Oil Instead of Grease.

The car owner who is handy with
tools may find il profitable to re-
place number of the grease cups

the mechanism. by an oil reservoir
with leads running TO these various
parts. such for instance as the
thrust bearing or throwout collar
of the clutch. This oiler should be
constructed much like a mechanical

Pump Leakage.

When the water pump begins
leaking do not assume that neces-
sarily it is because the nut is too
loose. Frequently the nut is not to
blame at all. but poor packing is
the real cause of the trouble. Pack
ing for this part consists of candle
wick soaked in tallow, heavy twine
similarly treated or special packing
material. After the nut has been
turned to press the packing down
do not run it further as excessive
Squeezing is apt to damage some
part of the body of the pump.

The farm community" the de-

Kansas Roads Helped.
The popularity of the motor

Kansas. The campaign for ss5-day
roads is taking on new life. Re-

lowing description of the Broken
Hills property.
The vein 200 feet long i'll the Brok-
en- Hills mine has already been devel-
oped single handed by the discover
ers, Stratford and Arthur, at its
northern extremity, to depth Of $50
feet
This portion OF the vein has been
proved along it's strike for $50 feet by
underground workings.
For another $50 feet south from
these workings the vein has been de-
veloped to point where the vein us cut
off by fault and thrown westward to
a new undeveloped position on the pro-
perty.
In this faulted position. where it is
totally undeveloped, the ven can be
traced for 1900 feet further, or until
another fault cuts it off and throws it
again westward.
From the partially developed por-
ions OF the vein, which averages five
ieet in width down to the lowest level.
more than 400 tons OF high grade sill
yer ore, averaging 80 ounces OF silver
per ton have been extracted.
In these same workings and on the
dump at the main shaft more than
100000 in ore OF profitable grade
is already blocked out on three sides.
The ven from the lowest level up.
averages over $500 per ton as broken
in the mine without any sorting OF the
waste rock broken with it,
Only Traction OF the exposed vein
.outcroppings has been explored.
Where this has been done the vein in
the lowest workings has been proved
to be wider and as rich as Ut is nearer
the surface.
Strong silver sulphidc enrichment
at depth of 80 feet in the vein gives
every indication OF persistng to great
depths between strong vein walls
which are marked by the most pro
nounced evidences of deep seated ORR
gin
w lde areas III the hanging wall AUD
loot wall OF the vein are mineralized
at the surface in the form of shattered
lenses of ore that are measurable in
hundreds of feet and may mean, after
development underground, another in
stance OF masses OF lower grade ore
such as have been exposed in the late
sensational developments on the Com
stock Lode
The vein matter and country rock
strongly resemble that found with

The farmers institute held at the
Carpenter school, Christiania, was a
big success. The program was opened
at ii o'clock with music by the Hillside
community orchestra. Their music is
always appreciated by every one who
hears them. The entire district joins
in thanking them. Community singing
followed, Mrs. Joe Brenhaug presiding
at the piano. This was followed by
short talks by Miss Burnson, county
nurse, and Mr.. Vaughan, after which
orders were given for lunch. The peo-
pie were formed in line by Miss Wies-
man and the march proceeded to the
basement amidst community singing
directed by Mr.. Gust Owens. The
ladies of our district had prepared
delicious dinner consisting of scalloped
and creamed potatoes, fruit salads,
baked beans, pickles, cakes of all sizes
and descriptions, sandwiches and cof-
fee, every one being urged to eat more
than his capacity would allow. We are
proud of these ladies and the dinner
they served, for which we thank them.
After a general and ''confab" meet
ing, order was called by Miss w. Or
chestra music and community singing
followed. The next number was a
school society meeting conducted by the
school. A cooking demonstration and
poultry demonstration were given by
the 9Th grade. At this point we most
heartily thank Miss Greda Grain, our
teacher, for her untiring efforts in
drilling our 9th grade pupils, who are
to receive 20 per cent credit for this
work in agriculture. Sectional meet
ings were now in order. The ladies,
''of course" retaining first floor, were
given talks and demonstrations by the
lady speakers on care of the sick, cut
ting down the high cost of living, and
many other useful things. The men
were given the basement. Prof. James
johnson of Madison gave very inter-
esting lecture, illustrated by slides, on
tobacco diseases, root rot, rust, resist
ing types of tobacco, and his work in
general as he had been carrying it on
for the last years. The farmers are
very much interested in Mr.. Johnson,
for he is the man that gave the farm
ers the steaming pan. His talk was
followed by Mr.. Vaughan of the u. W.,
who talked on plant diseases, viz, oat
smut, wheat scab. He also demon
strated q machine for treating seed
grain. A petition was signed for two
days. farmers institute next year.
