TOOLS.
Why They should be Carefully Protected
 From the Elements.

Why They should be Carefully Protected
 From the Elements.
 It is safe to say that exposure to weather ruins more tools and farm machinery of all kinds than does their legitimate use Flows and harrows are allowed to remain where they were last used. exposed to rain and heat tor weeks a. a time. Because they are mostly iron they are supposed not to be injured by such exposure, when the fact is that more of the metal is lost in this way, from rust, than by wear from contact with the soil. Wagons are left fJ stand without shelter, and being alternately rained upon and then exposed to the suns rays. the spokes become loose in the hubs. the fclloes shrink. tires need to be reset frequent ly, and the entire wood work is so in jured that it does not last half its legit- innate life. Mowers and headers are often left standing. without particle of shelter. from one years end to. the other. entailing heavy bill for repairs each season. as well as frequent pur- chases of new parts or entire ma chimes. The excuse for this neglect to properly care for the farm machinery is in most cases the inability to provide suitable shelter. by reason of the high price of lumber. But this is a most flimsy excuse. as by little work an admirable shelter may be provided at a nominal cost for material. There are very few places where there is not a suficiency of timber to furnish poles with which a framework may be put up and on which q sufficient quantity of straw may be put to keep out most of the rain aud all of the sun This straw is now almost universally vast ed. and a matter of 6 day or two's time will suffice to build 8 shelter which will answer all purposes until a more substantial structure can be pro vided. Many 6 dollar which would otherwise go to the blacksmith can thus be saved. while the tools will at the same time always be found in con dition for immediate use.
 A can or two of prepared paint should be kept on hand at all times. and no more profitable occupation for a rainy day can be devised than in go- ing over the machinery, tightening up nuts and bolts, giving the wood work a coat of paint and attending to all the little repairs. which are so vexstious when requiring to be made at the same time that important work is waiting to be done.-SGn Francisco ChroRtcte-

Luxury Fatal to Life.

Luxury and leisure are more fatal to human life than downright hard work, whether of muscle or of brain Steady labor of the body hardens the muscles. invigorates the nerves, and gives the deep rhythmic movement of health to the breathing. Steady labor of the mind purifies. invigorates and feeds both mind and brain. Lack of bodily labor results in bodily atrophy and wasting; lack of toll of the brain means the gradual death Of the mind. Over work sometimes kills; complete cessa- ton of activity always kills. There are twenty men who are in danger of mental or spiritual deterioration through unemployed leisure for every one man who is in the same danger through oyerwork You need more rest, do you? and every day you feel as if YOU would need still longer reste See to it that it is not inactivity that is weakening you, rather than overwork; see to it that your faculties are not dy- ing because they have too little rather than too much to dos.

Eternal Vigilance the Price or RAi.f.x .
 Flock.
 To begin with. restrain your desire to count your young turkeys and let them alone for the first twenty-four hours after they get into this ''cold and un- feeling world At the expiration of that time they will be quite strong and decidedly hungry; remove them to a clean. airy. roomy coop, and give them ter hrst meal-only it mustn't be meal al all-but boiled eggs, stale wheat-bread crumbs just moistened with milk or water, Dutch" cheese. or a mixture of all these. For the first two weeks feed entirely with the eggs. bread. eurds, cooked rice. and cooked outmeal. About the third week commence feeding cooked corn meas; and from that on they may be given any cooked food that would be suitable for chickens of the same ace. Season all food slightly with salt and pepper. and twice week add 6 level tablespoonful of bone meal to q pint of feed Never feed any sour food or sloppy food of any kind. except sour milk, and never feed any uncooked food of any kind until after they have thrown out the red on their heads. Feed often. five or six times a day, until they are three months old; then, if insects are numer- ous, you may gradually reduce the number of meals per day to three. or even two. After they are three months old, they may be given wheat, cracked corn, etc, but no whole corn until | they are some five months old. Keep the GOODS dry and clean. and the turkeys out of the dew and rains until | they are fully feathered, and have thrown out the red. Dampness and | filth will kill young turkeys as surely as a dose of poison. For the first few days cOniine the poults to the limits of | the coop and safety run; then. if all | appear strong and we'll, give the mother | hen and her brood liberty on pleasant | days after the dew is of. If they get | caught out in a shower. get them to | are chilled take them to the house and | dry and warm them. See | that the little turkeys come home every | night. A hen mother will come home | at night-fall, but the turkey mother | must for the first few nights be hunted up and driven home. After they are three months old turkeys are quite hardy, and may be allowed to range at all times. If turkeys that are well cared for, and have always seemed all right. show signs of dropping when about six weeks ar two months old. give Douglas | mixture in the drink or food. and add a little cooked meat to the food once a Farmer.
