While ago my neighbor Penn Started bustin' up hem Went to yank her off the nest. Hen, though, made a peck and jest Grabbed his thumb nail good and stout Liked to yank the darn thing out. Pen, he twitched away and then Tried again to grab the hen, But, by ginger, she had spunk, Cause she took and nipped a chunk Big's bean right out his palm; ! Swallowed it, and cool and calm ! listed up and yelled "Cah-dah!" ! Sounded like she said.

How to Use the Road Drag.

During this time of the year our roads are nearly always very rough, which makes travelling over them dis agreeable. Very little work, at slight expense, with the road drag will make a wonderful improvement. There IS no other tool better adapted to the improvement of earth roads, so far as the actual work done, cost, ease of operation, etc, are concerned, as the drag
 The ordinary reversible blade grader must be used to give the road-bed it's proper shape; after this, it is best maintained by using the drag after each wet period
 A good two-horse drag may be made as follows. Use either a split log or a 2x12x16 oak plank sawed in two. If made of a log, secure one from ten to twelve inches in diameter and about eight feet long; split or saw this into as nearly equal halves as possible. These halves are set on edge with the flat side to the front, thirty inches apart, and are fastened together with three strong pins wedged in The plank drag is similarly constructed. The front piece should stand about foot farther to the right than the back one so when the drag is pulled at an angle of forty-five degrees, it does not interfere with the back piece following in it's track. The right One- half of the front piece should be shod with a piece of steel, to give it cut ting edge and prevent it from wearing. The drag is hitched so as to pull at an angle of about forty-five degrees. which causes it to move small amount of dirt from the side of the road to the center, thus keeping the crown we'll rounded.
 The best time to use the drag Is after each wet spell, just as the sur face is beginning to dry and is still wet enough to smear.
 The mud formed on the road after a rain represents the dust, in part, which has been made by constant tramping and wear on the road sur face. When moistened this dust forms a paste similar to cement. By the use of the drag as the surface begins to dry, this dust paste" is crudely troweled or smeared over the surface The action of the wind, sunshine, and travel has a tendency to dry, harden and beat down this mud covering un' til it becomes a sort of roof which turns the water very readily Travel then begins to work up more dust; this is again formed into a "dust paste" by the next rain. Another dragging spreads another coat over the first and the surface becomes hard CT, smoother and more nearly water proof than before
 Every time the mud is spread over the surface and is beaten down and dried, the road is improved One drag ging at time is usually sufficient H. M. Bainer, Prof. of Mechanics, Colorado Agricultural College.

Utilizing a Broken Hoe.

Don't throw away the hoe with a broken handle even if there are only two feet of the handle left. Instead take it to the blacksmith shop and have the hoe strengthened out on a line with the handle. It would not be amiss also to have the hoe sharpened. You will find this useful in many ways around the chicken house or in the garden for digging weeds or lift ing plants for repotting.
