FREEZES HELPFUL TO SOILS
Aid PuIverize Broken Ground, Cause
Particles - CrumbIe and Vege-
table Matter to Break.

There is considerable advantage in
severe freezes during winter. While
cold weather makes expenses some
what heavier unless the farmstead is
well arranged for comfort, both for
man and animals, the soil is always
benefited by freezes.
Farmers readily recognize that after
hard freezes the soil is in better con-
dition. Freezes help pulverize broken
ground; they cause the particles to
crumble, vegetable matter to disinte-
CRATE and break down. There is also
considerable check to the increase of
insects. Many insects in the pupa
stage are killed by very cold weather
and this means less increase the fol-
lowing spring and summer. However,
there are some that stand very low
temperatures without injury.
The best way to get the full benefits
of winter SHOWS and winter freezes is
to have the land broken.

Time-savlns Hoist.

Most of the labor and time usually
consumed in lifting paper stock to the
top of a fiat press in a printing estab-
ishment are saved through the use Of
an elevating mechanism that is now
being adopted. A steel framework,
carrying a motor and hoisting outfit,
is attached at the feeding end of a
press. The paper is moved beneath it
on small truck. Cables are then at
tached to the latter and power applied.
When the top of the stack reaches
the desired height, the hoist stops. As
the feeder removes the paper the re-
mainder is raised automatically so that
the stack is maintained at the proper
elevation until eShausted.-Popular

ground into flour. People would have
better teeth and better digestion.
But this article i3 about cheap food
and not about the business of keeping
healthy.
Rice is the chief diet of about third
of the population of the world. The
rice-eating Jap whipped the filling ouI
of the tallow and flour-eating Russian.
A man can go farther on rice diet
than on any other single article of food
that is grown.
SO, if you do not want to spend all
your money for food, buy rice.
II you want to have a variety in your
diet, and that cheaply, buy sweet po.
tatoes. And if you want dessert buy
some molasses. Rice, sweet potatoes
and molasses are the only food prod
ucts we know of that are not high.
Eat rice, 1t is healthful; and eat rice,
it is cheap.

WINTER RULES.

Protect your animals from the
cold. This will make them more
comfortable, and viii save you
feed.
Stop the holes in your barn.
Board in your tie-up.
An old horse, especially, like
an old man, feels the cold.
Blanket your horses on frosty
nights in the fall, when their
coats are short.
Give your horses and cattle a
good bed. Bedding is cheap.
Water your horses at least
three times day. The stomach
of the horse is very small.
Punctuality in feeding and wa
tering the stock is very impor-
tant. They will worry and lose
flesh if. kept waiting beyond the
regular time.
A good grooming costs no
money, and is equal to two
quarts of oats.
A horse cannot thrive on hay
alone. He needs oats or corn for
strength; and grass, bran or po-
tatoes to keep his bowels right.
Keep your horses feet soft,
and have him shod often. More
feet are ruined in the stable than
on the road.
Do not degrade your family by
using lame horse.
Kill the worn-out or incurably
lame horse. If you sell him, the
money that you receive is blood
