EVERY FARM NEEDS A HOIST
Many Little inexpensive contrivances
Can Be Built for General Use
Around the Farm.

There is lot of heavy lifting about
farm work There are. however. many
little inexpensive contrivances, some
of which it is necessary, to buy and
others of which can De homemade,
which will save great deal of very
hard labor. One of the things which
should be on every farm is light
hoist costing 81, or possibly little
more, the cost depending upon the
lifting capacity. A hoist 1000 to 1000
capacity is the most satisfactory s:ge
for general farm work
With good hoist you can do all the
heavy lifting without calling your
neighbor or interruptiag the hired man
in his work 1t is surprising the great
number of jobs on which hoist can
be used, at great saving of time

It has. been said against turkeys
that they are destructive to crops, but
in the writer's experience, they have,
instead. proved benefit to growing
crops of hay or grain; they are in
search of insects. not green food
Is AS soon as, or before, the hens show
an inclination to seek for nests in the
spring sufficient number of barrels
or large boxes should be placed where
they can find them, preferibly on the
ground so that the hen may walk into
the nest; il she has to jump down
into the barrel or box the chances are

these boxes or barrels by partly COW

eggs. give all over that number to a

When molasses is fed to dairy cows,

It is not at all unlikely that the mas
