Suggestions for Making « Hard Job Easy. i't- ft.,' If the face of the grindstone is hard ! iBttd glazed pour a little sand on the •tone every few minutes until the glaze is worn off and the stone will dnt like a new one. ,This condition Is caused by exposing the stone to the weather. I like to keep the stone in fc shed under cover, but if this is not possible set it under a tree and put a box over it when not in use. It is 1 'vl-T'l&^a (.••or..'. : Handy Grindstone Rig. ^fearprislng how easy a little oil on Hie bearings will make the stone run, yet some of my neighbors never think to ofl theirs. A few drops of kerosene will cut the gum if it ryms hard and then some oil or axle grease Ull make it go easy. It ig hard to stand on one foot and '-work the treadle with the other. This Job can be made easy, suggests a writer in Farm and Home, by bolting two boards to the grindstone frame, and extending it two feet, on which place a seat as shown in the cut. With a smooth and even face the grindstone works nicely, but when it becomes uneven it is hard work to do a good job of grinding. Such a stone needs to be cut down and toned up. This can be done by grinding against the end of a piece of pipe, having the •tone dry. There is nothing more exasperating than to try to work with a poor grindstoqe, but with a -good one it is a pleasure to keep the tools sharp. HELPS THE ROAD8. Experience of the Specialist at'Ne­ braska Experiment Station. The following from a recent issue of the Nebraska Farmer gives their experience with the road drag on the roads near the Nebraska experiment •totion: "A good proof of road dragging with split log drags was shown last winter during the long spell of deep muddy roads. The roads next to the farm have been dragged for the last four ' or five years, and comparing thetn with others it makes a very great con­ trast. While some of the other roads are, hardly dry, and a good many are rough and rutty the dragged roads have long become smooth and are as hard as brick. Even during very muddy weather the depth of mud on the dragged roads was slight com­ pared with that of the undragged roads. When a person drives over a road of this kind when muddy it is like driving on pavement with but one to two inches of mud while the un- worked roads sink to a depth of nine inches in places and also very heavy pulling, having no solid ground under the mud. A farmer who believes it does not pay to drag roads is badly mistaken. In eastern Nebraska it is Just beginning to become a practice. And the ones to introduce it there were the students of the school of agriculture." PLOWING DEEP OR SHALLOW. Much Depends on the Kind of Crop to Be Grown. Plow deep in the fall and shallow in the spring, is the advice of an Iowa professor of agriculture. We would amend this by suggesting that the crop you expect to raise on the land has something to do with it, as does also the length of time to elapse be­ fore the crop is sown or planted. Plowing deep for wheat is all right if the plowing is done in time so the soil will settle before seeding, but he who plows deep one week and drills in his wheat the next is courting failure. For English bluegrass, timothy or any such crop, it is a detriment to plow very deep. We have found this out through sad and costly experience. Deep plowing furnishes too loose a seed bed for any of this stuff, and it is m hundred times more apt to dry out or freeze out before the winter is over. Like a good many rules, the one re­ ferring to deep plowing in the fall should be practiced only after a full «i»h careful consideration of the field to be plowed and the crop to be sown. FARM JOTTING8. Give the sheep shelter from the s'tn. You can never improve a flock by us'ng a grade sire. Now is the time to select the best possible sire for the flock. 'The superiority of beef breeds Is largely in their early maturity. Well drained land will stand drought or freshet better than land that has not been drained. Wethers Intended for market should be put in a pasture by themselves, where they can be liberally fed. When ewes are gaining in condition •t mating time, there will be a large jwrcentage of twins and the lambs will Ij» stronger. The feeding of cotton seed mea! is not yet reduced to a science. Any man that undertakes it should avail ldmself of all extant information on tl» subject. FARMERS AND GOOD ROADS. The Latter Contribute to the perity of the Farmer. One of the factors contributing to the prosperity of the modern agricul­ tural community is a system of good public roads. This subject has bfeen discussed so frequently in the farm, daily and magazine press, that very, few are not conversant with its more important aspects. Every one must concede that the subject is important and its benefits to the agricultural and commercial worlds are self evident. Impetus is being given to the build* ing of rural