Setting a Band Saw.

In setting a band saw one is liable
10 have the first few teeth set a little
too wide. To overcome this and have
the teeth all in line s the following
method: When putting the band saw
on the wheels put it on upside down, SO
that the teeth will point upward. Then
it is frightened until the saw set is
drawn to the right width, whereupon
the wheels are turned slowly by hand
until the saw has made N complete
turn. This will put any teeth in line
that were out and save the trouble Of
using the set to draw them back a
little.

Start Slowly With Chickens.

Do not attempt to do too much the
first year you go into the poultry bust
ness. Don't raise a lot of chicks and
give them half hearted attention, but
raise a few choice ones and give plenty
Of time to the work. You may want
to start on a big scale, and with a great
number Of breeds. but If you will be a
little conservative it will be for your
own good later on.

Motor Driving Pointer.

Some Of the grade crossing accidents
that befall motorists arise through the
motor being stalled in an attempt to
make the usual slight grade on high
gear under a low charge of gas and
a consequent slow motor speed, says
the Automobile Dealer and Repairer.
A careful driver will make it a rule to
shift to an intermediate gear just be-
fore reaching a railroad crossing. no

stances. and even If he can see a clear
track for half a mile in either direc-
