cross stake, and six Inches from the other end locate the center of tho SprainStBruises Stiff Muscles Sloan's Liniment will save hours of suffering For bruiso or sprain it gives instant relief.

Tho Towlo and tho Briggs Wyandottes were tho first to be shown, each of theso fanciers stating that tho Whlto Wyandottes kopt by them came as sports from tho Silver Wyandotto, and yet claim Is made that no ono can tell exactly where tho first Wyandotto originated, as Boveral breeders must havo been breeding for this typo of fowl nt about the samo time, and that all tho early Whlto Wyandottes wero sports from tho Silver variety is not likely to bo true.' It is thought that Whlto Cochin blood was Introduced In the making ot the White Wyandotto at tho beginning, as the bIzo, shape and color of tho eggs not only denotes this, but that feathers appear at times on tho legs makes this seem probable. Why dark feathers often appear in certain ot theso birds good enough to show Is often a mystery to tho breeder. Theso seldom appear In such numbers that they cannot handily bo pulled out.

The stakes should taper gradually toward tho ends. There should bono shoul der at tho point where the stakes en ter the slab. The stakes should be fastened in place by wedges only. When the stakes have been placed In position and tightly wedged a braco two inches thick and four inches wide should be placed diagonally to them at the ditch end. The brace Bhould be dropped on the front slab, so that its lower edge shall lie within an inch of the ground, while the other end should rest in the angle, between the Blab and the cud stake. A strip of iron about three and one-half feot long, threo or four inches wide, and one-half of an Inch thick may be used for tho blade. An ordinary trace chain is strong enough to draw tho Implement, pro vldcd the clevis Is not fastened through a link.

To get eggs in winter under the con ditions obtainable on a general farm is, I find, no difficult task If ordinary borso sense is used In tho matter of feeding and housing, wrltos W. K. Moore In an exchange. As far as pos sible I uso tho food grown on tho farm, feeding as soon nftcr daylight as prac ticable a mnsh composed of fine corn chop and alfalfa meal, half and half by mcusure. Feed all that the birds will clean up by noon, then give about ono gallon of oats to each 100 hens, scattering it In straw litter In tho scratching shed or hen house. At noon, or shortly after, I glvo all tho ear com thoy will clonn up by night, nnd let them shell it. For a meat food I get good results from the cracklings obtained from the local butcher for ono cont per pound, of which I glvo about two pounds to overv hundred lions three times n week. I find .that n good way to do this Is to mix tho cracklings In the mash when steaming it; this Boftena them so that the fowls will get every part that is not bone. I keep oyster nhell and dry cracked bono beforo them at nil times. Tho mash referred to Is mixed dry, nnd boiling water Is poured over It nnd It Is left to stenm for nt least two hours er better, over night. For variety, I mix with tho mash potatoes, beets or anything of the kind that la ohtnlnable; howover, a diet of oats, corn and alfalfn, with a llttlo meat, will give good profit in eggs.
