The importance of storing all har- \ vesting tools and machinery after use is an ecoaomic factor still to be realized by a very large perccntaga of farnierd. Tviuch of this apathy on the part of ttie fartnef, towards the proper care and management of his ! farm equipment is due in a large , measure to the lack of appreciation : of the fact that tools and muohinea j cannot give majtiiuuiu of elHciency wh^n allowed to become coated with | dirt and rust. | The ilrst reQuisite in this direction i is to properly house them. This above all is the most impor- ' tant. It is needless to show the i rapid deterioration of steel, iron, j wood, canvas, or anything that goes j into the construction of farm ma- . chines, when they are out of doors i and exposed to the elements. Ot j course, the factors conaitioning their i life aud woriiiug efliciency are cor- , rosion of the metals entering into their construction, due to atmos- , pheric actioas; the disintegiation of I the paint and varnishes from the j same cause, and the deeay of the woadeu parl^ due to heat and luois- ' ture. There is, however, no reliable ' data available that will give us the i coetflclent oX corrosion, but every ' farmer is aware that the moldbcard ', of a plough subjected to dewy nights | or damp weather conditicus for a few nights will so rust the bright moldboard as to pit its surface that it requires several rounds ot the i i tield to bring; it back to good work- i I ing condition. Such a hard metal id ' undoubtedly luuch slower to corrode than eitho;- last er wrought iron. hence machines and tools left out exposed to all kiucis of weather, the bearings and workins parts of ma- chinery and ihe cutting edges of tools will become so badly affected with rust as to render new parts neces- sary in the machines and good grind- ing and honeing of the tools to put them in workable condition. The question of good and cfflcieat management of machinery is an im- portant one to the farmer if he only could be made to realize the amount of hard cash he loses through his indifference Hnd neglect of them. What farmer would not protest In vigorous terms if he were told when yurchasing his binder, say for 1150, that its life would be about thirty days â€" a competent authority esti- mates its average life to be twenty- four days used for six days in a year. Yet, through the same farmer'a car» lessness and Indifference, a machine built to last at least twenty years is reduced to, say at most. Qve years. At the pre9<>nt time iher« are many rsasons why farmers shotild tak* good care of their equipment. On* is th« actual shortage of tuachlnes. and the otiter the saving tn doUara in getting the must possible out of a machine before sending it to the Junk heap.â€" I'rof. John Stmm, O. A.
