MISS BERKHEIMER

Fire broke out on "the tender" to
Lee Pros thres hing machine rig one
day this week, and only the hardest
kind OF work prevented the separator
and the threshed grain from burning
There was brisk wind and the fire
spread so rapidly that for little while
things looked pretty black for saving
anything; but only the tender rack
was burned.
About four O'Clock on Sunday this
neighborhood was startled, and filled

shooting OF Bert Booths arm in SO

Drs. Kenney OF Bruce and Hess OF Es-
terline were called, and though they
did everything that was possible to do
under such circumstances, they de-
cided that it was best to send him
where he could be more constantly
treated. This awful affair is simply
another OF the all too frequent acct
dents. They were driving through a
field on their way to see a party in re-
gard to some job Of work, and had ia
ken the gun along and it laid between
them, resting against the seat, when a
jar or jolt discharged the gun, shoot.
| Booths arm to a mass OF shredded
flesh and tearing the elbow cap away,
and sending some few shot into Char

nothing serious. Mr.. Booth is but a
young man, and the neighbors and
friends here wish most sincerely that
his arm may not be as badly hurt as
| is feared.

Talk With n Pig Raiser.

'How old are these pigs, Mr.. Farm
err"
six months with the first of April,
and if you will notice, they are ready
for the butcher at any time. They will
dress well and make the finest quality
OF meat, just such as now l. so largely
in demand"
Yes, l see, and how do you manage
to keep them growing and fattening
at such a rate at the same time, Mr..
Farmery'
Not much trouble arout that, if you
have breed of pigs that are quiet,
healthy and hearty, and that will grow
and take on fat at the same time, pro-
yided they are properly cared for.
1.-The MI. is separated on the farm.
and therefore of the best quality as
the main feed of the pigs. After the
first two or three months some kind
of grain feed is given along with the
milk, little at first and gradually in
creasing as they get older and can
make use of it. The last month or two
they should be fed all they will eat
up clean, but care should be exercised
in not overfeeding, as this will produce
bad results.
'These pigs you see here are very
hearty, and have always kept in a
thriving condition. They should not be
crowded. but have sufficient room al
the trough, SO that each may get his
share.'
How long do you keep sucklings
before disposing Of them" pursued the
visitor much interested.

The Farmers ADVANTAGE.

One of the speakers 1t the annual
meeting Of the Iowa State Board Of
Agriculture, in talking upon the sub
1ect of VIII. farme.j should breed
DRAFT horses, said that every farmer
who has rood draft mare. or pair
of them, should breed them to the best
draft stallion within h. reach for
good draft colts are certain to be as
profitable as any stock he can raise on
the farm. The farmer who works his
mares stands better chance TO raise
n good colt each year than the man
who breeds on a large scale and has
no work for his mares 10 do. The
farm work is beneficial 10 the mare.
and with proper care is not hurtful
10 the foal. If the farmers would 90
a little heavier into the breeding of
draft horses so that our draft mares
would be distributed over the country,
in many hands, earning their keep by
daily work, there would be n large in
crease in the foals produced which
would add greatly to he profit OF the
farmer and the COUNT. at large.

Above all things machinery should
be kept well oiled. This should be
done with both old and new machinery,
but especially TO the new, for there is
more or less paint on the different
parts, and if it is not kept well sup
piled with oil it will become heated,
and after this happeLs once or twice
you cannot supply it with enough oil
to keep it from running hard. In order
TO prevent this | always stop once
about every hour TO oil and to exam
inc every part TO see that il is not
working loose, and TO see that every
part is working satisfactorily. "A
stitch in time saves nine'
Another important item about new
implements is TO be sure that they are
properly put together before they are
put to work. Because, il they are run
hard and long with several parts in a
strain, these parts will soon become
worn out, and you will, as you might
say, commence repairing your new ma
chine.
You should take care and not run
your machine over rough ground. Care
should also be taken TO prevent it
from dropping into bitches. A ditch
cannot be crossed without wrenching a
part of the, machine in some way.
Therefore, don't run it over uneven
surfaces, especially over hard, rough
pixies. For example, say that you neigh
Dor should have new binder, and he
should harvest his own crop with it,
and while he was cutting a friend
should come to him and ask him 10
cut his grain. SO your neighbor would
go. Probably he would not take time
to truck it-just run it for one or two
miles over the hard pike as he came out
of his own field. We see plainly that
by cutting for three or four of his
friends each year in few years his
binder would be worn out, simply by
running over the rough roads.
Shelter is one among the greatest
things that will add 10 the life Of an
implement. 1 know from my own ex-
perience, and from observing Others
that afford good shelter for their tools,
that they are always in good running
order, and last from two to four times
as long as those that are allowed to
stand out during harvest. I think the
ideal farmer is that one who sees that
all his machinery is in the dry, and
that all is prepared for the next sea.
sons work before being put away.
would rather my tools would do
one or more days work than to stand
out in one heavy rainstorm. In one
way it is just as important for us to
shelter our implements as it is oul
horses, because the better care we take
of them the more work they will dc
for us.-H. c. j., in the Indiana Far
mer.