highways, by the activi­ ties of the office of public roads con­ nected with the United States de­ partment of agriculture. Systematic work is being carried forward under the direction of this bureau and the influence of these federal endeavors has reached out into a number of the states. It was quite opportune that the gov* eminent undertook to foster the building of good roadways. Now, through the education received from national road experts and from the crying necessity for better means for wagon transportation of farm products to market a general demand for good permanent country highways has gon<a out from the agricultural classes. America has been exceedingly backward in developing a system of good public V-oads, but the time is at hand when farmers will not be com­ pelled to haul their grain and produce over ways covered with mire or filled with dangerous ruts. The general consensus of opinion regarding public roads, declares the Indiana Farmer, is that there should be a good, strong executive man at the head of a forceful commission dealing with the question. Twenty-one states in the union have such a commission with an active and competent civil engineer or some other skillful, practical man at its head. It will be noticed that these states are improving their highways and are making them permanent and durable. Prominent among the states thus applying business methods and scientific principles to road building are New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Ohio. The 17 other states are fol­ lowing suit very closely and good re­ sults are noticeable. Of course it will require many years before every sec­ tion in these states is immediately benefited, but it suffices that the work is well begun. DOE& YOUR BACK ACHE? AN OUTDOOR FURNACE. It Can Be Put to Many Uaes on Farm. the Build the furnace walls of brick and mortar. When three inches high lay iron strips crosswise four inches apart; this makes the grate. Build as high as you want the walls, finish- ing with a top from an oldtime heat­ er or a part of an old cook stove. Take For Washing or Canning. an old stove door for .the furnace door, suggests the Missouri Valley Farmer, leaving room for ventilation under the door. Use any kind of piping, but four or five-inch pipe is better than larger. Build the furnace in a shed or some other convenient place. A New Kerosene Emulsion. It is not a very delightful job tc make kerosene emulsion. Besides, be­ ing not the cleanest of work, it takes considerable time. The principal trou­ ble and annoyance is in dissolving the „oap and mixing it with kerosene. The Canadian Station has made a new dis­ covery which promises to make the work a great deal easier, says the Rural World. It is found that eight ounces of flour will hold in suspen­ sion a quart of kerosene. If the flour is scalded before the kerosene is add­ ed, two ounces have been found suffi­ cient to make an emulsion which will remain In suspension three days. It has also been found that when flour is used in making the emulsion there is not nearly so much danger of discolor­ ing the trees. Buy a Good Separator. When a separator is to be pur­ chased, see that it is a good one. There are many cheap and worthless machines on the market that will simply disgust the buyers when they come to use them. The separators ad­ vertised in the Farmers' Review are not of this class, but are of the class that will give satisfaction for many years to come. The buyer of a sep­ arator should remember that when a separator is offered him at a price far below what the regular companies can make tliem for, something must be the matter with it The matter is general!r that the cheap machine is manufactured at a very low cost out of poor material and lacks exactness in adjustment. Without that exact­ ness a separator is of no value. * '-•% Stringhott. • ^ Stringhalt is sometimes due to lo­ cal injury.

The far-sighted farmers are plan­ ning on having an abundanec of rough­ age for the cows next winter. With plenty of hay, corn fodder, nrUlet (al­ though millet is not an extra good feed to produce milk) straw, etc., sup­ plemented with a light grain ration, 11 the present high prices of grain pre­ vail, they will be able to make money out of their cows next winter.- The prevailing sentiment is in favor of more cows, and in this the farmer* are "wise in their day and geneis Profit by the Experience of One Who '• ?l*as Found Relief. Jaaes R. Keeler, retired Jf Fenner St., Cazenovia, N. Y., says "About fifteen years ago I suffered with my back and kidneys. I doctored and used many reme­ dies without getting relief. Beginning with Doan's Kidney Pills, I found relief from the first box, and two boxes restored me to good, sound condi- i tion. .My wife and many of my friends I have used Doan's Kidney Pills with I good results and I can earnestly rec- ! ommend them."

