is through with It's job: These two
pieces of machinery represent a more

expensive. They should receive good
care In order that they may be in
good working order for another year.
All dirty bearings should be well
cleaned and polished and then given
a heavy coat of oil or grease so that
they will not rust. The sickles should
be removed and stored In a dry place
after having been given a good over

chimes should be well inspected and
any repairs should be ordered now. 1t
is much easier for a man to recall

machine will be in working order next
