the district would lose the making
of an excellent judge, but the coun-

Art by the Ton.

An American city once asked Mac
Monnies, tie sculptor. to enter a design
for army and navy groups for a SOL
diers' and sailors monument. He de-
clined TO compete. Then the commits
sion was rendered to him outright. He
submitted sketches of his idea for the
groups. The committee in charge OF
the wrote him, asking
How many tons of granite do you in
tend to use in the base?' His reply
vas IF o are in the business OF
buying granite you may use as much
as you want. one ton or 100000 tons
I am an artist. and 1 never yet heard
of art being bought by the pound
The question was dropped until tho
contract for the commission was
drawn. When Mr.. MacMonnies re
ceived it he discovered in it a clause
providing that in case the bronzcs were
ever thrown down from their base, by
any cause whatever, and any person
or property should be injured. he and
his heirs forever should be liable for
the damage sustained. He returned
the contract without comment, IN
signed. When the committee wrote
him, asking the reason. his brief reply
was, "Your lawyers are too sharp

Good Farm Machinery.

The American farmer Is leading the
world today because he has a vast
domain Of rich soil and because con
ditions have forced him to adopt ma.
chimes to help him in mis- work. In
some parts of the world agriculture is
still dependent On hand labor, and the
returns from the land are small. The
farm laborer is poorly paid because he
is bile TO produce little. After all, il
Is what a nan produces that counts
ID prices gradually come to that
IS. Had the American farmer re
fus i to adopt new machines, as have
the farmers of some other lands, We
would still be a poor nation, and the
farmer would be hardly more than the
peasant he is In other lands.
But the American farmer has had
the genius to try every new thing. He
has been so forward that the conf
dence man has found him an easy be
ing to fleece; but 1t is better to be
feeced once In a while than to make
no progress at all. Every new ma
chine that appears on the market
should be thoroughly investigated be
fore purchase or rejection. Happily
at this time we have sixty experiment.
stations, at each one of which are mer
that understand farm machinery. Al
some of these stations are large col
lections of farm machinery, and in
several instances agricultural schools
nave courses including the study OF
farm machinery. Any farmer who
wants information concerning a new
or an old machine ear get it by writ
ing to the experiment station of his
State. The experimenters are a little
backward about coAdemning or ap
proving machines, because they dc
not care to a V their reports used as
advertisements, but the inquirer who
is playing fair can usually find out
what he wants to know about the quail
ity of a machine. This is especially
true of machines that have little or nc
merit.
The American Farmer has made
progress by this readiness to use farm
machinery, and he will make further
progress in the same way. Good farm
machinery is more abundant TO-DAY
tha ever before, and we believe that
there are fewer poor machines on the
market than ever before. This is n
cause for congratulation on the part

curing Barbed wire Cuts.

Here is some information from a
correspondent of Epitomist that will
prove useful on a vast number of
farms:
Experience has proven to me that
about the best thing to use on barbed
wire cuts is crude carbolic acid. 1t
keeps out proud flesh and flies will
not bother the wound. My brother
had a fine young horse severely cut on
the front leg by the wire. | wrapped
II with cotton muslin and saturated
the muslin with crude carbolic acid.
1t was only a short while until the
wound was healed. Next to car6oIic
acid, I like air-slaked lime for treat
msnt Of wire cuts. Sprinkle the limo
on the wound once or twice a day. II
acts e similar to the carbolic acid,
but does not heal as quickly.

Good Way to catch Hawks.

A Minnesota farmer, who has been
successful in catching hawks, says:
To trap hawks, owls and crows that
bother your chicken coops, get a pole
of 2x4, IA or IL feet long. At one end
Of this pole make a notch In which to
place a small steel trap, the trap to be
held in place by means Of a few tacks
or small nails. Fasten the chain good
and solid about a foot from the END.
Dig a hole for the other end Of the
post in some open place about FIVE rods
from your coops or where these pests
are more likely to perch 20 watch for
your chickens. Generally when they
get caught, they jerk the trap out of
it's position and then hang until you
relieve then- Try it and report re-
turns.
