CURE THAT SORE THROAT

AN EXAMPLE IN DISCIPLINE
Joke Is Sometimes More Efectuai
Than Burst of Anger as Repri-
mand.

A reprimand which takes the form
of a Joke is sometimes more enectual
than a burst of anger. Such an exam
pIe was furnished by a Confederate
officer, and described by T. 0. Moore
in his Anecdotes of General Gle
burne" The southern army, march
ing across the mountains of Georgia,
had its supply trains cut off, and was
obliged to live upon the country.
Apples, chestnuts and persimmons
were plenty, but the army had strict
orders not to 6epredate upon private
property. One day / was trudging
along in the rear Of General Gran
bury's brigade, when saw, down the
road, General Cleburne sitting on the
top rail- of a fence, while below him
lay FIVE or six bushels of fine red ap-
pies. Near by stood number Of SOL
diers who looked as mean as men
could look.
General Granbury saluted General
C7aburne, who remarked:

GIRLS ARE TO RUN A MINE
Young Women Lease Shaft Near
Cripple Creek, Colo, and Will
Run 1t Themselves.

Cripple Creek, Colo-A mining
company composed of six girls, five
of whom live in Boston, Mass, has
been organized to lease the No.
shaft of the Lucky Gus mine on Bull
Hill, near here, and work will begin
soon.
The members are Miss Mary Col
Inns, daughter of John Collins, of Grip
pie Creek, who will be superintendent
and manager, and the five Boston
girls
The capital of the company is
$1,000, each girl contributing 5000.
The eastern girls were graduated
from college last year, and will go to
Cripple Creek next summer to look
after their mining interests. This was
the first lease to be granted to wom-
en- by the great Stratton estate. The
ground was sought by several mining
companies. One of the largest veins
in the district runs through the prop
erty.

Copyrish,. 1919. BY Western Newsp.psr Union
By PROF. c.. A. OCOCK
Wisconsin College Of .Asrieuhur

Over 100000, 900 is expended annu-
ally In the United States for farm ma
chinery. The average American farm
er exhibits progressiveness In his
adoption to and ready purchase of i'm
proved machinery, but woefully falls
by the wayside in his care of this
same machinery. A short trip into
even the best farming districts will
show barnyards dotted with valuable
machines which have absolutely no
protection from storms and weather
ing. The farmer houses his stock.
cribs his corn, fills his silo and gran:
aries and protects these from the ele-
ments, but shortsightedly leaves his
grain binder, cultivator, pillow. drill
and the rest of his machinery ex-
posed to all kinds of weather.
Exposure Worse Than Wear.
II these same farmers will stop to
consider that by their own shiftless-
ness, they are shortening the life of
this machinery from 60 to 80 per cent,
the need of better methods will be
self-evident. To a certain extent they
are aiding in the ultimate wreckage
of their machinery just as though they
gradually smashed 1t to pieces with
a sledge hammer. There is no need
to ask for the solution of this ques-
ton, 1t is so simple. Some 5000 or
$500 expended in a machine shed
would pay for itself in two years due
to the prevention of a depreciation in
value of the machines through expos
ure. Practical experience has shown
that while machinery without shelter
lasts only five years, that the same ma
chimes well housed and protected re-
main in good servicable condition for
over IL years. A machine shed re-
turns at least so per cent. on the
original investment 1t increases the
life of the machinery from so to 100
per cent,
Furthermore, the improved appear
ance OF the barnyard argues in favor
of the storage of machinery. The
prospective buyer or real estate agent
always notes unstored machinery scat
tered about the yard and accordingly
values the farm at lower price, due
to it's unfavorable external appear
ance.
Farm Tool Shed.
An excellent machine shed, with a
farm shop in one end readily Access
sible for repairs, should be about "a
by 60 feet. The shed should be pro-
vided with sufficient sliding doors so
that the various implements can be
taken out and returned with greater
saving of time and labor. The build
ing should face the south so that the
doors will not be exposed 20 beating,
driving storms from the north or to
the accumulation of snow and ice.
Such a shed and shop provided with
a concrete foundation would cost ap.
proximately $3.50. Considering the pro-
longed life and value of the machinery,
due to storage the cost of the build
ing would average about $40 year.
The farmer, well provided with a
suitable shop and machine shed, can
employ Lis. spare time very efficiently
during the winter in repairing and
caring for his machinery.
One ironclad rule should be rigidly
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1911-03-24

enforced on the carm. and that is
that every implement or machine
should be returned to its place in the
machine shed Immediately after it has
been used Then one knows the To-
cation of the machine and its condi-
ton, when it is again required for use.
1t takes but little extra time to return
tools to the shed when the team Is
hitched to them in the field.
Cleaning and oIlins Machines.
All the machines should be over
hauled and thoroughly cleaned be-
fore storing them for the winter.
Broken parts should be ordered and
repairs ordered so as to allow plenty
of time for their shipment. All bolts
should be frightened up, bearings sat
urated with lubricating oil, and wear
ing surfaces should be coated with
good quality of hard oil to prevent
rusting. The binder attachment OF the
grain binder and the mower mechan-
ism should be taken apart and thor-
