THE ART OF GRINDING.
How to Put an Edge on Moving Ma
chine Knives and Other Bevei-
Edged Tools.

There is propriety in all things, and
the grinding of moving machine
knives is not to be excepted. Most
farmers, however, hold the knives out
at arms length and grind them on the
top of the, stone, similar to the way
that the scythe is ground, thus not
only making the process slow and la
borious one, but producing very poor
edge indeed when compared with that
which is obtainable by the method
shown herewith in the illustration.
In order to achieve the purpose at
issue one should have a good stone
a stone so hung that it viii run true.
It is preferable to have it mounted
upon common friction wheel bearings.
Why? Because these raise the center
of it just high enough from the frame
to admit of the inch-board rest on
each end and make it about right for
grinding the moving machine knife
when the back of the knife section is
held in position against this rest.
Thus constructed, hold the knife Sec
ton as described, but with the point
pitching little toward the stone, and

HE GOT EVEN
His Customer Beat Him at the Start,
but He Got Back at Him
in Good shape.

There is an old retired merchant IN De-
troit who delights IN recalling his expert
ences when an active man running a gsn-
eral store in one of the northern citiei of
the lower peninsula.
Il used to reap a harvest when the men
were coming out of the woods" be re-
lates. They were not up In styles, and
about any old thing would suit them pro-
vided the color was right and the lit even
passable. But there were trieksters among
them and had to have my wits about
me in order TO keep even with them.
How much is this hat? asked strap
ping six-footer who arrived from camp
one day with pocket full OF money.
Two fifty [ replied.
'Then he informed me that he always
had the crowns of his hats punched full
of holes in order to keep his head cool, and
his hair from coming out. | soon had this
attended to, and then he asked what the
hat was worth. Two fifty, | responded,
IN surprise, but he laughed at me for asking
such price for damaged goods. He had me
and got his hat for a dollar while the jolly
crowd with him had laugh at my expense.
He wanted to look at some 'hddles, and
after pricing one at $40 concluded to take it.
Where's the bow he asked, as | was
doing up the package.
You only bought the fiddle laughed.
The others saw the point and laughed, too.
The giant tried to bluff me, but / kept good
humored and got even on the hat by charg-
ing him Sl.50 for the bow. | not only got
even, but the others were so pleased with
my Yankee trick that they spent plenty

Mary Wasa MineraIoSist.

A teacher in one of the local schools was
instructing class of small children in min
eralogy the other day, endeavoring to make
clear to their young minds what a mineral
really is. Standing before them, she began
in her clear voice: "A mineral is an inor
ganic, homogeneous substance of definite,
or approximately definite, chemical compo-
sition found IN nature. Do you understand
me? Come now, you have all seen minerals.
And your mothers and fathers have told
you the names of them, haven't they? Of
course, they have. Now, can any one of
you tell me the names of three minerals ?"
There was no response, and she continued:
Have not some of you been out and seen
minerals on exhibition One little girl
raised her hand II thought So Mary will
rame three minerals" Mary arose, and,
putting her hands behind her, lisped:

HOW TO MOUNT A GRINDsToNE.

at such an angle to the face of it as
will result in producing the requisite
cutting bevel-a position easily ascer-
tanned by the operator after few
trials. Grasp the section bar with
one hand and with the other press the
knife against the stone. Then let the
stone revolve toward the knife, and
when that is ground, which will be sur
prisingly soon, try another, and so on
consecutiveIy until all the knives on
one side have been served alike, where
upon change the other side onto the
other side of the stone "a thing neces-
STATED by the crank being in the way
of the end of the section bari, and in
a very short time you will have all the
knives in the most excellent condition.
1t is advisable, however, to grind few
of the end knives occasionally on that
side of the stone next to the crank,
for this, together with the scythe and
other grinding that there may be, will
tend to keep the surface of the stone
worn off evenly, which is of the utmost
Importance.
When once person has acquired the
art of grinding bevel-edged tools in
this manner it will afford him a world
of pleasure, in that he can thus grind
chisels and all such tools to perfection,
his greatest care being to give those
that do not reach across the face of
the stone a sidewise motion, so as to
wear the stone off evenly. Indeed, it
will encourage much the sharpening
of tools, and this is just what ought to
be desired, for nothing is more out of
place than ones endeavoring to use
advantageously dull implement of
any kind.-Frederick o. Sibley, in N
Y. Tribune

AGRICULTURAL FAIRS.
Too Many of Them Have Degenerated
Into a Meeting Place for
Sports and Fakirs.

Too many of the fairs are degenerat-
ing. The evidences of this are plenti-
full and striking. True, here and there
a local fair shows improvement, and
state fairs are generally progressive;
but the most of the local fairs are in
a decline. Members of our office staff
have visited many fairs this season.
and in majority of instances have
found stock pens and agricultural
halls nearly empty and the attendance
of farmers and their families material
ly decreased. As we aim at truthful
ness in our reports, the kindest thing
we could do in many cases was to say
nothing whatever in the paper about
fairs of this class.
The fact is that most of the fairs
have practically ceased to be agricul-
tural and cater wholly to the tastes
of the sporting community. In too
many instances fair" has become syn
onymous with the same word with
''k' inserted in the middle, and the
farmer is compelled to stand around
with his interests under his arm and
watch the honors and profits of the
occasion being divided between the
jockey and the fellow with the game
of chance.
We have a few fairs in mind which
have been striking exceptions in the
matter of success this season. but
these have every one been clean. The
fair which would be long-liyed and
continuously successful must be de-
cent in tone and decidedly agricultural
in character. The handwriting is on
the wall for every other kind.-Na-
tional Stockman.

There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed TO be incurable For great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.

Washington, April 23.-Chairman
Dingley, OF the WAYS and means COM
mittee, this afternoon introduced in the
house the war revenue measure which
the republican members of the ways
and means committee have prepared
1t is the intention Of Chairman Dingley
to press the bill on Monday, and he
hopes to have it through the house be-
fore adjournment Tuesday. 1t is prob
able that this program will meet with
opposition fro II democrats who have
not been consulted in its preparation
aud who will not have an opportunity
TO see it until it is presented,to. the full
committee on Monday morning at 10
o'clock.
They are inclined to think that they
have been most unfairly treated. As it
is distinctly war measure in which
they are expected to acquicscc without
opposition, they believe they should have
been consulted in its preparation. lhe
Democrats have already decided TO oiler
an income tax amendment

measure a, framed viii realize between

uted as follows: Fermented liquors,
