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.
You can save a ten, dollar bill;' any day

tion"

HICKS' SEPTEMBER FORECAST
-A regular storm period involves the
17th to the 22nd. 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
