In the last week in December
the farm home Of Louis thinner,
in Norway township, was compile
tely destroyed by fire. All the
members of the family were absent
at the time and nothing was saved
of the contents of the building,
consisting Of the furniture and
household goods, 26 sacks Of -four
and a whole years supply Of other
provisions, a daughters wedding
trousseau and the clothing Of the
other members of the family.
There was no insurance. Fortu-
nately Mr.. thinner had just COM
pleted a new granary, and by re-
modelling this structure it is being
made to serve as a temporary
home. In the spring a handsome
residence 32x32, two stories will be
erected on the site of the one de-
stroyed. MIR. thinner is one of
Ramsey county's most prosperous
farmers. He has Is head of horses
and Y head of cattle, all of which

brighter luster and to resolve a
nobler purpose. It is a spirit
born in every heart that can know
it's inspiration without regard to
creed or race or station. True tc

Of Materials Otherwise virtual
- without value.

1t is n fact which cannot be denied
that farm implements will last much
longer II frequently painted and If they
are protected from wet weather and the
scalding sun as much ms possible. The
machinery will not only last much long
err, but. as a rule. will do better work and
will require less repairing at busy
times. for if a machine is allowed 10
Iiand out in all kinds Of weather there
is more or less varying, shrinking and
getting Out Of shape, causing bolts TO
more readily become rusty or drawn.
which results in a great deal Of break
age and loss, besides failing TO do the
work as properly as ii would be done il
the machine was kept IN good order.
All implements on the farm. from the
hoe and corn knife 10 the harvester or
header, may be housed and at very little
expense. Most eastern farmers in the
older settled communities. have large
barns where they have more floor room
than is necessary after the hay and fod-
der are stored away, and this space may
be utilized for plows, harrows, seeders
and drills. In the west, where barns are
scarce, and smaller. il is not very ex-
pensive to build Sarge straw shed
which viii hold all the implements and
machinery used on the farm. A shed OF
this kind may be made 10y setting three
or four rows Of two by six posts and /
placing timbers Of the same size at the |
top for plates. Next cover over with |
cheap lumber and brush, together with |
a sufficient amount of straw to prevent
my leakage. Build up a wall of straw
at the sides, six or eight feet thick. ex-
cept at the east side, which should be
eft open for the purpose Of driving in.
Port hay may be used in the building
and will make it more durable. A shed
oi this kind is quite inexpensive and
1t the same time will adequately protect
he implements from rain. snow and
nm. Notwithstanding the ease with
which good shelter may be obtained.
here are far too many costly machines
Flowed to go 10 wreck for want of
proper care. This is one Of the leaks
