Many Miles Are Now Dragged Syste-
matlcallj- After Each Rain With
Excellent Results.
Mesilla Park. N. M., April 26. Since
the Dona Ana county road board came
into office a striking object lesson has
been given as to the value of the road
tax for New Mexico highways.
Many miles of roads throughout Dona
Ana county are now regularly dragged
by a system that works automatically
after each rain. The Dona Ana county
road board has from one to three depu
ties in each of the precincts of the
county: all of whom serve without
salaryy. By a system of bulletins,
thee deputies are kept fully Informed
as to the most practical and beneficial
methods of improving highways. One
bulletin explains when and how to use
the drag, and the county has several
dozen drags distributed throughout
the various precincts. As soon after a
rain as the ground can be worked, the
drags are out in these various precincts,
without any further effort on the part
of the road board. As an illustration
the entire length of .the Camino Real
between Dona Ana and the Texas line,
a distance of approximately 36 miles,
was dragged on Monday last, after Sun
day's rain, the deputy in each precinct
being authorized under the arrange
ments heretofore made to hire teams,
hitch them to the drags and keep them
busy on the road.
The net result of this dragging sys
tem is an Improvement of several hun
dred percent in the main highways of
Dona Ana county "Within the past six
months, since the road board came into
office. Most of the roads in the county
are dirt roads, and the dragging bene
fits them in more ways than one. Re
peated dragging gradually throws up
a grade. It fills depressions and holes
in the road, and after a rain the surface
is made smooth and in the finest con
dition for travel, so that subsequent
rains do not leave pools which develop
into small mud holes and ruin the sur
face of the road. More than that, re
peated dragging seems to anneal the
surface of the road and cause it to
bind into a hard surface that wears
well. During the past two or three
months the roads which have been
dragged and which in former years
broke up rapidly into chuckholes and
sandy spots during the dry season, kept
their wearing surface and remained in
excellent condition.
The Dona Ana county raod board has
found that the light wooden drags are
the most practical. They cost about
one-third the price of the steel drags,
and the "wooden drag can be handled by
a single team, whereas the steel drag
requires three or four horses, and do
no better work. Another important
point is that the dragging be done in
telligently and, so far as possible, by
the same individual each time, so that
such person can learn to manipulate It
to the best advantage. This is another
argument for the maintenance of the
deputy system first Inaugurated by the
Dona Ana county road board, as in
this way the same man has charge of

verted by the Dan.
Canutlllo, Tex., April 26. The dam
erected in the river during the winter
to divert the river along the railroad
so as to reclaim some valuable valley
land, broke" last night and the water
is back in the old channel again. This
dam was erected jointly by El Paso
county and land owners at a cost of
I1SM. The loss, it is claimed, will fall
on the contractor.
The cold nights have retarded the
growth of alfalfa In this section, but
no serious damage has been done.
Farmers expect to commence cutting
about May 10. There will be no big
rush to market the first 'cutting as
most of the farmers have erected large
storage barns and are in position to
hold their hay.
Many auto parties pass through here
on cross country tours. One party
left Frisco on Aoril S hv wav nf ths
