Decreasing Cost Of Machinery Repairs
WANT BOOK.
Sheet from Farmers Want Book"

Few farmers have definite idea
of the total amount OF money invested
in farm machinery If you we're to
ask John Smith how much his farm
machinery was worth he would be UNI
able to answer you. He would proba-
bly, tell you that the different nipple
ments cost so much, and that there
were a number of repairs for several
of these That these implements were
so many years old, and were probably
worth only about half of what they
were at first Possibly he had bought
some of these secondhand, and had
never kent any record of the money
invested in farm machinery.
Farming being business, should be
run on business principles, If one is to
know where he is making or losing
money So with the machinery the
first cost and repairs should be re-
corded anC a strict account kept of all
labors involved in the up-keep of the
different farm machines. This can
only be done by regular business meth
DDS The operator of the small farm
may feel that this is not important, and
from his point of view it may not be.
Yet actual experience shows that I'M
less some records are kept in operat-
ing a farm it is extremely difficGlt 10

the work as occasion permits, and in
a short time all OF the home work is
completed The work usually done at
the village shop should be noted and
the list left in a convenient place so
that no extra time is required in To-
eating it and arranging for the work.
Some farms are fortunate enough to
have their own shop, and where such
conditions exist it is not necessary to
take the pillow shares to the village
for sharpening. but this and many 9TH
er kinds of such work can be done at
home. The large farms having great
er requirements Will naturally require
more machinery, SO that the one in
charge of the machinery should not
lose sight of the fact that a large sup
ply of common repairs is better than
to be out half of the time, thus caus-
ing unnecessary delays in the farm
operations.
The stock of duplicate parts to be
ordered should be for sickle sections,
for mowers and binders, also sickle
heads and pitmans for the mowers.

There are many developments OF
the quaint Wilhelmina bonnet. less
extreme than the smart model shown
here. Lace and flowers trim them and
they are bewitchingly pretty and
feminine looking Almost any face
may find the particular variety of this
shape which Is becoming and novel a
combination to be noted when one
takes up the selection of the Easter
hat
The most beautiful and becoming
of all hats is the wide-brimmed pic
ture hat. 1t may be worn by any one
on the sunny side of sixty. or on the
other side, for that matter, by those
whose looks and bearing belle the
years. II is made of all sorts OF
straw-braids; chip. Milan. hemp. leg
horn, hair Tuscan. ETC.. and of nets or
laces or chiffon. In fact. every mil
linery fabric is brought into use for
the picture hat
This year many of the shapes are
manufactured with black velvet
| fange or border on the under brim.
| or the entire under brim is faced with
| black velvet The hemps, chips and
Milans are dyed in many colors. Mat
| tier and light blue rose and hello
trope being the favorites Those
shapes that are faced or bound with
velvet provide the easiest and most
satisfactory selection for the amateur
milliner. Such hats are trimmed
with quantities OF flowers, and both
silk and velvet ribbon help out In
their decoration. A fine Milan. in the
natural straw-color, trimmed with
roses In their natural colorings and
with black silk or velvet ribbon,
makes a combination always beauti'
! full. The same is true of other braids.
The Panama has entered the field OF
| the picture hat also. 1t is now manu-
| featured in shapes with wide brims.
It remains to be seen whether or not
this incomparably beautiful braid will
strike the right note in flower
trimmed picture hat.
Among these various hats there is
one for every woman. Let her not
] underrate the Importance of finding
her own, nor forget the charm of
| flowers. Now that they are so fash
ionable let each one do something to-
ward the brightness of Easter by
wearing them. Since the days of the
fower-laden Merry Widow" such
adorable hats have not been shown
as those which have arrived with
leap year There is no reason why
the affair of the Easter hat should not
be settled to everybody's satisfaction

know on what money is being saved
and made.
To keep farm machinery in repair is
no small item, and frequently time lost
in being delayed during busy period
while waiting for repairs is the cause
for a still greater loss. The time loss
IN many cases might be done away
with if more care was exerted in over
hauling the machinery during the win
ter season, when farm work is some
what slack Many farmers make
practice of making some repairs dur
ing the winter, but there is greater
majority who never feel that it is
worth while to spend time to do such
work, but believe they will have time
enough in the spring or before 1t is
time to use the machine again. AS
rule, the work is not done until the
machine or implement should be in
the field, which ought not to be the
case. The repairing, to be done at
the least expense and loss of time
should be done in the winter, or at
least most of 1t. There are some i'm
plements that one might find difficult
TO repair, especially in some of the
machinery sheds which are found on
farms.
With a good machinery shed and
work shop at one end where stove
could be set up to take the chill from
the air, this work might be handled
very nicely with little il any discom-
future, even in the coolest weather
There will be a great many stormy
days when little if any work can be
done out of doors, when the work IN
the shop can be very satisfactorily
carried en- Where the repairs cannot
be readily put in the respective places,

is frequently behind many of the
smaller machines, making it rather
difficult 10 get at for repairing. In

severe wear and order these parts for
the coming season.
A want beck" and box of ship

equipment of the farm office. In the
book should be made a notation Of the
worn or broken part, and with it the
letter and number, thus: For the
grain harvester, binder driver dog H.
$780,"
A shipping tag with letter and num-
Der should then be attached to the
part to assist in quickly locating when
repairs are to be put in place. The
same holds true with reference to
bolts. When housing the machinery
you may not have the proper bolts on
hand. bat the want book" and tags
will furnish the necessary information,
as, "One machine bolt 21s inches by
81 inches" This, with others which
may be required, may be purchased in
one order. which will probably result
in a saving of one-half.
