Farm Implement Dealer Sells | More Than Hoes, Rakes, Scythes BY R. §. ALEXANDER Are you fond of! machinery? Do you like the country? And do you want to figure some way to put the two lements ? It used to be that when a farmer had a hoe, rake, 3 scythe, and a wheat cradle he had all the todls he needed. But that time is past. Machinery is now required on the farm just as any- where else and more is being invent and used all the time. A young man who embarks in the farm implement business will find that he has gone into a rapidly developing business. Before you start as a farm imple- first of all. You should know farm ma- chinery. There are two ways to get this knowledge. You may werk in a factory which makes farm implements. There you will get experience in mak-' ing the implements which you will later Then you should know Something about business methods. A lot hardware merchantd fail because they do not kftow how to run their business efficiently. Of course, you will have to learn a good deal of this end of it from actual experience running a busi- hess: But it is a good idea to know jomething about it before you start. Your business is apt fo be much healthier. You can get a knowledge of business methods and of machinery at the same time a job with some successful J pein dealer and either selling or handling machinery. Last but not least you should know something about farm You can't tell what kind of a machine to sell a man or what arguments to Se in ying to sell it unless you know the he has to solye and the sort o pits he is liable to want. You will get along better with the farmer if Jou at are able to talk to him in his own Jaiguage. This knowledge you ought to be able to pick ip in a coupl an up-to-date farm.

One day as Willy Bee winked his merry way over the meadow he spied Miss Lady Snail sitting on the ground with a funny expression on her funny face. Willy Bee tilted himself on a flow- er nearby and tipped his tiny cap. "Good-morning, Miss Lady Snail," buzzed merrily. "Pray, why the ber look on your face this wonder- ful sunshiny day?" 5 "1 was just wondering," replied Miss Lady Snail, without looking up, "why some folks dress one way and sou + 8 folks dress other ways." ell!" exclaimed Billy Bee, "that's a crazy thing to bother one's head on such a wonderful day. 1 know I'm not dressed so gayly as Mr. Butterfly yonder, but that never 'bothers me one bit.

Not Dame Convent. t An Autobiography of A Loaf of Bread This has certainly been an event ful life. As many experiences as I have had, there was none so painful as this last one, that of being baked. The first thing I remember is when I was trying to face my way through the earth. I could feel some- thing very warm from above, but did not know what it was. I kept coming up through the earth until at last I came up and saw the bright sun above me and other little green plants on all sides of me. The world around me was beautiful. I contipu~ ed to grow for many weeks in th rain and sunshine. One day there was a great storm and nearly all the grain was blown over, but we soon stood up again when the sun came out. After I had sent out little seeds of grain they began to get ripe. Not long after I heard a man come to the field with his son Jim. "The grain is ripe now" he'said "Tomorrow you shall come and cut it, and. we will take it. into the barn soon." The next day we heard a clattering noise coming up the lane. We looked all around to see"what it meant. We soon saw that a binder was being brought into the field drawn by three horses. Jim was driving and he kept this great noisy machine going up and down the rows and cutting down the wheat. What a painful experience it was! This machine cut down the grain and tied us in bundles, and dropped us on the ground again, We were tied up: so tight, I thought I would never live for another day. When he had finished cutting the grain he came and shocked it up all around the field. Here we stayed for a few days and were then put on large wagons and taken into the barn. It was not long after that we heard great contugion outside the barr door. We 'wondered what all the noise meant and why they were do- ing so much talking outside.: We were not in anixety very long, for the barn door was soon opened and to our surprise a great machine which we had never seen before was * brought into the barn. This wis the threshing machine. We would soon have much more suffering to endure, and waited in horror for the time to come when we would be thrown into the machine. The engine was started and it made so much noise that we could hear nothing else. We were thrown into the machine and the grain was separated from the straw and sent through the machine so quickly that I hardly knew what hap- pened except that it was very pain- ful. The grain was all carried into the granary. We were soon put into sacks and taken to the mill Here we were ground into flour. This was a very painful experience and I theught it was the last of me and we were very fsightened. After we were ground into flour we were put into bags to the be sold. Ons day 1 heard a man come in and say 'seven hundredweight of Reindeer flour for Mr. Wright." Im- mediately we were loaded onto a Snail. "Willy Grasshopper sees everything that passes on the road, and Johnny Grassliopper- keeps tabs on the doings of the meadow folks. I always imagined they were a nosey set."' "Is that so?" chirped a merry voice, and Johnny Grasshopper himg- self hopped from among the grasses and settled on a leaf near Miss Lady Snail and Willy Bee. He had been sitting in the grass quite near them all the time, but his little green suit was so much the color of the grass that neither had noticed him sitting there. "You're both wrong as to my cousin and mysel," he laughed. "I wear green because I do make my home in the meadow grass. It's a protection against my enemies. For the same reason, my cousin wears "OUCH! CORNS!

I wonder what she will tell us about to-day. hardly wait for the paper out." "1 saw several of her books in the brary the other day," said Betty's mother. ""T'wo of them were 'Boy's Make-at-Home Things' and 'Girl's Make-at-Home Things. An- other was 'Boys and Girls 'of Colonial Days.

She was | there at dawn and at dusk, digging, | Planting, and weeding. The Sunbon- | y raised vegetables and plants for sale to the town people. Cut flow- ers, too, were a specialty of hers. Through the fence could be seen eggplant, celery, sweet tatoes, and many other good things that could not be found in other gardens around the town. At the far end of the big lot were oblong frames covered with glass, These were the greenhouses where let. tuce, cdcumbers, radishes, tomatoes, etc, were cultivated. The Pink Sunbonnet Lady knew her business. When the Great War was waging, she had been a farmerette. On a huge farm, she had "done her bit" She had pitched hay in the fields, usked corn, driven teams and gar- deed for $3.00 a day. After the war was over she went to an agricultural college and studied | market gardening. She took up this phase of agriculture because it .is the type of farm work for which woman is best fitted. She can do almost all of the actual labor herself. She can start into business with a small cap- ital. Furthermore, the soil can be used two og three times a season to pro- duce such vegetables as lettuce, rad- ishes and onions. 'There are really three possibilities open to the farmerette; one is to hire out on a farm and thereby get the actual experience; another is to third is to install a large one ottside Abe city within marketing distance. The "latter plan is to be discouraged pnless the owner has had wide experience and success ; because a big plant de- mands one's being out in all kinds of weather and doing all kinds of heavy work, A woman would be helpless if left without labor. The Pink Sunbohnet AR was mak-" ing the ight start. All managers 'of large market gardens were manager, of small onés first.
