chemical action, he may be the most dis
agreeable man on earth The glands OF

in this way men and women may be
tempted to do things that are wrong.
Let me illustrate my point by suck
ing a lemon IN front OF a cornet player.
Involuntarily the saliva glands of his

whisky in front of a drinking man. and
his mouth will water. Place a beefsteak

happens to his thyroid glands.

work. The scene showing a hurricane

The incidental music during the per-

REPAIR WORN MACHINERY.
Scarcity of Implements Must Be Met
byPutting Old Ones into Shape
for Work.

The great cutlery for farm produc
ton and the scarcity of machinery
points to the needs of some way to
repair great many implements that
are now useless largely because of the
neglect with which they have been
treated, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, which adds
that the machinery manufacturers
and their local sales agents should
help to perform this repair service.
Turnout the country there are
thousands of binders, mowers, and
other farm machines rustiDg in the
fence corners, and many of these
mi ght be made available for further
valuable service. The manufacturers
of farm machinery are admittedly
unable to furnish all the new machin-
es required and are paying for full
page advertisements to influence gov
ernmental authorities to insure them
necessary raw materials and trans
portation in competition with the de-
mand for machines of war.
The railroads of the country, &C
cording to one of their officials. are
being compelled In the present emer-
gency to rescue practically every
scrap locomotive from the old-iron
graveyards and rebuild them for act
i've service. A similar plan should
be adopted, says the department, for
the reclamation of this cast-off farm
equipment thru the agency of central
repair shops where the work could be
done. Many of the machines might
be made available for further service
with repairs of comparatively small
cost.
Added to the almost sinful care
lessness of some farmers there has
been the attitude on the part of farm
machinery manufacturers in years
past to favor the abandonment of
worn and disabled machines in order
to sell new ones; but now the time
has arrived when it is difficult to sup
ply the market with the necessary
new machinery. The department
suggests that representatives of the
on the one hand, and
of the farmers such as farm bureau
agents or county agents-on the other
hand, should get together to estab-
fish the necessary farm machinery re-
pair stations in convenient localities.
