poor Way to Treat Valuable Machinery

used must be carefully cleaned, kero
sene oil being literally applied to all
parts exposed to the fertilizer. Binder
canvases should be hung up by wire
to prevent damage from mice.
Liberal use of paint is the next step
in keeping machinery in the best con-
dition. OF course all parts must be
freed from dirt and grease. Then
paint the wood with a good grade of
paint pigment mixed with linseed oil
All metal parts, except those creased
must be well covered with the best
metal paint; this applies especially to
steel parts.
Note Parts Needing Repairs.
When the cleaning, greasing and
painting is being done, one can also
make note of each broken or worn
part that needs to be replaced. These
can be secured during the winter and
when the spring and summer work
calls for the various implements, they
will be ready for duty. How much
more satisfactory than to be COM
PEELED to sacrifice a day or more for
repairing at a time when the machine
is needed most! Any farmer who has
followed the above suggestions will
gladly affirm that dollars are thus
saved on each and every implement.
Try it and you will heartily agree.

Patrons of public schools were
saved several hundred thousand dol
lars by the action of the state board
of education Thursday in readopting
for one year the text books used In
the public school system. according
to the statement of the board. Mem
bers of the committee believe this
saving will reach 100000 and may
go to Sl,500,000.
A greater price will be paid for text
books at the beginning of the new
school term than has been paid in
the past for books on which the con-
tracts have expired, but the board
of education became convinced that
this increase will not be as great as
the amount which would have been
exacted had there been general
adoption and a general casting aside
of the books now in use in the pub
lie schools. THE prices quoted on
books offered to the text book com
mittee were Staggering" said Charles
