FARMING Is :
MATERIALIZED AT FAIR


Under one tent is shown lever
shifting mower. This is operated bs
gasoline motor. and the farmer who
has for years been compelled to get
out OF his seat TO lift the blade after
he had cut his crop reached a spot
where he did not wish to cut. mar
yelled that someone did not think OF
this trouble and labor saver long be-
fore. The cut-away disk harrow. with
its score or more deep rotches in the
wheels To make them go the deeper
and do their work the more thorough
ly. is also a feature. These wheels
are made flexible so as tn adjust
themselves to the condition Of the
soil. and there are therefore no hats
in the narrowing.
newly patented fertilizer spreader
Is also attracting a great deal of at
tention. BY attaching a bel; To the
hub Of a rear wheel of the spreader,
the farmer makes another wheel re-
veive where a manyhladed cylinder
catches. il and distributes it economi-
cally and evenly over the entire field
Gives Double Service
The T. bar roller and pulverizer is
absolutely new. This Is a long ma
chine closely resembling a roller. ex-
cept that 1t is hollow. 1t Is made OF
heavy T-bars OF iron. giving 1t sur
ficient weight to crush the heaviest
and most solid clods, and at the same
time rolling the field smooth and level.
An invention which. caught the eye
of all the farmers Thursday was a
simple wooden attachment to motor
and wind propelled pump. These
three sticks. which must go up when
the pump rises. have a fourth stick
nailed to them. This fourth stick

liar cerrugations on the handle of a

has To do to get butter is to put
the cream in the churn. attach the
handle to the pump fixture and let

her.
Under the same tent with this in
vention is an attractive ten-foot high
waterfall made by windmill. the
idea being to furnish swiftly rupping
water in any desired quantity s9ust
outside the kitchen dicor.
Nearby is sawmill In complete
operation, heavy pine logs In the
rough being sawed up into finely
dressed lumber and distributed as
canes. Adjoining the sawmill is the
exhibit of an electric machinery
company. which is specializing on a
small complete plant with which a
farmer may provide light, heat and
machinery power on his farm. and at
the same time save his wife the trou-
Bile Of washing clothes by hand.
Tho exhibtts are all fascinating to
watch In operation. and the farmers
remained In this section q great deal
OF their time. Many purchases were
made by the farmers. who expressed
the opinion that the limit in improve.
