Flour an OH viii Keep Rsst Away.

Flour an OH Will Keep Rust Away.
Machines and polished parts Of ma.
chinces not In daily use, and subjected
to ordinary atmospheric conditions.
will soon rust, thereby rendering them
unsightly, and In time will cause a
very noticeable deterioration.
When machines are laid up for q
time, such as farm machinery. the
parts not actually painted should be
coated with rust preventative. Such
= substance should have the qualities
Of cheapness, ease of application and
removal, and not be injurious to the
surface coated.
A good and inexpensive coat may be
made by mixing -four with common
machinery or lubricating oil. This
mixture should have q consistency of
thin paste. 1t may be applied with a
paint brush. The -four keeps the oil
from drying hard, and the oil will pre-
vent the air and moisture from coming
into contact with the surface of the
parts treated, thereby preventing rust
or corrosive effects.
This coating may be easily removed
by cloth or piece of waste saturated
with goal oil or gasoline. Il. d, Grain.
