Witii the eotpitvg of imfvrove4 mA- cblnery tbe problem of what, to luy imd whnt to get alons wlthont lias be come a serious one. The farnrer ins more money tied up In machinery than in any one thing beside* bis land. Having too much machinery Is nearly as bad us having too little. What la ’'heeded Is a w ise sclecUou. \lt Is alvvaya well to do a little figur- IiiV before buying a new machine. Di- vitilng the cont cf the Implement by tin* number of years It may be reason- hbly ex.no-ted to last w ill give the amount that must be charged to de preciation each year. Add to this an fiiir.wunea for repairs, storage and each year’s share of Hie interest, aud y u will have the ycatly cost of the machine. A little further figuring will show whether the benefit received from It in a year will warrant tliks cost. Machinery may be roughly divided into five classes tillage, planting, hay ing. harvesilrg and miscellaneous. Of the many tillage implements there are snrae that rrrt* ahs-'lutciy necessary o?i any fiirm. Among these are the plows * IV r the farmer <*n a quarter reotlou a | It net type of furrow oi»ener u prefer able to tbe disk, since the latter is laird lo guide. Tbe essential point in planters, Iiojverer.

ITant- efs Ih vvhtrH the iitntes are turned by a chain from the axle and the wire uAed only to open the shoe ate surer to drop every titne than those in which all the work is done by the w Ire. There ere two baying implements that ere absolutely essential, the mow er and the rake. Be sure to 1 Irk a wide cut mower. Six feet i* a good w idth, 'i he extxik, draft amounts to Lttle, nt.d considerable time will be saved fn going over the field. \v Lore much tny Is made the old way of raking in bunches and pit h- ing it < u to the wagon by lined Is too rluvv and la bo rions. A much better than is to rake the hay into windrows with a side delivery rake nud gather It t:p with a hay loader. Where the hay is put in the iinni a set of double harpoon forks vvill make short work of the unloading. If It Is to be stacked some form of stat kor will save n great den! of herd work. The most important harvesting ma chine is the self binder.

No other ma- ' eldno will fiulverl/o the S'lil so qtitcW- j !y or thoroughly. The use of a toiigno truck a small two wheeled arrange ment under the rear cod of tlie tongue is cf considerable advantage 1 hi taking tbe weight off the horses' j necks.

A tongue truck is an attachment that should go with every binder. This is the only moans of eliminating side draft Unit has yof been discovered. A tongue truck is rather expensive, hut m> are sore rhoulihTs and necks on the horses «t harvest time. Where much stock Is kept the corn birder Is a necessary Implement. By flitting a large share cf the cern and using It as fodder or silnge Tiun h f"id is saved that wor.’d otherwise be wast ed. About -P* per end of the entire feeding value of th" corn plant is in the stalk. When these are left stand ing in the field the greater i art i f Ihir, find Is wasted.

One of the most imp.mtnnt of the nilsi ellanootts Implement* I* the wind mb!.

The engine will nl»o saw void. If you are fortunate em'n; h tu have any to saw, run the slinffe cutler, grindstone, separator, ( hnrn and washing machltio. It may nlvo replace the windmill as a source of power for pumping. In selecting a gn-uline engine I <> sure to get one large em ugh to do tlie fcipiircd v.iii'k easily, reirosmlicring at tin* same time that w here rmn li light Work bs to t e done n fmirrtt engirre -j w ill do it w ith mart) less gasoline f than will be. used by a large. vuie.
