How Did Pioneers
Fashion Tools for
Use on the Farms?

The modern Wayne county farmer,
sitting on his tractor which easily
pulls along a three-bottom plow, and
threshing, harvesting and planting by
the aid of machinery, can hardly real
lie that within the span of the lives
OF two men. in Wayne, most progress
sive of farming counties, tools not
much better than those of the an
clients were used.
The first harrows used in the county
after settlers came, consisted of
6undle of brush cut from a tree-top
which was used TO brush in the seed,
or little later, by the old fashioned
triangular harrow. The pillow had an
iron coulter, but the mold-board was
often cut out of a simple piece of
curved timber. Many a plowman's
legs were bruised by roots in the new
ground, springing back after the pillow
bent them forward.
In harvesting, the sickle was the
standard tool, the cradle, now as Oh
solete as the sickle, not even yet be-
ing invented. On many an old account
book of the county appears the words:
ITO one SICKLE and ITO one gallon
whisky" The two were inseparable
companions then.
/. Grain was thrashed with a fia1,
which consisted of hickory sapling,
roasted in the fire. so that one end
could be bent. Another way of max
ing a fail was to take two sticks, one
about five feet long and the other
about two, and tie the two together
A coarse sieve, called riddle, =
about 80 inches in diameter, was used
to separate the chaff and wheat The
mixture was shaken through the rid
die" and a tow sheet, swung by two
men, created a current of air, which
carried away the light .ehaff, but let
the grain fall straight down. Wheat
was also tramped out by horses.

Dinner Stories

So, y'see," explained the bookie, "if
the horse starts at 20 to ] you get
twenty dollars and yer own back; 10
to l, ten dollars and yer own back.
Now dy' understand
"Oh, yes" piped Clarence, Il quite
see that; but suppose the horse starts
at quarter to 1, what do get them"
Speaking at political meeting, Con,
gresham Allen T. Treadway, of Mas
sachusetts, referred to war time econ
omy and related this little anecdote:
One afternoon a man went into a
restaurant and selected an Irish stew
from the bill of fare Soon the dish
was placed before him, and after Civ,
ing it critical glance he removed
his coat, then his vest and then his
collar and neektie.
What in the world are you trying
to do, mister?" demanded the Won
dering waiter, as the patron reached
down to unite his shoes. This isn't
bedtime"
"A casual glance, young man" re-
sponded the patron, should suffice to
show YOU that l am removing my
clothes"
"But-but," objected the waiter
you can't remove your clothes IN
here
Il can't swim with them on" an.
swered the patron, pointing to the
stew, land swim l must in order to
reach yonder tiny island of meat"

Editor. The Palladium: ts
My attention has been called to
your report of the county commission
ers' meeting held May 3.
In your report occurs the following:
THE question of transporting labor
down and back, while paying the work
men for free ride of an hour or so
each way, was mentioned
That, | suppose, refers to the work
men at the tuberculosis farm, although
it is less than half hours ride from
town.
At present the workmen are not
having free ride OF an hour or 50
each way or either way
One workman wanted to ride home
on the county's time and Was told in
plain language if he could get a job
of that kind to go to it.
We leave Richmond at 80 a. M,
and are on the job at work al a. m,
same day. We work until 11:30; one
noon, and quit at 5:25- giving us five
minutes to get started home
If anybody begrudges us that five
minutes, | will be glad to give him a
job and work him the full ten hours
The county is paying the laborers
30 cents per hour for the time they
are working. The only free ride they
get is in case of tire trouble, when we
are delayed in getting on the job, as
has happened two or three times in
the two months the job has run.
That it is not soft snap is proven
by the fact that of the eight or nine
men who have started on the job only
two remain to tell the story Some
stayed only one day and some have
better jobs at higher wages.
Very respectfully,
(Signed)

Deep Seated Uric Acid Deposits Are
Dissolved and the Rheumatic Poison
Starts to Leave the System Within
Twenty-four Hours.
Every druggist in this county is
authorized to say to every rheumatic
sufferer in this vicinity that if two
bottles of Allenrhu, the sure conquerer
of rheumatism, does not stop all agony,
reduce swollen joints and do away
with even the slightest twinge of rheu-
matte pain. he will gladly return your
money without comment
Allenrhu has been tried and tested
for years, and really marvellous results
have been accomplished in the most
severe cases where the suffering and
agony was intense and piteous and
where the patient was helpless
Allenrhu relieves at once Immedi-
ately after you start to take it the
good work begins. 1t searches out the
uric acid deposits, disso1yes the secre-
tons and drives rheumatic poison out
of the body through the kidneys and
bowels
It's marvellous how quickly it acts.
Blessed relief often comes in two days
and even in cases where the suffering
is most painful all traces disappear in
a few days.
Mr. James H. Allen, the discovereT
Of Allenrhu, who for many years suf-
fered the torments of acute rheuma-
tism, desires all sufferers to know that
he does not want cent Of anyore's
money unless Allenrhu decisively ron-
quers this worst of all diseases, and
he has instructed all druggists to guar
antee it in every instance.-Adv.
