He milks each night sixteen cows. Of course he does not do it in the old hand -way, and he (Ince not strip the cows or empty the heavy pails when they are filled. I wish to say something about this boy and the farm machinery which we have. We have used the mechani- cal milker four years. There seems to he a natural bent toward machinery in most boys. The first year we had the machine he became anxious to familiarize himself with the little triek of attaching the teat cupe. In a short time he could do it so quiekly as to cause some wonderneent on the Part of anyone who might observe him. From time to time we had vieitore at the barn, and I have allowed him to ,ehow there about the machine, and he always took particular pride hi -showing other boys haw "real milking is done." After school the eight-year- old boy as chosen his duty to oil the engine and the vacuum pump. The older one puts the machine together, gets the cows, and starts -the engine. When the engine hesitates, he has be- come so familiar with it that he is generally successful in starting it. He has but little trouble with the motors in the tops of the pails. If I am en- gaged in- field labor or am away, I positively have no reason to worry about the milking, and in fact, all other chores, and during haying and other rush seasons the -two boys have -milked alone and at those times there were seventeen cows. I have not asked the boys to do any particular work with a farm machine. I know when they are interested they will ask for the opportunity. I do not believe in. giving the boy the oldest to-ol on the farm to try out. I believe M giving him one that will work, and when he does meet with suecese he will be anxious to take hold again. Nothing succ.eeds like success is true in boy life. I had this brought home to me particularly ,this summer. We were using two mowers. The older boy asked to ride the one -which I was using.. It was giving some trouble When' the machine get partly wound the field the troubleedeveloped again. He was greatly worried, fearing he had caused the trouble. , When he changed to the new mower, and he observed how nicely it opetated, was quite enthusiastic over his work. I always believe in having a faxen ma- ehine baclepe•ndable condition to do its appointed task before it starts. I know from boyhood experience and from observation -that nothing will ds - ,gust a boy1110113with machinery than to be ecormelled to work with a ma- ehine that operates iMperfectly and requires tinkering. As the boy gets older he will become acquainted with, machinery, and such overhauling as may become necessary will not be so irksome to him, as when he is first learning. My boys have had a curiosity to in- vestigate gasoline engines, grinder, cutter, saw and -other machinery about, the farm, eithet operating, or stand- ing. This is true of all farm boys. have alevays tactfully told theni to. avoid belts, pulleys, and gearing, and, by example, not scolding, I have im-1 pressed the wisdom of care about farm' -machinery. However, I now recall in-: stances where their -carelessness might have caused considerable pain, and perhaps the loss of an arm. When the older boy was. about seven years old he was about the barn when I was cut- ting cornstalks, using engine and cut- ter. There was no elevator attach- ment, and as I was about to step to the! front of the machine to remove the cut evtalks he began pulling them out from under the machine and to brush them from the spout. He reached up so far that one of the blades caught: his mitten, tearing at off and cutting, it to pieces. The thought of the pos- sible -consequences now makes me shudder, and I continually watch where there is such element of danger. At another time when grinding feed the grain needed brushing into the bottom of the grinder when finishing the operation. I noticed my boy using his finger to clean it off a very narrow place on which it gathered. His fingers were dangerously near the crushers, meld thereafter I advised his using a -stick which would readily break if caught. I 'believe in giving boys freedom of a machine, yet I positively do not bet dieve in prematurel-y. rashing them headlong into mechanical work of which they are afraid. A boy should acquire his confidence in a machine and his abilities to handle' it gradu- ally. A pathetic incident -occurred a year ago when a boy was eo mangled by a tractor that he died. The incident ocourred not far from our home. He lead been driving. the family ear for some months,' He had driven the tractor a very little. When he started ,up the tractor, as near as I can learn, he beesime confused, tried jumping' from the machine and the tractor backed oher hi,s legs, We all know that farming is as dangermis sss railroading, And am giving the foregoing iustances par- tieplarly that we should bear in mind that boys 'should nbt be rushed into week, with farm machinery and un- reliable horses at any' age. Boys F..hould be impressed that above all they ehould, give attee:ition to pere.onal safety as well az to 'the efficient op- eration of machinery.— W., .3'. r o Dollars ilf inves ed at 3% will amount to $697.76 If invested at 4%, interest com- pounded quarterly, will , he two or three weeks, then hang -up amount to $744.26 in a cool, airy place.
