REPAIRING FARM MACHINERY.

Repairs Should be Made systsmatieaI-
ly and When Work 10 Not Rushing.
Importance Of repairing farm ma
chinery so that 1t will be ready for use
when needed is emphasized by f. A.
Writ, assistant professor in charge Of
the department Of farm machinery In
the Kansas State Agricultural college.
Repairs should be made systemati-
cally, and at times when work Is not
rushing" said Mr.. Writ "In putting
q machine away after seasons work,
notation should be made Of the parts
needed, while the operation of the ma
chine Is still fresh In mind. These
notes may be made on tags and attach
ed to the machine, but separate list
should be kept on file In case any OF
the tags are lost. If the farmer waits
until spring he probably will forget
about the repairs needed.
I'm the slack winter season the farm
er should go to the shop and put every
machine into first class condition. This
gives the implement dealer time to OBJ.
tain the parts needed Ordering by
mail lessons the chance Of getting the
wrong piece. Parts needed cannot al.
ways be obtained from the dealer, but
will have to come from the branch
house or factory, and plenty of time
should be allowed.
I'm the busy season, when break.
age occurs, the farmer repairs it as
best he can and goes on using the ma
chine. The work may suffice for the
rest Of the season, but win not last
through another year. Such repairs
are often the cause Of inferior work
and make the process Of harvesting ex-
pensive."
