?HAY DOOR EASY TO HANDLE Ono Shown In Illustration May Be operated by Boy Pulling at One of Ropes. We built a barn last fall, 50 by 48 feet, using two by sixes for studding on each, side of the opening left for the hay door, writes Ernest Siler of Wells, Kan., in the Farmers' Mail and Breeze, We made the door of cypress flooring and it is cut to flt the gable nf the roof. The track and rollers are known as the "Big Four" kind, the track being twice the length of the Latest in Hay Doors. opening left so the door will slide down out of the way. Two rollers are used on each side of the door. The door is raised and lowered by means of a rope passed over a well pulley on either side with a sand bucket attach ed to the lower end. The sand buckets work up and down inside the barn, the ropes passing through holes cut in the mow floor. Such a door looks neat when up or down and a boy can easily handle it by pulling at one of the ropes from the mow floor. ?STORING CROPS FOR WINTER Cellar Should Be Carefully Cleaned and All Defects in Walls Mado Tight With Mortar. (By WALTER B. LEUTZ.) Have the cellar carefully cleaned be t?re storing away any of the winter supply. If there are defects in the wall make them tight with mortar. If the windows arc loose, repair them. These little things may be the means of saving the entire contents of the cellar. Il the potatoes incline to rot, sort carefully and put in no questionable specimens. Dust the seemingly per fect ones with lime. If the winter squashes are picked before they become fully ripe they Will be much more apt to mold and rot. Make the cabbage heads which in cline to burst into kraut. If you fear trouble in keeping it cook part and put into cans, sealing with paraffin. The solid heads need not be put into the cellar until November, but may be left growing. Do not despise the small beets, tur nips and apples. The stock will need them if you do not. And it is aston ishing how much stuff of this kind chickens require to keep them at their best. Give them the parings now and save the small fruit or vegetables for jwinter use. If you have more stuff than you need and it is not of sufficiently good quality to offer for sale, perhaps some neighbor could use it to advantage. Many a poor man is glad to get even the culls and windfalls from a large orchard-and the latter is the better *or their removal. ?METAL POST IS SUBSTANTIAL invention of New York Man Provides j ; Firmer Hold in Hoie-Wires !

Holland Bros., Greenwood, S. C. Gentlemen:-At the time I bouggt a Royal piano from you about 18 months ago, I had another well known make of piano in my house, for which the agent asked $350. I offered him my check for $275 and he said that he would lose his job if he cut the price. After examing both the Royal Piano and the other one, 1 found that the case of the Royal was better finished and that the wood used in the back of tfye instrument was thoroughly seasoned, while in the other piano it showed signs of wind shakes and other defects. I could tell the tone of the Royal piano from the other one when ? was in the back yard and every one that saw it pronounced it a much sweeter toned piano than the other one, which the dealer $350. I am much pleased with the piano in every respect and can most heartily recommend them to any one. Yours very truly, J. P. Sullivan. HOLLAND BROS., Greenwood, S. C.
