GREAsINo WAaoNs.--But few
people are aware that they do wag'
ons and carriages more injury by
greasing too plentifully than in
any other way. A we'll made
wheel will endure common wear
from ten to twenty-five years. Il
care is taken to use the right kind
and proper amount of grease, but
if this matter is not attended TO.
they will be used up in five or six
years. Lard should never be used
on wagon, for it will penetrate
the hub and work its way out
around the lemons OF the spokes.
and spoil the wheel. Tallow is the
best labricator for VOID axletress,
and castor oil for iron.
Just enough grease should be
applied to the spindle OF q wagon
to give it a light coating; this is
better than more, for the surplus
put on will work out at tho ends.
and bo forced by the shoulder bands
and nut. washers into the hub around
the outside of the boxes.
To oil an iron axletree, first wipe
the spindle clean with cloth wet
with spirits of turpentine, and then
apply a few drops Of castor oil near
the shoulder and end. Que teas
poonful is sufficient for the whole
Ohio Farmer.

A BEAUTIFUL THouGuT.-The

that ocean cemetery the king and

same waves roll over all--the same
