Ahout Farm Imnlements.

1t is penny wise and pound foolish" to
buy poor implements because they can be
got loso. Such will cost a vast deal of time
and patience, and no little money to keep
them in order, and even then not work sat
isfactorily. Moreover, there is great deal
of pleasure in using machine or simple
tool Of the best make, not because they are
expensive, but because they are handiest,
and on the long run they are the best and
cheapest. The interest at ten per cent. is
only 81 year on an implement costing
SO, while it is SO cents on one costing SIS.
Very often the SO implements will save
half dollar day over the So one. by it's
better work, and saving of man and team
power. Nor is this all that is important
about Implements. When bought, they
should be taken care of. Before attempting
TO use them. they should be put into per-
feet working order. The knives of a now
ing-maehine should be well ground, the
wheels and joints oiled, and the whole gear
ing put into complete trim before starting
it; otherwise it will get out of order, time
and patience will be lost, and the whole work
be done enthusiastically. The same is true
in general of harrows, horse-rakes. rollers,
plows. hoes, shovels, and the commonest
tools of the farmers carpenter shop. Have
place for veTything, aud then keep every
thing in its place. and always in good work
ing condition. But where do we often find
the farmers implements 2 To-day. we saw
a pillow standing in the fuFrow, and yester-
day one thrown up by the. side of the fence
where the fall blowing ended. Last fall.
we saw cultiyators and horse-rakes dragged
up into the corner Of field among the bush
es. Sometimes. the expensive horse-pow-
er. instead of being carefully housed. is left
out in all weaihers, from one thrashing sea-
son to another. Implements so used, sell
dom get their iron work oiled to prevent
rust. or their wood work painted to prevent
rot. Its the testimony of good farmers,
that the time aud money spent in painting
their tools. is more than repaid in their in
creased durability. There, are very few
farmers who can afford to have such large
holes in their pockets as this. ecarelessness
makes. One must be either very rich or be
making money very fast to be able tosupporL
such extravaganza. If It be true, as it is
