SPRAY OF THE RAPIDS.

An expert gives the following advice
to farmers about the care Of theil
binders: Every farmer should take
his binder apart in the fall and inspect
every wearing part and clean the
boxes. When box is worn out il
should be replaced by a new one
Every piece Of machinery upon which
there is any wear should be giver
attention, and the whole should then
be placed away out of the weather anC
kept bright and clean A couple OF
weeks before harvest begins the
machine should be set up and squared,
using the rod that runs over the bull
wheel between the elevator boards as
guage. Every bolt and rod should be
tested and frightened. Omatter how
old the machine may be. if it is
squared and the worn parts replaced
it can be made to give several years
service after it would otherwise have
been thrown aside and a new binder
purchased.
