When the UNDERWOOD
made its a lvent in the mar
ket fourteen years ago. as
the original front stroke Wis
ible writing typewriter, it
met with instant popular ia
vor because it marked a dis
tinct advance in the art Of
typewriter construction.
Typewriters representing
in design and construction
the best achievements Of the
mechanical world up to that
time have been distanced by
the UNDERWOOD in the
markets Of the world until
today its sales largely ex.
ceed those of any other
make of machine. In the
effort to offset the univer-
sal popularity and growth
of the UNDERWOOD ma
chine. all makers Of "blind"
writing machines hav e
changed their models to Wis.
ible writer's in the last few
years and visible writing has
become the current talking

The UNDERWOOD is de.
signed on correct mechani.
pal principles, is made Of the

pleasant, but when both the roads anc
the weather are at their worst it mus
be something like war.
The hired man problem does moi
seem to grow any easier as the years
roll by. This year they are getting
from $35 to $40 per month for eight
or nine months, with board and wash
ing extra, which may not be any too
much in this age of high living, but it
looks like lot Of money to those Of
us who put in some pretty hard licks

1t would be interesting to hear from
those who are using hollow brick silos
this winter regarding the ability of
their silos to keep out the frost. We
are all more or less acquainted with
the wood silo, but the hollow brick silo
is still in the experimental stage and
all the information we can get about
them from actual users is more than
welcome.
The grain drill can hardly be re-
garded as labor-saving machine, but
it is crop maker and seed saver.
In order to do good work on fields
that were in corn last year, the ground
should be double disked so that fine
seed bed will be prepared before
starting the drill. Dragging before
seeding will usually do more harm
than good, because the stalks will be
liable to be left in piles that will raise
the disks and leave the seed on top
Of the ground.
If the silo comes to stay there will
be great change in barn building in
the future. The hay loft will be made
a great deal smaller and the stock
room made larger and more airy be-
,ause the feeding of silage makes it
necessary to keep the cows in a good
share of the time during the winter.
Frozen feed, ice water and standing
