FARM iMPLEME NTS.
A Large Investment That Should Be
Well Looked After.

If you have not gathered up, clean
ed and properly housed your farm
ing implements, and protected them
from rust and weather, do so at once,
before the SHOWS and rains come on.
The total amount of the farmers In
vestment in machinery is necessarily
large, and it is the part of prudence
for him to take good care OF 1t. IN
a machine shop or factory, every piece
of machinery is in use day after day.
The farmer is obliged to buy and
keep in repair dozen machines
which he has use for only few days
out of the year. He runs his moving
machine perhaps two weeks altogeth-
er; his binder half that time, and
his hay tedder perhaps not three days
all told. The wheat and corn drills
come in for only few days use, and
the potato planter and digger for no
longer period. During the remainder
of the year it is necessary to care for
and properly house these machines in
order to keep them in good condition.
A few years ago an ingenious yam
kee invented what is called uni
versal Tool" consisting of a hollow
handle with a screw top and holding
a chisel, screw-driver gimlet, tack
puller and many other small handy
tools which may be clamped in the
small end of the handle as needed.
Perhaps, says the Farm Journal, an
equally ingenious person will some
day invent a universal machine,
which, by an exchange of parts and
attachments, may serve the combined
purposes which now make necessary
many implements. Such an inven
ton would prove great benefaction
to agriculture.

Artificial Milk,

Artificial milk is sometimes heard OF
but seldom seen. In Europe such milks
are being sold in some localities in a
small way. These contain no real milk
ingredients. An examination of one
kind sold in Germany showed 1t to be
mixture of syrup and sesame oil
emulsified with some proteid sub
stance. This was to be diluted with
nine parts of water before being used.
The chief demand for such artificial
milk is said to be in bakeries. For
cooking purposes it is possible that
some Of these substitutes might prove
useful, but why call them artificial
milk?
