Take Care of Your Tools.

A farmer should do all the work pos
sible by horse power. To make horse
strength available he must have tools,
and to get the most from tools they
must be well taken care of. Tools cost
much money. If we'll made they are
durable, but the care they have makes
a vast difference with their durability.
And good care means several things.
1t means first, that you watch for loose
bolts, for little things that may be get
ting out of fix, and that as soon as any
thing begins to 60 wrong, you set it
right. Such things always get worse
and worse by neglect. You can save
dollars and dollars by looking sharp
after the beginnings of evil. When
you first notice anything loose is the
time to tighten it. Of course if you
long to help support the blacksmith, you
can let your tools go to ruin and then
pay big lot for repairs or extras. But
it will be money in your pocket to look
sharp after your farm tools. keep
the nuts tight and the bearings we'll
OILED" " is good motto to hang up in
your barn. Don't spare the oil. Have
plenty of oilers and keep them filed.
Have wrenches, extra bolts, nuts and
rivets always on hand.
Then have tool shed. In lumber
state like Vermont, it is shame for a
farmer to leave his farm machinery out
in the sun and rain. Keep all these
things, including wagons, under cover.
You will be far more apt to do this il
you have good tool shed. 1t should
be wide enough to hold the longest
wagon-should have doors to make the
tools safe from rain or snow. Better
make it so you can drive right through
from side to side. Put up such build
ing and you will be repaid many fold in
few years. You ought TO be able to
wake up in the night when it rains and
think, All my tools are under cover"

uncomfortable about it. If you have
old tools, keep them under cover, for
they may be of use some time. If they
are too poor 10 use, make them into
fire wood, but don't let them stand
around littering up your grounds.
Paint helps wonderfully in preserving
tools. Keep all wood parts well COW
cred with good paint. Also paint iron
which does not wear on the ground.
All surfaces which wear bright should
be cleaned from mud every time you
stop using them. A rusty cultivator
steel is poor tool to use. So is rusty
pillow. When put away all bright sur
faces should be covered with some oil
or grease which will keep them from
rusting. Treat all your tools so they
will keep their new look as long as pos

De Laval Alpha Baby" Cream Separators
are more superior to initiating machines than
such other cream separators are to gravity
Dreaming processes. In fact experienced users
of different separators regard such initiating
machines as of little if any advantage over
gravity Dreaming. A good illustration of this
is given in the following letter from the South
Carolina Experiment Station, which is indi-
rectly most convincing tribute to the over
whelming suderiority of the De Laval Machines.

NEW YORK, August 1S.-High-water
mark for the season was reached in the

Prices advanced 41-4 TO cents for the
day, and sales reached the big total of
1G.3l5.OOO bushels. Excitement prevailed
in the market from start to finish, but
particularly in the last hour when the
advances became so rapid that frequently
the fluctuations were marked by IA frac-
tions, instead Of Is. as ordinarily seen.
a lot of operators who had been fighting
the advance all day were among the
foremost buyers in the afternoon The
phenomenal movement upward. and the
scarcity of wheat for sale, fairly stag

which, from d discount of . 3-S on Sep

at the close The total range on Sep
TENDER was from 81 ii to "a IA cents.
The advance to-day began with a sem
sational rise in Liverpool quotations this
