Don't rely on eleventh hour repair service this
year. Overhaul machines and order repair parts
long time in advance of the season you expect to
the machines. Freight and express shipments move
slowly now, and because of increasing movements of
troops and Government supplies, they are likely to
move slower in the future.
Everything possible is being done by manufactur-
ers and the Government to assure the farmer of
pie repair parts. Nevertheless, he should take steps
to avoid inevitable delays by planning ahead. IL he
waits until the minute he needs them before ordering,
it may be impossible to get repair parts to- him In
time.
Order repair parts now even If you do not expect
to them for several months That is the only way
TO be and safe against the loss that you al

But the Turks were not as BAD as
Fritz. They were just as good or bet
ter. as fighters, and q whole lot winter.
Often. when we were frying in the
trenches and not q drop of water was
to be had, something would land on
the ground near us and there would be
a water bottle, full. Sometimes they
almost bombarded US with bottles.
Then. too, they would NOT fire on the
Red Cross, as the Germans do; they
would hold their fire many times when
we were out picking up our wounded.
Several times they dragged our wound
ed as close as they could to the barDed
wire that we might find them easier.
After Murray died got to thinking
a lot more than I used to, and though
I did not have any bunch exactly, still
I felt as though I might get it, too
which was something had never
thought much about before. I used to
think about my grandmother, too.
