TROUSDALE ROUTE 1
Five years ago the roads leading
out from \\ ellsville, Kansas, were
about as bad as any roads in the
Sunllowcr -late. In March, 1900,
I). Ward King, of Mis-ouri,, the
originator of the split-log drag, held
a meeting in Wellsville and told
the faro > is how to build the road
with his drag, making a demonstra-
tion of its workings. Seventy-five
farmers then pledged themselves to
build drags and use them. In the
spring of 1907 the roads draged bad
been so improved that a good sized
load could be driven to town any
day in the year. Today every road
leading into Wellsville is draged
regular. What this means is shown
bv the rural carriers whose routes
run out of Wellsvilh -both carry the
mail on motor cycles. I'heir routes
are between'21 and 25 miles and
they cover them regularly making
all deliveries and collections in
about two hours; one of them get-
ting over his route a few <la.vs ago
: in exactly two hours, .lu-t, imag-
ine even getting over an avearge
