This plan works well here in Iowa: Take a plow and turn a shallow furrow on each side of the wheel track. When you drag the road this dirt is moved to the cen ter of the road. The next time plow a furrow on each side of the first furrows made, thus gradually widening the road. Don't try to move too much dirt nt once. A drag docs not do good work where there is a great deal of loose dirt. Plow each time you drag until youhave the road the width you want, then use the drag after every rain. Each time you drag go over the road several times and you will move lots of lirt t the center of the road. Persistant dragging will result in a good solid grade that will shed water and stand heavy haul ing. I have in mind several that were almost impassable in wet weather which have been transformed by the drag into solid smooth roads. Ward L. L. Martin, in Farmers' Mail and Rreeze.

Dean Kamm, who had his prelimi nary hearing before County Judge Bee son Tuesday was discharged from cus tody. A large number of witnesses were present to testify and the evi dence was almost wholly circumstan tial and not strong enough to hold the prisoner. One witness swore he had seen Kamm handling the pocket book which had held the money but that be ing the nearest to direct testimony Judge Beeson did not feel warranted in holding the young man for trial. Attorney T. J. Doyle ot Lincoln, who had charge of the defendants interests was well pleased at the outcome of the matter, while County Atty. Wm. A. Ram3ey stated that the Kamms and others told different stories while he was investigating the matter at Alvo thus making it difficult to find just cause for conviction.
