MACHINERY ON A DRY FARM
Equipment Represents Considerable
Observation-Disclosures of Investiaa-
ton at Colorado Station.

The machinery and equipment re-
quired on a modern farm represents
very considerable investment and
1t is we'll to insure that the life of
these machines is of normal length.
1t is well known that the average
farmer does not give his machinery
the care it deserves and evidences of
this are on every hand in every agri.
cultural section.
An investigation was recently con-
Quoted at the Colorado experiment
station In regard to what influence
housing and other care Of farm ma
chinery had upon its period of use
fulness, and some surprising facts
were developed. The average man
will agree that II the machinery Is
properly housed as soon as he is
.hrough with it in the field it is be-
Ing given good care. The conclusions
reached from these investigations,
however, show that the housing of ma
chinery under any condition and not
properly caring for it otherwise con-
stitutes very poor care
On this point the following conclu-
sions are presented in the Colorado
station bulletin giving the results of
Investigations upon this subject:
ITO house machinery does not al
ways do as much good as is commonly
supposed. To house it, under any con-
dition, and not properly care for 1t
otherwise, constitutes very poor care.
Machinery may be just as well
cared for if it is allowed to stand in
| the shade of a tree as II it is stored
In some of the leaky sheds, poorly
drained sheds, or combined machine
sheds and hen roosts, such as were
found during the investigation.
There is no question but that to
properly house machinery Is a great
saving, as it not only adds a great
deal to the life of the machine but it
also adds to the general appearance
Of the farm. 1t was generally found
that where farmer was interested
enough to properly house it. he was
also interested enough in 1t to care
for 1t otherwise.
1.-The investigation showed that the
life of the farm machinery depended
great deal upon the owner. Indi
vidual farmers were found who tool
very good care of their machinery and
left 1t in the weather when not in
use. A great deal of housed ma
chinery was found which had done ne
more work and was no better mol
older than some which had not beer
housed but which had been well cared

SPEED MANIA A DISEASE.
Atlanta Doctors Compare 1t to Men,
nights or the Smallpox.

Atlanta Doctors Compare 1t to Men,
nights or the Smallpox.
That speed mania is disease, just
as dangerous and just as contagious
as meningitis or smallpox, is averred
by Atlanta physicians. They declare
that the speed mania nearly always
strikes a community as an epidemic,
and that by sctudying its nature it
can nearly always be traced to its
source.
Three years ago when they were
making ninety miles an hour in high
power racing autos on the local
speedway hundreds of Atlanta -dri-
vers and chauffeurs caught the dis
ease, and there were scores of auto
accidnets and numbers of deaths
about that period.
At this time, when the auto speed
way has been long since closed, a
motorcycle race track has been open
ed. and today the police are having
all kinds of trouble with motorcyc-
lists who have gone speed crazy on
the streets.
Before there was any motorcycle
track the police had comparatively
little trouble with speeding motor
cyclists, but now half the people
who own them seem to think it their
duty on the public thoroughfares to
see how nearly they can emulate the
men who whirl around the cup shap'
ed track.

KISS SHADOW ON CURTAIN
CAUSED ATLANTA POLICE TO
NAB SPOONERS IN CAB.
Atlanta Jurist Says There Is No Law
Against Osculatory Caresses.
Officers Criticised.

ATLANTA.-Cons fun has
been poked at Atlanta's police de-
partment and, likewise, much criti'
cism has been INDUCED in as the re-
suit of the arrest a few nights age
of q couple who happened to be seen
by the police kissing each other in a
cab. The cab was closed, but the
shadow of the kiss was seen on the
curtain, and the couple were imme-
diately taken to the police station,
where they were compelled to put UP
S25.75 collateral, which, naturally,
they forfeited rather than appear and
have any more talk about it.
II would not do of course to use
his name, but one of Atlanta's best
known judges, commenting on the
incident, asked
when did it become against the
law for q man to kiss a woman?
There is no such law that have ever
heard of, it makes no difference
whether the kissing be in public or
private. I don't know anything
about why this particular man
should have kissed this particular
woman; but I do know there Is no
law of any kind to forbid it, and it
the man in question had attacked
the policeman the law could have
done nothing with him for it. !"
So widespread has been the criti-
cism over this incident that the po-
lice have become stirred up about it,
and it led to a statement from head
quarters that the offense for which
the couple were arrested was more
serious than merely kissing.
Nevertheless the case has been
played up as one quite characteristic
of some of the more recent work of
the Atlanta police department, and
the criticism appears to be having
some good effect in other directions

BATS EAT MOSQUITOES.
City of San Antonio Has Established

City of San Antonio Has Established
''Bat RoOsts'' For Them.
Bats, as is well known, are insect
eaters, and are particularly fond OF
mosquitoes. In the twilight, when
they rove about, they deyour large
numbers of the pestiferous insects
their manner being to dash back and
forth through the swarm and boggle
the victims up by the wholesale.
The city of San Antonio, which is
plagued with mosquitoes, has estab-
lished "bat roosts," or structures SO
constructed as to invite bats to take
shelter there. There are no windows
but the opportunity Of entrance is
afforded to the bats by a series Of
openings so arranged as to resemble
the stats of an ordinary window shut
ter. T ehwhole building is 80 feel
high, the upper 20 being the enclosed
portion, and the Slated arrangement
runs up each of two sides for dis
