Wear Of Farm IMPLEMENTS. 2

When will We ever rest from our ex-
cessive haste and carelessness, and learn
to do things thoroughly. An English ex-
change tells us that their wagons and inn
plements last 20 years, while ours do not
last over FIVE or ten. Where is the differ
encel Are our mechanics poorer, or are
theytoO hasty, or dofarmers fearto pay
enough for frst-claSs work?
..ln America everything in the way of
implements and tools wears out very quick
ly; and harness, as well as every other
leather OF cloth, tears soon after it is new
and very often afterward. When l was
about IL years old, l learned to hold a plow
with a low-haudled wooden pillow that my
father had when he commenced farming,
before [ was born. And 10 afterward
this plow was stiEl inexistonce, having had
a new beam, and perhaps handles too, in
the time; but being a very handy and fa-
vorite implement, it was kept in repair for
the youngest ~plowboys to 90 with. He
bought a w%innowing machine by Cooch,
Just after Nc was in the business; and, al
thoagh he had great quantities of grain TO
winnow (at least 5000 or 1900 bushels
per year,, and lent it to winnow thousands
of bushels for other people, that machine
made more than half its cost price after
nearly thirty years ofwear.
Carts and wagons, though constantly
used, last a very long time in England,
and almost everything on a farm is made
to wear well; while in America they are
chiefly made for sale, and will be in need
of repair in a few days. Half the wagons
and dung-cartS in England are at least a
quarter of a century old; and the same
may be said of other implements; and an
eighth of all the tools, ETC., in existence
had their origin fifty years since They
are not taken better care of than here, nor
are they used less-but, on the contrary,
a great deal more; for there is as much
blowing done on 500 acres of arabic land
in England as there is on 1900 in Amer
lea, and as much grain grown on 500 acres
as there is on 5000. So that the wear
and tear in England does. not take the
effect it does here, because good wood and
iron are used, and good work made

says that his experience shows that two
quarts of cooked potatoes will do as much
toward fatteniug as four fed raw, and that
the value Of corn meal is very nearly dou-
