HOMEMADE POST DRIVER.

should be fastened about the stump.
allowing a good length to the chain.
The chain should be a stout one, espe-
cially If large posts which are firmly
set are to be taken out. When stumps
or posts are to be removed, spring is
the best time to do the work, as the
ground is then moist and the post
comes out more easily. Sometimes
when boundaries are to lie moved,
fields changed in outline or new fences
erected a great many posts must be
removed in a very short time, and un-
less some mechanical device were
adopted for Fastening the work it
would take quite a long time.

perhaps the one here shown is the most
se%rviceable. 1t should be made Of an
old buggy axle or any other old piece
Of iron Of about that size and used as
shown. With this tool n man will
pull more posts in a day than with any
other tool the writer ever heard of,
and two men with two of the tools can
easily remove the largest telephone or
telegraph poles.
Posts may be driven with speed and
economy on many farms If well sharp

rough plank sled may be made.
The standards may be twelve or if
teen feet high. To them is bolted a
crossbar which supports the hoist for
the weight. For this a block of iron or
lead weighing not less than twenty-five
pounds must be obtained, and it must
have a staple or ring in it SO it may be
lifted. The post is placed where 1t is
to be driven and the weight lifted and
allowed to fall On it. A little practice
will enable one to drive posts in soil
that seems too hard. The rig is useful
also in putting down driven wells.
To drive a well an inch and a quarter
pipe is preferred. The lengths should
not be over six feet. The first pipe to
be driven must have a point of iron or
steel. Any blacksmith who is an expert
at welding can readily make a point

bore numerous quarter inch holes in it

a coupling must be screwed down tight
and fast on the thread that is to con-
meet it to its mate. 80 the thread may
not be injured; also on top Of this
coupling must always rest a block Of
lead or seasoned hickory to receive and
distribute the conclusion.
The pipe is driven the same as a
post, another length being attached as
fast as one is sunk in the ground. One
rule must never be forgotten-each
length of pipe must be threaded so long

An Unappreeiated Plant.

Chtves is a vegetable not widely
known in this country. 1t is native
along the northern borders of the
United States as well as in some parts
Of Europe. where 1t is popular. The
plant belongs to the onion family. and
its leaves are used for seasoning in
soups, salads, ETC., and are preferred
to onions by many persons because
they are much milder and more ten
der. Europeans use chives for season
ing scrambled eggs and similar dishes.
The culture Of chives is simple. The
plant will grow in any ordinary gar
den soil. 1t is usually propagated by
division of the roots, because 1t does
not seed readily. The roots or clumps
of roots may be purchased at moderate
prices. The clumps should be planted
in beds about nine inches apart in
rows which are two feet apart. The
planting may be done in either spring
or autumn. The chives may also be
planted in the border Of the vegetable
garden and makes an excellent perma-
nent border. AS a border plant the
clumps should be planted about six
inches apart. The leaves will grow
thickly and form a dense green mat.

Democratic Convention On.

O0WVSIdIIS SOusSultOu Vii
The big quadrennial gathering of the
Democratic clans is about to open in
the immense new convention hall at
Denver as this summary closes. In
many respects the situation is similar
to that which the Republicans expert
enced on the eve Of their national con-
vention at Chicago. Bryan appears to
be as much in control at Denver as was
Roosevelt at Chicago. Nearly all CORE
spondents on the scene say that Bry-
ans nomination is conceded, although
the conservative allies keep up a show
of fight. Under the lead of Judge Par
ker Of New York and other eastern
Democrats a strong memorial resolu-
ton to Grover Cleveland, commencing
policies opposed by Bryan, raised the
direct issue of platform principle at the
outset, but Bryan's friends expect to
pass a Cleveland resolution of their
own, and the platform is expected to
contain al injunction plank radical
enough to suit Gompers. Bryan is dis
posed to seek party harmony by offer
ing the second place on the ticket to an
eastern conservative. and Gray Of Della
ware was a favorite, but he issued a
statement saying that he had not con-
serted to stand for either the first or
second place.

There are many ways to build q
shock of wheat; but. like all operations.
there is q right way and Il wrong
way. In doing this work there should
be a system, and each shock should be
built in exactly the same way. When
the grain is fairly ripe set up two sets
Of two bundles each, all leaning to-
ward the center. Then set a bundle
at each end, two at each side and two
well broken and f1attened and put on
endways for caps. This makes a shock
Of a dozen bundles. a good size for
grain cut at the proper stage of ripen-
ing; also large enough to stand up
well and not so large but that two cap
bundles will cover it. If smaller
shocks are desired only n bundle
need be set at each side. If a larger
one, three bundles may be set on each
side.
Another common method is to set up
six bundles by twos and complete as
before. but / think the former method
makes a better braced shock. ! am
thoroughly convinced that cap bundles
will not hang on as well during heavy
winds when crossed.
Many people set their bundles two by
two in long shocks without caps. This
may do for low patches that are green
or full Of weeds. but is an unsafe prac-
tice to follow for all grain. If a period
of wet weather follows the shocking,
the heads are exposed, and many kcr,
nels will sprout and ven grow, vile
if well capped only the heads of lie