District Attorney Jerome, of New York, said one day of a piece of sus­ picious evidence: "It is evidence that has been tam­ pered with, colored. It is like the lady's report of her physician's pre­ scription. "A lady one day in July visited her physician. The man examined her and said: " 'Madam, you are only a little run down. You need frequent baths and plenty of fresh air, and I advise you to dress in the coolest, most comfortable clothes--nothing stiff or formal.' "When she got home her husband aBked her what the physician had said. The lady replied: " 'He said I must go to the seashore, do plenty of automobiling, and get some new summer gowns.'" She Experimented. A little girl of five was taken to church one Sunday, and listened with unexpected attention to the sermon, which graphically told the story of the stilling of the tempest on the Sea of Galilee, and how Christ walked on the waves. In the afternoon her moth­ er missed her and began an anxious search of the house. As she neared the bathroom she heard sounds of splashing, and hurried to the door, to behold, a small, excited face peering over the rim of the big white tub, and to hear a small, excited voice ex­ claim: "Say, mamma, this walking on the water is quite a trick." Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually peces- sary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wear­ ing quality of the goods. This trou­ ble can be entirely overcome by using Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its great­ er strength than other makes. Born, Not Worn, Little Margaret's grandmother had written for a photograph of her name­ sake, the "baby." For material rea­ sons it was advisable that the little girl should appear as well dressed as possible, and a cousin's new open-work dress was borrowed for the occasion On being arrayed for the picture Mar­ garet rushed to her father, crying: "Oh, father, just look! These ain't worn holes; they is born holes."--Har­ per's. Evil of Tipping System. Although there is a great effort made to keep secret the thefts in hotels and restaurants in New York, it is quite evident they are on a rapid Increase. The manager of a large restaurant says the system of having servants depend almost entirely upon patrons for their pay lowers their moral stan­ dard and causes them to look on those they are supposed to serve as their legitimate prey. A Base Insinuation. "I hear the Neweds have had a dreadful quarrel and that the bride is talking of going home to her moth­ er. What's the matter?" "I believe one evening she got the supper from her cooking Bchool recipes, and when the boyB in the neighborhood lost their ball in a hole under the fence, Mr. Newed gave them one of her biscuits to finish the game." "The Carthagenian mercenaries," he said, "encased their prisoners in a ce­ ment that, as it hardened, contracted. You can't imagine how uncomfortable this was." "Oh, yes, I can," she answered. "I once had on a tight bathing suit when it began to shrink." FEET OUT. She Had Curious Habits. When a person has to keep the feet out from under cover during the cold­ est nights in winter because of the heat and prickly sensation, it is time that coffee, which causes the trouble, be left off. There is no end to the nervous con­ ditio^ that coffee will produce. It shows in one way in one person and in another way in another. In this case the lady lived in S. Dak. She says: "I have had to lie awake half the night with my feet and limbs out of the bed on the coldest nights, and felt afraid to sleep for fear of catching cold. I had been troubled for years with twitching and jerking of the lower limbs, and for most of the time I have been unable to go to church or to lectures because of that awful feeling that I must keep on the move. "When it was brought to my atten­ tion that coffee caused so many ner­ vous diseases, I concluded to drop coffee and take Postum Food Coffee to see if my trouble was caused by coffee drinking. "I only drank one cup of coffee for breakfast but that was enough to do the business for me. When I quit it my troubles disappeared in an almost miraculous way. Now I have no more of the jerking and twitching and can sleep with any amount of bedding over me and sleep all night, in sound, peace­ ful rest.

Marion Crawford, the famous novelist: "Mr. Crawford went to school," he said, "in Concord, and one day he was taken to call at a Concord clergy­ man's. "The clergyman had a missionary box on Ws drawfitg room table, anfe, time hanging heavily on the boy's hands, he amused himself with try­ ing whether a silver dollar--it was all the money he had in the world, and he had converted it into that gi­ gantic coin for safety--would go into the slit in the box's top. "It was a close fit, but unfortunate- ly it did go, and the coin slipped o»ft of the embryo author's fingers. There was a terrible crash of silver falling among the coppers--and then the boy, as the novelists say, 'knew no more,' "When he came to himself he found the clergyman and his family in rap­ tures over his generosity." Why He Was Jolly, Bidder met Kidder, and Kidder was Just bubbling with good humor, "What are you feeling so uncom­ mon jolly over?" said Bidder. "Why, my best girl went and got married yesterday," said Kidder, slip­ ping Bidder on the back. "Seems to me that's about the last thing for a chap to feel jolly over," said Bidder. "What!" said Kidder. 'It "was me she went and got married to!" And so the cigars were on Bidder.-- Browning's Magazine. Sheer white goods, Z*. fact, any fine Wash goods when new, owe much of their attractiveness to the way they are laundered, this being done in a manner to enhance their textile beau­ ty.

Physicians Recommend Castoria ^ASTORIA has met "with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharma­ ceutical societies and medical authorities. It is used by" physicians with results most gratifying* The extended use of Castoria is Tmc^iestionaMy the result of three facts: *»*#--1The indisputable evidence that it is harmless: Second That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, bat assimi-' lates the food; It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil. It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic and does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, B a toman's Drops, Godfrey's •Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how­ ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end.
