The hoe is better lubricator for the
brain than Kerosene oil at 12c for the
binder Don't 60 to the other extreme
and get something too "heavy"-hoe or
oil, either. One will make you ache
and the other the horses.
II won't take you long TO find out
what a hoe is good for, and as for oil,
you can rub drop of kerosene be-
tween your thumb and finger and see
how dry" it is. Then take drop of
machine oil and do the same, and the
longer you can rub without your fingers
sticking the better the oil. Of course,
oil won't take the slack out of worn
box or journal, but after we have re.
paired it the oil will do the rest.

a dry, squeaking sensation in the brain,
go get the hoe, spit on your hands, and
cut the weeds out of the corn or garden.
You will find it a great brain lubricant.
