A. QUEER REPUBLIC.
Accidentally Discovered in the
Czar's Dominion.
A year ago a Russian traveller,
Kasimir Veliki by name, during a
journey through Siberia, accident-
ally stumbled on the Village of
Imanek, containing about 1.000
houses and many farms. The town
lies about 300 miles from Vladivo-
stock, but is not marked on any
map.
Veliki was seized and made pris-
oner. Bya stroke luck,leer,

The tentacle arms of the vest es-

like on all sides. Two thousand
trucks and over fifty locomotives
rush along these tracks daily, con-
veying Germany's guns, armor -
plates, ammunition and shells to
German garrisons, forts, ports and
harbors. Six thousand tons of coal,
coke and briquettes are poured
daily into the huge creature's capa-
cious jaws. One and a quarter mil-
lion tons of fuel are required an-
nually to appease its insatiable ap-

Krupp's is admirably organized
from a business point of view for
the purposes it serves. To begin
with, it is really, if not nominally,
in the hands of a single individual.
When it was turned into a company
in 1903 the sole "vendor" was
Fraulein Krupp, rho founder of the
firm. The value of the entire un-

The poet Wordsworth used to
compose in bed at night. Nudging
his wife in the small hours he would
say : "Maria, get up. I've thought
of a good word." And Mrs. Words-
worth would rise sleepily, light a
candle and write at her husband's
dictation for ten or fifteen minutes.
A couple of hours later Words-
worth would wake her again. "Get
up, Maria. I've got a good word,"
he would repeat. But one night
Mrs. Wordsworth put a shop forever
to his nocturnal dictation. Her
husband, awakening her with the
usual, "Get up—I've thought of a
good word," was startled by her re-
ply ; "Oh, get up yourself 1 I've
thought of a bad word."

Concrete walks
a
need no repairs
'tHEY are not only best at first but
are cheaper in the end than any
other kind of walk. They are clean,
permanent and safe. There is no-
thing to become loose nor are they slip-
pery. They improve the general 3,p-
pearance of a house and pre a source of
great satisfaction to every housewife be-
cause they keep children out of the
mud, prevent,colds from wet feet and prevent dirt
from being tracked in on floors and carpets.
Equally important is the fact that they Bever wear
out and never need repairs.
•
This free book "What the Farmer can do with
Concrete" tells all about concrete walks and how
to build them, and a score of other things needed
one every faun. Witite fon it to -day.

Taking Care of Farm Machinery.
In travelling over the country,
the ordinary observer is unfavor-
ably impressed with the methods
now in use by many farmers for
taking care of their machinery, As
a general rule, the prosperity of a
farmer may bo estimated by the
way ho cares for hie machinery,
Poem ears indicates shitelesanese,
waste, lack of energy and the ne-
nessity of buying more machinery
in a short time. Good care, on the
other hand, indicatee prospervty,
development, bank deposits and
long-lived machinery.
Properly to care for the farm im.
plements means that they [oust be
well selected, kept in good repair
and adjustment, oiled thoroughly,
ele.aned before housing, and have
all wearing parts well greased when
not in use and painted w'hen•neoas•
sary, and must he properly housed.
To neglect any of the lines of care
I mentioned means serious damage
'and loss to the machinery.
! There is no question but that to
house machinery properly ie a great
saving, as it not only adds a great
deal to the life of the machinery,
but it also adds to the general ap-
pearance of the farm. It is gener-
ally found that where a farmer is
interested enough in his tools pro-
perly to house them, he is interest+
ed enough in them to care for them
otherwise,
To house maohinery does nob
mean merely to put it in 80020 tum-
ble-down, leaky shed or combined
m010111ne shed and hen roost.
A great deal of machinery can be
placed in a small space if properly
arranged. At the time of storing
it the machinery should be placed
in the shed according to the time it
will have to be removed. The ma-
chinery that will be used late in the
season should be placed in the batik
of the shed and that which..is to be
used early in the season should be
placed in front. In this way it will
not be necessary to remove a great
deal of machinery in order to get
what is needed first.
Do not forget that the implements
and machines on the farm represent
an investment and that when ex-
posed to the weather they deterior-
ate rapidly, thus making the op -
keep and original cost a heavier
charge against the equipment. Dew,
rain and sunshine may cause great-
er deterioration in expeneivo im-
plemente than ordinary use. To
leave The implements not the end of
the rows or in the field without any
shelter means great lose. No pro-
gressive farmer can afford it.
Binders, mowers, hay prem00s,
traders, silage cutters and other
machines represent considerable
capital, and it is economy to ,111elteT
and case for them when not in use.
A toolshed costs little compared to
the risk of protecting the imple-
ments. The shed is really insurance
upon the implements from sun,
rain and rust.
Even the small tools, such as
single, stocks, shovels, sweeps,
hoes, spades, double shovels and
cultivators need shelter. And thers_.
is another .advantage besides the
lees in deterioration; that is, in
saving time. When the 1m -elements,
Inege and small, are always left in
the 'tnolhoese the hand lcnnwe where
to find them and does not lose time
hunting for the wrench, the shovels,
the sweeps, the oilcan or the 'gar-
den plow. -
Farmyard Manure.
Remember that the. oonsti'tuentas
of animal excrements are in the
condition of greatest values ars man•
ure at the time when they leave the
anima{«' after mixing with
the
litter and piled in the barnyard
their value is greatly reduced,
During the fermentation of the
manure with the straw and refuse
of the stable and barnyard, the
constituents enter into new com-
bination, The amluonie produced;
which contains the nitrogen, tom -
hind with the lnunic acids formed'
from the demi-Teeing littor, form-
ing insoluble compound&. Thus
they aro not so quickly available
to the plants as the original excre-
ment.
There are also various 148504 in
quantity which the-.00nstituentzs
may suffer before they reach the,
land. In the yard much urine may
run to waste. Ammonia' will dis-
appear as gas in the stable during
the decomposition of the urine, and
further loss of nibrogen may occur
in the•barnyard.
Clean Seed.
No farmer can gob anyone to take
the same pains in grading his
seed that he would himself. Some
farmer" claim that it deice not pay
to clean gtain.
All grain crops can be improved
by grading the 'seed, so that only
good, pinntp, ho'altlly grains; free
from' all foul weed seeds may be
sown.
The fanning mill judiciously used
will do muoh to increase the yield
of every 1snap grain crop and as-
sist in keeping our riolda flee from
nexiatre woods,
It will take cockle out of Wheat,
Intekther,1, plaletaie out .0 clover:
ill fact, int can be adjusted wag to
.1ancile rill kinds. end weed leech.
