DOES SHELTER PAY?
Reckoning the Cost of Keeping Farm
Machinery Under Cover.

Reckoning the Cost of Keeping Farm
Machinery Under Cover.
A CORRESPONDENT Of the Kansas
Farmer says that paper places undue
importance upon the necessity OF
sheltering farm implements and that
the cost of lumber and interest on the
investment in a machinery shed is
greater than the depreciation on imple-
ments as a result Of exposure. The pa
per replies:
"The average 100 acre farm is re-
garded as having $1,000 invested in
farm machinery, including wagons and
buggies. 1t is our Judgment that the
average Kansas farm has nearer 81, 500
invested. We are confident that the
depreciation on farm equipment when
exposed to the storms is not less than
10 per cent per year. We are inclined
to the belief that it is 20 per cent per
year. We know that 20 per cent de-
probation will apply TO at least part
Of the equipment.
'"The more equipment exposed to the
weather the larger the depreciation in
dollars and cents One hundred dol
lars will erect first class machin-
cry shed. If 500 is not available
$50 will erect a shed sufficiently large
to house in very satisfactory manner
$1,000 to $500 worth Of machinery.
The $50 shed will be smaller than the
500 shed. and its use will require
some piling up of machinery.
"This, however. can be done with no
cash outlay and with little outlay of
time and labor. If the depreciation on
the shed itself is 5 per cent per year
and the interest on the investment is
or per cent per year there is still
considerable amount In favor of saw
ing the 10 per cent or minimum de-
probation on the machinery.
at does not seem possible that a.
wide awake farmer would argue
against the advantages of good ma
chinery care. even though 1t be impos-
sible for him to provide a machine

HIGHLY COLORED FUN.

Grotesque Sport That Is Part Of the
Holt Festival.
The curiously childish horseplay OF
the Holt festival. which is celebrated
annually by the maharaja of Patiala.
is described by Mrs. Charles Bertram
IN "A Magician In Many Lands" The
author made the acquaintance of the
| famous Hindu ruler during a tour OF
India and was invited to remain over
for the festival.
Early in the morning went to the
club. where I found many Of the
guests, who were taking part In the
ceremony for the first time. We were
provided with a complete new suit of
Hindu garments. and our dressing
was superintendent by the maharajas
servants. We had camels, elephants
and victorias provided for us. / was
on an elephant in kind of box. and
we drove In procession to the palace
In the native city.
We were received with great acclaim
by the natives, and l was led to be-
lieve that it was to be decidedly dig
nified occasion. But l was woefully
| mistaken. The fun had not begun.
Certain formalities had to be gone
through before the signal was given.
We took our seats in the courtyard
of the palace at long table that was
loaded with large gilt dishes filed with
different colored balls as large as
oranges and filed with Holt powder.
At signal the brother Of the mahara-
ia came to the front of the table and
salaamed to the prince, who took one
of the balls and threw It gently across
the table. striking the officer on the
| breast
The ball broke and scattered the
powder over his costume. Then there
was a general scramble, and in less
time than it takes to write hundreds
of balls were flying about, their many
colored contents scattered broadcast on
the crowd. Next baskets of loose pow
Ger were thrown upon us In handouts.
It was no use to expostulate. The
moment you opened your mouth some
body filled it with powder. The battle
grew fast and furious, when suddenly
an enormous stream Of water from a
fire engine drenched everybody. The
colored powders became wet and, min
Cling together. dyed us all in brilliantly
variegated hues.
After this sort OF thing had gone on
for half an hour it ceased by mutual
consent, and we returned to the pri-
vate gardens of the maharaja, where
we were most unceremoniously pitch
ed into a tank Of running water. I
was dyed a deep scarlet all over my
body, and 1t was fully a month before
the color entirely disappeared from my
face and hands.

Critter Wisdom.

As a general proposition it may be
said that the SOW that has pigs before
she is year old will disappoint her
owner.
Sorghum is an excellent succulent
feed for cows. horses, sheep and hogs.
When fed green it saves more ex'
pensive feeds and keeps stock in fair
flesh until other feeds can be gathered
The safest bull the dairyman can use
is generally cross bull. At first this
may seem a strange assertion. The
reason, however. is simple. The bull
that is known to be cross will always
be watched.
Do not give fresh COWS. Immediately
after calving. heavy feed. Give mild
or warm water and small amount OF
light feed. such as bran. that will be
cooling to the system and will keep
the bowels loose.

months will consume some silage ii

Lizards TaIIs.
Certain lizards are remarkable for
the fragility of their tails. although
this weakness is not always the draw

mond tailed gecko. for instance. fire.
Quently owes its existence to the readi-
ness with which it's caudal appendage
can be snapped off. This reptile, which
will perch upon a rock head downward
and tail in the air. is liable to be prey
ed upon by hawks. One of these for
midable birds will swoOp down upon
a lizard and seize what it takes to be
the head, but is. really the tail. The
brittle tail snaps off, and the geckO
wriggles away, not much the worse, to
grow another.

7 IRON RIVER :
%%%%%%%%%44%'
From the Pioneer:

From the Pioneer:
The Northern Pacific and South
Shore railroads, passing through
Iron River, seems to be having all
the business they can handle this
win term fact more than they can
handle with anything like prompt
ness. A few days ago the N. P.
had $50 cars of pulpwood alone at
the Head of the Lakes awaiting
shipment. The South Shore, feeling
the press of business, has ordered
many new engines and other rolling
stock to handle their increased
traffic.
When the Wisconsin State Bank
of this city announced that it would
buy cows for the farmers in the
vicinity of Iron River, and permit
payment to be made for the animals
purchased from portion of the
cream checks, it struck popular
chord and we notice that other
banks in this part of the state are
falling ia line with the plan. The
latest is the United States National
of Superior. 1t is good thing, and
it is to be hoped that farmers who
can take care of more cows than
they now have and who are unable
to purchase more stock outright.
will avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity of getting more on this easy
payment plan.
The Supreme Court of Wisconsin
handed down a decision yesterday
affirming the decision of Judge Ross
in the case of Dan damon against
the Iron River Lumber Company.
Mr.. damon sued the company for
personal injuries end or the trial of
the case in the circuit court of Doug
