DRIVING THROUGH MUD.
How to Prevent Needless Wear and Deca
Of Ruggies and Wagons.

How to Prevent Needless Wear and Decay
Of Buggies and Wagons.
After heavy rain, when carriage
roads are covered with two or three in
inches (more or less) of partly liquid
mud, buggy may be driven for miles
with such care as to receive very little
of it except what adheres to the rims
of the wheels. Or a mud-pOol extend
ing the whole breadth of the road may
have to be passed and would spoil the
new varnish of the vehicle unless the
driver has learned by trial how fast
he must drive for the occasion. We
have seen careful driving over a GER
tain road. with scarcely any deface-
ment: and again needless driving over
the same line with formidable damage.
A vehicle which is allowed to become
covered more or less with soil and
sand is worn out in half the time which
a clean one may continue to be used.
When it is remembered that the wheel
vehicles of the country at large have
cost the owners in the aggregate more
than two hundred million dollars, the
amount of money saved in preventing
needless wear and decay must be OBJ
vious.
II the horse is driven on q walk, or
about three miles an hour, the mud
will adhere to the rim of the wheels
and be carried up by them as they
revolve. Its weight will cause it to
drop on the spokes and hub, and
these, in a short time, will be. COW
cred with it in one adhering mass.
But drive a little faster, on a slow or
moderate trot, four and half or five
miles ar, hour, and then the mud which
is carried up on the rim of the wheels
will not drop. for the increased circular
motion now given to them will impart
enough centrifugal force to hold the
mud to the wheels. The rim is the only
part that will be muddy: the spokes
and hub will be clear. The writer has
successfully practised this course more
than fifty years. But if the horse is
driven six or seven miles an hour, this
increased velocity will send the mud
off. and all parts OF the vehicle will re-
ceive a copious plastering. At speed
of eight or nine miles. it will be shot as
high as the top of the cover. and the
driver will be liable to receive a liberal
share.-Country Gentleman.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS
SHELTER FOR MACHINES.


Why Every Well-Regulated Farm should
Have Tool House.
It is not to be wondered at that man.
ufacturers of agricultural machinery
get rich. The owner of farm machinery
would do vastly better to go in debt for
means with which to build q tool and
machine house than to get trusted for
new implements with which to work
his land and then leave them to natures
mercies. The indispensables in tool
house are tight roof and dry floor. For
the former it is doubtful if anything is
superior or in the long run cheaper
than shingles. For floor lumber will
do, but a well-drained. slightly raised
floor made of coal ashes, engine Gin
ders, clay or brick is preferable, being
more durable and stronger. But floor
of this kind positively must be we'll
drained or the machines will be injured
by dampness from below. Where
site can be secured next the road and
sloping from it, the sills laid on low
walls can be filled level with the floor
ing. This will pack down hard and
give great satisfaction. On level land
it is better to raise the ground in front
Dodge City times., 1891-10-09

of the tool house to the height of the
floor than to use an incline, as it is
easier to roll the stock in and out. An
excellent building erected for this pur-
nose saw in Worcester county, Mass
It is built like the drawing. The little
doors enter shop feet wide across
one end. Rolling doors protect the re-
mainder of the front They are hung
so as to pass one another or the small
doors and the convenience is perfect
Wagons or machines out of order may
be taken bodily into the shop where
wrenches, etc, quickly put them to
rights wet days. The shed is 90 feet
wide and may be made of any desired
length. A rolling platform sxl2 feet
covers an aperture in the upper floor
through which sleighs, ra'zes and other
light things are raised by pulleys for
storage. A piece of scantling fastened
to the wall near the floor will prevent
mowers and wagons from marring it
with their hubs. Abundance of light
should be let in and the fowls kept out
the same as snow aud other destructive
agencies. Sage. in Farm and

array themselves against measure
