Excerpt from Engineering Experiment Station of Iowa State College, Vol. 2: The Good Roads Problem in Iowa

We advise the farmers to start using the drag without waiting for the road officers to take it up. They will be well repaid for their trouble by the saving of time and expense in using the roads, and the increase in value of their land due to a good road in front of it.

We also advise the road officers to adopt the road drag, and to pro wide farmers with free materials to make them, and to hire the roads dragged where the farmers do not themselves undertake the work. There is no possible use of the road funds known to us which will yield such great returns for so small an outlay. In fact the outlay will be more than saved by the lessened need for the big road grader, with it's great cost of operation.
