why the Months Are So Named.

The word month" Is descended

year. "February' is from the Latin
word "Fcbruarius," and means the
month Of expiration, because the Ro
man festival of publication occurerd
in February. March" is from Mars,
the god Of war and was the first

A farmer on the Pacific slope sends
TO the Farmers Tribune a plan for maxi

two by two-inch strips Of lumber six

should be placed as close to the wheel
as possible; the one in front of the
wheel may be eight inches long and the

OF course, will depend upon the width de-
