Sharp (Marden Tools.
Where the .garden itself is not high-
ly esteemed, the tools will be poor as
a matter of course. But even people
who think a lot of their gardens are
sometimes very careless about the
condition of their tools.
The proverb says, "If the iron be
blunt, then must he put to it the more
strength." Sharp tools greatly econo-
mize strength, 1 find that sharp bright
tools that are tight to their handles
add to the enjoyment one has in his
work, To have a hoe slip readily
through the soil, doing a nice clean
job, contributes to one's self-respect
and makes him proud of the work he
is doing. If the hoes, spades, weed -
ere, and other tools are once put in
good shape, they can be easily kept
sharp by the occasional use of a file;
and with an old kitchen knife the
rusty places can be scraped clean so
that they will soon scour smooth.
By all means, let us furnish the
boys with good sharp tools and show
them how
theycan an be used to best
advantage and kept in order. Nothing
so depresses a boy and disgusts him
with gardening and farming as to be
compelled to use dull and unsuitable
tools.

The Horse's Collar,
When fitting a horse with a collm•,
ttc animal should be standing in a
a ura position on level ground, with
his head held at the height maintain-
eied while at work. The collar when
buckled should fit suugly to the side
of the neck, and its face should follow
closely and be in even contact with
the surface of the shoulders, from the
top of the withers to the region
of his throat. At the throat there
should be enough room for a man's
hand to be inserted inside the collar.
