surprising how easy a little oil on
the bearings will make the stone run,
yet some of my neighbors never
think to oil theirs. A few drops OF
kerosene will cut the gum II it runs
hard and then some oil or axle grease
will make 1t go easy.
1t is hard to stand on one foot and

Job can be made easy, suggests a

and extending 1t two feet, on which
place a seat as shown in the cut.
With a smooth and even face the
grindstone works nicely, but when 1t
becomes uneven 1t is hard work to do
good job Of grinding. Such stone
needs to be cut down and toned UP.
This can be done by grinding against
the end of piece of pipe, having the
stone dry. There is Nothing moro
exasperating than to try to work with
poor grindstone, but with a good
one It is pleasure to keep the tools

HELPS THE ROADS.
Experience Of the Specialist at Ne
braska Experiment Station.

The following from recent issue
of the Nebraska Farmer gives their
experience with the road drag on the
roads near the Nebraska experiment
station:
"a good proof Of road dragging with
split log drags was shown last winter
during the long spell of deep muddy
roads. The roads next to the farm
have been dragged for the last four
or five years, and comparing them
with others It makes a very great con-
trast. While some of the other roads
are hardly dry, and a good many are
rough and rutty the dragged roads
have long become smooth and are as
hard as brick. Even during very
muddy weather the depth of mud on
the dragged roads was slight com
pared with that Of the undragged
roads. When a person drives over a
road OF this Kind when muddy 1t is
like driving on pavement with but one
to two inches of mud while the un-
worked roads sink to depth of nine
inches in places and also very heavy
pulling, having no solid ground under
the mud. A farmer who believes 1t
does not pay to drag roads is badly
mistaken. In eastern Nebraska it is
Just beginning to become a practice.
And the bnes to introduce 1t there
were the students of the school OF
agriculture"
