Driving Nails Like Shooting Bullets.

A hammer which adapts the princi-
pie of the military machine gun to the
more peaceful pursuit Of carpentry
has been invented to save the time and
trouble of getting and holding nails
in position with the left hand while
using the hammer with the right. A
trigger controls the feed of the nails,
and nail can be completely driven
In one stroke. By the use of such a
device, which weighs about 30 ounces,
it is no longer necessary for carpen-
ter to carry full pouch of nails and
to adjust each one laboriously with
his fingers

Then they put about eight quarts in a ten
quart pan and they were set upon racks
and left to cure, which would take from
"a to SO hours. Then it was skinned
and the skim milk fed to calves and pigs,
and the cream was mixed with what was
on hand and stirred and kept in a cool
place. 1t was churned every other day,
and when I was a small girl and lived on
the old Allen farm and had fifty cows the
churning was done every day. But you
understand this cream had been kept un-
til cured, as good housewives could
quickly tell and then it was ehurned
mostly by hand. Still, on some large
farms horse or a dog or a sheep would
do it on windlass. Then the milk would
be drawn off, the butter washed. sailed
and packed, maybe so or 100 or $50 lbs.
and put in frkins. These had been soak
ed in brine for FIVE or six days to take
out the taste of wood and also so they
would hold the brine that was put on as
soon as the butter got firm, which would
be about s or 10 hours. Everything had
to be kept sweet and clean from the time
you commenced to pack down. which
would be from the last of May. Then in
the fall men would come from New York,
Boston and Portland and our home buy
ers would go to the diaries. After the
butter was selected every tub had to be
turned out, tub washed in scalding water
and cloths scalded, tubs cooled and Slip
ped on over the butter again, which of
course was marked so there would be no
trouble. Cloths were neatly put on the
top with fresh salt and sometimes they
required it brined, as it had to be taken
to Burlington, ST. Adams or Waterbury.
and proud was the housewife when the
buyer praised her butter. 1t was good
deal of money in their pockets, besides it
showed she had been neat and tidy.
"Now l have an idea there is hardly
anyone of the younger class that has any
idea there was so much work in making
butter. With all these new ideas they
can't keep butter as it used to be kept.
There is something about curing the
cream 81 they claim. Now there are
milking machines. separators, churns,
butter workers. So much ease

days was something of an art. A man
must understand his business, or he was
a failure.
"Well, have nearly forgotten myself.
But the time has gone so rapidly that

night, when we will again talk about
Henry Noyes. You are about right;

FRED T0NEY NOW MEMBER

several Bad Starts In the Big League
Failed to Discourage Big Hurler

hit twirlers, but he also had another
idea in mind. He wanted to PROVE that
ne could "come back" and this recalls
some ancient history.
Several years ago Fred was twirling
for the Winchester (Ky.) club in the
Blue Grass league. One day he pitched
a Trimming no-hit contest, and per-
formed this feat while a scout for the
Cubs was among those present in the
grandstand. Toney was signed by the
chicago Nationals and heralded as
wonder when he broke into the big
Show. But Fred exploded as a large
league star. He had worlds of speed,
but his control was awful. He lasted
q couple of years and was shunted to
Louisville, where he had his good and
bad days, but mostly bad. He was
given another chance, but couldn't
stay up, so he went back again and
tWirled Indifferent bail. Finally at the
end of the 1914 season he was turned
loose and politely requested to shift
for himself. He was free agent,
with nothing but reputation of hav-
ing the speed of a railroad train, but
wild as q mountain hare"
But Toney was not discouraged. He
had a sneaking idea that he had the
goods and could pitch baseball as well
as any Of the so-called stars. He tried

The cat was domesticated among the

with titular deity. Since then it has

influence was attributed to the animal.
