erary gift. She is said to have in

together with her fathers love of out

The HurlesOns are from Austin. Tex.
They have lived in the capital for

Miss Lucy was educated at the

WHEN CUTTING SCREWS.
Some Useful Rules as to the Best
Methods of Procedure,

Rule for cutting Il screw in Ill engine
lathe: In cutting Y thread screws it
is only necessary to practice operating
the shipper and slide screw handle Of
your lnthe before cutting. After hav-
ing done this. until you get the mo-
tons. you may set the point of the tool
as high as the center. and ii you keep
the tool sharp you will find 40 difficulty
in cutting screws You must. however.
cut very light chips. mere scrapings in
finishing. and must take it out Of the
lathe often and look ut 1t from both
sides very carefully to see that the
threads do not lean like fish scales.
After cutting polish with a stick and
some emery and oil.
Rule for cutting square thread
screws Always get the depth required
with a tool somewhat thinner than
one-half the pitch of the thread. After
doing this make another tool exactly
the pitch Of the thread and use 1t to
finish with. cutting a slight chip on
each side of the groove. After doing
this polish with Il pine stick and some
emery. Square threads for strength
should be cut one-half the depth Of
their pitch. while a square thread for
wear should be cut thr%ee.fourths the
depth Of their pitch.
Rule for mongrel or half V half
square threads: These are usually
made for great wear and should be
cut the depth Of their pitch. and for
extraordinary wear they may be cut
one and u half the depth OF the pitch.
The point and the bottom Of the
grooves should be within one-quarter
the depth of their pitch. What is meant
here by the point of the thread is the
outside surface. and the bottom of the
groove is the groove between threads.
In cutting these threads it is proper to
use a tool the shape Of the thread and
the thread is when finished. 1t is i'm
possible to cut the whole surface ut
once. You will cut it in depth about
one-siXteenth Mt Il time. then q chip off
the sides of the thread. and continue
in this way alternately till you have
arrived ut the depth required. Make
a gauge Of the size required between
the thread and finish by scraping with
water. 1t is usually best 10 leave
such screws as these a little large until
after they are cut and then turn off a
light chip to size them. This leaves
them true and nice.-Blacksmith and

Value Of an Important ManuriaI Re-

Prepared by United States department
of agricultural
Barnyard manure is the most impor-
tant mnnurial resource of the farm and
should be carefully saved and used. 1t
not only enriches the soil with nitro
gen, p%hosphoric acid and potash, but it
also renders the stored up materials of
the soil more available, improves the
mechanical condition Of the soil, makes
it warmer and enables it to retain more
moisture.
On the basis of prices charged for
commercial fertilizers. the average
value of the manure annually produced
by each horse or mule is $27. by each
head of cattle $40, by each hog $12 and
by each sheep 50. Probably less than
half these values are actually realized
in practice. 1t should be stated. how.
ever that this method Of estimating the
value OF manure is often misleading
