PRESERVE Your Rocrs.-A thrifty farmer,
who believes in making old things last in
these times, says: "rbere is one thing that
nearly everybody knows and hardly anybody
attends TO, that is, TO sprinkle Stacked lime on
their roofs once year, either in fall or spring.
If the shingles are covered ever so thick with
moss, the lime soon clears it of, leaving the roof
clean and white. and good fora dozen years long
er 1t ought to be put on pretty thick, and
rainy dayisthe best for the work. StrongwoOd
ashes will answer almost as well to keep old
roofs in repair but they will not look as nice.
To make new shingles last three or four times
the usual period, they need only to be soaked
a few days in tank half full Of thick lime
water, which must be stirred up well before
the shingles are put in"
