PAINT WILL HELP MACHINERY
Certain Metal Parts Which Endure
Much Longer If Treated-Red
Stands Weather Fine.

Whether you store your machinery
or not, there are certain metal parts,
like rods, braces and other pieces,
which would endure longer and save
many a breakdown if paint were ap-
piled to them. A good barn paint will
do, and red is a color that stands the
weather fine. If another shade is de-
sired to harmonize with other parts or
not to be so conspicuous, this color
can be toned down o: changed. There
may be fine cracks in metal that
escape the eye, but they take in mois-
ture and rust forms in there. Paint
would cover them up safely. Freezing
helps to weaken such places when
unprotected.

CARE FOR ASPARAGUS BEDS
Cleaned of and Covered With Manure
Plant Starts off With Rush
in the Spring.

Asparagus starts off with rush in
spring If beds are carefully cleaned off
and covered with a heavy coat of
stable manure when winter sets in.
The plants will be protected from al
ternate freezing and thawing that
tends to lift the roots out and expose
them; and then, too, the nitrates from
the manure have time TO leach down
into the soil ready to be used in the
spring.

WHY WASHING INJURIES EGGS
Pores of Shell Are Sealed With Gelat-

to Dissolve It.

To retain the keeping qualities of
eggs. do not wash them. The pores
of the shell are sealed naturally with
q selatinous substance. Water seems
to dissolve this substance allowing

of the shell into the egg. Then de-
