' CARE AND ABUSE OF FARM MACHINERY Recent investigations by the Conservation Commission .reveal some very interesting facts r3- Standing.P the effect of care, or ne- glect. as the case may be, upon the life of machinery on the farm Between 90 and 95 farms, divided into three districts. were visited in each of the provinces of Manitoba. SaskatcheWan and Alberta In Saskatchewan. out of 94 farm-3 ers visited by the Commission’s representative. 76 leave all their implements out of doors On 73 of the farms there were no implement sheds of anv description On '21 of the farms. sheds large enough to cover a part of the implements were found, in most cases this be- ing only a buggy or a demo- but not on one single farm was the nnchinerv ail housed Not one. farmer was found who painted his implements to protect them from the Weather - In Manitoba only 14 out of 94 keep their machinery under covex: during winter. \thille 44 claim to keep a part of it inside On 34 of the Manitoba farms no provision whatever is made . for protecting implements. and only four claim to have done any painting In thethree districts visited in Alberta. mixed farming is carried on quite extensively, making more barn room available, so that im- plements are more likely to be protected, but even here, 37 out of the 92 visited leave all machinery out of doors. In one district in Ontario. where 40 farmers were Visited. chry mun housed his implements during win- tor. although none of these men do 1111': painting. In the Ontario district visited. where the implements are housvd. the average. life of the binder Was found to be between 16 and 17 vears.1\lam' binders \\ ere seen which \\ ere in good running order after cutting ‘20 seasons crops._ In Saskatchewan and Manitoba? where so much of the machinerv is'l left out of dooxs the 11V erage life of the binder is giV en by the fan n1-! ers as about" 1 years. VVhich is lessi than half that of the binder oro~| tected from the VV'.eath‘er Manv binders do not last as long as seven years. One farmer near Moosornin, Saska VVho. aftei 12' vears, VVas retiring from the farm: held an auction sale. His binder af- ter cutting 12 crops sold for $80 or 50 (per cent. of the original cost. and his other machinery at pro- portionately high prices. It had all been Well housed and the necessarV painting and repairing had been done to keep it in good order. On a neighboring farm a binder which had cut only three Icrops. but which had been neglect- 'ed and had stood out of doors. was being relegated to the scrap heap and a new one was being purchased. I . I l l An implement shed costs money but if its use will double or treble the length of time the machinery will last, it is a good investment. Farmers often say that they can not afford to build a shed. The truth is, they really cannot afford to be without one. Apart from the additional power necessary for operation. the depreciation on unhoused machinery on the aver- age sized farm is so great as to iamount to much more than the icost and upkeep of an implement shed. The binder works for only a short time during the year, while machinery in a shop works the . whole year through, and lasts pro- :portionately many times longer. It {is simplv a matter of care. The ilife of a machine extends in dir- ect ratio to the care it receives. and abuse and neglect \\ 111 sh01ten the life of any mechanism. The ' manufacturer is not responsible for ' the care of the machine1y after it is sold This rests entirely With the farmer. and as a common- flbusiness pr0position he should ; hok after his own interests suffi- . ciently to house his implements and thus save the thousands of dollars wasted annually in un- netessary depreciation. The Archdeacon mentioned the battle of Balaclava and the Charge of the Light Brigade, which, for 60 years had been an inspiration to British arms. He also pointed out that the Canadian militia had done good work in the past in suppressq ing several rebellions in Canada, and the Fenian Raid, but a love of pleasure and sports had been altogether too prevalent among the public, and it was time for an awakening. Canadian Trade Commissioner Harrison Watson reports that large orders for Woollen goods for the army are coming to Canada. The third evaporator, owned bv O. E. Robinson of Ingersoll, to be destroyed by fire this year, was burned Friday at Woodstock. The Methodist church, through Dr. S. D. Chown, has sent Sir Robt. Borden a strong protest against the Wet canteen at Salisbury. .The C. P. R. boat Athabasca went ashore at West Nebish, near the $00. and 50 tons of her cargo were removed before she could be taken off. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE.

It wiil be seen from the. {iii-egoâ€"E ine: that the British fleet is far. superior to the combined fleet of; its enemies. The French fleet in the Mediterranean was capabl.) of taking care of the Austrian fleet in that sea, and the British far-, flung cruisers swept the ocean clear of German merchantmen in the four quarters of the globe. The prescience of the Kaiser in cutting“- off Denmark by the construction of the Kiel canal and shortening as well as giving an additional waterway between the Baltic and the Atlantic is a wonderful piece of naval strategy, and had it not been for this. and the fortifica-zl tions of ‘Heligoland, behind which Lthe Germans can always find ref- The War, strange to say, is among countries of which the rulers are of close blood relation- ship. George V. of England is first cousin of Nicholas II. of Rus- sia. and both are cousins of Kai-a ser Wilhelm of Germany. and also cousins of King Albert of Belgium. Again, the Emperor, Frances Josef of Austria is a cousin of Alfonso XIII., King of Spain, whose sym- pathies are against Austria in the struggle. Blood relationship made no difâ€"' ference to the kaiser. who claimed to be the instrument of the Lord,. and to hold his position as ruler by divine right. He preached the need of war and prepared for it. but the time to strike had not arrived. Till that time came he managed to keep his nation at peace. When the time to him seemed ripe. he needed but little pretext to engage in the struggle. The plans were all ready. and the march was outlined. He counted on Italy’s allegiance. and "on Britâ€" ain’s neutrality. In short. his plan was. march on Paris. subdue France and exact a large war indemnity. All this could be done. according to his plans. and the German forces could be well on their way to the Russian frontier before the Russians would have time to collect their forces. The kaiser’s plans failed, and Belgium's jresistance at Liege caused a loss of time that meant failure at the outset. and will result. in the end. in Germanv being crushed. Lord Charles Beresford said in a speech recently that the most serious fighting would begin when the Germans were forced over the frontier and were in their own country with their own base of supplies. He predicted the War would not be a short one and would take more than six months or a year to put Emperor William on his back. No one knew what would happen in. the next great naval battle, in which modern in- struments of warfare would be {used The element of luck would bcome into play but luck or no luck, he declared Germany must be humbled and humiliated. She must lose the whole of her fleet, give up the Kiel canal and her colonies, her forts must be demolished, and the Krupp works: razed to the i The» annual meeting of the above‘ 2.32'society will be held in the Public! :Library on Tuesday, November 3.? “3' 11914. at 8 o’clock. p.m., for the es).
