Farming Tools.

Agricultural Editor:-I have a new
idea. 1t is to establish an experiment
station for the purpose of testing farm
ing tools. One thing is certain; and
that is, it will not do to rely upon the
recommendation of any ordinary mortal
in this respect. When David said " all
men are liars" he evidently referred
to the persons who &" blow" for farm
is to try for ourselves, and, by the
time we find out which are the prac-
teal tools, we have ruined ourselves in
buying what we do not want. Now l
would establish an experiment station
made up in the following manner:
First, they should be practical farmers.
Second, they should be men of remark
ably mild temper. Third, profanity
should be strictly forbidden. This la!-
ter rule could not be enforced, but
would act as a check. The need of
such a station is obvious. Some of our
best tools have defects which make
them device of Satan for exasperating
weak mortals. Bolts which should
have square shanks are made with
round ones, and so it takes two wrenches
to remove nut; and this, too, in bolts
that must be changed very often.
Gregory, who has generally a good
name, puffs certain machine to kill
potato bugs; thus, "all you have to do
is to turn the crank and go ahead"
Yes, all man would have to do, if
pitched into tt lake with a grindstone
about his neck, would be to" go ahead, !"
and be could do the one as we'll as the
other. The machine in question is on
the fan-mill plan, and the idea is good;
but for ease in carrying, give me the
old-fashioned mill, and done with it.
BY the way, if one is to use water in
killing bugs, after trying all sorts | have
found the knapsack tinholder the best
by far A boy can take two rows at a
time and follow the work for long
while. Anything which saves work in
handling potatoes nowadays is "a bless

saving in picking up potatoes: have
sixty crates, made as follows: Take

places in the boards for the hands and
use these for the end pieces OF the
crates. Now bushel of potatoes is

Thirteen Old Trees.
st. Johnsbury, Vt.

1t is an odd fact that thirteen trees
which Alexander Hamilton planted
near his country house, 1.-The Grange"
to symbolic the original states of the
Union, and which are still standing
near the old manor house on Convent
Avenue, between One Hundred and
Forty-second and One Hundred and
Foriy-thrd streets, New York, have
kept pace with the growth of the states
which they represent. For Instance,
New York state is represented by the
largest tree, standing in the center of
the group. Close to it stands the next
largest, representing the state of Penn
sylvania. Rhode Island is represented
by the smallest tree, which is a mere
baby by the side of the others, and the
crooked tree is called South Carolina.
1t has taken an abrupt turn and grown
perceptibly out of the grove; then it
turned again just as suddenly and grew
up straight. South Carolina was the
first state to secede from the Union.
Since peace has been restored, how
ever, she has been one of the most
thrifty and flourishing of the southern
states. The house is now used for
Sunday-school. 1t was Hamiton's resi-
dence at the time of his duel with
Aaron Burr in Weehawken in 1904.

Potatoes for Profit.

Agricultural Editor: Knowing that
you have had good deal of experience
IN raising crops, have taken the lib
erty to ask your opinion. Can young
man, with a small amount of money,
buy or hire piece of land, and plant
it all to potatoes, say, and if it is fair
year for potatoes, and he has no bad
luck, can he make more than day pay
for the summer If not, is there any
one or two crops that would pay better,
and how much could one man handle?
| was working at Newport at the time
you bought farm in Derby, on the
road to Derby Center, and noticed
piece in one of the papers saying that
you were going to pay for the farm in
two years from the proceeds of the said
farm. Did you do it? Hoping shall
not trouble you too much, shall be
very much obliged for your advice.

very nicely. | should begin by saving
that my sAp-holder in the sugar-house
stands higher than the evaporator, so
the sap will run from it into the pan.
The chimney is about eight by twenty

the evaporator. | had a cast-iron box

about four inches in depth; through

sap 10 the front sc ction. The sap fills

then comes hot into the evaporator,
which can now be kept boiling in every
section. My apparatus was made for

make crates, with spaces half an inch
between the lath. 1t is well to have
the top strips of something heavier
than lath, so as not to break when pill
ing one crate on the other. Such
crate holds a bushel, as it is seventeen
inches long inside and twelve by twelve,
making about 500 cubic inches. But
for myself do not mind the exact size,
only do not get them too large. Now
for the use. Take a load, say forty,
and drive along the rows and drop them
about as wanted. When filed, drive
along again and pick them up and tier
them up in the wagon. Being crates,
the dirt rattles out. Also the air circu-
Iates, and the potatoes dry as they will
not IN baskets or in cart. This per-
mlts much earlier picking up after being
dug. The crates are easily repaired.
They cost, aside from work, about five
cents. A man with basket of 20
tatoes on his back travelling across a
field to dump into a cart Is pictu-
rescue object; but laying aside art, give
me the crates. e. j. RANsLow.
