KEEPING GRINDsToNE TRUE.
In the Grinding Of Tools Do Not Let
Stone Get Grooved.

The average grindstone on the farm
sees pretty tough times. The softer
the stone, the harder usage it receives.
Its lot is almost as hard as that of
the boy on the farm" who has to
turn it by the hour. The grinding sur
face OF the stone is more apt to be
concave than it is to have an even
face, or slightly beveled surface.
The concave condition comes from
grinding axes. scythes. machine
knives, etc, with their edges length
wise of the stone instead of across it.
This can not be helped in grinding
some tools. But, suggests Prairie
Farmer, when the stone does assume
this shape making it impossible to
grind chisel or any flat-edged tool
deccntly, it is a good time to get a
spade or twO--spades are usually dull
and hold them on the stone until
sharpened, when the Irregularities in
the surface of the stone will have dis
appeared.
A grindstone by the way, should
never be left exposed to the sun. The
weight of the handle will always cause
one portion of the stone to remain
uppermost and this from exposure
will reach a different degree of hard
ness from the underside. so that after
a while the stone will be ground out
of Il circle. If the stone has to stand
in the open, a flat box can easily be
obtained to serve as cover.

shows my plan of arrangement. BY
a very simple device of my own con-
trivance l heat all the water for use
about the creamery with this engine.
1t is possible for this same little en-
CINE, mounted on light trucks and
fitted up with the traction wheel of an
old discarded grain or corn harvester,
to do the greater part of the farm
trucking. There is no end to the lit
tie things the gas engine will do. 1T
will turn the washing machine, the
sewing machine, the sausage grinder.
The durability of the gas engine l be-
lieve to be far in excess of the steam
power, as with good care and proper
fabrication there is practically little
wear on them. In fact one of the
most satisfactory solutions of the
farm labor problem to-day is the in
stalling of modern farm machinery,
and the farmer who adopts modern
methods is alive to his own interests.
The gas engine, says the Rural New
Yorker, is one of the most indispens-
able of all modern farm machines.

HER CHOICE OF DEMISE.
Pathetic Thought of Little Girl Who
Had Lost Playmate.

Mary had for neighbor small play
mate, much-loved and attractive boy.
The little lad rushed across the street
one day, throwing back glance at his
mother. At that instant a trolley car
swept around the corner and the re-
sulting tragedy threw the town into
mourning. Each family wept as
though it's own son had been lost.
Mary was utterly disconsolate and,
little as she had previously known Of
death, realized in a childish way the
added horror of this one. In her con-
vulsive grief, and while her father and
mother sat with sobs in their threats
and tears overflowing. Mary straight
ened up and sobbed:
Mother, when die hope 1t will be

BRAIN POWER
Increased by Proper Feeding.

A lady writer who not only has done
good literary work, but reared a
family, found in Grape-Nuts the ideal
food for brain work and to develop
healthy children. She writes:--
Il am an enthusiastic proclaimer of
Grape-Nuts as a regular diet. l for.
merly had no appetite in the morning
and for years while nursing my four
children, had insufficient nourishment
for them.

eat cold chops, sausage, cookies, dough.
nuts or anything l happened to find.
Being a writer, at times my head felt
heavy and my brain asleep.
when l read of Grape Nuts I began
eating it every morning, also gave it
to the children, including, my 1N
months old baby, who soon grew as
fat as little pig, good natured and
contented.
within a week J. had plenty of
breast milk, and felt stronger within
two weeks. l wrote evenings and
feeling the need of sustained brain
power, began eating small saucer of
Grape-Nuts with milk instead of my
usual indgestible hot pudding, pie, or
cake for dessert at night.
"Grape-Nuts did wonders for me
and l learned to like it. did not mind
my housework or mothers cares, for
l felt strong and full of go I grew
plump, ner<es strong, and when I
wrote my brain was active and clear;
indeed, the dull head pain never re.

Chance for Conversion.

In the ante-bellum days. when An.

his first run for congress, bench
man OF his opponent met an old min.

along the road on his old horse and
hailed him with: "Who are you going

I believe" "Oh. but l don't see how
you can vote for him! Don't you know
he's a Universalist? He doesn't believe

GAS ENGINE ON FARM.
A Suggestion as to the Most Efficient
Arrangement.

There is practically no piece of farm
machinery that the gas engine will
