Here is something from an exchange that deserves to be passed along : "What would a farmer say if his wife left her sewing machine standing out in the back yard in, a rain storm over night ? What he really would say is out of the question for printer's copy and yet many farmers leave their bin- ders, which cost three or four times as much as a sewing machine, out in the sun and rain for weeks and months with no better shelter than. a fence corner Nor is the binder the only piece of costly machinery that re- ceives such treatment. In such in- stances Mr. Farmer, what should your wife do to you? A timely ap- ?plication of the rolling pin might do much towards prolonging the life and efficiency of your farm machinery.

This period is at the centre of Earth's autumnal equi- nox. The Vulcan, Mercury ,Earth and Jupiter disturbances will combine their forces to this period. Equinoctial storm, of wide sweep and violent force are more than probable ,at this ante,. A correct interpretation of barometric readings will foreshadow. the nature of approaching storms, 'ong before they strike. Boreal storms from the northwest, will meet tropical storms from the equatorial regions at this time resulting in tornadie storms ,over central to southern states and change to higher barometer, very much cooler and frosts will, result in ninny states as a sequel to these equi- noctial convulsions. A reactionary storm period is central on the 75th 26th and 27th. This period is at the centre ,of the Mercury period, and at the culminating crisis of the autum- nal equinox of the earth, There are sttone probabilities of a spell of threatening stormy weather extending over several days, a.ncl perhaps filling the gap between, the regular storm period?, immediately before and after these dates. We calculate that equa- torial or equinoctial • storms and hur- ricanes will be more numerous and more severe during this autumnal per- iod than common. There will be dan- ger of rosts at night in. the high barometer areas that follow on the heels of storm areas, and the dan- ger of frosts at these, times will be in proportion to the lowness of bar- ometer readings attending the storms Mail Contract SEALED TENDERS ADDRESS N.D to the Postmaster General will bere- ceived at Ottawa until Noon, on Fri- day the 17 th day of October,. 1913, for the conveyance of His Majesty's Mails on a proposed Contract for four years six times per week, over Dash- wood (Khiva and Mt, Carmel) Rural Route from the Postmaster General's pleasure next.
