build his own forge and the only ex-
pense will be for the bellows, which
will cost about 81. secondhand. The
best plan is to get a forge of No.

both practical and efficient.
The supply of carpenters tools in
the shop will vary with the individual,

finishing and block, a steel square,
tri-square, bevelsquare, and a spirit

average farmer can do the greater
part of his repairing on the home
farm.
Home Carpentry for Farmers.
Among the various tasks which
should occupy the farm mechanic dur
ing the slack winter period are build
ing or repairing chicken houses, hay
racks, wagon boxes, hog racks, porta-
BILE panel hurdles, farm gates and va
rious other implements, which the
amateur carpenter can successfully
construct or remodel The matter of
farm gates seems simple, yet on num-
bers of farms the makeshift gates
In use are disgrace. A serviceable
and attractive gate can be easily
built with double cleats at each end
and the middle, and a double brace
running diagonally from the top of
each end cleat to the bottom Of the
middle cleat for reinforcement.
Repairing Tools.
The farm mechanic can use his
forge to excellent advantage in re-
pairing machinery parts, broken tools
horseshoeing, and in numerous other
odd Jobs which are continually turning
up around the farm. With a little
practice he can soon acquire ability
to weld together broken parts. He
can also use his forge in repairing OF
tempering shovels, pickaxes, grubaxes
broken log chains, and other articles

The mixture used In feeding troughs
is a 1876 combination; that is, 1 part
cement 3 parts sand and parts clean
broken stone or gravel The stone or
gravel should not be larger than one
half inch in diameter. The sand
should be free from sticks, straw or
dirt, and the cement a good grade of
Portland. Place the cement in the
center of the pile of sand at one cor
ner of the mixing box and mix dry UNI
til the mixture has the same color
throughout. In the opposite corner
place the stone and wet thoroughly;
after this mix stone, sand, and ce-
ment adding water until the whole
mass has medium consistency. Use
a masons brick trowel to work out
all air bubbles, leaving a smooth sur
face. When desired 4 finishing coat
of l part cement and parts sand
can be used.
The reinforcement can be either
3-16 inch steel or iron rods or double
twisted barb wire. Place the re-en-
forcement the same distance from the
surface as its own diameter. The re-
endorsements should run lengthwise OF
the trough. with a strand at each end
and one IN me middle running cross
wise.
Making Concrete Fence Posts.
In making solid concrete posts a
mixture of one part cement, "a
parts sand, and parts clean broken
stone or gravel is used. The prepare
ton of the concrete is the same as
for the troughs The post forms should
be made OF a fair grade of rather
green lumber, should have the inner
surface smooth, and all joints tight,
! to prevent the cement from leaking
away with the water. The forms per-

and AKA inches square at the ends
The bottom hoard has holes to CORE
spond to the dowel pin in the side
boards, the iron clamps used prevent
ing the side boards from spreading.
The same reinforcement as for
feed troughs can be used. When
filling the form with concrete, place
4 to Y inch in the bottom of the
form, then lay in two rods one on each
side; continue the filling until within
q inch of the top, when the remain
ing two rods should be properly laid
in. Each rod should have a hook at

HOW CoCOANUTS ARE USED
Immense Value OF the Trees and
How the Crop Ia
Garnerod.

A cocoanut tree in the Islands OF
Trinidad and Tobago begins to pro
duce nuts in four OF five years after
planting. and reaches maturity In
twelve or fourteen years. The aver
age life Of healthy tree is fifty
years, often very much longer. The
production of nuts does not average
more than one hundred mature
tree. At present cocoanuts for ex-
port are invoiced at from S1S to $22,
a probable average of SIC thousand,
copra at to cents pound. and the
otl at 80 cents a gallon. The nuts
are mostly shipped to Philadelphia
and New York, the copra to Europe
and the oil to the other West India
islands.
Cocoanut trees are planted about
$50 to the acre. and fifteen TO eight
cen feet apart. Unsklled labor,
coolie labor chiefly, is paid 80 to so
cents a day, while the pickers get 30
cents thousand, and higher wage

to science is being used to limit the
spread of the disease. 1t is not, how
ever, generally prevalent, but works
most injury in sections where there
is too much moisture. Insect pests
have also to be contended with. but
these thus far have not caused much
alarm among the producers. The nat.
ural annual death rate of the trees,
as stated by leading horticulturist,
does not exceed five thousand, and
to 10 per cent In sections of planta-
tons where the bud rot prevails.
The cocoanut industry is considered
very profitable, and is rapidly grow
ing here. The largest producer grows
100000 nuts year, another 5000,
900, while the remainder are mostly
small producers.
The shells are looked upon as
waste, except as they rot and become
fertilizer, or when used on the large
estates for road making. An effort
was made few years ago to utilize
the fiber as a marketable product, but
the effort proved unsuccessful, prob
ably because 1t was not carried Out
on the right lines.

beautiful young wife looked down and
saw his tragic death. In the square at
the summit of this staircase is the
place where Brutus harangued the un-

Caesar. No part of Rome is better
adapted to contain the portrait gal

Rome has more churches in COM

Every farm should be equipped with
a farm shop in which the owner can
repair broken parts of farm machines
or make new ones and thereby save
both time and money by making use
of the winter days when other work is
slack The shop may be either
small building by itself or simply cor
ner of the barn or implement shed fit
ted up as a shop. One rule however
should be rigidly enforced; that the
shop is a storehouse for the tools.
and that every tool should be returned
TO its place in the shop after being
used.
The Farm Workshop.
Among the essentials in the farm
hop are a strong, durable work
bench, an iron wise, an efficient forge,
anvil. and supply of caroenter's tools
corresponding to the needs of the indi-

Many are the stories told regarding
ladies who visit banks, telegraph Off

to conform to certain prescribed bust
ness usages, such as properly indoors
ing a check or presenting proof of
identity. One Of the latest is told by
the Cleveland Leader In Town Talk:
Several days ago a handsome WON
a., handsomely dressed and accom-.
panied by two small boys, called at
the Western Union office to cash a
telegraph money order she had re-
ceived from her husband, who was
In Chicago on business. Cashier John
H. Cox asked the woman all the
usual questions about Identification,
but with no satisfactory results. Alb
solutely she had no documentary proof
Of her identity. AS last resort, Mr.
Cox said: Now, madam, I would like
very much to give you the money this
order calls for. Can't you prove to me
some way that you are Mrs. Blank?
Hesitating a moment, the woman ex-
claimed: Why, yes, of course I can
