fer on vith cog-wheels, as they greatly fe-
lieve the rubber soils from strain that
Wonld otherwise occur, and add mfth 20
the durability of the machsNe. The next

arranged as not to fly apart when n large:
article 10 passed between thefollefs. 1t
mhtters not whether the cog-wheels are on
one end or both ends of the shaft, IL large
articles disconnect them, they are entirely
uBeiess. This is very. important for.yEv
the larger the article, the greater the strain.
therefore, If the cog-wheels separate so M.

most needed. We have taken some pains
to examine the various %wringers, and much

CEMENT FoR LEATHER The Coachmak-
er's Journal rays, of fhe many substances
lately brought very conspicuonsly % noticH
for fastening pieces. ofleather together, and
in. mending harness, joining machinery
betting, and making shoes, one ofthe best
IL made by mixing ten parts Of sulphide OF
carbon with one of oil of t~urpentine, and
then adding enough gutta percha tomato
Nstongh, thickly-flowing liquid : One es
sential prerequisite to a thorough union Of
the parts consists in freedom of the sur
faces to be joined nom greasS. tTHismay
be accomplished Ivy laying a cloth upon
them and applying n hot iron for a time.
The cement is then applied to both pieces,
the surfaces brought in contact, and pres.
sure applied until the Join. is dry. iTI.I.
WATKR-PRooF CLorH.-To make water
proof cloth take two pounds and four oun-
ces Of alum aud dissolve il inten gallons.
Of waters ia like manner dissolve thesame
quantity Of sugar Of lead in n similar
quantity Of water, and mix the two togeth-'
or. The cloth Is immersed for one hourin
the solution, and stirred occasionally, when
IL Is taken ont dried in the shade, wished
in clean water and dried again. This pre-
p~aration enables the cloth TO repel water
like the feathers Of a ducks back, and yet
allows the p~erspiration. TO pass somewhat
freely through II, which isnot the case with
tgutta-percha or ndia-rubber cloth.
Ears FOR PAN BAms.-1he balls of wa
ter and slop pals, around the barn often
get loosened or come OIL, by the breaking
Of tho ears, and the pail has to bo carried
between Tie two hands, because the farm
er has no sheet or hoop iron TO make them
Of. Leather for pail ears answers a good
purpose. Take a strip of harness or boot
leather, one inch wide and three inches
long, punch a bail hole through near the
top, and tack 1t on with small nails. Ifthe
leather il good, a pair OF cars will last a
yearsor morn, Pieces Of old boot tops will
answer well, -0hio Fdrmsr.
To REMOVE SUBSTANCES mon THE EYE
To remove foreign bodies from the eyolid,
take hold Of the upper eyeiid, near its ang-
les, with tho index finger and thumb OF
each hand. Draw II gently forward, aud "a
low down as possible over the lower eyelid,
and retain II in this position for about a
minute, taking care to prevent the tears
flowing out. Whom, at the end of this time
you allow the eyelid to resume its place, a
food Of tears washes out the foreign body.
which will be found adhering 70, or near
to, the lower lid. -. :

as for fresh meat. II is not too much to
allow half an hour for every pound of meat
