In rummaging among old papers a
Lynn gentleman has discovered the
complete pattern Of the American
scythe, which was invented two and a
half centuries ago by Joseph Jencks,
an ironworker of Saugus. Mass. The
ton Record is referred to in Lewis and
Newhall's History of Lynn"
This scythe took the place Of the
English "bushwhacker' scythe, made
Of a piece of thin steel about eighteen
inches long and three inches wide
Jencks more than doubled the length
of the scythe, reduced its width to one
and one-half inches, and stiffened it
by welding a square bar on the back.
The patent was, by enactment of the
Massachusetts, General Court, as fol-
lows:
May %, 1865. lit is ordered that
Joseph Jencks, senr., and his assigns,
only, shall haue liberte granted to
them to make that engine the said
Jencks hath proposed to this Court
for the more speedy cutting Of grasse,
for seven yeares, and that no inhab-
liant or other person within this juris-
diction during that time shall make or
vse any of that kind of engine with
out license first obtained from the said
Joseph Jencks. on the poenalty OF five
pounds for eury such engine so made
or vsed, TO be recovered at any Court
in this Jurisdiction by the said Joseph

Care Of Work Horses.

Food and care Of work horses In
warm weather is subject that is wor-
thy of extensive discussion. Ordinar-
lily farm horses will do better if turn
ed to grass at night than if kept on
dry feed. 1t is much better for their
feet, and the change from dry to green
food is beneficial in every way. One
of the most common mistakes made is
that of overlooking, making two horses
do the work of three. This in the long
run is not economy. The majority of
teamsters injure their horses by feed
ing too much hay, while in the case of
road animals mistakes are often made
by driving too hard when starting out
on a journey. One should start off at
slow jog, gradually increasing the
speed, if this is necessary, after a mile
or two has been covered. On the road
or in the field. it is usually well to
lessen the pace somewhat just before
unhitching, as the animal will then
get much more good from the food con-
sumed. Horses should be watered as
frequently as possible, and 1t is much
better if they are made to take the
bulk of their drink before meals rather
than after. During warm weather the
horses will do much more work If they
are given water some time during the
middle of the forenoon and afternoon.

Grass for Reseeding.

In reseeding meadows and pastures
particularly the latter, orchard grass
has a value that is not appreciated
While there may be some question as
to its feeding value as compared to
timothy, in reseeding one does not ex-
pect to obtain prime hay, the main OBJ
ject being to make the meadow longer
lived. Orchard grass will stand hot
and dry weather splendidly, seeming
~ doing it's best when other grasses
have burned out, growing and filing
the spaces left in good shape Horses
like orchard grass fed just after cut
ting and do well on it, which is not
the case with other grasses, as d rule.
While seed may be sewn alone at the
rate of three bushels per acre, and will
make good pasture, as a rule it is sown
with clover and other seeds, using one
half to one bushel Of the orchard grass.
The writer has experimental with this
grass for several years In connection
with clover for reseeding pastures and
has found it by far the cheapest seed
ing and the best results on light and
rather sandy soil. 1t is well worth test
ing if you are not familiar with 1t.

Money in Railroading.

A New York boulevard car was GO
ing north one day recently when, with
a sudden Jar. the current was thrown
of and the passengers were bumped
rudely together. The car came to a
standstill. The motorman. says the
New York Times, threw open the front
door and ran back to the conductor
on the rear platform.
They exchanged a few words; then
both ran through the car to the front
platform. Every passenger sat mute
with surprise Suddenly the car start
ed, and then backed Then 1t started
again, and once more backed. Then
it stopped. on jumped motorman and
conductor. and as the astonished pas
sengers looked out of the windows
they saw the two men down on their
hands and knees. trying TO crawl an
der the car. Presently, with an ex-
clamation of delight, the motorman.
covered with mud and CRIME, slowly
emerged. Entering the car and hold
ing up for inspection a ten-doIlar bill.
he said:
Excuse me, passengers. for Earring
you and keeping you waiting; but I
came near running over this ten-dollar
bill. and l hated TO do 1t and leave il
for the motorman on the car behind
